Hmmm well a ATT would be good but a jabba's palace if done right could be fantastic!! I have long wanted a bigger and much better one than the first, that was such a let down.
-
Accuracy you say? So that explains the AT-AT drivers helmet being a re-painted stormie one? Our perhaps the re-painted Tie Pilots helmet? Our perhaps the fact that General Veers dosen't have a new face? and i wont even go into the colours on c3p0 or r2. Get where i'm going here? Lego dosen't care about minor differences, one of the first rules of business is to cut any unwanted spending. That's why lego dosen't do minor details like fins unless they really have too. Oh and cut the wacko crap or else.

TDK Joker, Jim Gordon plus TBA Ra's Al Ghul customS
Vader replied to Vader's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
Thanks for all the feedback guys, it's been very helpful. So with that in mind, here's an updated version. As you can see i have made the eyes alot smaller, these are now the same size as the offical fig version. I have also cleaned up the decal abit, as i felt the last one was abit dirty. Now as i was on a roll with the Joker i decided to have a shot at Jim Gordon and Ra's Al Ghul, first up is the Commish. I have tried to give him a look like in BB, though the hair colour is oof as i couldn't find a Brown flat top. And now for Ra's, i have tried to keep Ra's close to his look in BTAS. This i found hard as he has these sort of black bags around his eyes, i have kept them for this version but might lose them from the next one. The hair is still a work in progress, but i feel im getting there. And just for fun: So comments again please, all are welcome. -

After re-reading what we know so far i still cannot see why the SA name is being kept a secret, the only reason i can think of is that it does involve some sort of shock. One thing that has been overlooked is the question of who his mother is? We know that a few female jedi's were on Kashyyk during the CW so i wonder if any of these have a link to him.
-
Thanks for the hook up Simon, though there's not alot new it's still great to see.

Even though i don't like the site, wiki has a very good list of those that died and survived order 66. Quite a few of these have shown up in the Dark Horse comic series, which gets permission from Lucas on what jedi they can use. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Order_66 You are correct Jax it could be yet another lie to protect some great secret, i still don't think he will be related to but i believe he could be some known jedi's son. I love the rumor of him being Qui-Gon's son, now that would be great. Interesting fact to know is that the jedi Kota who's in the game, was not supposed to be in the first drafts it was supposed to be the ghost of Qui-Gon.

VS it nows seems like alot more jedi escaped order 66, alot of jedi have been shown in the EU and Lucas seems fine with that. So would of had plenty to hunt down. Hmmm Jax that's a good theory you have their, but i doubt even Lucas would be stupid enough to have the apprentice as 's son. Plus as the events of the game are set around 10yrs after ROTS i believe it would make anakin only a boy when the apprentice was born. So far weve had a few good theories on who the apprentice could be, one good one was that he was Qui-gon jinn's son. However the following seems to be more likely. His mother died defending Kashyyk and his father (called Kento from what i have read) is killed by Vader again on Kashyyk, after which Vader finds the boy and trains him. finds the boy on Kashyyk and decides to train him as his apprentice, due to his strong link to the force. This is supported by the fact that we know the first level of the game has on Kashyyk, also thebelow pic has come from level 1 of the game. Which looks like it shows a jedi about to be killed by , as such i think it's a good bet that we get to find the boy on level 1 then the story will develop from there.

That would not be allowed, even if it was the prices are most likely different and as such a crime would be committed. Earlier tonight i had an interesting chat with the Manager of my local Toys R Us, he told me that they have the new Indy sets in stock. However he was unable to sell them, as Lego had sent out a message to all their stores telling them not to until closer to the films release date. So perhaps this is happening all over

Walmart is an American company that bought out our shops called ASDA, so if you have an ASDA then theirs your Walmart.

TDK Joker, Jim Gordon plus TBA Ra's Al Ghul customS
Vader replied to Vader's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
Judging by how many people have said the same, i have to agree that the eyes need to be made alot smaller. For some reason i always make them too big, no idea why Don't have any other pics i'm afraid, but ill post some at some point. The Aayla isn't mine i'm sorry to say, it's someone elses design. However the Vos and Vader in my sig are both my designs which were then printed directly onto a lego fig, so in other words they are the same as regular lego figs and can't be damaged like other customs. I use a product reffered to as Green Stuff, it's used mainly for models etc. It's very flexible and will not break even when dropped from a great height (i know this as i dropped a fig from a second floor window once ), it costs alittle more than most puttys but it's well worth it. What's also great is that it dosen't need any sanding, it's just really smooth to use. I use Coral Draw for all my decals, it's a great programme and gives tons of extra options. The pic i posted isn't the best i'm sorry to say, the face also has patches of little flesh showing through. But the flash on my camera seems to have made that really hard to see, anyway thanks to all and i shall be posting a newer version soon. -
Lord to The Emperor.......... Master may i present you with the latest pictire of the Ultimate Weapon........ Excellent Lord , i look forward to the finished version. Soon Master soon......

It won't happen because it costs TLC money, that's the bottom line for TLC. They give us aslot but minor differences like that are just not worth the price.

For the last few days i have been trying to do a new face and hairpiece for the joker from The Dark Knight, so far i have come up with what's below. The face is a custom decal and i have tried to mix the proper joker fig with the look shown in the movie, the hair piece is a custom that i have been working on. So far i'm very happy with the hair but still feel the face needs work, so suggestions plese.

Ahhhhh now this swamp vehicle looks great to me, when i first heard lego were making it i was worried that it would be a poor version. However im pleased to see that it's not, even though i'm not a great fan of those treads. The trees don't really add anything to the set which is a shame, still the parts are welcome at least. The entrance is good though it could do with being bigger, but i guess we can moc that. I really like the commie general, he looks like a real bad megablocks
-
Great review Alex After seeing these pics i'm really looking forward to getting this set, i really like how lego has designed the gas tank that's just so good. Finally a different shade of green for the croc, it's about time and more than welcome. The vehicle looks good and a fun build, though i'm not that fond of that commie tree

Good find So as you have found them all, i do hope that you will give us a review of them? -
Temple of the Crystal Skull (7627) on the shelf
Vader replied to Deinonychus's topic in LEGO Licensed
Well said!! People need to shut up and stop complaining about who gets what first, every year it's the same. Some sets are released in europe first and some are not, it's not the end of the world it's just a matter of time till we all get what we want. Now lets get back to the sets themselves. -

Vader replied to Deinonychus's topic in LEGO Licensed
Hmmm great to see these sets hitting the shelves, but so far it looks like a US release only. Still only a matter of time until were all indy building -
It's her from what i can tell, if not then i would be shocked. Anakin and Shmi belonged to Gardulla the Elder: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Gardulla_the_Elder, she sure looks alot like the hutt that was with jabba in ep 1.
-
You are a SW geek, so you should know that Anyway a decent Throne room would be great, but i doubt it could ever live up to what we would want. It would have to be huge and include a rancor, so i can't ever see was satisfied. Still i would like to see a new painted jabba, that would be cool. Oh and anyone notice the duel between obi and ventress looks like it takes place on top of jabbas palace?
-
Their was a jedi hutt in the EU, there was a few artist pics of him with his lightsabre, that was pretty strange to see Errr mate Jabba wasnt the last of his species, in the EU many more hutts have appeared.
