Carbohydrates posted this thread with its first title, someone (a mod, presumably) changed it to "The LEGO Thread: Something AFOL" and then someone (else?) slipped the extra S in sometime later.

Bophf posted:If anyone wants the other set, or just separate minifigures, I'll be happy to trade em or sell them for what I paid: $2.99 each. I don't want to be like the jerks on eBay trying to get $6 in profit off of one rare minifigure. If there's no takers, we'll just be happy making bizarre scenes where pop stars, ring masters and pharaohs co-exist peacefully. If you don't get any takers of a more local nature, would you be willing to ship a complete set of series 2 to the UK?

Captain Invictus posted:Jesus christ, those nunchuk handles. Those are some truly awesome bits. I can't imagine how the leg would be welded to the boot if they were considered just one part. Unless someone can come up with an example of two different coloured pieces being irrevocably joined together, I think they have to be separate.

Gravy Jones posted:Not sure if this is of interest to anyone but someone on Ebay is selling all 4 Heroica sets plus the carry case for £25 + £10 postage. Used but like new with boxes and everything. I saw that one. I looked at the carry case, but apparently it won't hold all the pieces if you have all four sets.

Fairly sure that set's a knock off. I'm sure they're disinterring the lawyers in Billund as we speak.

smackfu posted:Here's an interesting review of the BttF set. At the end he builds the original Cuusoo model and shows it side-by-side with the official Lego one. The Lego set is better than I thought, especially from different angles. Yeah, I was disappointed when I saw the official Lego version revealed, but seeing them side by side I've no idea what I was thinking.

Do printed bricks usually show this much variance within a run? Does the way the white text sit so high on the tape on the brick to the right mean they made a new print run but didn't check the one thing they were specifically trying to fix?

xzzy posted:Slid? Registration has been a problem with printing ever since four color was invented. Even printed bricks in the 80's had minor variations between each piece. No, I meant in hypothetically commissioning a new print run with the same mistake in it. If both bricks are conceivably from the first run, it just means that the problem is that the people sending out replacements didn't check why they were sending out replacements, which is more understandable.
