Building a set from only the pictures is also a good one. On a similar vein, plain 2x4 bricks and a request for the teams to build a certain thing from those bricks. Like a Dog, or a head or something. They have to work together in turning small rectangles into something that is not known to be rectangular. It does need plenty of plain bricks though.

Well, what use is a planet where you can't distil anything? At least let there be something to ferment in this galaxy! Well, back to the axle for some drinks. Someone told me that Skipper pilots get a few rounds from the EVA guys...

"Well sod." Tesni looked around. The noises of steel working and also carousing caught her ear. "The Smithy before the pub." She stumbled into town, well recalling a shopping spree after a drinking session that had not been of the wisest investments. Yes, a good bit of iron working and then a drink was just the ticket.

Thank you. It is most relaxing to "cultivate" some LEGO flora and the results here were most pleasing. I am afraid I am a little guilty of using this as a chance to show off my transparent coloured flowers too though.

Cade here; any need for another supply run? Though I have to say, the techs I knew back in the day had their own distillery up and running before the water purifier... Heck, sometimes in place of it! What is the University of Octan teaching these days? Tch...

American prices are always excellent in comparison to European and UK prices. To be competitive in the US there is a price cut.

---Comm. Pilot Cade Channel 005--- Well, this little mite is a strange one for a space-jockey like me. Not Sure I like these touchscreen control panels you've installed. Stick and yoke gives a better feel. Can't say I'd be glad to play with this one in-atmosphere, though it seems okay for playing sheepdog up here in orbit. Just how many EVA Techs do you expect to need rescuing for one threading operation? *BsSSzzZZt* Spoke too soon, there goes one, off to experience the vastness of space 'twere not for me. ---Comm. Close--- The Skipper class space skid/cruiser was designed for traffic operations between orbital stations situated above Octan assets. They ran cargo and crew-coach pods until the permanent orbital ring-transit system was put in place. Once assets grew in number well beyond the scope of each needing such dedicated installations as a Ringworld, these smaller craft were used in conjunction with the EVA teams who work in the construction of the Space Elevators on the orbital end of things. Running around the station much like a sheepdog around a herd of sheep, the craft fetch any EVA Tech who comes loose from their tether and brings them back to station. A vital safety feature and lifesaver on many occasions, any pilot who does a stint on a Skipper never wants for a drink at any bar with an EVA Tech. Octan has had to regulate the replication of service patches and pins as some ne'er do wells were using falsified Skipper service badges for free libations. -*- Just another little craft I put together. At first I put in wings, but once I decided it was for orbit only I scrapped the out of place feature to keep the lines cleaner. The 5 here now designates the asset number instead of the racing number it began life as.

Tesni blinked, she was sure there had been lingering effects from a smack to the head or something...

Agent Hill. Too bad my brother-in-law guards his Helicarrier well...

Okay. Rookie875. Here is a warning to stay on topic and keep to the topic. That topic being the discussion of 2015 Marvel LEGO sets. Custom figures go in the Minifig Customisation Workshop forum, Marvel MOCs you create can have their own brand new thread here in Licensed Themes. There is a whole area for New Members (accessible before you reach 10 posts) that help you use the forum correctly. Otherwise there are links to tutorials and FAQs in my signature line or to be found in the Forum Information and Help section of the site. All you others who are derailing the thread too? You're on the radar also. Please behave. Staff are keeping watch.

Water, the stuff of life. Arium Major is a vast sphere of water but rocks, the tips of gargantuan mountains, breach the waves. Where there is land there is life. A seed pod of a hardy tree floats upon the surface until such a time it makes land, any sort of land. It can take root even in the hardest of rock and reach up to the skies and sunlight, verdant green leaves burst forth and delicate crystal flowers bloom. Roots that find space limited as the tree grows will travel across voids, probing to find another solid footing to set themselves strong. Once the tree is mature and tall other settlers arrive to colonise the new oasis within the vast ocean. Strange and bulbous fungoid plants will take advantage of rock space too small for tree roots. These feed upon the pollens of the tree flowers and sometimes the small insects that are attracted to the larger flora. Hardy to the extreme and somewhat parasitic, once a single instance takes it's spores will even start growing from the Arbor Crystalis that made conditions ripe for other plant life. A strange hybridisation is taking place here, the small bulb of Ostrum joined with the tree and has caused the flowers to bloom purple. With both the Arbor Crystalis and Ostrum growing, Hook Lillies float over. These flowers, with their green/yellow pads, survive on the sap of trees that drips down during their season. They use the ocean currents to travel around the planet and reach trees during the season they drip their sap. As a migratory flower there is some debate as to whether they are truly plants or indeed some other type of creature. Also evident is the Spiked Peony, an attractive small flower that grows in the soil created from the rock and ocean detritus that the AC creates. The tree growth can powder the rock and provides a catch for sediments washed in by the sea. In the far corner there is also a Citrine Shoot, a plant of noticeable colour and a pleasing lime-like scent. It is true from Terra to the ends of the universe. All things strive. --- Report Ends--- -*- So, I needed some stress relief. Arium Major needed some flora. Looks like we both came out better for it!

