Oh please don't say that. :'-( If you want to refer to the Aliens designed by H.R. Giger you really should mention them in regard to an actual Alien movie (any in fact; I like them all) , not that travesty... :-X

Maybe you should ask them... *wacko* (It looks like edge detection.)

There was a man who had a pet dog for years, and they were the best of friends. The man fed the dog well, took him for walks, and the dog scared away salesmen for him, and always brought him the paper and his slippers. (No slobber either. ;-) ) One day the man had a headache so he asked his dog to go and get him some pain killers. Since he had no change he gave the dog a $100 dollar note. Hours passed, and the man started to worry. He went to the pharmacy, but the dog was not there. Instead he found him in the pub next door drinking a cold beer. Several empty jugs lay beside. The man was astonished, "What... but... we have been friends for years! I trusted you! How could you do this to me?" "Well", the dog replied, "you have never trusted me with money before."

A few Australian members have noticed 7036 Dwarves Mining in Myer AUD $69.95... and they have a 25% off sale as well. I went looking for it yesterday but was disapointed. :'-(

But I went to the Hobart Myer just for that yesterday and it wasn't there.... :'-( Eitherway, I will repost this news in the sales thread for you.

Sorry, no luck. :'-(

Yesterday I got a PS3! *wub* Boobalishious booty! It makes me want to search for Stupendous Sales.

Great story! I was given two moon plates the other day from a freind of mine who has a quite decent old space collection that he hoards for no good reason... I really should offer to buy it off him. :-D The friend I mentioned above has a space monorail... *wub*

Great review Brickbitz! *wub* (And thanks to you too iamded ;-) ) Thanks also for the detail pictures of the new doors and windows. I really want this set and it's due in Australia any day now.... *sweet* Aside from just wanting the parts, I want this as the design of the main model has some great features; including stairs, the balcony... and the BBQ! :-D

What a great idea! The original version looks so nice... and this looks mean. *wub* The wings look better now, especially without the competition cannon. :-X

Yeah I figured that, but it seems a tad unfair to be doing a Sigfig Mech... of a Mech. It's pretty good! *sweet* It's a shame you forgot.

I think people are confusing "Like" with "I can find a use for this". For example I like the Lego version of Boba Fett... and I have in the past wanted an alien or two. Likewise, I wanted to own a Harry Potter mini-fig...so I could be mean to him. But as a person who thinks Harry Potter is overrated, I don't like it... It does seem that you like them though... :-P

He gets loads of encouragement.... positive and negative. X-D To prove a point once I spend an afternoon making a ship with his Lego and only his Lego and I regretted it as he then broke it into sections and then claimed it as his own work. :-/ I'm sure he'll get there eventually. :-P I look forward to it. I really should try and meet you one day... :-P

Welcome to Eurobricks.... and a second bonus welcome for being an Australian! :-D I'm actually considering moving to Melbourne... 8-|

Wow! That is nice! *wub* I've added it to my wanted list. X-D

Sounds like a fair swap. I'd go for it if I was you.

Please note that all the dates you mentioned were from Australian catalogs. Unless you are Australian you really should ignore the dates. *sweet*

:-$ Thanks! For a 3-5 year old, I think they are pretty good. I love the enviro house. :-P My boy (who is about 5) after watching Beast Wars season 2 was inspired by the giant head that Megatron became. At first I thought this was a good thing, but he just ripped off the head of a Piraka and told me "This is a head ship". :-| On the rare occasion that he does make something good it tends to be crashed by him half an hour later.... which leads me to my question; was this your decision to keep these when you were 5? If so I am stunned; you would have been a quite remarkable child... I wanted to keep a lot of my stuff but I always wanted to build more! :-P Eitherway you are so lucky to have these. Thanks very much for taking the time. *wub*

Strewth! 8-

Nah, that doesn't appear in a store for us until March. :-/

They were in the Aqua Raiders Lobster set.

Thanks! It shouldn't be too hard to make it on LEGO Factory. Most of the parts are current, the only old ones are the doors. I can partially disassemble it if you want. *sweet*

This is great Hinckley! *wub* I feel a bit silly not entering now; I considered doing something similar but I just couldn't think of a good way to do my head... Your solution is smarter! *sweet* The feet really make the model and shout "Fabuland"... but there still is a whisper of "Technic Guy". ;-) I am surprised though that you made the limbs so spindly; you have given it such a manly torso and it makes the arms look a bit weak... 8-| However since the torso is so well designed (especially the abs and glutes :-P ) you can ignore the small flaws quite easily. I look forward to seeing what you have planned for it! X-D

I recieved 7620 Indiana Jones Motorcycle Escape on the weeked. *wub* It's a great set.
