Inconspicuous

Bienvenidos! It sounds like you already have a great collection growing. Also, I like your first MOC. I'm actually going to Spain in around a week. Out of curiosity, what area are you in? Enjoy your stay.

+1 for Archer +1 for streifen Thanks for helping me complete my Series 3 and 4 sets!

A friend of mine who works in Biotech says that they're having a a Lego Master Builder make Lego models of their product to give away at an upcoming conference. I suspect that this is the case with the unidentifiable set you have. Even if it's not, it looks pretty interesting and possibly quite rare.

I've added around 40 new minifigs, including some Classic Pirates, Harry Potter, and Star Wars minfigs! PM me or post here if you're interested in something. Thanks for stopping by!

As you're all aware, Lego discontinued the Brickmaster program last year. New subscriptions were stopped, but models and magazines kept on coming out for the customers who still had subscriptions. I was lucky enough to subscribe at the last possible moment, and even though the program is dead, I'm still receiving exclusive sets in the mail. Every month, fewer and fewer people receive these sets so I feel that it is my duty to bring you a review of the penultimate Brickmaster set that will ever be made: Set 20021 Mini Bounty Hunter Gunship. This set is a minimodel of the Halo, a mercenary ship that has made a few cameos through the Clone Wars series in addition to being made into a full-sized Lego set this year. Even if it's not the coolest ship or the most accurate design, this mini has some nice things to offer, so let's take a look. BASIC INFORMATION: Set Name: Bounty Hunter Assault Gunship Set Number: 20021 Number of Pieces: 81 Minifigs: 0 (Minimodel) Price: N/A (Brickmaster Promo) Theme: Star Wars / Mini (Clone Wars) Year Released: 2011 RESOURCES: Brickset Bricklink Flickr THE REVIEW: BAG: Front: First up is the set's large flashy polybag. I've never understood why Lego makes Brickmaster bags so big considering the sets are quite small, but it's kind of nice to have a large stock image of the set for my unofficial box art collection. The usual set information appears on the left and the cool dark blue Captain Rex logo appears on the top. Back: The back has the usual warnings and a clear strip that gives you a sneak peek of the set's contents. The parts for this set were made in Denmark, Hungary, and the Czech Republic. Bag:: Thoughts: Lego's box size reduction changes clearly haven't hit the polybags yet, but at least the art is nice. INSTRUCTIONS: Front: The manual is of the typical folded variety and showcases the same image as the polybag. It kind of looks like the background planet disappears halfway through, but there's actually a faint line the continues around the nighttime side. Random Page: The instructions are quite bland, featuring only a drab gray background. In this case it makes the set's colors seem even brighter. Tan boxes and arrows direct the building and placement of the ship's subsections. Parts Inventory: The parts inventory for anyone interested. Back: The back shows the 2011 wave of Star Wars sets, including the model's bigger brother: Set 7930. Instructions:: Thoughts: Simple to the point of being bland, but nothing obviously wrong with them. PIECES: Pieces: Here are the set's pieces, carefully spread for your viewing pleasure. The set has a unique dark green and yellow color scheme, but of course every space ship has to have a good mix of black and gray. There's a fair amount of slopes and plates since the ship has a good amount of SNOT. I especially like the green slopes and black arches. For some reason, I've forgotten to include one piece in the picture: the Black Plate Modified 1 x 2 with Handles. Click the picture to see a larger version. Pieces of interest: Some of my favorite pieces, including the slope and arch I mentioned. The rocket pieces are not all that common, and cheese graters are always fun. Pieces:: Thoughts: A pretty