General Conversation #1

Well I remember the villains having robot arms, but that's a bit different. I do see what you're staying, though.

Also, lol, Lego being original my posterior.

=P

Lego recycle loads of themes all the time. You know what I wish they would do? Bring back the Johnny Thunder sets. They were my all time favourites, I was really annoyed I missed out on all of them but Orient Expedition (but then, I did get all the Orient Expedition ones anyway )

Agreed, I love the Johnny Thunder sets, they were my first experience with real lego. The only other sets I had bought before that were pretty much all of the Jack Stone sets. I had a plan to buy certain JT sets sequentially, and I had it down to a science based on when I got my allowance, when I would have enough for what, and I even included tax.

Come to think of it, if I did something like that today, people would probably think I was obsessed.

And back then I probably was.

I have always been obsessed with Lego, my favorite themes where Power Miners and Mars Mission (you can see I am into rocks). It would be great if they could keep at least one theme going (besides Star Wars) for at least a few years. I used to spend every last dime from my allowance to buy Lego sets (am I crazy ), I still buy them often but normally I save up for a while and get the big star wars sets or go to Pick-a-brick or Bricklink and build my own thing.

O know what you guys mean. When I was younger I was kinda *cough*very*splutter* obsessed with Lego. My fave themes were Mars Mission and Dino Attack (I probably spent a day messing with the huge copter).

As for recycling themes, Mars Mission was based on Life on Mars and Power Miners was based on Rock Raiders. Not sure about Orient Expedition or Johnny Thunder.

I'm listen to Robots FTW as I write this, just felt like sharing.

Just went to the Lego store and I was not going to get anything, but then there was a giant UCS R2-D2! I am weak!

Hello. for those of you who don't remember me, I'm Ariklego. I'm currently making my annual visit to the site to add a random and annoying-because-it's-inconsistent-with-what-everyone-else-is-talking-about post before leaving for another year.

...no, I don't plan on leaving for another year. let's just hope reality goes according to plan.


well, a quick report on my current status as a Mech designer. believe it or not, I am, in fact, building some things. *everyone gasps* after spending waaay to much time stuck between mowing down enemies with my Galil on Black Ops, reading book after irresistible book (and thankfully finishing the series), and doing some IRL builds, I've finally pulled myself back to good ol' LDD for some more Mech time. projects so far including ironing out flaws in a few older Mechs (most notably the Grenadier and Corsair), developing a few newer Mechs (particularly a quadrupedal "weapons platform" Mech that can support MBS weapons), and, inch by inch, making little bits of progress in the mile-long journey to completing your... erm, I'm not even sure we can call them Easter presents anymore. :S

anyway, bye-bye, see you all again in who-knows-when.

Ok, good.
Allthough, personally, I don't remember Han Solo ever saying "Don't get your shorts in a knot"

Need I say more?

lol just now discovering mechwarrior? Great series, and I'm really lookin forward to this one for sure. Its a Mech MMO, its mechwarrior, and the dev team isnt a bunch of chumps like every other Mech based MMO to come along so far.

Well I've heard of the series before, though I haven't played or even taken a look at any of them up until now. Though right now I'm wishing I had...

Mechwarrior, huh? Pssshh, I'm waiting to turn 18 so i can play MechHero. Pretty much the same, i guess, except that it is a strategy game instead of an RPG. Thats what i need; a good, old-fasioned, Command-and-Conquer style, strategy game. Then i'll be happy. Any recommendations?

nope. crazy as this may sound, I've never played any Mech-related game in my life. aside from piloting around AT-STs and other Star Wars walkers, the aforementioned Mechwarrior trailer was my first experience with Mechs. that might explain why I always state my Mechs as being so slow compared to everyone else's.

Now Completed! Production to begin soon, pre-order now!



...so, how am I at advertising?

Shouldn't that be 'wolf-anthro' Mark I, Arik?

Hi there guys! I finally managed to get a little free time on my hands, so I tought I'd say hi here!

I'm still building, tough not as often as before, but I already have tons of new creations...I just have a hard time making the presentations for these MOCs

And btw Arik, nice advertisement!

not quite. I'm not nearly as technical about all that as Rich, and Werewolf has a better ring to its name anyway.

ED: Arik can call it the "Werewolf mark 1" if he wants In fact, i perfer that to what you said; It Flows better.

Arik: It looks AWESOME! I can't wait to get my proverbial hands on it!

glad to hear. all I have left is to design the weapons. I was thinking sort of a pair of SMG-ish weapons and maybe a sword or other melee weapon.
