    I've purchased a few of these. I didn't really intend to get Vardy, but I did for the parts, and he's quite nice actually. Fangar is rather impressive, and Laval and Cragger are decent.

    Great hands!!!

    I've only seen it in a TRU, but I haven't been to a Smyths or anything recently so I am not aware if they have them or not. The giraffe is exclusive to TRU. I know what you mean. It's annoying when promotional items and polybags don't always get distributed everywhere. It's more annoying when they suddenyl arrive without warning and dissapear gain before you have the chance to get them.

    Love 'em! I really like the Bohrok, and recently I tried and failed to do a non bionicle part one. Yours are amazing though!

    I found that Breez polybag today in a Toys R Us by the way (if anyone;s interested). I also found that they had a fair amount of the HF IFB wave one and two sets. They also had a promortion where you got a Geoffrey Giraffe with any £15+ purchase of Lego. The sets I got (Crystal Beast, Tunneler Beast and Breez Flea Machine) are ok sets, a little gappy in places or oddly proportioned, but nice all the same. I got them mainly for MOC and MODing purposes. I think theyre worthe getting for the parts really, more than the designs. EDIT- Actually, the designs are nice. Their looks are growing on me, I'm rather fond of Tunneler beast

    Wow! This is amazing! It looks great and there are some interesting pieces used!

    That's a very nice car! Its great! 'I even like the colour' (its an Indiana Jones quote by the way)
  8. Mutant Orc
    Wow, very cool! The likeness is amazing! will you be making more?
  9. Mutant Orc
    Agreed!
  10. Mutant Orc
    They both look pretty cool!! The one on the left could work brilliantly, but the finished model would have to be a seriously huge investment of parts!!!!

    Hmm, I know what you mean. I myself have bought all the LOTR and Hobbit sets, and they are really worthwhile. If you leave it a while without watching the films or reading the books then the need for staying cannon wares off. At least it did for me. I also think that LOTR and Hobbit are better than the LEGO own brand fantasy-historical themes in a few senses, as they seem more serious, with darker colours, nicer more sensible prints and FLESH FACES, which I prefer personally. The only real drawback with LOTR and Hobbit sets, from a parts pack view (rather than a collectors view who would find two problems- the second being no where near enough sets or characters from important scenes), is the pricing. At least i found that problem.

    Wow, these are clever and cool!!
  13. Mutant Orc
    Can I be slightly picky and ask why its a turtle?? Its a tortoise in the offered set, as tortoise go on land........ Still, cool prizes and such!!
  14. Mutant Orc
    Wow! Thats amazing!!!! Loads of NPU and a great look!!!
  15. Mutant Orc
    They're both great, but that green one is my favorite!! Really accurate and good looking!!!

    Reading; for fun, creative writing on occasions, but I rarely get past the opening (!!!); film watching; and not much else besides. I don't do do much. I have a hobby deficit.
  17. Mutant Orc
    Wow, really well done, there's just enough, but not too much, craziness in it!! great!!!
  18. Mutant Orc
    Cool! He knows some stuff that's for sure!

    I'm also going UK of course. I'm assuming the front ones are on the left hand side and the back on the right hands side.

    I actually quite like it with the windscreen. It adds to the bulky upper part of the mech. And the skinny lower limbs help with that too. I like it! I'm not so fond of the light silvery bits though. Too different from black. Maybe replace with dark silvery metal (or whatever the actual colour is called, you should know what I mean!!!)

    Perks- Scenery Downside- rarely being able to see the scenery as the cloud level and hammering rain obscure the whole county. That happens a bit, especially in winter. Although, the infamous bad weather is not plaguing us now, at least not in Gwynedd. It's bright and sunny and has been for a while. (PS- Yes! I do live in Wales!!! Just I'm under UK in nationality!)

    Heh heh, I have no clue about boats either!! But this is a nice MOC, it's surprising how much room you've found for trapdoors and modular stuff in it!
  23. Mutant Orc
    very very nice!!! It has a slightly quirky cute look to it!
  24. Mutant Orc
    I want one!!!

    Well, I'd imagine that they sell more sets rather than individual bricks and such as there is more appeal with children. I'd also imagine that they could sell something more 'complete' at a higher price, i.e. people will spend more on something that looks whole rather than a random pile of bits and bobs. Although they do have pick a brick, and they do have motors and stuff that are sold separately, and they do have the brick boxes, so they do provide pieces, but only as a foundation for the owner to go out and buy sets. Most of the pieces in these things are rather useless by themselves. So LEGO is rather set orientated. I like to collect some sets, and I very very rarely get a set solely for parts, otherwise I would be buying any random set just to be bulking up my collection, but I don't do that. I like a nice mixture of things in a set. Pieces, figures, visual appeal and fun stuff. So I buy for the sets themselves and for the pieces, as inevitably they get smashed for the parts.