nice selection over a variety of colors and piece types. There's quite a good amount of them for a promo set. THE BUILD: Build: The build starts with a nice, solid SNOT center. Next, the slopes and tiles are added, creating a smooth and pretty cockpit area. The tail of the ship is built separately and then the engines are attached. After 16 quick steps, the model is done! Extra Pieces: A few meager pieces are left over. Cheese slopes are always good to have. Build:: Thoughts: Not too much repetition and a good amount of SNOT for a small model. It was a nice process although it was short because it's a minimodel after all. COMPLETED PRODUCT: Front: And we have our completed product! The SNOT cockpit is well done and the wingspan is quite nice. The yellow on the engines looks rather jarring from this view, but there's more yellow being blocked. Back: From the back, you get a nice view of the rear guns and the small boosters. The red tile is awkward the way it's attached, but it doesn't break off too easily. You can see how light and empty the back is, so it's no surprise that the ship collapses backwards without the support of the main engines. Top: The top view shows off the ship's impressive wingspan and the beautiful dark green tiling on top. The rocket/blade pieces are really neat against the round yellow plates. Side: The cheese graters are tucked away under the wing. You can also catch a glimpse of the smooth piece holding the wing together. That big gray tile bothers me, because the actual ship is green in that spot. More on the accuracy in a bit. Under: You can see the hidden detailing much more clearly from the bottom. I like the way the black arches seem to match the shape of the green inverse slopes. The front guns break off easily whenever the ship crash lands, and it's easy to see why. Flying: With the aid of a few clear bricks, this is what the ship looks like in flight mode. I think it looks much more natural this way. Halo: This is what the actual ship is supposed to look like, and the Lego model clearly has some issues. The engines are a bit too long and not thick enough; the cockpit has too much green and not enough gray; the back extends out too far. The list goes on. So in terms of accuracy, it's not all that great. But they captured the shape, and as a standalone model I think it's fine. Video: A brief video featuring the set. There aren't any functions to display apart from the rotating engines, but heck, who doesn't like a video? _______________________________________________ Totals: Design: 7/10 Although it certainly isn't the most accurate model, it works well as a Lego set. The SNOT cockpit is well designed and it's more or less sturdy and pleasant to look at. Parts: 9/10 A nice selection of colors and types. The black arches and dark green pieces are certainly highlights, but even the more bland pieces aren't half bad for a promo set. Build: 8/10 Pretty enjoyable and interesting. For a minimodel, the unique shape makes this a different experience than other sets I've built. A tiny bit of repetition when building the wings, but it's otherwise ok. Playability: 6/10 It can swoosh around fine, and crashing it is pretty fun. However, the engines get out of line easily, and there's not much else it can do by itself. Price: 8/10 For an estimated price of $6, you certainly get your money's worth: 81 pieces. But since this was a Brickmaster set, it's unfortunately too rare to be cheap online. Total: 38/50 Overall, I'm pretty happy with this set. It has a nice color scheme and an interesting design. I wasn't expecting anything like it, so it was a pleasant surprise to find a Star Wars minimodel in my mailbox on May 4th. Right now, there are only a few available online for around $30. Unless you're in love with this set, it's probably not worth it. But if you already have one, and aren't sure whether to keep it or resell it, hopefully this review will help you decide. Bonus: Green ship, green thumb. Thanks for reading! -Inky

