166% ? How is that possible? Even so, the villains are very good this year, and Thornraxx is no exception. Thanks for the review. I'm 166% offended.

I suspect most of these "viruses" are just files stored on sites that the scanner considers "bad". Personally I think scanners like that are 90% useless. They aren't fast or smart enough to pick new viruses, and they block too fast other stuff leaving you paranoid. I haven't run any virus scanners on any computers for years; I just always have systems set as a low privilege user so serious infection is impossible. As for the "Vista Internet Security" virus, or similar, it's not possible that you got it from EB; it is a trojan that the user has to agree to download and run. But if anyone does note a topic that triggers warnings please post them here. What OS/Browser are you using?

Left normally, but right when she's trying to avoid paparazzi.

That review was funny enough without the text! Even so this review has changed my opinion from "must buy" to "really must buy"! I want the whole line! BTW, in this photo... ...she looks so much like Natalie Portman. Ditto!

Cool set and you're a dufus.

Skrytsson has made a beautiful family feast scene. See more of the LEGO Alien Conquest MOC!

Without a doubt, this Demag H135 by Emilus is the best MOC I've frontpaged all year. Come for the Technic MOC, stay for the construction details!

On that positive note I think I'll be closing this topic. It's starting to get nasty.

I must confess I'd have loved that; I don't have too many of that rope piece!

Real sailors don't need that kind of stuff. I used to shun stairs whenever possible. Even so, I don't see how it would have worked. If they added the clip on ladders (which would have been realistic) the it would have been annoying to arrange when you put the deck back on.

What's wrong with the hinged 8x8 grill plates?

Very nicely done.

Thanks for the review! I like him much better than Evo... but I feel sorry for him having to handle Splitface.

Nice review! Oddly I'm simultaneously disappointed and impressed by the mask. Impressed by the smart design... but disappointed that his face shows from the rear. Aside from that though I quite like the set and when it arrives sometime next year I'll have to get one!

That is such a brutal steering method! Smart, but brutal just the same. I do like it though! Thanks for sharing.

Cool! I bought a MVR and the Ninjago set 2263. Thanks reporters!

I wend out yesterday.. but gave K-Mart a miss. Seems to have been a bad decision... I might have to go out now!

I don't recall that much left over, but I first made mine about five years ago... and I've rebuilt it since but it's always been from a bagged state. EDIT.Bricklink says no. You must have missed something; what are the beams?

It depends on how the rope is wound. If it's not in sync pay it out completely and the re-wind in the other way.

Thanks for the review! I like him better than Evo... but not by much. I'm very surprised you got an extra chain link; neither of my sets got spares.

So please tell me how I think. (...and be as disrespectful as you want.) If you're going to say I don't accept any changes then you've got me 100% wrong. All I want is a Batman movie that stars Batman. I'm not that hard to please. I even liked Avatar. It's OK, but it's doing the movie mistake and killing characters too easily.

Well I've applied already! A piece of advice for anyone who applies; all cover letters must be under 1289 characters. I found out that after I wrote one 3 times bigger...

I was doing a search for Galidor and to my surprise I found the official site was still live! I find this really weird... It's not just a case of being forgotten either as the headers and footers are current. Yes, I know this is probably just because it's using a shared template, but all the images are there too. Other dead themes such as Exoforce, Mars Mission, Indiana Jones, Power Miners, Scala redirect to the frontpage, yet 8 years later Galidor still lives! I wonder why? Does anyone know of any other dead themes that still survive on Lego.com? The only other one I can find is Bionicle. (If a moderator wants to close this topic I understand.)
