Yes. No.

Wow, this auction is full of goodies. It contains one of those very old visors even! Congratulations with winning this.

This is a fine idea James and I'm curious to "hear" how it works out. Most probably some of our reviewers academy teachers or students are interested in this. I'll make sure they all know about this thread.

Vig. 19c Check out this amazing find made by Legohaulic. It's called "A pirate hideout". The entire gallery

Nice ship! My first ship didn't look as good as this one. And for being a medium sized ship it certainly can defend itself with those cool custom-made guns. I really like the last picture you've posted. For some reason it seems a bit misty making me think that the ship is on the ocean and mist is starting to form.

Thanks for all the very good suggestions. There are several suggestions in this thread that I never could have thought of myself. Since I already have around 150 Imperial Guards (my English infantry) I would prefer to use these new ones as something else than line infantry. Right now I'm considering using the new ones my English cavalry. That would be ideal since my English army doesn't have any cavalry yet. However, I'm not sure the shako's are historically correct for English cavalry units during the Napoleonic wars. Alternatively I can use them as Highlanders. But in this case I'll have to remove the shako's for sure with busby's (and I would like them to keep the shako's). Marines is another possibility. Or making them some foreign nation fighting with or against the English/French. Once these become available I'll buy a bit more that 30 of them, that's for sure. So they will never become the bulk of my English army. I'll keep the old ones for that. I don't have these books and I would love to look at them. I'll try to pass by in the near future.

Welcome at Eurobricks!

Welcome at Eurobricks! But I'm a bit confused and don't understand which trays you are talking about...

Read my friend

Students can join at any time and follow the courses. The academy teachers are available 24/7 to help you. By now you should see an extra forum which is hidden except for students and teachers.

Is it correct that you are living in Japan? It's very strange to hear how slow EBs is for you. Our server is located in Germany and for me (I live in Belgium) Eurobricks is loading incredibly fast. Really speed of light. So the problem is for sure not our server. I doubt if there is anything we can do to improve this for you. This thread is producing some useful feedback. I'm planning to do a poll like this one for the entire Eurobricks forum in the near future and maybe put it on our headlines to maximize the number of people giving their feedback.

As JopieK already said, we are happy to grant you access. I'm looking forward to see your work in the academy. Welcome!

I've got a DSL line of 4M and everything loads very fast.

Did you already read "The Silmarillion"? The book is still waiting on my self. It seems rather heavy. That being said, I love the 3 LOTR movies! Welcome at Eurobricks!

Hi there, welcome at Eurobricks!

This must be one of the best reviews since the start of Eurobricks. You've managed to make this much more than just a review. Great story, great pictures, amazing review Btw, I've moved the review from the pirates forum to the H&A forum.

We've all seen pictures of the new Pirate soldiers. They look great and I love TLC for releasing them! BUT... I've already collected tons of the old (classic) Imperial Guards (red coats) and Imperial Soldiers (blue coats). I'm using the old redcoats for my British armies and the old blue coats for my English armies. What should I do with these new soldiers? Mix them with my redcoats? Put them in some kind of special regiment? I'm looking for a historically correct "solutions". Advise is needed! The new soldier: The old Imperial Guards: The old Imperial Soldiers:

Maybe, but this isn't a contest to demonstrate pirates having good taste

Nope, I don't think he went too far. I don't see any staff member telling him something inappropriate had to be removed in that entry. Our members are allowed to post adult content on EBs. It's all in our community guidelines and in the post you have to accept when creating an account on EBs.

:laugh: This is the funniest topic I've seen in a long time. Sorry, I don't mean that I think it's funny your chicken died, my condolences! But the subject itself is funny. I don't own any chickens, but my father does. They look a bit like this one:

This is an adult community, so do your worst

This is not only a fantastic MOC, but also the way the pictures are taken is amazing. A big WOW for this work of yours!

I would love to see some of those sets reviewed. Welcome in the academy! I'll send you a PM to answer the rest of your questions

All the things I like a lot in one MOC! I didn't have a vacation in 2 years so it's MOCs like these I need to give me a little vacation feeling. I'm imagining myself lying next to that fine female minifig

I had better not drunken that bottle of rum before the interview Thanks for the comments guys. It's funny hearing my own voice.
