  1. And the new parking station with workshop, petrol pumps and car wash.
  2. I see, but does that one have a windscreen sloping back not forwards on it ?
  3. Excellent 'ISC', I that fusing of classic space with a bit of AC....by the looks of it plenty of storage space at the bottom. Troop carrier/drop ship ? What's next ?
  4. Great review 'Graysmith', handy parts pack...useful accessories, sweet compound bow and trans-orange round 1x1 tiles ! Nice to see the equipment rack can be used by other heroes eh ? I wonder if these will ever make an appearance down under ? (one can always hope )
  5. Nice little machine 'damin' , but I also think that the body length is too short when comparing it with your image of a real one. Brick On Sweep On 'damin' !
  6. Seeing that it's called 'Helicopter Rescue' it fits in with the mining sets......hmmm, we are going missing a mine rescue unit.
  7. Marvel sets are starting to appear at more Target stores in Adelaide. Can't wait for a %-off sale.....fingers crossed after mother's day....or is that wishful thinking.
  8. Neat little chair and they are really big flakes of rolled and toasted corn eh ? Keep your little creations coming 'purpleparadox', though not as fuzzy.
  9. Again you come through for us 'GRogall', thanks for the pictures of the medical centre....seriously that isn't big enough to be a hospital. I wonder why Lego has chosen big plates instead of base plates ? Could it be that the idea is you snap these onto road plates and make paths up to the front doors of each building.....the forest police station is the same. I still say the ambulance in it is a let down, but I'll still buy one.....I'm a sucker for city sets !
  10. Oh, man....research everyone, just a little research. Right then the 'Kimono Girl', the outfit is called a Furisode...... (振袖): furisode literally translates as swinging sleeves—the sleeves of furisode average between 39 and 42 inches (1,100 mm) in length. Furisode are the most formal kimono for unmarried women, with colorful patterns that cover the entire garment. They are usually worn at coming-of-age ceremonies (seijin shiki) and by unmarried female relatives of the bride at weddings and wedding receptions. The face painted white well......in the Edo Period (1603-1867) there basically only three colors for make-up: white for face powders, black for eyebrows and teeth and beni for lips. In the Edo period when women married they shave off their eyebrows. No talk of geisha really, assume some are doing, gee I'm feeling like Yoda right now ! Lego has always had high morals, especially when it comes to modern warfare.....go figure their company was born out of the ashes of WWII it's a no-brain there. With Cuusoo, I feel they are wanting fresh ideas....don't be all surprise that in two or three years we get a modular pub and a funky looking starship ? Hence, no booze, no smokes, no sex, etc., child or more to the fact family friendly.....saves on legal costs too, offend no one hence no one gets dragged through the courts. Just my two cents worth.
  11. A fantastic looking saloon , whitewashed walls, typical bar keep, the usual card game with a couple of card sharks and six shooters a plenty. Great scenery around it too, excellent designing 'BaraSH'.....Brick On in the wild, wild, west !
  12. Nice tank , do you have an image of a real one to show us to compare 'blaz62'. (a little piece of advice, this 'Sry and thx' the moderators are not fans of the kind of posting.....sorry 'Rufus' for mini-mod'ing) Anyway, good luck in your contest with your tank 'blaz62'.
  13. You haven't ever watched Ben10 ? I that new first image on the Cuusoo page.....too much almost. I'm already supporting this one, hopefully this one makes as Firefly didn't pass the review board.
  14. The best one yet......a small step for The Stig, a giant leap over Clarkson's ego ! Saw the tractor one.....it belongs to James doesn't it ? Brick On with The Stig 'CamelBoy68' (oh, suggestion.....taxi driver Stig )
  15. I'm impressed so far 'Konajra', I really like the detailing on this.....I look forward to progress shots of the fishing boat as you go. Brick On Fish On 'Konajra' !
  16. This is C & C .....cute and cool that is, a beautiful two storey building you have created in the classic town feel 'Lego Amaryl'. Wonderful interior, but that is one king size bed up stairs ! Brick On 'Lego Amaryl' !
  17. Excellent work 'vlai23', the scaled down palace is perfect and scenery is also spot on....neat photography to get the right angles too.
  18. WONDERFUL engine and rolling stock (though the tanker is a little on the thin side ), still I this train. Fantastic designing 'Pepa Quin', Brick On with The Piano Guys.
  19. I know for a fact that the mark up the Marvel sets is not as good as city or creator, just like SW, etc., perhaps it's not just Lego but the original license holders....the movie companies that hold some extra cards and have a great say in the cost/sell price of these sets ? We can think Lego is just being greedy, but other external factors might be effecting the price of Lego.
  20. Beautiful creation 'Jameson42', that hill must have been a challenge eh ? The lighting sets it off totally !
  21. Like I said I'm not up to speed on SWTOR stuff. Pity they don't include a helmet as an optional extra ?
  22. Being an OT fan, I'm not up to speed on SWTOR so I wiki'ed it and a question....why has the Republic Trooper no helmet ?
  23. I have been told that in Oz, there are no more large sets, no more cafes, vet clinics and houses.....plus they were not getting any more in the country, why is a good question ?
  24. Right and a ten year old would know about BTTF or Firefly ....maybe Zelda being a video game, but then the wild west....good guys vs bad guys that's how kids see it so it would work ! Though I don't remember any of the Cuusoo creations being aimed at children ?
  25. Cool TRU sale, perfect as I saw at a TRU store they had the exclusive fire transporter truck for 99.99 ! (okay, so 20% off that is better than nothing I guess )
