Yeah I agree with KDM. Yeah Santa Yoda is really cool and Im sure it will be sort after in a few years by keen collectors, but I dont think its worth it honestly. The ships are just look like someone was given some off cuts and told to make a ship while not cohering to size and proportions. Lego really needs to hire Legostein as their minis maker But as with the other Advent calenders, after Christmas they seem to stick around and get discounted. Hopefully it happens to this one. His hat has always beem like that. The pattern is in a different texture than the hat meaning it gives off a different reflection of colour.

Congrats! I which all four of you smooth sailing from now on!

Oh... In that case Im probably only going to get Lightning McQueen and Mater. The two main characters. Thanks for the info Allan!

The cars look awesome! We even get a licensed Porsche! Though in saying that I really do think that only the cars look cool. However Im conflicted as to whether this is supposed to be a mid-range set or high-range. The "minifigs sort of suggest that it is, but the building doesnt. I really do think the stalls for the gas pumps could have been extended further by at least one to give this set some depth. I do hope that changes as I assume this is still preliminary. And if the cars have stickers on them, I will murder someone.

Oops. My bad, I thought it was just to describe huge Lego pieces. This changes everything!

Yay more pics! Podracers - Looks absolutely amazing! I cannot wait to pick this set up! The podracers look absolutely flawless, its in proportion, its got good detail and it has some great new minifigs. I just hope it includes some kind of stand for them cause they look like they could fall over easy. A must buy for me Infiltrator - Looks like a meaty upgrade. This new set has gotten rid of a lot of the BURPS the old set suffered with. So that will be good for part packs and it will probably give us a nicer build. The minifigs are really nice and its good that Panaka has a new hat mould instead of the hoth trooper hat just recoloured, which was ok but it will be better for Naboo security armies. Seems to have better landing gear which the old one horribly suffers from. Will also be a must get! Frigate - I can see how this set may be appealing to some people but I find it average. Im not much of a fan of painted clone troopers so they dont worry me. The jedi are nice but not enough for me to buy it. If I was to get this set I would just buy the EP I republic cruiser because its just the same ship but without all the flick fires poking out. It also just looks better in red. Thanks for the coverage from the fair Kris Kelvin its been wonderful!

Only one Battle of Naboo? That set is awesome!

Happy Birthday! Were you trying to Scout out your presents last night?

Nice pics! Nightspeeder - Looks alright in my opinion. Though it is asymmetrical which kind of looks odd on this model. Its good that they are reusing Asajj ventress' lightsabre hilt again so its not available in one set. Ewok Attack - Its a bit on the small side I think. The logs are supposed to be pretty big to take down an AT ST but here it just takes down a measly little speeder... However it is cool that we are getting an Ewok base. I do hope this leads to an Ewok Village next year, that would really be something! This new angle on Logray makes that head look really spooky but interesting at the same time. It seems to have a lot of playibility features so I think this will sell pretty well. Now for the big news! Millennium Falcon - This will be my first purchase in this next wave! Now I realise this isnt the perfect model, but if I wanted the perfect MF I wouldve bought the UCS along time ago. Its mandibles maybe a bit small and the cockpit a tad large. I realise this. But just getting the joy of having a system MF with up to date pieces and prints and minifigs makes it worth it for me. It looks like it opens up because all the top pieces have hinges, so I cant wait to see inside it! I do like how we get chewie and his gun cause he hasnt had his trusty wookiee bowcaster in a long time! Darth Vader is good just to even it out. While C3PO and R2 may have been more accurate choices for the scene, we have been getting them a lot recently (I got my first two C3POs just in this last year!). Vader is a nice choice, and I do like having a bit of a Vader army. I cant get enough of him. Leia, from this picture, looks different. Now I dont know if thats just the pic or purposefully. But she seems to have a new face with bigger lips and maybe coloured eyes? Her hair colour also seems darker. Its more chocolatey when you compare it to Ben's hood. But is that colour accurate anyway? Cause it looks a bit weird.

Just checking, I know they are supposed to be out in feburary/march but has anyone seen the SW exclusives?

