Vader

Lord *vader* to Fett............... Yes your mission is still on................the empire wants to to track and destroy the one called patrick.......... your reward for this will be greater than any you have recieved before................Order has been restored my loyal troops..................

No theres not any stopper on the end of it, it just slots in but its held very tightly and dosent come out without some force being used. As for the white band i now believe its thers so people can have a tennis wear bruce wayne ;-) And your welcome for the review :-)

Yes yes all goes well!!!!!! GM *yoda* i agree its time for SD to be rewarded for his loyalty...........

Well you could try removing it but even if you did paint a new white line on the back you would still be missing a mouth.

Lord *vader* to Sir Dillon...... You have done well and speak the truth about that fat slug............But be warned delivering those burgers, therefore i am sending VM to you................he will deliver the burgers for you and if he survives he will be yours to order..........

One thing that really surprised me is that lego didnt print the white strip and lips on the back of the head, so that we have an undamaged bruse face.

Ahhh good you now see the error of your ways.................. soon i will send you on a mission and if you complete it then you will be a member of the empire!!!!!

The white strip is for when the cowls on the head, it gives the cowl its white eyes.

Try BL mate, mine took 6 days to get here.

Here you go yoda: And finally we have Bruce with his hippy white hairband....

Lord *vader* to VM.............. Know your role young one!!!!!!!!!! If i find you contacting others and forging orders then i shall feed you to the Emperors pet Wampas!!!!!!!!! Your chances of flying a Tie have been greatly damaged.................

Hmmmmmm strange that all these newbies keep coming here to join...............If i didnt know better i would think this ones been here before......... Lord *vader* to VM............ Oh yes i forgot to say dont touch those staffs.................... I will talk to my GM *yoda* about what ship you are to be given........................

Thanks for the kind words *yoda* , ok on to your questions: The grill tiles colour seems to be a golden colour one that i havent seen before or at least dont remember seeing. I did have the boat set but used most of it for parts once i find the piece ill try and see if that helps at all.

Ok well i like some others here feel its always best to have a few reviews of new sets (and old) therefore i thought i would add my 2 cence on the batboat. Well were to start on this little beauty, ok lets go from the top Ill start with the front and the cockpit. As you can see in the pic above the front of this boat is exactly the same as that of the last world city boat set, which is ok as that set was good however i would of preffered a new design. Ok now we have an inside look of the cockpit, as you can see we have a printed (yeah printed) sloped brick and a dark gray plate with handles for the Bat to use to control the boatand this looks good. Now the bad as you can seetheres not much else and then thers that green brick with technic pin but ill get to that later. One thing the cockpit does allow is for us to customize to our hearts desire. Above we have a side view of the boat as you can see we have some nice looking engines to power the boat and some wings attached to bat it up so to speak. So it looks good but theres a slight problem here in my eyes and thats in how loosely the engines move around, there attached to each other by a single bar so that they can move but it would of been better had lego used something alittle more tighter. The wings themselves move up and down but thats about all they do which isnt a problem. Ok here we have the back view, now ive pulled the smaller boat away from the bigger boat and as you can see we have a green technic brick thats used to attach the boats together, rather strange colour choice in my opinion but not unlike lego. Now this green brick does look out of place but at least its easy to change to a gray or black. Also im not sure on the modified tan plate i think most will also change this. Ok so thats the big boat done so how about the small one, well for me this boat is ok not great by along shot but ok. The main problems with it have to be the lack of any controls for batman to use and yet again the green bricks and technic pin hanging out of the back as pictured below. Here lego have used 2 green bricks which just seems silly to me, apart from that the boat is acutally quite nice and very well put together. Now on to Killer Coc's boat: Well what can i say about crocs ride, well how about for starters its all printed with no damn stickers yippppy. Just under the printed slopes we have a hinge that allows for the 2 slopes to be moved up and down slightly this in turn allows croc to fit in rather snuggly, he cant sit only stand but then thats ok. On the sides we have a rather different looking missiles ones that i dont think have been used before. For me they just dont look like missiles and just seem strange, they also seem alittle to close to croc for my liking. You may also notice that we again have green bricks with a technic pin sticking out of the back, now this time the green isnt so much of a problem but there seems to be no reasion for the technic pin unless of course you wish to attach it to the batboat. I can see how that has great playability but it just dosent look right to me, still the problem can be easily fixed by anyone wishing to moc it up. The rather pointless technic pin. Ok so onto the figs, well i think weve all seen plenty of pics of these but i have to say that the croc fig is much darker than i was expecting. This is a good think IMO, as for the batman well hes cool even if the helmet is way to big some how it just seems to work. Now onto the Guns!!!!! These are just beautiful :'-) Having wanted lego to make guns for what seems like ages im finally happy and very pleased to get some, whats best is that lego have not only given us guns but they have also made them look great and unlike the SW guns (dont get me started on those) these feel right and just make the figs look even sweeter. For this lego deserves a big pat on the back and a thank you. As for other accesories here we have pics of the bat gadjets: These like the guns are well made and fit the batman just right, though im not sure what the second bat gadjets are and what the hole in them can be used for. Now we come to the cuffs, when i first saw pics of them i wondered how well they would attach to the figs and if they would stay on. Well im happy to say that they fit tightly and seem to snap into place holding onto the figs arms just right. Well thats my review over and done with and i hope youve enjoyed reading it, feel free to ask for more pics or if you have any questions. Overall i like this set and am very please with it. As stated above it has some small problems but none that cant be fixed. I rate this set an 8 out of 10. So watch this space for another batman set review: Same Bat time, Same Bat channel.........

Lord *vader* to VM..... Yes enter but be warned you had better wipe your feet first.............Oh and once inside my chamber you will find yourself surrounded by my elite guards..........

Lord *vader* to vahkimetru............... You seem to be a a skilled pilot.............come to my SSD once there i will see what you can offer the empire......

Watched Serenity yesterday and thought it was good but i do feel it was overated.

Lord *vader* to all Troops............. The report of the starfish's demise cannot be confirmed therefore the hunt will continue............ Gm Yoda if that fat slob jabba or any other Hutt gives you any problems then tell them i will personnaly cut there bellys open with my lightsabre.............. Gm *yoda* who is this new vahkimetru wingman??? did you hire him???? if so i have yet to see the paperwork.......

Good job :-) it looks great and like the others said its grat that you didnt need any extra parts.

Lord *vader* to GM *yoda* .............. Those damn Gungans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I took care of them myself i love the smell of gungan flesh after a lightsabre has cut through it!!!!!!!!

Lord *vader* to GM *yoda* .................. I find your lack of progress disturbing................

The more reviews the better i say, i would rather read say 3 reviews of one set rather than just one this helps when thinking of wheather or not to by a set and gives you a more veried opinion.

Yep indeed i would love to see more MOC'S from the series.

I think you said it best yourself Cap "I know it doesn't have the vast appeal of SW or Batman" and thats the major problem, lego wouldnt touch Red Dwarf because even though its a great series its not that well known worldwide and not to mention that there hasnt been a new series of the show for a few years now. Oh by the way there are some custom RD sets on brickshelf including some custom figs.

So it seems animals are also attracted to Mr Solo.............. *vader*
