  1. I still can't believe they are making this game.
  2. Probably the biggest toy show in the US next to the Toy Fair. The San Diego Comic-Con is July 23-26. Hasbro in particular loves to show off their second-half of the year line as well as the 2010 stuff. And I think that Lego shows some stuff too.
  3. Overall, I am not very impressed. It doesn't have nearly as much space as the Imperial Star Destroyer. Also, the figure count is pretty weak compared to the Star Destroyer. While it does have 2 new figures and one hard to find (the gunner), I still think a new Jedi could have been included.
  4. I am really confused about what you do. I am playing it right now, but nothing is happening.
  5. I don't really see how the Toy Story line that will be coming out in the future would affect a WW line. Toy Story has all of two cowboys/girls. While Woody is from the Wild West, the movies don't really have any WW setting. I honestly don't see any connections.
  6. I don't like how R2 has a grey head. It doesn't match. Also, if you think those 8 legs were hard, try the Troll Battle Wheel. That is pure torture.
  7. I am pretty disappointed with this set. Other than the new King, it is pretty boring.
  8. I will add a piece here and take one away there, but I try not to mess with them. I am a bad MOCer, so I leave the set design to the professionals.
  9. Now all we need is some Endor BP's. Ewoks, Rebel's, and Imperials would all be nice. Also, a new set similar to the new Hoth set would be nice. This is definitely an area Lego can capitalize on. I don't think the poles on the Speeder Bikes are different. I just think on the one for the Gunship, the fat piece goes near the front., and on the new one is goes towards the back.
  10. This is kind of an odd combination of sets. I would have thought that Lego would have done this back in 2007/2008 with these BP's and the Imperial Dropship. Still, nothing wrong with more BP's.
  11. This is really a great little set. I love the fact that it is pretty much a BP except with a more substantial base. It is a little pricier than a BP, but the Tauntaun makes it all worth it.
  12. I am not really that impressed. It just doesn't appear to be very big. The figure's included are nice, but the set itself could stand to be a little bigger. It seems like the good guys get the nice bases (King's Castle and Dwarf's Mine) and the bad guys get the bad ones (Skeleton Tower and Troll Fortress.
  13. Very nice set. I really love the minifigs. This set has 6 new figures, which is almost unheard of. I really love the Rebel Troopers. The only drawback is that they included an Imperial Trooper rather than officer. Also, the AT-ST is a little disappointing, but overall the set seems amazing.
  14. It looks like they took the jet pack that was attached to Boba's and Jango's helmets, and added a neck ring.
  15. Actually, we have. The box pictures have been posted multiple times. However, I think that this is the first time we have seen these sets built in someone's house.
  16. This would be great, but I am pretty sure another company owns the rights to Star Trek toys.
  17. Probably. The French helped the Americans during the Revolutionary War, first with arms and supplies and then with an actual army and navy near the end of the war. The last time the British and Americans fought was the War of 1812. After that we didn't do a lot until we saved their butts in WWI and WWII.
  18. I don't mean to sound like a know-it-all here, but that is not true. The Americans traded with France, but that was simply for economic purposes. America was not allied militarily or politically with Napoleonic-France. They stayed out of the war completely. The War of 1812 was started because GB imposed trade restrictions on the US for trading with France. Also, GB was imprisoning US merchant sailors and helping the Native Americans against the US.

    Very cool design. I like the mix of Castle and SW.
  20. I am confused. You only seem to have one French soldier, and there are more British and Americans. Plus, the American's didn't fight Napoleon.
  21. I am really excited about this movie. I love Christian Bale and love the Terminator movies.
  22. That is true. I Just like how in First Contact they have to stop the Borg from assimilating Earth. There is a specific thing they have to stop. In the new movie, Nero just wants to destroy stuff and it doesn't even matter that he went back in time to do it. I do like that they created a whole new timeline though (without Vulcan), so they don't really have to worry about staying totally true to canon. They covered their butts and can do a lot more stuff now.
  23. LOL. Some people are into it more than others.
  24. I think that because this movie showed the characters in their very beginning, I think character development was paramount to making them into the characters we all know. I just feel like Nero could have been included a little bit more in the movie, for being the bad guy. It just feels like for being the main antagonist, he wasn't explored or even included very much. He almost felt like a subplot to the characters like Kirk and Spock. Escape the Fate. I have to disagree that it is the best one ever. I feel like it falls in behind VI: The Undiscovered County and First Contact. Those were simply epic. I feel like First Contact used time travel in a lot better way than this movie. Nero accidently gets sent back in time, while the Borg plan it and go back to change something rather than just get revenge.
  25. Ok. Not really sure what these have to do with anything, but they are really weird.