+1 for Kenny Thanks for a great Collectable Minifigs swap!

It worked for me. I only had two PM chains going through the game (not including Hinck's). It was really hard to be a townie without a night action that was excluded from all the masons' discussions. Even if I tried to talk to you more often, I wouldn't have anything to share except suspicions, so I doubt we'd discuss important matters anyways.

Welcome to Eurobricks! Like you, I live in Silicon Valley, and I'm always glad to see people from the same area joining. In the meantime, enjoy your stay!

Darn it, now I sort of wish I had been killed just so I could see myself explode. An exploding turkey would have been awesome.

Woo! What a conclusion! Thanks for an awesome game everyone, and of course a special thanks to Hinckley for being a fantastic host. I really liked the riddles, even if I didn't get them first. I have to say, it was hard for me to be of much use. I had no night action, and I felt like I was left out of all the PM discussions too. I think the fact that I was never inducted into the Masons had a lot to do with this, considering (if I'm not misreading) I was the only non-Mason town in the end, apart from Edgar, who had gained trust early in the game. I'm still confused about the magic apple. Was it a one-time-use protection, or was it a paranoid-apple-owner sort of thing? I guess I'll have to wait for the Roles and Night Actions and everything else to be published. In the meantime, my role:

Fair enough. No one had mentioned that the kidnapping and hijacking were related, so I had no way of knowing. Someone who recently led a Demon conviction is more likely to be correct again than someone who hasn't done too much in the day threads to be begin with. My vote stands where it is.

If I remember correctly, the Night 7 knife kill was in fact the result of a lover dying, not a separate deliberate kill. You're not making much sense with this whole "kidnap distribution" thing. It sounds like a fake excuse to me. I also trust Cameron so I will vote: Kaley Cat (Lord Arjay).

Happy Birthday Rufus! I hope you receive plenty of rattling boxes.

Oh my! What a night. May Horace and Gabby rest in peace... at least Horace went knowing that his infamous crow did exist after all. Speaking of which, we got rid of another Demon! Let's keep this up, people. Despite our victory, somehow we lost three townies during the night. I can understand the fire kill, since there has to be at least one Demon left, but the knife kill and the kidnapping? I have a feeling that these new powers have to do with Daxia's triumph over the Bakers. Did anyone learn anything during the night? Perhaps Cameron, you and the blocker have discovered something new?

For the sake of a conviction, I think it's necessary to: Unvote: Portia Poodle (Cornelius Murdock) Vote: Bruno Bear (Scouts) I trust Edgar and Cameron, so hopefully this is the right choice.

Hmm, this is a sudden change. I'm not quite sure what to make of it. Did the blocker just start talking? Or have you been in contact for a while? If they just started talking to you, they could be a member of Demon Legion trying to convince us not to lynch Portia, if it's possible that two scum remain.

Updated June 25th I'm located in the US, but shipping internationally is no problem at all. All of my minifigures are in their packaging, but I have carefully opened a slit so I can confirm the contents. HAVE: Series 3: Sumo Wrestler Fisherman Series 4: Sailor x 2 Artist x 2 Skater Geisha WANT: Nothing in particular. Make me an offer! I also have a few loose Star Wars figs and sets, and a bunch of Classic Castle figs. Take a look in my trading topic for the non-collectable minifig items I'm willing to trade. PM me if you're interested. Thanks for looking!

A good, compelling argument against Portia. We're almost rid of the Demon scum, and I think this is a good move for us. Cameron's story makes sense with our new information about the Baker, so I will Vote: Portia Poodle (Cornelius Murdock) .

Noo! Not the poor baker and his wife! Stupid mushrooms. And this alleged janitor that prevents us from knowing the conviction results. Well, what do we do now? Did anyone learn anything of use during the night? There wasn't an Arsonist attack, so perhaps someone was blocked?

Two games in a row I've been given false hope, only to find out it was a dream sequence.

Hmmm. I'm afraid that we have little else to go off of other than voting patterns, so I'm willing to support your plan. Her rebuttal was a little weak, but not as crazy as Cara's yesterday. I sincerely hope we're right about doing this. Vote: Mindy Mouse (Professor Flitwick)

Poor Booker and Becka. At least we nabbed that nasty Cara. There can only be a few more Demons left. Hopefully this whole ordeal will be over soon. Would you remind me how we've confirmed them as Demon Legion? Or maybe who they are? I think this bodyguard could be lying to Gilbert, since bodyguards can often be devious liars. Either that or Gilbert is covering for a fellow Demon.

You say the powers were given out randomly, but yet it's unlikely the town got them? Wouldn't there be a higher probability of a townie getting the role, assuming such a thing could even be done? And correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the masons a special breed of townie? So where are you getting this idea of a third faction? Quit while you're ahead and stop digging your own grave.

I remember that story quite well. So you're saying that a townie could have become the arsonist? I'm sorry, but I just don't believe that. With all the strong evidence against Cara and a weak defense from her, I will vote: Cara Cow (Badboytje88).
