  1. The question is though - How is it going to be proven? If someone else steps up and says "I'm the blocker" how are you going to decide who is lying and who's telling the truth? Best to go with your gut instincts than waiting. What I find somewhat scummy about your post is that you haven't taken a clear standpoint, you're sitting on the fence deliberating with yourself which isn't helping the town.
  2. But then a 24 hour grace period also delays the formation of the town block and any discussion(s) they may have.
  3. Just saw TFA! It was excellent!
  4. But it's not really a deliberate action but more a business decision to include exclusive minifigures in expensive sets. Take Darth Vader in the Final Duel set. The new helmet feature was actually included on the front of the box... Something we don't see often on Lego sets these days, so it was clearly an incentive for people to purchase the set to gain that particular minifigure. Also remember, Lego is not a museum, its a money making company, if a wonderfully detailed minifigure comes out in a set, that doesn't mean to say that variant has to be included in every subsequent set to follow.
  5. Unless he Faces the Raven whilst doing so!

  7. That looks very promising!
  8. Fair point . I suppose I was just wondering why everyone went for him.
  9. To whose standards though? You have to always consider the target audience in question: Kids. Is a child not going to buy a set just because one of the figures doesn't have arm printings?
  10. Did we though? I still can't understand why everyone decided to change their votes to him.

  12. What my store does, for sets like this and the Death Star, is stock one empty box on shelves, so people can look at all the features and then they have lots in storage
  13. Very good build . The greebling on the side is very well done and I like the hole you made in the floor.
  14. Very good work! Your build has a nice Imperial feel to it.
  15. I believe what happened was in the 2014 Rumours and Discussion thread someone said they would like to see a UCS AT-AT, someone else came along and misread the post and thought there was an upcoming one. But anyway the best thing we can do is wait until we see more information.
  16. When Lego designs a set they have key priorities and long term goals they want to achieve. And its recognizing those key priorities that make a strong set. Obviously, Boba does not remove his helmet in the movies so it was not a crucial priority in the set compare to say... the accuracy of the Ugnaught mold or Darth Vader's head in the Final Duel set. And... Let's be honest, I don't think many people are going to display the set with Boba's helmet off.
  17. many
  18. Any chance of a spare seat perhaps?!
  19. chocolate
  20. You don't seem to have a clear viewpoint on things. I mean it's okay to change your mind but it seems every time someone challenges your thoughts you change your mind.
  21. That sounds good. It will (possibly) mean the inclusion of more non-CW Jedi.
  22. Whilst he isn't in the clear just yet, it could have just been a neewbie mistake rather than a scummy post.
  23. Batman's
  24. Fair enough . But on some, not all occasions members have been reading the topic, in any case point taken.
