How open are you about your Lego passion?
I definatly have felt embarrassed about it. Currently, only my family knows about my collection. But even they think it is kind of strange. My mom actually told me tonight that it was a waste of money when I went to Target to by the ARC 170. I never told anyone at school, and since I'm 18 and finishing up high school, I figure why bother now. (Though everyone does know I am a huge Star Wars fan). Its just the whole collecting toys thing that would throw people off. However, next year I am going to college and I hope to begin to atleast tell some of my close friends that will be going with me. The school is a very math and science based school (mostly engineering degrees) so I'll feel more at home with my fellow nerds and can't wait I think the thing about LEGO is that people just remember what they played with as a little kid. The simple, colorful city sets and the big 1000 piece boxes they would get of random pieces, building red, green and blue airplanes and robots. Not many know of the whole online community and thought process that goes into building MOCs and how sets are now vastly different than what they were ten years ago. Also, to the people who ask for a gift receipt when buying LEGO, I do the same thing

LEGO.com Official Pirates Page Has Appeared
Well, the Power Miners site is already up. Which is a surprise that the Pirates site isn't up yet. But that might be a sign that they are putting some effort into the site, with some nice bios of the pirates, soldiers, and some fun other stuff. I'm sure it will be up within the next few days if not maybe hours.

LEGO Pirates - fictional or realistic?
Definatly realistic. I was going to start collecting the castle line, to get a change from Star Wars, but once the Goblins were put in, I decided I will just wait till the next line of castle comes out. So I'll definatly be getting the Pirate sets, lets just hope they don't start making zombie pirates...

On the AAT box, if you notice, it comes with 3 super battle droids rather than one shown on the prelim pics. And it also looks like it comes with 2 normal battle droids, it shows on the top of the box. Just thought I'd add that.

That list does sound good, except for a few things 1) The Palpatines Arrest set needs atleast 2 if not 3 more figs. And I hope it comes with the Blue Imperial Guards, as I would love to see thos. 2) There is no way we are going to get ANOTHER Falcon. We just got one a few months ago. It is possible for a new normal Falcon (not UCS) but I still don't see it happening 3) The Venator has 20 FIGS! That seems a bit much. I could see them putting that many in there since it is 10th Aniversary, but something just seems strange about that. I do like that line up of sets for summer, but it just doesn't seem intirally true.

How do you keep your Star Wars collection?
Well, for my LEGO that I use to build MOCs, I have them all in bins sorted by color. Then where I keep my built LEGO sets (mostly Star Wars) I have 3 shelves in my room that I pu them on, then some on my nightstand and some more on my dresser. I also have a large shelf in my closet on the top where I put my old sets after I get new ones, or where I put sets when I rearange my collection. I am getting ready to make my room Clone Wars sets only, so I'll put all my OT sets in my closet for now. Which will also give me a chance to dust them all off.

2008 Picture thread
Alright, now I knowI haven't been a member here long, but have lurked and know my way through forums, and now this has just got me riled up. Come on, your just lying so you can "disprove the other guy", you were just trying to ly, and since you were caught, decided to play along with it. Now maybe its just me, but I hate being lied to, and when people go around spreding false rumors, its gets other mad. So for the future, please don't act like a child trying to "trick" everyone, then give some stupid exuse Sorry for ranting there, but I just don't like rumor spreaders/liers. But anyway, back on topic, and as said before, does anyone know which ship the Home One set would come with, I mean the large ship, as I am not sure. Thanks.

I hope that is true, to an extent. But I want it to be more than 100, or its not gonna be good. I really did want a Palpy Arrest set, but I also did want Ackbar, and as long as they don't stick Han, Leia etc in there, then I'll be happy. This is a very special set after all, and if they screw it up, lots of people will be mad. But if someone could, could someone post a pick of the ship that would come in the Home One set, as I don't know what it would be. Thanks.

I agree with you Guhin, if LEGO was going to make an AT-TE gunner, why not just put it in with the AT-TE. I would much rather have had the gunner than Rotta. I swear, LEGO doesn't think things through very often, do they?

2008 Picture thread
Wow, I think your right, I never thought of that. Well that awsome then, I'll finally have an accurate gunner for all my ships (since I'll use it as a gunner for more than just the AT-TE). And also, if you need more pilots, you could take the helmet and put it on an episode three clone pilot torso, it could pass as one. LEGO has really thought this through, haven't they
- Which set should I buy?

Yes, the Assasin pack is 2 black droids, 3 sliver. And did anyone notice that Yoda doesn't have an "anime" style face. So I assume Yoda and Mace will be getting anime faces, I can't wait to see Yoda's. And is it just me, or does the Republic Transport remind you of popsicles with all those colors
