I don't think you realize you just quoted a CROCODILE BOAT WITH A TAIL and called it less crazy than Ninjago. Ninjago was crazy, but let's not try to call this Chima thing any less so.

The Samurai Mech is one of the best sets out this year, IMO. The new Ninjago doesn't look quite as good, though. Chima's got croc-boats and lion-tanks, so it's kind of a tossup for me which is weirder. Sockser posted:are those little porcupine and hawk people? I think they might be lions and hawks/eagles/whatever.

It's that time of year again, time to purge some Lego sets! I'm selling off all of the following: Aliens: 7050 - Alien Defender 7051 - Tripod Invader Castle: 7949 - Prison Carriage Rescue 7947 - Prison Tower Rescue 7187 - Escape from the Dragon's Prison Batman: 30160 - Batman Jetski 6858 - Catwoman Catcycle City Chase 6857 - The Dynamic Duo Funhouse Escape 6860 - The Batcave Ninjago: 2509 - Earth Dragon Defense Pirates: 6239 - Cannon Battle 6240 - Kraken Attackin' 6241 - Loot Island Star Wars 8092 - Luke's Landspeeder 8089 - Hoth Wampa Cave 8017 - Darth Vader's TIE Fighter 7754 - Home One Mon Calimari Star Cruiser 8038 - The Battle of Endor Atlantis 8057 - Wreck Raider 8061 - Gateway of the Squid Indy 7625 - River Chase 7626 - Jungle Cutter 7682 - Shanghai Chase 7622 - Race for the Stolen Treasure 7199 - The Temple of Doom Power Miners 8957 - Mine Mech The above sets are all complete with instructions and stored in ziplock bags. I also have 7946 - King's Castle, 7571 - The Fight for the Dagger, and 9473 - Mines of Moria. They are all still sealed in the box. I'm a little hesitant to ship them, because the boxes are huge. I'd be glad to ship them as is, but they might be pricey. I'd also be happy to ship them without the boxes, but still sealed in the original baggies. The price on all of these sets is pretty flexible. I'd prefer to not take it sideways up the pooper on prices, but I'm aware that Bricklink exists and I don't expect anyone to pay eBay prices. So, long story short, make me an offer on any/all. The more you want, the lower I'm willing to go (I hate hate hate packing things up and taking them to the post office). Anything that doesn't sell here is going into a "best offer takes it away" Craigslist ad. PM me or email me at frictiony at yahoo. edit: whoops, forgot that 30160 - Batman Jetski is still sealed in the original baggie.

There don't seem to be any humans at all in Chima. They're all little lions and hawks and stuff. That's a first, isn't it? I guess even Ninja Turtles will probably have April and Casey.

I think it's a cross between Ninjago and World Racers, so I dunno. The more I looked at the sets the less confident I was with my "less crazy" comment. I guess we'll see if there's a second line that combines a crane with a... snake guy...? (Seriously who thinks of martial arts action squads and then dumps a wrecking ball crane into it?)

It does look like its 'arms' and 'feet' are made of tinier boats, as well as a tiny boat on its back, along with two 'eye' cockpits. Plus two little jetskis on the side. BOATMANIA.

You must not be familiar with Power Rangers. Really I think that's what Ninjago and this new line are all about. Big ol' themed mecha and poo poo since Mega Bloks got the PR license.

The free Lego in the Sun today, the Quinjet is awesome. Such a neat little build with a really cool shape, I think it's my favorite mini-model ever. Also I managed to pick up an extra one for anyone who needs it, UK or abroad. PM me with details.

A little late to the party but I would be interested in any spares from the UK lego freebies if you are willing to ship any of them to the states. I have $$$ that all of you love so much to buy more Lego with.

I've been getting back into Lego, and for the first time ordered from the Lego Shop (Winter Cottage). You guys may already know this, but I was really pleased to see that they threw in a Series 7 mini-figure *and* the Halloween accessory set! Made me feel pretty warm and fuzzy.

So many kids are going to be crushed when they find out that it doesn't actually transform. Or rather, it does, but the transformation sequence involves approximately 800 steps.

They should really adjust the age rating on those things from 7-99 give or take a few years. Still not going to stop me from buying toys aimed at 12 year old kids obviously.

No idea - there wasn't any reference to the halloween set on the receipt or anywhere else (unlike the series 7 minifig, which had a little flier explaining that it was a freebee).

Since I missed this the first go'round because of my dark years I am definitely picking it up this time. The A-wing and B-wing have always been my favorites. Too bad i'm poor right now Or I would get that B-Wing that is out. Have they ever made a smaller (less expensive) B-wing?

I wish they'd do another take on the AT-ST. The standard sized sets don't look very good, and don't even look like the AT-ST that much, and the UCS set is just ugly as hell with studs sticking out everywhere.

I wish more people would post their own creations here. That's why I subscribed to this thread in the first place. Anyway, this is a crosspost from the Transformers thread where another goon posted his Legoformer, and I was inspired to actually photograph the one I built in June/July. Imgur Album - Cyclops I like to think of him as an Autobot search-and-rescue turned Decepticon search-and-destroy who is resentful that he has to transform to shoot anyone since in vehicle mode, his gun is pointed at his own head.

Tried to make an F1 car on LDD but really didnt get anywhere. So from now on I am going to stick with trying to complete my sets with the step by step instruction. Got to admit that Transformer makes me wish I was better at Lego!

That "Galaxy Squad" theme I mentioned a few pages ago seems to be a real thing. A setlist has popped up on Eurobricks: 70700 Space Swarmer 70701 Swarm Interceptor 70702 Warp Stinger 70703 Space Mantis 70704 Vermin Vaporizer 70705 Bug Obliterator Also, this one picture. It looks like an Insectoids redux, or whatever that 90s theme was called. Kazzah fucked around with this message at 06:20 on Nov 4, 2012 |
