  1. I wish I didn't disassemble my CMF habitats.
  2. Based on merman's numbers, Lego seems to have kept PF under 1/3 of Technic sets annually. 2013 25.00% 2012 22.22% 2011 30.00% 2010 20.00% 2009 20.00% 2008 28.57% 2007 16.67% I think kids today like motorized and remote control devices. Our LUG did a display at a family picnic. I noticed some kids hung around my GBC much longer than the static models. The parents had to pull the kids away to look at the other stuff. They then sneaked back without the parents. Those kids will probably want PF when they're old enough.
  3. Welcome aboard, Octavian.
  4. Thanks for the review. I think those colors are an age thing. My young son has no problems telling the difference.
  5. Nice idea. What happens if you have to take a phone call?
  6. Received Mark Larson's lego sculpture powerpoint in email.
  7. The colour is orange.
  8. Happy father's day.
  9. Moved a whack of containers after BrickWorld.
  10. Using bricks to tell a story should be fine. You shouldn't use licensed characters. They can limited how far you can take your work if you don't have permission from the license owners. Best to consult your legal or IP department.
  11. It is no different than saying I cut myself, do you have a Bandaid instead of bandage or Xerox this document instead of photocopy. Brand names becoming part of common language. I can see where lower price is better for the parents. If your child gets invited to a lot of birthday parties buying gifts can get very expensive. Same as inviting your kid's entire kindergarten class to his bday party, loot bags get expensive too.
  12. Good work. I like how you have the Redcoats supervising the the Bluecoats and pirate workers. Workers are smiling too.
  13. That was quick for Boston. No comeback for Pens.
  14. It is not over until it is over. There is still opportunity to make a comeback. Might be a bit harder with the Bruins on a roll...
  15. I keep the flagships sets on display. Other less expensive sets some times end up as parts for MOCs.

  17. Cement truck.
  18. Some ParLUGment folks are coming to Brickfete from Ottawa. If you're interested in joining a local LUG, http://www.parlugment.org/index.php

    Car Talk

    ^Nice. Gotta love German cars. Replaced a leaky coolant flange in the VW. Had to disassemble quite a bit to get to it.
  22. Great job. Like your whale. Now to put on the peril sensitive glasses.
  23. Welcome aboard Staples.
