    I know (I mentioned it in the beginning), but considering the fact that it's not canon (SW lore claims they are thermal detonators) it's more like a joke, albeit rooted in early development ideas...

    Stormtroopers with lazerswords!.. Why not? This is what the cylinders on their backs were initially supposed to be! After all, hunting lightsaber-wielding Jedi is much easier that way. Besides, it's quite a nice explanation for why their E-11s are designed for left-handed usage... ...So, you ask me, why didn't they use them in the OT? Well, because there was never a situation where the usage of those swords would've made sense. Sure, they may be helpful sometimes, but overall limited in usage. I also imagine them being somehow worse than lightsabers. But, hey, it's just a joke theory I came up with (although I take it seriously...)
  3. Beautiful! A very cute little Falcon
  4. Jonicle: mask of Phantasmagoria Jonicle 2: the Legend of Man (stupid) Jonicle 3: Shadow's web Jonicle: Ledger returns ... Did I get the competition right?
  5. I feel like they were trying to do the only right thing while squeezing Lady Gaga in. The movie may be a disappointment, but what else could Arthur do in his situation? I'd give the movie maximum 4/5, but I don't think it's so bad either. IMHO, it would've been better without Gaga's character, despite her somehow pivotal role in the plot. Or maybe without the singing that doesn't really add much...
  6. I'm pretty sure the designer had this in mind while giving Tails the "I'm gonna kill you!!" face. Though it may be just a reference to Sonic Adventure 2, parodied in the video
  7. I saw the leaked images of the Cyclone set. It's a well-designed and -built set that somehow looks very crude. The rounded nose is the only thing that hints at the walker's airplane origin. Metal Sonic is well-designed, with dual-molded arms, but still manages to look weird to me
  8. The builds are nice, but if I were designing the ARC cannon, I would've considered that it was mounted on an AT-DP with AT-ST-esque chassis: Though, tbh, you did redesign the legs, so please forgive me...
  9. BEST. FANMADE. SPEEDER BIKE. EVER!!! It may not be the iconic 74-Z, yet it's awesome! Building it around the new motorcycle frame was a very good idea, and the rangefinder pieces work great as controls. You manage to nail your speeders perfectly The 'natural' part also is very beautiful. Wish I could build trees and plants like this... Oh, I just don't have that beautiful stump piece of yours...
  10. Well, he was in Legends - I only took it further... In Canon, he also was Imperial Moff but was killed by Saw Gerrera before he could tell Palpy that the Princess of Alderaan was Padme's daughter. Palpatine gone - carry on... Thanks! Well, thanks - but, even though you didn't say it, I must point out that the guy in the dark tan uniform isn't Brandei, though he looks similar. I didn't think of a name for him while posting the build, but now I want him to be Major Enric Pryde (even though I hate Sequels, I find the usage of oldschool First Order officers an interesting idea). Brandei is somehow the one of Thrawn's captains I memorised best (unlike Dorja and the others), and I always imagined him being close to Rax
  11. Thanks! I am planning to build the Batmobile and, probably, the Batboat from TNBA
  12. Looks great for a MOD of an official Star Destroyer playset. Good job!
  13. @Feuer Zug, thanks! Your Gee Bee model Z is very nice. The I-15 aircraft had a licensed copy of the Wright Cyclone R-1820 F-3 engine with a Townend ring
  14. That's a cute little race plane! Looks very nice for its scale
  15. I designed new, much better undercarriage doors for the La-15: Together with the La-11, they were the last mass-produced aircraft, designed under Lavochkin's direction:
  16. Alongside with the Curtiss F9C Sparrowhawk, I consider the I-15 to be one of the most beautiful biplane fighters of the 30s with an air-cooled engine: streamlined, gull-shaped upper wing, elegant wheel fairing... The I-15, nicknamed 'Chato' in Spain, became famous during the Spanish civil war, being the most iconic aircraft of the Republican air force, flown by Spanish pilots, Soviet volunteers and international mercenaries and outperforming He-51B's and C. R. 32s of the Frankists. This particular I-15, however, isn't from Spain - it was the personal aircraft of the air defence of Moscow district commander Ivan Ulyanovich Pavlov, who was a WWI veteran and Russian Civil war flying ace. Starting with his I-4, all aircraft flown by Pavlov were painted silver, with red chassis, rudder and wing struts, a red banner with a 'Za V. K. P. (b)!' (for the A. C. (b) P. - All-union Communist (bolshevik) Party) and Pavlov's personal emblem on the rudder - a bent arrow, the former emblem of the 1-st Airplane squad during the Civil war, where G. S. Sapozhnikov also served. The I-15 was his last airplane - he passed away in 1936 from his Civil war wounds. This biplane MOC is not my best, yet it still looks nice and is accurately at 1/32 scale. Designing the undercarriage was tricky, but relatively quick, yet it took some time to make it sturdy. The cockpit fits a pilot minifigure and has an instrument panel and a rear-view mirror:
  17. I reworked the cockpit interior for better accuracy:

    A very beautiful and cute Lego Harrier! Despite the proportions, it's instantly recognisable. The curves and landing gear are awesome
  19. A very convincing custom then, even moreso than Firestar Toys
  20. Now this is a very beautiful build! And the bubbling swamp looks absolutely gorgeous! Great job!
  21. I was absolutely unsatisfied with the plane's original undercarriage, so I reworked it to be better and more faithful to the source material:
  22. This is a small MOC of the Egg-mobile from modern Sonic the hedgehog games, from Sonic Unleashed onwards. It may be a little too small, but the Egg-mobile's size is somehow ambiguous. This is the best solution for an Orbot minifigure I came up with as for now:
