Haha, that's makes sense, I was reading this after the fact and a bit confused.

Let me help LEGO isn't really cheap anywhere so you may as well hit up an authentic LEGO store.

Yes, by now all new production sets should have the shiny gold, but thank LEGO for their kick megablocks customer service, I have all shiny gold and the dull stuff. I'm keeping all of it.

I have updated the first post with the 2 chosen new recruits. Thank you to everyone who showed interest.

I should have known since panties were involved, wait......

Very nice creation, it really feels like an old school MOC, it has that 90's feel, and I mean that as a compliment.

Bate Cos here. We need to put a stop to these riots now. 23 megablocking cents. I'm in here over 23 megablocking cents, unlike some of you bastards I've got a chance for parole, and I'm going to keep my nose clean, so I can get out!

This kind of proves my point, or better backs it up. But still I understand I need practice.

Ok, I was a tad upset, and I got a little emotional. You do have good points, I guess whether right or wrong, my goal was to not die right away because if wanted to play longer and get more experience, I may have been self serving, but I want to become good, and I don't see you commending any any of the players killed off early. I've been in 7 or 8 games now, yet I still feel like a noob player. I guess I've got some learning to do in mafia games, it's just frustrating when you're alone as a townie.

It is fantastic, the way the house blends into the tree.

I see it differently a good player does care about the town as a whole, but to say that your a shitty player if you don't spew crap all day and end up alive on the last day is hurtful to me. I was specifically less vocal because in past games I got axed right away for no reason due to talking. You can't try to tell me that dying day one gets you a spot on the "great mafia"players list. Now I know it's not about being the best, but sacrificing yourself on day one doesn't make you a hero for the town, it makes you dead on day one, no chance to get experience and instantly forgotten. If it's true that I only left alive because I was no that, then so be it, I was a pawn, and you're right.

It's a good idea, but I find myself wanting more of a backdrop or snow and scenery. It's been says before, it is just snow so there is not much more you can do, but even a white studio would help your scene out. Good idea though.

An old bump, but for a worthy cause, I'm sure Zorro would be proud of the army you created for him. I am certainly impressed.

Nice work, it's simple but well done, I actually like the elevation you achieved on your little island.

You have a unique style that is instantly recognizable. They both would look at home next to any of your other creations. Your effects on the walls always is my favorite part, sometimes they are made from studs, sometimes smooth panel pieces, sometimes crazy stained glass. They are awesome like usual.

Welcome to the forum, you've found the right place! You sound like someone who re-found LEGO at a great time. The sure has just about anything you need LEGO related, I hope you like the site.

The infamous Yellow Castle! Lucky duck. Be sure to check out www.bricklink.com it will make you feel good about all the old sets you kept all these years. I always use this example when helping a guy explain this hobby to his wife/fiancee. Wouldn't you rather have a $100 charge to a toy store each month as opposed to a $100 charge at a strip club each month? I explained this hobby to my wife as just that, a hobby, just like building model planes our collecting baseball cards. Good luck and don't give up!

Any more info? Did you ever have a dark time when you didn't collect/play with your LEGO's? Do you have a favorite theme?

Haha, excellent. I played the first angry birds all the way through, it consumed my spare time for months. You got their look perfectly, now you need a backdrop and a slingshot.

"Megabluck me, I've lost my panties I'm guessing KimT since I tried to post a picture of panties for him, but my link failed and I cursed, turns out it's Hinckley who loves the panties (It's way more innocent than it sounds)

A really simple studio set up is 2 piece of white tag board or foam board, you should be able to pick some up at any office supply store for only a few dollars and it can easily be hidden under your bed or behind a desk when not in use.
