Fugazi

I fully concur, I would welcome such a subforum. Much of this is presently posted in General Discussion.

This appeared on the Lego City website in the Harbour tab, no price yet?

I would like to examine the rocks blocking the tunnel to the north. Does it look like a natural collapse or were the rocks pushed there somehow? What other items can be seen among the rocks?

Is there any light in the tunnel? Can we see roughly which direction the tunnel leads in? Would it be a good idea to lock the store door behind us so no one can follow? At the very least, it wouldn't look too much like we came in. Of course they will see the boxes have moved though...

Hmm yeah sorry, I was busy with the animals... You know, a farm is a busy place, always something to do. Now with all that's been happening and the investigating I hardly had any time to feed my piggies. So, what have you found so far? Anything interesting in that old store? I can't even remember the last time there was someone here. Do we know who the owner of the abandoned store is/was? Anyway, maybe you can come in for a bite and have a look around the house? I'm sure there ain't any tunnels in there, but I have some nice ham and fresh lettuce, maybe I could tempt you to a sandwich?

There you go. Don't you all see what's happening here? A small group of people have decided in secret to eliminate two townies on the basis of... nothing. No evidence, no debate, they fancy themselves judge and jury. I'm sure there are some of you that perhaps followed them blindly, I urge you to reconsider. What proof have those people given you? I have here evidence of a scum trying to convert me last night. What do they have? I am voting with a clear conscience because I won't have my fellow townies' blood on my hands. Can you tell me you're as sure of your choices as I am? Why are you following these liars like sheep? Mark my words, this is probably the last day of this town, not a single townie will ever wake up again.

Mr Gershwin, you are repeating yourself... Perhaps my accusations are making you loose your cool? (lose ) Maybe that's what you mean by the power of three?

You won't make me change my mind. I am still convinced you are scum, and it will be clearly shown tomorrow when the Senator searches your cold body. Voting for Walter doesn't make it any better, as I have full confidence in him and he's among the few trustworthy people in this town. He's Night Watch, he's given us real and truthful information leading to the conviction of a Godfather, he's NEVER tried to lead us into voting out a townie. Your choice is obviously misguided and to me it's just another proof that you are a Noodle. I maintain my vote.

Mr Gershwin, I would expect you to make up stories to cast doubt on me. I'm pretty sure that you and the other scum are just trying to deflect suspicion from yourselves by making us townies attack each other. Which was quite successful this far. Nonetheless, I will pledge my life on what I saw and I will be killed tomorrow if I'm wrong. But I can't be wrong. The blood bath must end here.

Most of the Night Watch are already dead. Carrie Price was our leader, before she was converted. Shaun Dows, Ben Becker and Walter Kovacs are the others. Walter can confirm that I am indeed who I claim to be.

Ron Canter? Walter? I think there are people much more suspicious in this town. Starting with Mr Benjamin Gershwin here, not a loud person but always present when it's time for voting. Mr Gershwin isn't very well informed though. He doesn't know that I'm part of the Night Watch, and that I can detect anyone who attemps a night action on me. He also doesn't know that I've inherited a very precious object from Chief's Nader upon his death. That object allowed me to resist the conversion attempt that Mr Gershwin tried on me last night! Did you see a conversion today in the newspapers? I bet you didn't. Yes, Mr Gershwin is a Noodle. Possibly a Godfather. So in my mind there is no doubt as to who should be voted out today. Vote Benjamin Gershwin/Bendybadger

5 deaths in one night is unbelievable and unprecedented. We've been misled again and again, maybe today we can put an end to this carnage. I think we're starting to have an idea of who the scum are, so let's make the most of the votes today before it's too late.

Yes Mayor. Not much to say, really. The front door of the store was jammed, and the key to the back door was hidden outside the building, so I assume that whoever was in there came out the back and hid the key. We courageously broke into the store, there was no one to be found. However, we did find a US Marines wet suit in a changing room. This must have been the wet suit your CIA agent came in with, it was still wet. On the second floor we found the same letter that you saw here in the safe. The one about X-K2P. And on the third floor, we found a Soviet Army pistol hidden under a rug. Now why a commie would have hidden a pistol in the toys department? Anyway, this is all we found. Now there's a funny thing you mentioned... that Town Hall blueprint, it had a tunnel leading north towards Dieter's, the hotel and my farm... And Dieter's blueprints and those of the hotel didn't show any tunnels. So what's left? My farm. Now, I never found a tunnel in my house but I was thinking of the abandoned shop behind it that I use for storage. Maybe we should have a look there after we're done here.

It sounds even more ominous when read twice in a row! The CIA! We're going to be turned into mince meat by tomorrow if we don't find the communists among us! Well maybe not by tomorrow but within the next few days! The National Guard! A cargo ship! We're stewed! I think there's no time to waste. First, let's try to stop that agent from destroying out communication lines, maybe we still can talk them out of this doomsday plan. Officer Fields, would you like to threateningly lead us to the next floor?

I would love for that to happen! If any of you are interested or have model suggestions please feel free to share them in one of the two threads mentioned above. There are already a few great Technic models created by EB members up on Cuusoo waiting for more supporters. The only aspect that is not obvious to me is the cost of the final product -- I suppose it may be aligned with DesignByMe model pricing, but it's just conjecture. I look forward to the unveiling of the marketing details for the first set, Shinkai 6500.

Have a read of those two topics, they discuss the Cuusoo concept: here and here! Basically it's a concept initiated in Japan, but I see no reason why this couldn't be mail ordered from other countries.

I would like to read the document I just found, out of earshot of Chef Schneider. No really, I would like to read the document and share it with the others.

I see Mrs Jefferson has resumed her Christmas shopping! As on the previous floor, I would like to walk around the floor, checking for hiding places, footsteps, fallen documents.

None if NINJAGO has anything to say about it! (considering this post!)

Peculiar isn't it! Maybe they didn't want to get anyone's hopes up! (Nobody really expects a return of M-Tron and the others mentioned )

Very interesting! Was there any information about the marketing and availability of this set? The Lego Cuusoo website doesn't mention any set currently in production, so I suppose it's not yet publicly available.

So let's see... We have a secret operative crashlanding near the lighthouse in a boat... He lost most of his stuff in the water but may still have a weapon. He kidnapped both the Congressman and the Mayor and brought them here. Too bad that neither of them is here, we might have asked them for details of their imprisonment. Then he went to the Town Hall to look for records and in the mean time his prisoners escaped. When we got to the Town Hall, he ran back here with a box of records. Now Is there a basement to this store? If not, we should head upstairs. I would like to check the floor of the store for hatches leading to the basement. If there are none, I would like to walk to the bottom of the stairs and wait for Officer Fields to lead the way.

Wait a minute, our diver is probably still somewhere in this store and likely not one of us. I would like to check for water marks leasing away from the suit -- in the changing room but also near the store entrance and the bottom of the stairs leading to the upper floor. (leading away )

Interesting, it looks like the minifig-USB can still be clicked on a baseplate. Very handy, less chances of misplacing it that way! Can the arms and head move at all?

Well Officer Fields, perhaps you should take the lead here, you're the one with the weapon and our fugitive is armed. You could check the changing room while we cover the rest of this floor, and we all meet at the stairs? I would like to start walking slowly towards the front of the store, checking on my way for any possible hiding places, footprints or lost documents on the floor.
