Re: Announcing Creations for Charity 2011

I know that "Creations for Charity" is an American thing.
I was wondering if a Canadian version of this fundraiser is potential.

Re: LEGO Star Wars 9492 Tie Fighter & Queen Amidala (LEGO 94

the bubble window for some reason doesn't really sit well with me.

is it because the roundness protrudes out of the pod or maybe it isn't closer properly.

Re: 2011 LEGO Alien Conquest

hopefully, ADU will have a base of some sort similar to the second wave of Space Police. and the aliens to have an orbital space outpost (similar to but not as lame as Squidman's pit-stop) and maybe able to transform into a ground tower.?? I know that the aliens already are pretty much done with veh...

Re: 2011 LEGO NinjaGo (Summer)

yeah...they all have the same body structure. The only unique thing about this particular dragon as pointed out is the size. What I am excited about is the Earth dragon. It's good for a dinosaur or space MOC.

Re: 2011 LEGO Alien Conquest

How good will Alien conquest be?
The sets look quite good but how does it compare to Atlantis, Space Police III or Power Miners.
Do you think it has enough juice to propel it into 2 or even 3 years?

Re: 2011 LEGO Kingdoms

i hope that their roofs are that deep green. If the lions castles are red, then they should be deep green. What would be really neat is for the dragon knights to have a fort in the forest sort of thing like the Viking fort supplemented with a few stone towers incorporated. It would be a better contr...

[Canada] Toys R Us - Up to 25% off

I think now is the season where Toys R Us does the bi-weekly flyer. Anyhow here is this week's specials. (March 11 - March 17) 1) 20% off "Pharaoh's Quest" and "Bricks and More" 2) BOGO 1/2 for Hero Factory (hence, a maximize saving of 25% if you buy two equally priced items) 3) ...

Re: 2011 LEGO Kingdoms

been a while seen i have seen raised baseplates. but the dragons do deserve something better than the tower. if they re-made the 1996 original dragon knight fortress with the current dragon troops. that would be worth buying.

Re: 2011 LEGO Kingdoms

i find it slightly strange that there is a lack of royal knights in the sets...but I welcome the peasants.
hopefully there will be a strong enough sales to generate a third wave

Re: 2011 LEGO Harry Potter

hogwarts looks ridonkously lame...not much playability and likely an add-on for last year's release like the chamber of secrets for the first hogwarts. However, at least chamber of secrets was somewhat impressive. This isn't.

Re: 2011 LEGO Alien Conquest

I'm actually surprised how bulky the Earth Defense HQ is. Comparing it to the agents trailer or the world racer truck, the walls are actually brick built rather than technic beams and large plates....very reminiscent of classic space. You would think that the Vic Viper would be more protected in its...

Re: LEGO 8805 Collectible Minifigures Series 5

i see that they have toned the sports to a degree and threw in some cultural figures.
apart from the fishing pole. the circular shield is being used to a large degree as well.

any chances of it being incorporated into the next castle line after kingdoms?

Re: 2011 LEGO Kingdoms

These new Kingdoms sets are great. I love how they are displaying them on the printed bases. Very excited for the chickens, I've always wanted those. Love all the colours and prints for the pigs and horses. Are those a bunch of new weapons in the blacksmith shop? New axe and sword, among others thi...

Re: 2011 LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean

I'm actually considering of buying the whole line. Imagine what the zombie faces will do for apocalego.
and I really like the fact that more "ethnic" groups are included.

Also if Kingdoms had a set of similar quality to the lighthouse, that would be sweet.
