  1. I wonder if there will be a 'stupitidy' ability for the Battle Droids...
  2. Nice MOC. I was working on a bigger dual sceane, But most of my bricks (and space) is being used by my bigger MOC-in-making. Yeah, I can play a chunk of Battle of the Heroes on Piano and Trumpet.
  3. I actually have some action pics, but they're on my laptop. I'll get them on tommorrow.
  4. Nah, LEGO just doesn't think ahead.
  5. That Ski-Cross was a big dissapointment for Canada... I ws hoping for all three of our guys on the podium.
  6. I have Season 1, but have only seen 1 episode of season 2, Senate Spy, which was horrible. I haven't seen any others, though, because I have dial-up and can't watch them on the main site.
  7. I'm using my rifles as camaflauged snipers.
  8. I believe you are wrong. I don't have a magnet set, but I've heard they're the exsact same as any other figure, the magnet is in a stand they... well... stand on. I do have a keychain, however, and you can't take out the chain.
  9. Ooh!!! Too bad magnet sets aren't available in stores...
  10. Actually, it was an Indy quote.
  11. Or they'll be leaked.
  12. To start off, this convoy was about a two-month long process. It all started with an Indy 4 wallpaper I got, featering the cliff sceane. I comared it with my newly-rebuilt DUCK, and was shocked at the difference. Thus, I began the journey to get these fixed. Here's all of them together: First up, is the DUCK. As said before, this is the vehicle that started this whole shipbang. The first thing I did was fix the hood: I found the original hood ugly anyways, so it was a small loss. Basically, I began with flattening the surface. Next thing I did was move the position of the gun. A while later, I added the bulb lights, instead of the earlier version. Here's a shot of the shattered window: Next I changed the entierer. I despratly wanted to change the horrible seats, but I didn't want to widen the vehicle. So I came up with this simple solution: stick a 2x2 piece under one of the seats. It actually helped me a lot. I also widened the back, which opened up the space. Another change, was the fact that the movie varient had flat sides, instead of the raised ones seen in the set. I gladly took out the stickered pieces. At last I took to the back- which was quite simple. First I removed the tire and gas can, then I raised the lights, and added the bar piece. One of the main challenges came to me from a friend of mine, when he showed me that there were no tire rims on the real DUCK. After a few days, I finally came up with a satisfactory way to replace the rims. Next was the Jeep. This was substatially easier: the main change had already been made by me before. This change was the driver's seat. About a month after I had gotten the set, I replace the single seat with the double, and still kept the basic shape. Now, my main challenge was colour. I had to change it from the light-grey German jeep from Raiders, to the darker Russian Jeep from KotCS. It took a whiule, but was done nonetheless. Another signifant change, was the front. I dispised the tire rims that were in place before, and could not use them for the Russian jeep. I decided on this versian, which keeps the roundness, but also adds the shape I needed. For the back I added the rims I had taken from the DUCK, and also included a sort of 'tarp' seen in the movie. I also took the stickered pieces, and put them here. To finish the jeep, was the sides. Originally, I just included 1x4 thin pieces I had taken from the Jungle Cuter. But while watching the movie again, I noticed something I had not noticed before: A spare tire on the side! I frantically added this on surprised that I did not see something so obvious. Next was the truck. This was only seen in a few sceanes, so changes were sparse. I kept most of the design, but made changes in a few key areas. The main change was- again- the hood. The original truck had a very simple design. But I had to scrap that- in the movie is a very prominent tire, which gets split in half. Also, I added the little screen Indy opens to make way for his bazooka. A smaller change was the back. I added the gate commen to most trucks- including the movie one- but was starngly not in hthe LEGO set. It wasn't a hard change either, just a few small additions. The final change made to the truck was the roof. The KotCS version had no roof, so I took it out. It was soon replaced by a bar that Indy grabs at one point in capturing the truck. Lastly was the Jungle Cutter. It was difficult- of course- because you barely see it in the movie. But there was one major change I made to the vehicle. The main change was the addition of the second turbine. I'm surprised they didn't include this in the set instead of having a ridiculus cave. The turbine itself was simple, but I had to make this look 'natural' and sloped. The cheese slopes helped a lot with this. The main problem with the slope, is that I wanted to keep the explosian feature. Eventually, with a few tricky maneuvers, I did both. Also, I lengthened the smaller pipe. Another change was the mysterious back wheel. If you look closly, it's in the movie, but it has little purpose. In fact, I have no clue WHY it's there, but I added it anyways. Action pics: Blowing up the Jungle Cutter Indy attempts to take control a Russian jeep. Meanwhile, Spalko nearly kills Marion with the machine gun. Sorry for the fuzzyness of the pictures. Comment are welcome. Enjoy!
  13. "What happens at eleven o'clock?" Nice work. It looks incredible.
  14. Thanks!
  15. YES! Fourth gold, and- of all people-JON MONTGOMERY! This is awesome! And now, France is fith... bwah-ha-ha...
  16. I won't even bother asking why they're with the Army men... Good find!
  17. Okay, the second version is posted. And PLEASE, don't make such harsh comments.
  18. It would. But if Indy 2 is anything to go by, it could also be a hassle. I forget if I've said this before or not, but I hope the don't use the hub worlds. Those were complicated, and the levels were short.
  19. Hmmm... My Bithday's November 3rd I write series I entend to publish someday. The Legonater is my alias on several sites. I'm addicted to LEGO and Starwars. I desperatly want LEGO to make LEGO Stargate. I love old shows (Get Smart, MacGyver,) I am currently making a giant MOC.
  20. I don't see why people hate Boba so much. He's extremly LEGO-ish. It's nothing new compared to the clones, why are you all so upset?
  21. OKAY! OKAY! I'll put these guys on a weight loss! Truthfully, I just got Season 1 a short time ago, and haven't made the changes yet. Itr was kind of rushed by a few people asking me for pics. I will change it sopn.
  22. Last time I checked we were tied in third... ah, well.
  23. At last! I think my comp hates me... okay, please comment.
  24. When do we start?
  25. Thanks.Now it won't let me shrink it .