Happy Bday guys! I hope you got the Lego you were after!

Sounds like a great idea Draggy! Im sure it will get some good newbies in here and boost their confidences. I do hope they can make it with us big boys (Im not really a big boy though, more like a medium boy ). I cant wait to see who comes up through the ranks!

Oh boy new pics! Naboo Pilot - Has a good generic expression for those army builders, though is he supposed to be red? Can someone explain that to me? I thought they were brown in the film Anakin - Nice update, still looks the same as the older version's for continuity's sake. Good update on the pupils. Green Ewok - Looks spooky! Though its nice to have variation in the ewoks, so that's a good thing. But honestly, he's frickin badass Logray - Its good to get a named ewok in the set. Though is that white blob part of him or just something on the page? The tan looks great! Savage Opress - its cool they gave him both his Axe and Lightsabre. His top head piece seems to work, I dont really mind having the break inbetween. Its the sacrifice for having his horns. Geonosian - Is ok. The tan is silly, I thought they would choice a more accurate colour (but I dont really know what accurate is . The torso doesnt really seem to make it look better either. Ki-Adi Mundi - Is again ok. His head is ok and it being in two pieces means the head is reusable for you customizers out there. His torso looks average imo, but then again its not a super clear picture. Darth Maul - Looks good for a remake! It is certainly tempting me to get the infiltrator again for sure. its good that the head piece is different than savage's head piece, and its not the same head as Savage's! So no CW eyes! Padme - Looks fine. Its just good that we are getting her again. Im extremely greatful for that. Captain Panaka - does he look like he crying? The torso and hat look superd definitely reusable for more naboo guards. Qui-Gon Jinn - Its great they are using the same hair piece again, I dont think they could remake it. Its superb. His face looks fine, its good for a pupil remake and it definitely doesnt put me off getting him. Watto - is very colourful . Cant wait to pick him up! Sebulba - Is hard to judge from this angle. At least he isnt one big piece. I wonder how he will sit in his podracer though? Anakin - The helmet is fabulous! Looks spot on and will be good for Rogue pilot customs. Wald - Is awesome that we get another new Rodian head again! Obi-Wan - Kinda looks too much like Han's smirk to me. But its recognizably Obi-Wan so Im happy about that. New Clones - the blue looks bad megablocks. Its good they are still using the new leg print with the knee for these guys. Its good to see its here to stay Eeth Koth - Has a good head piece, though it seems a tad oversized. Does anyone else find that? Luke - the hair piece is good. I was happy with the long hair personally but I know others werent. It should do fine if they stick with this version from now on. Han solo - Blue pants? I thought they were supposed to be brown? Are they supposed to be blue in the sence? Its strange...

Thanks for the game Def! It was really made exceptionally well. The writing, pictures and new game elements tied together really nicely. As for my game I did play poorly, changing my vote was the worse decision I made. Then I was called on it. I only voted for Big Cam cause he voted for me and it kept it even. Nothing sinister about it. But When they unvoted me, I was asleep and couldnt do anything about it so, well he died on my sleepiness. I didnt suspect him but I just though JB was a better choice for PR. Then when he showed up just insane I thought I was a goner. Fortunately bigger news overshadowed me, but I wasnt really accepted by anyone from then. I was always "that guy". Then I asked some really noob questions to Hinckley in PM. Im not a noob at mafia games really, but this game I played stupidly. Though I must admit my death was timely though as I was just about to go on vacation. I thought I could manage playing and not sit around doing nothing. But I hardly went on EB because it was difficult so I wouldve probably been substituted or possibly killed. I kind of felt bad playing though as Def said if you are going on vacation its unwise to sign up. But I talked to Def and he said he did want me to play so I signed up. My character description: Thanks again for the part Def, it was a superb game! One of the best ive been in

Happy b'day KimT! Have a postively lego filled day!

