/signed so hard! This makes me recognize the extreme potential of Lego! And great job of utilising it, shutinc! I am blown away...

Welcome! I love Spain and Spanish! Such a beautiful language... qué tal? Yo estoy muy bien. I'm seriously pleased by having you here, Blastem! And best of luck with changing your username... I think the mods should do this for you. I mean, you could also have just deleted your account and created a new one called "Blastem" which would have resulted in just another inactive account on here. They should make an example in order to encourage such friendly behaviour of yours. Encantado, Blastem!

I agree that this one's pretty neat! I actually like the old Epi II one better, though. What do you think about those, the older ones I mean? They are quite cool, aren't they? More plastic with the eye slit and such.

It is kinda off-topic, but could anyone provide me with a BrickLink link to the head used for the MG34-bearer? It looks so perfectly German, that's pretty neat.

Are you kidding us? I mean, I totally respect your opinion on this but seriously that's one fig I really don't understand to be a favourite of anyone. That face is awkward if you ask me. THOSE EYES ARE CREEPING ME OUT! It's interesting just how much opinions sometimes differ. No offense in any way!

I certainly love the M34 and will most definitely get it. The new M4 is also great, yet the MG34 is cooler. I don't get anything out of the Sterling, though. It's a good Lego replica of the real Sterling gun but I don't get anything out of the latter either. (correct use of the word 'either'?) Cheers!

Original red and white BSB looks better. Although I have to admit that the design of the piano is spot-on, I would never buy it. Build it yourself as a MOC if you've got courage! Enpaz

I've just finished Animal Farm and it's . A good read I'd recommend to every single one of you! No, not you, look away IMMEDIATELY, but all of the others! On a side note, I want to encourage you to read Robert Harris. The Cicero series (consisting of historically perfectly accurate, yet very entertaining and thrilling novels) and Vaterland (Fatherland) are really top-notch. Who of you has already been reading books by him?

Happy birthday!

Just imagine stepping on that carpet and walking around on it a bit back and forth! Hear the Lego breaking and cracking and bursting in your mind...

That's a good topic! For me, I really can't decide on only one because there have been so many timelessly awesome ones. As Brickdoctor already threw in, the Forestmen are fantastic. Also, I really love the classic ninjas! The redcoat admiral is pretty much at the top of my "best minifigs" list. Additionally, the classic town pilot of this set is fabulous. So much about the older seasons. Speaking of the rather new ones, there are a few genius ones aswell: in Star Wars the Stormtrooper, Darth Vader of course (great fig!), the old Episode II clones (even though I don't own any, yet will certainly do sometime, they seem to be really nice) and the expensive Jango Fett. The new Boba Fett (along with the new Death Watch mandos, as it seems) is really, really, really great too. Oh, and do not forget the yellow-striped Phase II clone (Starcorps)! Maybe not just as classy as Darth Vader and comrades, but definitely a glorious fig. The best minifigs outside from Star Wars would have to be Indiana Jones in full gear and... ´*drumroll* this guy... no, just kidding, I mean the Spartan of course. I'd almost say the Spartan is the best fig ever. I don't, though, because there are all those others that can only be described with Bang! too. Cheers! Let's let the discussion rage.

I'm Enpaz and I like working in the garden. No seriously, I'm Enpaz and I come frome Austria. My favourite themes are Star Wars, Castle, Pirates and others that vary. I pretty much have a soft spot for action themes too. Welcome! Somehow I enjoy replying to "My name is..." threads: It's just so entertaining... am I weird? Cheers!

Thanks Aanchir!

Big Cam, let me assure you that I find your lack of faith disturbing!

Thanks for the Swedish great review! I find the set excellent. The pinnacle of the Atlantis line in my opinion. The Ancient Greece/Rome architecture is really nice. I also like the function! At any rate, the set's also a great parts pack. Overall, a must-buy for me.

Totally badass! Good job! Though I think I'd swap the hairpiece, Tamina's wig does look a bit feminine... and it's brown. Have you thought about using the classic black ponytail? Or black Dastan hair? Enpaz

Hello! Maintenant donne-moi un croissant, s.t.p... Jokes aside, happy welcome dede_la_fee! Enchanté! You know what, I've been to Paris last summer! Not that bad a city. Enpaz

I don't know and it does sound strange to me too. However, I have to say this is really not my field of expertise.

I already know it, but it's great anyway! Definitely worth sharing. "How about brick coverage?" "Keep on brickin'" - "What?" Hilarious!

Happy birthday! May you be reborn sometime as noble otters.

Thanks for those kind words. Reviewer's Academy sounds interesting. I'm in. Cheers!

I too want to join. Would you be so kind as to sign me up? :)

I would say, use your childhood ones as long as they are not badly discoloured. Bricks scratched-up are one thing, but white bricks almost tan or light grey bricks almost yellow (?) are an entirely different matter. That's my opinion about this. Cheers!

I also say get it! I have one: I bought it, deboxed it, built it and fell in love with it. And I've loved it ever since. A great set. And the new Boba Fett is to die for! No, not really actually, but he's indeed very awesome. Enpaz

Are you sure Lego wouldn't be allowed to use the Maersk colour for non-Maersk sets? I didn't know that Maersk Blue was patented. That's interesting. Cheers!