Thanks! I always find LEGO Mechs to be a bit on the skinny side, economy of parts and all that, so I often have a go at giving them a bit more to go on.

Lex Luthor has improved his LexBot and is ready to take on Superman again! With a fully loaded K-Cannon and a supply to last, he is ready to take on the alien once again! I did like the set from a while back, but mostly because it supplied some parts I could use to build something better. I can't recall if it stands taller than the original, but I have bulked it up and added armaments and armour. Then I swapped the figure from the set with the one from the promotional polybag from LEGO Batman 2. Comments, critique and etc welcome.

Brickshelf is not part of Eurobricks, so we can't help with any problems there sorry.

I would like a Belle set, lots of books and a nice thing for my sister to have too! As for starting off: I really liked the Carriage better for Cinderella and Rapunzel's tower for a building. The Ice Palace is only really good for getting the characters and the pricepoint makes it a little iffy. Merida's games is a great little set to pick up if you can still find it.

Hey guys. Can this stick to set speculation and not outright movie chatter? There's threads in Culture and Multimedia for the more media focused discussion. Thanks

33 Credits to Bob! Not sure what to do with the things on their own anyway!

That sort of thing always sounds great, but how many legitimate members would appreciate it when signing up? Really, the suggestion to report it is very true. If we spot spam before a report we deal with it, but there is nothing more frustrating to come across unreported spam with replies declaring it spam. Tap report and we staff can quickly deal with it.

There were a few faces I had encountered in the past and I know of, but I believe that they are not as active on the forum as they are elsewhere.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I love cartoony spacecraft and whacking a great big rocket onto it always works well! @kabel: Chrys might have something to spare at base but most of it doesn't travel well at speed @boxerlego: Cheers, I love to write and I have a story to tell of Pilot Cade once we have finished all this landgrabbing and settle into freebuild conditions @pombe: The motorcycle fairing clips that attach it to the wheelbase also clip onto regular LEGO bars and rods. On some I use the T bar that comes as a kickstand on these cycles and on others I use the modified plates with bars. Then you can work from that point to build in other features, choosing the one that lets you put the parts in best. This one used a bar/plate with some build-off for the front, the back is all held onto the studs on the rear of the fairing.

Jaw dropping. Your comic book creations are always fantastic and this one is an amazing combination of technique in building, composition and parts usage.

Transmission: Pilot C Cade It's good to be cleared for active duty again, I think passing the re-tests for Pilot certification with flying colours let the newbies know that a Level Black Pilot isn't someone to dismiss even if the grading system changed in the past decades. H03, or Kaalin to give it a name, is a little bleak but nowhere near as soul grasping as the blackness of space. At least here there are radio comms to pick up on, transponders pinging on the board and someone replying when you buzz HQ. These sky cycles are pretty spiffy too, they were sketches on napkins when I first came across them but the years of active service have made them a dream to fly. Hopefully I'll have time for a little fun once we've staked a claim here on Kaalin, or maybe I'll get a chance on some planet with a little more to look at. Cade signing off. ------- I love space and sky cycles, they're something I have played since I was little. At the infants school I attended (ages 4-7) there were big boxes of donated LEGO with a few very battered classic motorcycles. These things were in a state, no wheels, sometimes no front fork. But with a little imagination they became space bikes. With these new fairings I've been able to create all kinds of cool space-bikes. Oh, and the write up in character is laying down the groundwork for the life history and current times of Chrysanthemum Cade.

Okay, I don't shout it from the rooftops but I like Friendship is Magic. AND, omygosh the latest episode is the BEST EPISODE in ages upon ages. As you were.

I've got no idea what could be causing the issue, as you seem to have no problems posting here. Do you do the same things to try and post the MOC as you did for the post here? Really, all the boards run on the same software. I'm not having an issue posting a picture through Chrome, so I can't even try replicating the problem....

Eurobrick's forums has many interesting sights to see and some good eating too. Fancy a ShangHai Bun? Eurobrick's member Andybear has got you covered in the town forum. If classical dining is more your kind of thing, allow this charming candelabra to seat you and a banquet will be along shortly. This and plenty more to see on the Eurobricks Forum!
