Glad to know you support the Jedi of old. But these days Jedi are more of a myth than anything else.

Um, I mentioned his hair in my first paragraph as "wizard hair." His doesn't count as "normal." It's specialized. I don't see average people walking down the sidewalk with that hairstyle.

Gotta say, owning only one of the allowed sets I thought this would be really hard to do with my existing collection. But I just took a couple hours today and parted out as many pieces on the list as I had and I found I have over 75% of the allowed pieces! Now I'm up against the challenge of making those pieces look good...

Has anyone else noticed the Lego does not make white hairpieces for regular minifigures? Sure we've got a dwarf beard, wizard hair, judge's wig, and minute man wig; but there are almost no normal hair styles represented in white from Lego. The last one before this year was in 1982 with the "36 Little People + Accessories": http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=x103&in=S In June we got Count Dooku's hairstyle in white and in August of this year we got Doc Brown with another white hairstyle. The BTTF set being the only one of those with white hairpieces included I feel obligated to share a picture :) So my question is: with 2 new hairstyles in white out this year are we going to finally see a wider variety of white hairpieces from Lego? What do you think?

Definitely a species that only fits in Nocturnus. But is a very nice change of pace from the normal baddies you find in the region.

I love, love, LOVE, the Tolkien reference! I noticed it right away even before you added that note.

Love the use of chrome!

Love the unique way of showing snow on the roof. Good job on both!

The lack of aliens is actually part of my story that I'll include when I'm finished. Thanks for the props on the pipes. I'm really working to get the right greebling for Star Wars.

I'm from Mitgardia and would like to sign up. I know I have to get assigned, but just in case it helps at all I would prefer to be on Lord Ssilyrrlith's side.

Thank you for the feedback! For the stairs, if there were enough room for a minifigure to use the stairs would it be better? I tried to capture the look of the stairs from Quark's in DS9. I'll try to work on the black and am looking into getting plates from Bricklink. I have to say though that I am a big fan of stud floors and will have to keep trying to win over those of you who don't like them. Thank you for your feedback. I've really liked your builds and know I have a lot to learn.

No feedback from anyone? Does that mean this is a perfect build? Anyone?

I had arrived for my regular Friday shift at Hao's. "Hao" is Drallish for something like "Fun Place." Dralls aren't known for coming up with the most creative names. Being in Imperial space, non-human species try to stay in the background as much as possible to avoid punishment. My brother was out with one of his officers letting off steam over the events of the week. The main topic of the night was the Qwohog that got arrested for being too public with his actions. I was also thinking about that topic. I was thinking that it was about time I stopped holding my tongue and actually did something about the Empire's actions. OoC: Please judge as a free build. Edit: Final Picture with tile on the top :)

That is a HUGE help! Thank you for the exception!

I really like how you designed your base.

Love the deviation from the norm here! Hope you'll be able to continue the idea to phase 2 and 3.

More time is fine by me. I'm building free builds right now.

Thank you everyone! It didn't do too well in the contest. But I'm glad to know there is still appreciation for the build. It is actually a species known as the Aoi who are known for making airships in the Heroica world.

I made this for a Heroica contest. The original is here: http://www.eurobrick...topic=85566&hl=. But I wanted to post more pictures so here you go:

I love the background story! I'm going to be using the elemental attacks as a source of woe in my background story as well. Great minds think a like I guess!

I love the Bible history represented here!

I know that you can get rare bulk parts at Legos stores by buying the Pick-A-Brick buckets. I asked a worker at my local store how they decide what parts to offer and she said they change one or two piece selections a week depending on what Lego sends them. Could be that these Bricklink users are getting lucky at their local stores.

Thanks! Those Hobbit Dwarf heads have some great, surprising uses. I'll have to go through at look at just the heads without the beards to get familiar with them.

I love the story you've made for this. The build is nice, but it's the story that really stands out. And just know, there are some of us who still like exposed studs on the ground. Some of us have been around Legos a verrry long time. The whole "cover-every-exposed-stud-with-a-tile" idea is a fairly new one in the history of Lego MOCs.

Wow, great build. I think the hologram works if you think of the background as what they are seeing in the little bulb thing. Maybe that's too abstract... But I thought it worked
