  1. “Project Deleted - This project has been removed for not following the Guidelines” Whaaaaaat!! Whyyyyy? I had a tiny hope this great project would make it Come on Lego we need more animal molds, no I am not talking about friends or duplo
  2. Thank you
  3. Hopefully they will make it up to us by having at least a couple of seagulls in the next modular
  4. By the look of these sets, one could think that the designers were using drugs when they made them But I guess the hole point is that they shall look like a kid made them from his/hers random pieces, tough a rather talented kid I would say. The sets have a lot of nice pieces and minifigures, so should be great for Moc’ers? I will not buy the sets, but may BL some civilian minifigures.. On the animal front I notice a chicken in a new colour and a new shark mould, in addition to a parrot, a horse, two crocodiles, a frog and a white chicken! Not bad at all
  5. 10674 Pony Farmsounds promising To bad the pictures are removed! Looks like Lego is working overtime too remove leaked pictures, they are beating me to it all the time nowadays
  6. The only complaint I have with this set is that we did not get he promised seagull apparently We can only hope the realise there mistake and do like they did with the admiral daughter’s extra dress in imperial flagship 10210
  7. You are probably right; it would most likely be oversized anyway. Some times the most unlikely theme pop up with new animal moulds (e.g. prince of Persia), so a had a tiny hope as I said for this theme as well I think the eagle is fine, but since there is nothing on this side of middle earth that is close to that size, it is of no use to me. I am mostly a collector so part packs is of no use to me either, but I am glad you liked it and fine some use for the sets
  8. I had a tiny hope after seeing a legendary lion beast in a chima episode, that they would be new animal moulds usable in other themes
  9. You forgot the mermaid! She will fit in nicely with the pirates
  10. Yes, but as I said was not the new shark body only in the picture?! I think the sets came with a new shark head, but not the new body. Maybe they had too empty the stock of the old mould, before they could release the new. It is a lot of sharks in those sets so it makes sense.
  11. I was watching the new movie trailer earlier and noticed a crazy cat lady there. Hoped she would be in a set with a new cat colour and then this picture pops up I was also hoping for the mermaid from the first trailer, so that is good Overall I do not think this is one of the best series. It has a lot of good pieces, but few complete minifigures I can use
  12. Is that a new shark body Looks like the one that was in a picture of 60013 this year, but the set came with an old shark right?!
  13. I was pleased to see it was available in Norway this year as well It is not so great at last year’s set, but it is a nice addition to the winter line. So I ended up buying the winter village market to get it. Normally I would have waited with buying that set until I was abroad in a “cheaper Lego country”, but then I would have had to buy the free set expensive from brikclink
  14. The tree and other important things “in the middle of the city” could of course be made complete. Like the top of tower of orthanc has four spines not two, even though the rest of the tower is split in two
  15. Good to know that at least some people actually know what the fox really is saying
  16. Sorry if this is mentioned already, but a smart way to make Minas Tirith cheaper is to “split it down the middle”. The set would be half the city, if you want the whole city, then buy a second set and build it mirrored. The two halves look more or less the same and it is a good selling point
  17. Thank you! It wound be a dream come true if they realised a city line with a zoo theme like the ones they have in duplo. However the most likely theme to get a zoo now aside from duplo is of course friends. That theme is popping out new animal moulds at a fast rate, but they are useless in more “realistic” themes. Way to “round” and cute, in addition to the “friendsified” face paint
  18. I know about the other sets you mention off course, but I was under the impression we got a new exclusive released in January each year in connection to a ongoing Lego series or often as a “grand finale” set for a series that was about to “take a brake”. Like the sets I have mentioned in the previous post. This set does not fit in well with the previous years sets, but maybe you are right and I am taking about fruit
  19. -2009: 10193 Medieval Market Village -2010: 10210 Imperial Flagship -2011: 10217 Diagon Alley -2012: 10223 Kingdoms Joust -2013: 10937 Batman: Arkham Asylum Breakout 2014: 10241 Maersk Line Triple-E ?! I hope I am not right with my assumptions I was expecting a LOTR or Hobbit set, but crossing my fingers for a castle or a pirates set
  20. Thank you
  21. One of the better friends animals, but still to cute to use in the city setting I see from the set list that it will be at least a lamb and tiger as well, which is rather frustrating. It is one thing that the duplo series has the whole Noah's Ark, but the friends series are popping out new animal moulds at a fast rate as well. Animals we need in city, castle and pirates, but are way too cute to use in more “realistic” settings. “Close, but no cigar”
  22. Thank you Hehe, despite the heading it is not my favourite either I am from eastfold, but I work in Oslo, yourself?
  23. Thank you Sorry it is just a bad joke, I am from Norway In Norway we believe that everybody in the world has seen “what does the fox say” on YouTube, since it has been on the news every day the last two weeks here. Thank you
  24. Hopefully it will land on the roof before the set hits the shops It looks like a fantastic model! Probably at least a top three, but I have to build it before I can rank it among the other modular’s
  25. Hi! Anders from the land of the fox here I have been following Eurobricks since CC brought me out of the dark ages some years ago, so maybe about time I registered. Since I do not have the time or talent to MOC I mainly collect and build sets. Mostly in to: -town sets like modular buildings and winter village -train sets from metroliner to horizon express -castle and pirates sets with yellow head minifigs I am a biologist, so I also try to get at least two of every animal in minifig scale. Hopefully we will get a lot more moulds in the years to come. Roedeer and dachshund would be my first pick, however not very likely any time soon. Why Lego has not made at least sheep/pigeons for town, reindeer for Christmas/winter village and lion/tiger for action/adventure is beyond me. We will see what the future sets bring us
