LEGO Star Wars 2018 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!
Forresto replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Yikes the FO AT-ST looks awful, absolutely nothing like the film version its based off of (we've seen them in the trailers). -
The pilot figures are superb looking!

How sturdy are your tie designs? Are they swooshable because they look really awesome!
-
Wow, I love the miniature U-Wing, it makes sense there would be a smaller sub type.

Thrawn torso is from Firestar Toys. The Emperor's cloak is the highwayman's cape.

The hanger is simply, absolutely incredible! Phenomenal job especially on those buttresses.

Can I just say the micro fighters and Luke's House from TLJ and a new cantina have single handedly made this wave. Affordable ways to get high quality minifigures is what i'm talking about! A tad disappointed though that Greedo yet again lacks arm printing when the original edition from way back when had some. -
Hello everyone! I was wondering if there was a list anywhere on all of the dual molded minifigure arms and legs currently out? If not such a list would be extremely useful for all AFOLs to have.

[MOC] TIE Fighter (STARWARS REBELS Design)
Forresto replied to Bricks Feeder's topic in LEGO Star Wars
This maybe the greatest Tie Fighter MOC i've ever seen. Visually that is. The question remaining is how stable is it? -
I'm looking at their custom figures and I realize that someone on this thread posted Firestartoys' custom Thrawn figure. Who was that and is the figure any good? Does it have back printing? Thank you! That's good to know, I might actually buy some then being that they're near TLG level quality. I'm in the States so I need to figure out if they ship overseas.

Look obviously I am fond of Discovery, however I do get really frustrated at canon inconsistencies as well. I'm gonna give them the chance to figure themselves out and reconcile the show to the franchise. Such as none of the Klingon stuff looking very Klingon (i'm looking at you D-7 that isnt a D-7). However besides visuals I haven't really noticed any major or significant canon discrepancies short of say the holographic communications. Oddly enough the animated series is apparently canon again, for the most part, which is why Discovery has a tiny holodeck. In TAS the original Enterprise had a holodeck called the recreation room and Gene Roddenberry envisioned a holodeck in TOS but never had the budget to do it until TNG.

Wow those are incredible looking with the arm insignias. Are you in the US? Last time I looked on the site they didnt have these particular arms. Also how is the plastic?
-
I for one like Solo. Only in the sense that it goes beautifully with the incredible Lando comic "Lando". It's a silly name though. Who wants to say they're going to see Solo without the immediate Star Wars context.
-
Especially considering Mando rockets can pierce Imperial hulls such as the interdictor at the Battle of Atollon last season. I must've selectively forgot about that... Still I have a lot of hope for the next two episodes, especially with Saw Gerrera involved!
-
"Ahhhhhhhhrrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhh!" -Vocalization of my reaction to the first two episodes... I usually give Rebels a lot of credit, half hour show aimed mostly at kids so expect broad strokes, but these episodes go way below Rebels level quality. It feels as if these episodes were necessary to close an arc but the writers didnt know how they wanted to finish it. Honestly I don't usually criticize writing on TV, it makes me feel real pompous, but the Rebels writers are extremely inconsistent. Either you get incredible Thrawn dialogue or you get Sabine Deus Ex. Also can they please stop destroying Star Destroyers? They start to diminish how powerful they are when they show them blown up so lamely.
-
Deathgasm ............just don't, wow what a movie. Decent acting for a smaller production company though, not incredible or enticing but the lead is cool enough.
-
So we're five episodes into the series now. I rewatched all five with my buddy and I realized a fundamental aspect of the show. Discovery is a show at its best when its binged. It's extremely serial and kind've a slow burn. Themes and concepts that are typically dealt with in one episode in old school Trek are being carried and developed over many episodes. Characters that seem un trek have actually been revealed to be much aligned to the principles of the Federation and Starfleet.

I absolutely love that! I remember reading the Tag & Bink comics when I was a kid and its so cool to see them appear in some form in the new canon.
-
How absolutely macabre! The scratch marks an amazing touch
-
Anyone notice the AT-STs and AT-ATs. Good to see the old surplus Imperial ships being used.
-
I really want to know how much money is being put into each episode. They shouldve gotten tgenndy tartakovsky to do them, then at least there would be art behind it. Imagine his style but in the Original Trilogy?

As long as Thrawn gets a corrected torso, Rebel set torso prints don't have the best record.