Back from holiday! Miss me? I hope you guys picked up some good deals while I was gone, I cant be bothered searching the pages I havent read to find out though. For good NCEA results this year my Mum shouted me the AT AT. Going to build it this afternoon, should be good! Didnt pick up any lego in Aussie cause its only really $20 cheaper and there were no sales so Id rather spend money on other things. I picked up two SW books, the making of star wars, and star wars a visual history. Both really interesting. And I got an R2 D2 projection alarm clock, its really awesome . But that really ran my money out so I need to build some up for my next sets. But maybe I need some more shelves first...

These ideas are great! I do like the idea of a sub-theme. There's a lot of clashes in interests in this forum, from people reviewing creator, to people making military mocs. I do think splitting it into two would help those with different interests. Though newer members may get confused, I dont really see a lot of newbies in this forum anyway, The banner is a fantastic idea! I do love how all the different forums have their own unique banner. And Im sure something very special can be done for this forum. The Collectable minifigs really didnt feel right in general discussion, or in town either. Other Themes seems a good fit and it will definitely give this forum a big boost in popularity. I do hope it will put a shine to the wonderful creator reviews! A creator month is also a pretty good idea from Rufus too!

But these theories are essentially getting us no where. We can test and test but we still may get nowhere. I dont exactly see how we have been led down wrong paths day after day and getting nowhere. Sure we got Shadows but he was a menace that had to be stopped. But after Martin died and now Dr. Rajim I dont we can really get any solid evidence anymore. I feel we should really question how Jesus if leading us, and if we lose the big guy and he turns out town, well we are just testing theories Im not quite sure if your blinded by Jesus' Halo, or your in cahoots with him.

Hey guys me again! Just wondering if anyone knows of any sales for Lego, particularly Lego Star Wars in Melbourne this week. Thanks

Oh no! 3 insanes again! This sure is not going our way anymore at all. I will miss Havel, though we was new in here, he had an awesome beard. Im afraid we are quite lost today. Now that we have lost our photographer we are really dont have any solid evidence from the night. Petey, did you get anything last night? I know your not that accurate but at the moment, we need something! All these votes going everywhere its making my head hurt! Im not quite sure what to make about the convictions on me. yes I have been a little quite, and maybe not very helpful at times. If you want to make a mistake for the third day in a row, go on. But dont be sorry when your being torn apart tomorrow. I agree. I have completely had enough of his "theories". Yes maybe he is actually trying, but he's getting us nowhere. I feel he's only taken this role of leadership to gain trust and lull us in to a false sense of security. I see no real reason for him to stay around. Especially because his little night action always seems to fail. Convinient for him perhaps? Vote:Dougie "Jesus" Douglas / Hinckley

Congratualtions guys those are some mighty fine shots! All the entries were superb and I cant wait to see what comes next for a SW contest! A big thanks to the guys that prepared this, it was really well done. And thanks to Fenris and Smokebelch for being judges! You guys did a great job!

Probably. Though I didnt think the complete saga was that great. I had a hard time getting through it cause there was nothing special about it. Hmm Im not sure about that. This game looks great and Im loving the non CW faces. But I think if there is a battlefront 3 out there in the works it will be the pinical of all games and the best online multiplayer. Though Im a major battlefront fan my opinion is kinda biased. Though this game looks pretty good. There seems to be a lot of differing game play which sometimes the others lacked, it was all run, shoot and collect. I hope they have puzzles in the game to flex that aspect of gaming, like God of War and Fallout. The big battles look epic and I wonder how much health you will lose if your not experienced enough in the game? Does anyone know how the Ep. II parts fit into the game? Cause that confuses me.

I completely agree. Its good that they are including it in their modular buildings which is like combining tried and true with top end models of Lego. They should at least include them on their S@H pick a brick at least. Madoka if I were you I would stock up from a cheap bricklink seller, just in case if Lego stop them for good. It would be unlikely but I think its a possibility

So ive been trying to do this all day. I got 3 of them, but they were all taken! Maybe I shouldve looked in this forum sooner cause this is so addictive! This is a terrific promotion and Im gonna work really hard to get those last codes!

Yeah id say.. But I dont get how people can feel the bumps on S3 minifigs. I mean I cant even feel them! Has anyone had any luck finding them? I wonder if we get a modified version that are different to the rest?
