75356 Executor Super Star Destroyer - Eggs-eck-you-tor or Exxy-cute-or ? Youtubers keep pronouncing it as the former and it makes it sound like a ship for doing important space paperwork.

I think canon it is the former, I used to call it the latter too when I was a kid until I learned otherwise

That ship is the the executor of Vader’s will! But not in the way you think.

Clarence posted:75356 Executor Super Star Destroyer - I go with the former, based on the fact all Imperials (at least in the OT) have a British accent, and that's the only pronunciation I can imagine Peter Cushing saying.

Yeah I have always heard it pronounced as the former. Although imo either way is fine unlike ~Tantiveee~

Clarence posted:75356 Executor Super Star Destroyer - The only IPA transcription recorded on wiktionary is "eggs-eck-you-tur" It's a word most commonly used for "executor of an estate", so, like, paperwork like you said, but technically it can mean anyone appointed to carry out a task, which does fit with Vader I always wondered why they didn't call it Executioner

I don't know if it was intentional on the creators part, but I always saw it as a bit of a gag like it's pronounced "executor of an estate" and sounds like something the executives travel on, so it sounds classy and official, but your mind immediately goes to "this thing executes motherfuckers" (unless an A wing flies into it) Much like many OT ship names, I don't think it was ever said on screen in the original movies so it doesn't really matter.

I find it funny since I handle estate planning law poo poo. I’d like to think I could justify a ride like that.

The Ninjago city sets would be a sweet base for a cyberpunk city build.

I mean I already think of them 100% as a cyberpunk city

It's cyberpunk without the overarching dystopian malaise, imo. Blade Runner for kids.

Cyberpunk is a type of dystopia, imo. Probably more accurate to say Ninjago City takes inspiration from the aesthetics of cyberpunk.

IDK, toilets that flush shits into the streets seems p dystopian to me

I can see the cyberpunk comparison. I think it is more an Edo period mixed with modern Japan mixed with Fantasy elements. So you have ninjas and robots and dragons all mixed together. It seems like cyberpunk but if viewed through that other lens it makes a bit more sense.

Flyinglemur posted:Is there another option to order display cases than Wicked Brick? Specifially, the cases to display multiple speed champions. Something like this I used Kingdom Brick Supply to get my Falcon stand. They show some Speed Champions displays, though they're all out of stock. They're actually sourced from iDisplayIt. They're a bit cheaper per car, but they aren't wall-mounts.

10316 - The Lord of the Rings: Rivendell Pieces: 6167 Price: $499.99 71799 - NINJAGO City Markets Pieces: 6163 Price: $369.99 LOL, just LOL. I know the cost is usually based on weight + factors like minifigs, big weird pieces, IP. But c'mon. 4 piece difference for $130. Hahaha. Jeez. Don't even look at the Razor Crest because that becomes an absolute joke.

$130 per sale straight into the pockets of whoever owns lord of the rings these days, that's a tidy profit!

They couldn't even include a little tile to be the astromech?

Cojawfee posted:They couldn't even include a little tile to be the astromech? In the X wing there's a shiny silver stud (which I used for missles on the wings) which goes where the light gray ingot goes. It makes a decent astromech dome considering the scale. But Z-95s didn't have astromechs. Well, according to Wookiepedia some did but I don't see it.

Slugworth posted:City Market is way cheaper per brick than a standard set though, right? Also, I guess 2K announced 4 seasons of battle passes for LEGO 2K Drive, which means I think they're just trying to include every modern game design sin in one game: - Season passes / preorderable DLC - Premium currency - Microtransactions - Battlepasses + premium battlepasses - Always online, even when playing single player - Core features (Brick Packs for the car designer) paywalled in the premium battlepasses - "early access" (get to play 3 days before release if you buy a premium version of the game) And all in a full priced ($60/70) game with two additional price tiers for digital content packs!
