  1. Ilrion's winged thing is magma monster's first cousin.
  2. God I love this theme. I wish frankenstein's lab had included a pink alien conquest brain on one of his shelves or something, but oh wells. Glow in the Dark looks a lot less obvious than it used to, huh? Especially if the viking horns on the ghost train are GitD like the dude at the Nuremberg fair was saying. and Summon Aanchir! Do I have anything in the orc/werewolf tree leaves green, or is that color a summer debut? I'm gonna feel like a moron if it's been around for years
  3. US total (with the one of each) is 373. I'm not gonna try for any multiples because I'm going after complete series of Marvel and collectible minifigures as well, bringing me to 700USD. They supposedly have a Hobbit board game, though they only had a placeholder sign in front of a box with a still from the film. I'll hold onto some cash fo' that too.
  4. Fbtb's flickr? some people don't permit download but for them you ought to be able to right-click and select "original" in "more sizes" or whatever they call it. Takes you to the file.
  5. The $60 one. Weathertop opens up so that pebbles in the wall become "flickfire missiles"? That shoe in action feature never fails to be a source of unspeakable idiocy
  6. I've got another for you: granted it's with the "poor excuse for an action feature/ already have more than I'd ever use" 61184. In the tip of the new geonosian cannon.
  7. Speaking of antennae, has anyone requested the musketeer's rapier yet? because I do want one of those. and it's getting lots of use in the upcoming monster fighters line
  8. But speaking of preliminary names, Target still stocks Black Phantom under the name Overlord.
  9. Feelin' ignored, youse guys.
  10. I think you all just wanna see a guitar too hard. (I'm not registering that as looking like a guitar) But I do need some shoulder mounted speaker cannons.
  11. removing my off topic post.
  12. TransGreen wedgey plates? Alriiiight! wish I was in a lugbulking lug. Also, love the use of the pirate guns. Bionicle style long double ball joint up in the neck, right? Does it look fixed? Can't tell, myself.
  13. specifically and related to upgrades, he looks like the conversion chamber from "Rise of the Cybermen"
  14. I like the xt4 and the clearest pictures of any hero factory sets so far are the leaks. the video was a definite step backwards in being able to see a single thing. xt4's head has flopped sideways, and he's tied into a pretzel for pete's sake. we all know just what he looks like and now you're all "he looks like a smelly old pretzel" - well no. he looks like a fuzzy great bunch of pixels at low resolution, motion blurred, and worthless for speculating over.
  15. Nope, sorry: the true purpose of the One Ring is to be a doughnut for the next wave of city police sets
  16. Who else is buying lots of chain?
  17. It seems the number for this one (array of decorative packed together parts) is 93081.. but anyway, this:
  18. only PC on ABS (unless it's not), but I'm never gonna get the cone off the tip of one of my Lunar Limo.. gun.. stick.. things. Front, are these always polycarbonate?
  19. They could use a bit of gunmetal grey armor in the legs and gloves department.
  20. Is too! No, I'm just playing whiny kid. I've been amassing tools and materials to do my own custom Gollum. That boy nekkid. But in seriousness, I wish Lego designers would take more care to make nonstandard figs more poseable. After all, they officially conceded minifigs are for stop motion animation (Studios). On the other hand, started off some bad habits with battle droids and never revised them. Now we've got battle droid style legs spoiling figures that should be fantastic - the lithe and acrobatic 'commando droids', among others. What they've done for the horses is going in the right direction. And honestly, I like gollum much more than I thought I would. They did end up treating him like a man, giving him mainly printed features and no nose You get a little worried after countless Yodas and Dobbys. Complaint to the other discussionists: How was anyone expecting the eyes to not be big and wide? Gollum's gleaming eyes are key to the character. I mean in the hobbit, bilbo's down in the cave with gollum, and he basically just sees "green lanterns" staring him down. Orcs are now officially adorable.
  21. Same as my target. Felt odd to gladly take the $2 TRU markup.
  22. Well I'm just saying: never seen a swamp monster with webbed feet sticking out of its head, and I've been a fan of that look since childhood, due to lego's dragon mold and the frilled lizard guy from jurassic park. The big slitted eyes aren't looking familiar to me on a swamp monster either The "black lagoon" creature is all gills. All non-Black Lagoon swamp monsters I know are made of vegetation or big furry loup garous. Edit: actually I lied about the slitted eyes: want your living daylights scared out? this is the Audubon Zoo's idea of a swamp monster
  23. Shucks, I bought Tattooine as a sampler and got hooked went back and bought the other two today thanks for the review!
  24. So the hulk chest looks like a dual ball snap connection to shoulders of the wider torso. and maybe an unused connection at the back middle bottom of the piece.
  25. Brickshelf isn't working so I'll just describe it. Take a transparent part that can be printed on. like a trans neon green mini figure head. apply the print with the green goop dripping all down it, which has actually been printed on that color. It won't look like opaque print on a transparent piece of plastic. the transparency is applied to the print as well as the part. Prints on transparent surfaces should be opaque. Something else: Can we ask for a bit of slack in hero factory parts collision detection? Taking the current example of set 6200, a little bit of play and overlap is crucial - It's impossible to build that cannon arm, at least if you want to be able to rotate it out of one fixed position that you took forever to wiggle into. Sorry for obnoxious text formatting.
