  1. Am I the only person here who's a big fan of TBS? They often put the wrong heads on minifigures, especially in old sets. It kind of bugs me when it's a set I know really well, like Bandit's Secret Hideout.
  2. Does no one have any interest in these?
  3. It sounds awesome, but I can't find any photos. Are there no photos yet?
  4. I love the Brick Show! I find it a little humorous sometimes that they don't know much about old sets, but overall I think they do great reviews.
  5. Wow. This is hilarious. I've never seen any building toys that look so bad. Seriously, what were they thinking? Just look at those things. Forget about the quality for a moment. There are TONS of bad quality knockoffs that look superb. You could just walk into any Dollar General and find stuff that looks at least as awesome as 1980s Lego sets. These are so bad it doesn't even matter whether the quality is good or bad. They're just horrendous. I bet TLG's designers are laughing about this even now.
  6. Lothlórien sounds great, but I think the Prancing Pony would be even more awesome. I just love any set that has a lot of wooden stuff.
  7. That's awesome. It would be cool to see a huge series of MOCs including this guy. People all over the world could put him in their nature MOCs. How did you attach the hats to the bone?
  8. It might be people in countries where it isn't available.
  9. I don't understand why there are so many people here buying this stuff. Why doesn't eBay do anything about this stuff? I've reported these things so many times.
  10. Now that we're all agreed, we just need to sit back and watch TLG work its magic. Seriously, though, what does it take for them to bring a theme back? Do they do huge studies to determine what kids want the most?
  11. I think this is the best brick-built dragon I've ever seen. I'd like to see it with more colors though because solid black doesn't provide a lot of clarity in photos.
  12. No kidding! It would be so awesome to have big forests sets with a little camp surrounded by trees a few miles away from the king's castle.
  13. One of the awesome things about bringing them back now is that we have those cool Elven cloaks from The Hobbit. Those would go great on the forestmen. I remember they had something similar to it in some sets in the '90s, and I'd be a little sad not to see those old cloaks return, but the new ones are great.
  14. It's beautiful! I really love the way you made the roof and that turntable is just fantastic. Have you figured out a way to get it to stop when it's aligned with a track, or will it be difficult to control with the remote?
  15. You raised a lot of good points. That being said, I hope you're flat-out wrong and the Forestmen are announced tomorrow.
  16. Nice. I like it! I did something similar to it a couple years ago, but it wasn't all that great.
  17. I'm not really crazy about the Sea Crow because it looks really weird. It doesn't fit in with the other pirates sets. If I get any of the bigger sets, it'll be Benny's Spaceship because it looks like the old space sets but better. I'm really hoping that Benny's helmet isn't broken and the paint on his torso isn't faded. That would be really disappointing, I think.
  18. This is probably the best counterfeit I've seen so far. (Click image for entire album.) This photo is good it makes me wonder if they actually took this photo of the real thing and not the counterfeit. Edit: I knew it! Those jerks stole the image from this article. http://hiconsumption.com/2012/10/lego-teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-minifigures/
  19. Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I haven't seen anyone mention it. Has anyone noticed that Benny is in the pirate ship set?
  20. To be honest, I've never even noticed before that those are two different themes. But I do remember those because I was a kid when the later ones were released. I wasn't even born yet when the first theme started.
  21. They also probably have to wait for enough orders so they can get a bulk shipping discount.
  22. They get a lot of requests and I'm sure they can't afford to have a lot of people working in the free parts department.
