This Silver Centurion figure is amazing

I want this figure but I already pre-ordered the game through Amazon because 20% off pre-orders for Prime members, think Gamestop will just sell me the figure or should I wait and Bricklink it?

I would try to buy it if GameStop has any extra. If you want to buy the figure it's probably going to be $20, minimum. The price might drop initially when there are more of them but if Iron Patriot is any standard it'll just start going up in price forever since it's a rare polybag.

I just asked my friend who works at GameStop and apparently his store only received 2 of them. Both of which are already gone. :(

It seems to be pretty random how many they get. I asked if they had extra at the one I picked mine up at, and he said they didn't even have enough for all the people who had pre-ordered. On the flip side, I have a friend who works and GameStop and he says they often get so many they just give the extras away.

That wheelchair piece is amazing, as is the baby.

The Angry Birds sets look better than I expected. I won't buy them, because I don't have the space and because that license feels out-of-date even with a moving coming, but they do look pretty good. Especially the pig minifigs.

The Friends amusement park sets also look amazing, especially the hot dog truck, but I really hope this isn't in replacement of what now seems to be a yearly release of a CREATOR amusement park set. I have the old grand carousel and the more recent fairground mixer and ferris wheel; I'm dying for a legit roller coaster set or something.

Its larger than minifig scale, but not too much. You can squeeze one into the cab, but the tracks are as wide as a fig is tall.

I haven't been into the Architecture line at all but seeing that Capitol makes me suddenly want to grab the White House and the Lincoln Memorial as well.

Well guys, I finally did it. The wings are not nearly attached to the body as sturdily as I would like but I honestly have no idea how to make it better.

Pretty hyped that I got it all together and it works just like I designed it. Even if I had a 1x1 tile left over at the end (I'll write it off as a spare part).

Not to get all progressive-politics-DnD-SJW in here, but that set with all the minifigs in the park? It is loaded with good poo poo. Obviously there is the guy with the wheel chair and a smile on his face, but you've also got three working women (the painter, the groundskeeper and the woman with the briefcase), a man who is not to macho to take his baby for a walk in the park, and two pairs of a boy and a girl playing together. One on the merry-go-round and the other playing soccer.

I've completed designing and rendering my latest MOC. At 2,368 parts it's my largest MOC to-date. I present the Tirrhinum-class Destroyer.





The four wings can open and close, exposing charging solar arrays for the large beam weapon emitters at the bow.

The hardest part was sticking to piece/color combos that were viable for a real-life build, should I ever decide to actually buy $240 worth of parts to assemble the thing. I'm not entirely sure it could support its own weight, as it has a few weak spots and I haven't designed a stand for it, but then again I often massively over-engineer what I think will be a weak spot and find it isn't necessary anyway.

I must have all of those Mixels. Wonder how many duplicates I'll be getting to make the big ones too.

Also it's a bit odd that the volcano in the Volcano set looks kind of rubbish when they're also releasing a big-rear end volcano lair that looks nice.

Nexo Knights looks pretty nice in general. More hoverhorses always appreciated too, the design is great, I wonder how easy it would be to bricklink one up though.

Ghost Rider looks very good. Who is the orange Green Goblin looking dude though?

I don't think lego has to conform to accessibility standards as giant fleshy hands can descend from the sky and get minifigs where they need to go. It's like god, except one that actually helps out.

Why would you need duplicates to make the larger mixels? I thought each series combined its three small mixels into one large one.
