  1. That's a beautiful MOC. I especially like the brick built stained glass window. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
  2. Yeah. I thought I had discovered an amazing trick, but it seems like it was mostly luck. At this point, I'm feeling like the whole thing is an ingenious ploy to sell the Assassin Droids battle pack. I only really wanted one, but now I have like five of them. I don't know if there are fewer clone battle packs on the shelves, or if only the droid packs have the overinflated bags. I've resolved not to buy any more of the droid battlepacks, but I might give the clone packs a shake next time I'm at the store.
  3. I definitely agree with this. I recently found a chrome vader in a battle pack by shaking boxes and buying the one that sounded more full and crinkly. However, I've bought four subsequent battle packs that sounded more full and crinkly but had no extra vader. Shaking boxes is no sure way of finding the chrome vader. They are in battle packs, and shaking can help narrow down your search, but it's no guarantee.
  4. This is really great! The Dragon Masters were my favorite when I was a kid, and you've built such a great update while retaining the feel of the classic sets. I love it, especially all the detailed interiors.
  5. The actual ticket I got with my Brickmaster subscription last fall was good for anyone.
  6. Link. By the way, I called customer service today to try ordering the brown 'stache as a replacement part again. They said no problem, but they said that last time and sent the wrong head.
  7. A 'prop' is the propeller that drives a boat. Athos is referring to the extremely large one in the movie.
  8. I found a chrome Vader today in an Assassin Droid battle pack! Regarding the website, the one a few posts above is the only one on the package. Otherwise, it's all typical stuff like choke hazard warnings. I don't think you're missing anything.
  9. That's definitely what it means. Anything listed as "exclusive" or "hard to find" on Lego Shop at Home should be in the store. Make sure you get stamps on a Lego loyalty card for the purchases you make. Also, don't forget to check out the Pick a Brick wall and the make your own minifig bin. Occasionally really nice stuff appears. Earlier today I found some yellow Leia slave torsos in the bin at the Lego store at the Mall of America. They had a bunch of Speed Racer heads and torsos, too.
  10. That sounds like a great trip! I love Italy and Austria, but I've never been to Croatia. Make sure to eat lots of food for me. I'd be interested to hear what Croatian cuisine is like.
  11. In MOCs I usually don't mix yellow and flesh, but I mix pupils and no pupils freely. Like Big Cam, I keep a lot of my sets separately bagged, but my minifig parts drawer is sorted by piece, so all the heads mix together.
  12. Thanks for the review! I found the wagon from this set half assembled in a box of pieces from my childhood a few weeks ago. I only wish I knew where the flag was. I had a lot of fun playing with this set, and it was the only one a got from the Wolfpack line.
  13. This is a great rendition of the vehicles and characters from the recent Clone Wars episode!
  14. That's a nice plane. Do you have more pictures? I'd love to see it from some other angles.
  15. Awesome! I love all the great details in the interior, especially the pews and the stained glass.
  16. I grabbed this and the mini V-19 from Target, and I like them both a lot. I hope you guys in Europe get the chance to snap up both of these sets at retail.
  17. Great job! That megablocks piece is perfect for his claws, but your decal makes the fig.
  18. I agree. The price was putting me off, but the mods that dunamis has done really improve the set. Keep up the good work!
  19. Thanks for such a nice review, def! I also really like this set. It helped me get back into Castle in a big way, since it was one of the only sets I had when I was studying in Greece last year. I also wasn't totally satisfied with the layout of the official build, so I redesigned it. You can see some pictures in my Brickshelf here. I keep meaning to build an even better mine for my dwarves, so I'm trying to build up my collection of light and dark bley slopes.
  20. Thanks for the great review! I didn't think I would get this set, but your review makes it look pretty attractive. The flick fire missiles are lame, but the planes look great.
  21. The set is actually the same as the newest Brickmaster exclusive, the Creator Garbage Truck. See it on Brickset here. It is a pretty nice set, but it's not worth 4 pounds. Unlike most Creator sets, there are no alternate models. At least you guys are starting to get a chance to buy the US exclusives across the pond, even if this is one of the weaker ones.
  22. Thanks for another great review! I love this set, and seeing the review really makes me want to rebuild mine. The outside of the ship is beautiful, but I've always wanted to add a better interior. If you remove the hidden guns and the silly glider, there should be enough room for a proper inside. Has anyone else modded it?
  23. They definitely are astromech body pieces, and they would look cool in a droid repair scene. Thanks for another great review, Mischa07!
