    Black Manta is too obscure... Yet we've already got Nova, Iron Fist and now Power Man. Life is too cruel.
  2. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Agreed-- been looking for the Penguin set all week, and haven't seen a trace of the Steamroller anywhere...

    Man, my son got this set for Christmas, and I cannot believe how FRAGILE IT IS!!!! The entire structure is supported by a series of 2-wide plates underneath, many of which are gripped by Only the two front studs of a 2x3 slope. It's like the original Jabba's Palace, only flimsier. This may be fine for display purposes, but for a boy (who takes great care of his toys, btw) who wants to play with it, it just doesn't want to stay together. I have an ENORMOUS AFOL collection of my own that spans over 30 years, and I can easily say that, at least structurally speaking, this is some of the worst designing I've ever seen in a Lego set. ESPECIALLY at such a high price point ask this. And you can be sure I will be contacting TLG to express my disappointment as a loyal, high-traffic consumer.

    Mos Eisley, you say??

    Curious to see the Arctic color scheme-- according to the site "lightningtiger" awesomely discovered, the Arctic Ice Breaker ship is a bright orange for high-visibility.
  6. Mr. Elijah Timms
    That'd be me, Tiger! I'm looking forward to a frosty Arctic summer!!!
  7. Mr. Elijah Timms
    GLORIOUS!!! Seems like somebody knows more than the rest of us...! Thanks mssm
  8. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Yes! More please... Also, is that another Wolverine box art at the very bottom?
  9. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Dear TLC, PLEASE do not make an Arctic sub theme without including a proper DOGSLED TEAM in one of these sets. PLEASE.

    ARCTIC???!!! Put me down for the entire line!!! Also love the train station! Want to see the trains as well... Wondering if the price of the Yellow Train will plummet as these are unveiled? ARCTIC!!!!

    Built the Riddler Chase last night, and I must say, the new Batmobile was a really enjoyable build. The designer did some things I'd have never expected. Great $30 set, no question.
  12. Mr. Elijah Timms
    In reference to the new Race Car, I agree that it's one of the nicest build designs I've ever built, using such small and unique parts. If there's anything I don't like about it, it's the spoiler assembly-- the robot arms just aren't working for me. The spoiler sits too far away from the body itself. Otherwise bravo TLG,
  13. Mr. Elijah Timms
    I agree. That service is in place to help people with a legitimate claim to a missing piece, and it works very well as it is. People who abuse the system are only going to ruin it for the rest of us who play by the rules. Please stop using it as your own private rip-off service.

    Well dang nabbit here's ol Wiley as a regular normal frontiersman!
  15. Mr. Elijah Timms
    WILEY FUSEBOT for the win. Love this fig, even if I'll be swapping out the head and hands to make him human later tonight. Some great figs in this series.
  16. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Maybe we can start a drive to collect and sell all of the bricks we'll have from horrible vehicle designs that we never built because we just bought these Spidey sets for the figs? We could put it towards a trust fund for the kids of whoever signed off on these weak sets...
  17. Mr. Elijah Timms
    There's one obvious way to let TLG know our collective distaste for the Spidey-vehicles... I mean, who really needs a Power Man anyway?!
  18. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Just picked up the Bug Obliterator at half price, thereby completing my collection of a theme I was originally uninterested in. TLG, you could've had a gold mine on your hands here if you supported it if even a fraction of the way you did Chima!! If you pushed the Green Team bed sheet sets or the Solomon Blaze torso zip-up hoodie, this theme could've been an absolute success! Oh well, Happy Christmas to me!

    BatCopter shown as available in store only on TRU's web site: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=30181376&cp=2255956.2273442.2255962.3696486.12320507&parentPage=family Could be out in the wild this week!

    As of March when that Spidey-Copter set, I'll no longer be a Marvel SuperHeroes completist. No way I'm wasting my hard-earned money on that joke. Love the Cap set, and I'll prob. get the Hulk lab for he Taskmaster alone.
  21. Mr. Elijah Timms
    I find myself suddenly obsessed with Galaxy Squad sets, just in time to get them for amazingly great holiday deals. That said... I'm on the fence with the Warp Stinger. Anyone have any pros or cons on the finished build?!
  22. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Built the 60055 lime green Monster Truck, and luckily only paid $6 for it with the BOGO. Man, what a small set-- I've built poly bags that feel more substantial. It's not a bad model, and my primary reason for choosing it so early was that sharp lime green racing torso-- but that MSRP $10USD price point is set grossly too high.
  23. Mr. Elijah Timms
    HUZZAH!!! Thanks so much Peppermint!
  24. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Wow... Power Man, Falcon, Nova, Iron Fist. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we'd end up with these guys before the FANTASTIC FOUR or the X-MEN.
  25. Mr. Elijah Timms
    Huzzah! Hats off to everyone for making this place so much fun
