    Let's all settle down. I think we can all agree that you should look into shipping costs from any BrickLink shop (or from other sites as well) before placing an order, especially if the store isn't on the same continent that you are. While there are some dishonest people out there that might try overcharge on shipping, I don't think we can generalize that any one group of people are more likely to do so than any other. Before this gets any more heated, I think this particular part of the discussion can be considered closed. Let's move on. Thank you.

    It's a BrickLite. It bought mine at Brickworld last year but I know LifeLites sells them. I hope to take pictures soon of how the TARDIS is built, when I do I'll add them to the first post here.

    I had the Doctor in my Rio Bricko display for the past year and the most asked question about him was "Where's the TARDIS?" Here it comes now… Only one 2x2 jumper plate was harmed in the making of this MOC. The hole, along with a short length of fiber optic cable allowed the light from the main part of the model to make it up to the top light. The printed tiles I bought from Citizen Brick. They made tiles for the windows too, but as you can see, I made other plans.

    Talking about the possibility of a figure we may get is completely within the bounds of this topic… as long as we're not just posting wishlists of figures we may want. This however is not. If it was meant as a joke, to cause other members to react in a harsh manner, that's trollish behavior and it will not be tolerated a second time. If it was meant seriously, it adds nothing to the discussion but animosity and derails the topic. So either way, don't do it again.

    There will be NO trading in this thread. The member that started this is being dealt with. I was able to get the Hulkbuster set last week and I agree with J2G, the Hulkbuster itself is really well-designed. With the number of Mech suits and poseable brick-built things like the Mixels TLG has made in the past year, I thought that the build might seem tired, but it really wasn't. I love the way Stark fits inside and the posture of the whole thing really evokes a Hulk-like bearing.

    The offending member has been removed now and I will shortly be removing posts from other members that only refer to his posts. I would also like to remind everyone to use the report button if you encounter someone like that again. I've had some issues in my personal life that have prevented me from, for lack of a better word, patrolling as much as I should here. If a post or member gets reported any moderator can see that and take care of it.

    But do they use the same numbering system we do? Since they live upside-down, do they count backwards?

    Discussion of Ideas and its processes is already happening in the Embassy part of the forum. When a licensed product gets approved, then it will be discussed here.

    Welcome to EB. Feel free to post a thread about your custom in the Minifig Customization Workshop part of the forum. This thread is about the current Marvel sets, though. EB is a big place with many different topics and focuses.

    To let everyone know, Baseball21 is being dealt with. Please continue actual discussion and pay no more attention to his posts.
  11. CorneliusMurdock
    Stop derailing this thread or I might arrange a private meeting between you and him. And I warn you, he's grumpy when awakened early from his Odin sleep.

    I'm sorry for being really busy lately with real life situations and not having the time to keep the discussions on track here. Until things do settle down for me, reporting any issues will get faster results. Movie discussion does not belong in this thread unless it directly relates to sets. Since we have the sets in the wild now, movie speculation just clogs up this thread unnecessarily when people come to this thread to talk or read about the sets.

    Let's keep the video game discussion to a minimum, please. That's the subject of a different thread.

    I guess they don't teach geography in Canada anymore… There are two continents in the world; North America and Not North America, which is sometimes referred to as Europe.

    This has been/ is being discussed in Community. I will lock this topic. One last caveat to those buying these things. The "original" figures that Decool makes are not their own design either. Each one is based on a design stolen from somewhere. The ones not produced by LEGO are designs by either individual private customizers or small custom companies. Decool takes these designs without their permission and mass produces them.

    What I really need for Christmas is a nap. I sure hope Santa brings me one...

    As a kid I remember thinking the original JP toy line had brighter colors than the dinos in the movie. LEGO's take on the new ones remind me of those old toys in that way.
  18. CorneliusMurdock
    We've been asked by TLG to refrain from sharing or hosting images of the new dinosaurs that have leaked. Apparently it is causing some woes between TLG and the licensee. PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY OF THESE PICTURES. Thank you. I'll let you guys know when we have post-able pictures or you can contact me with any questions.

    Was a bit busy this weekend but I'm catching up on things. Sites like those you mentioned use their frontpage for news even tangentially related to LEGO if they feel it could affect the LEGO community. And this is absolutely fine. This, however, is a topic specifically for discussing the sets. We have other threads for those kinds of things and those that want to keep up with those news items or discuss them can find the appropriate thread. I think it's pretty clear but I'll spell it out. Appropriate discussion in this topic: 2015 Marvel sets. I generally allow some minor speculation about what we may get after 2015 just because it's hard to enforce otherwise. Inappropriate discussion: ANYTHING ELSE. I don't want to see wishlists, set ideas, or straight up movie discussion. If people continue to post movie spoilers in this thread, I'll have to start doling out punishment for such behavior. I don't want to do that and you guys don't want me to do that. So please stay on topic.

    Please keep opinions on actors out of this discussion. That's what Culture and Multimedia is for. This thread is for discussing 2015's LEGO sets.
  21. CorneliusMurdock
    Thanks for the kind comments. The power of positive thinking! We're still talking about it. I think it is a big improvement from last year, but I'm not sure since it is a big parts investment for me. I'm torn right now.
  22. CorneliusMurdock
    This is not the topic for such things.
  23. CorneliusMurdock
    Pure movie discussion doesn't belong here. Check out the Culture and Multimedia forum to talk about movie developments.

    Hinckley and I collaborated on this display for Brickworld Fort Wayne this past weekend. Welcome to the town of RIo Bricko! Hinck's Flickr My Flickr

    Since LEGO has now cut ties with Shell, there's nothing left to discuss here. Especially since it looks like the conversation has stopped being friendly. Topic locked.
