"This is more like it! Now we need to focus on the minions. Then back to the mob. Rinse and repeat. I don't think that allowing a Mini Mob to form is wise."

"We need to do better than this, or we will be overwhelmed by the enemy numbers. Blow those bombs, Punii!"

Absolutely. I do hope that the defrauded buyers will be able to obtain some form of reimbursement from eBay.

Fair enough, you won't be beaten... this time.

Note: eBay scam discussion split to this topic so that the original discussion can carry on.

Welcome to Eurobricks and Train Tech, Michael. You did the right thing by raising this issue, and there's nothing inappropriate about it. Our members should be informed when unscrupulous individuals attempt to profit from other AFOL's work. Complaints should of course be channelled to eBay customer service, as there's little that Eurobricks can do except raise awareness about this fraud. I don't believe that we have a specific thread for reporting such problems, and as this is particularly relevant to Train fans I suggest that we discuss this in this forum for the time being.

I feel that this discussion is better suited for Community!

I don't have an answer, but I'm merging this with a similar thread as you may find some leads there.

"That's a serious mob. But there's a chance we can mow them down before they do too much damage."

I like it! Great palette of colours, the house looks like a pretty complex build with all those angles and textures, and the tree technique (as seen on Flickr) is awesome! Inspiring stuff

Right on!

You're welcome, I did all the work! Thanks Boney!

Your About Me info might be retrievable from a user database backup, I would wait for one of the Admins to chime in.

It should still work, I just tested it. I did have to reload the page before the 'View Auto Saved Content' line appeared. Of course the Auto Save only kicks in after a minute or so of typing, so if you lose your post too early there won't be a backup.

Though Galen had expected a large gathering attending the coronation, the Progg presence in the large hall was simply overwhelming. As before every battle, he weighed his options for fleeing the fight. A quick dash for the doors, and he could make it to Eubric with a heavy purse and a guilty conscience. But then what? What he had just witnessed was serious -- Eidolon meant business, and Eubric was too close to Luosh for comfort. Fleeing was only postponing the inevitable conflict. Maybe he could flee Uland altogether, but Galen doubted that Heroica would welcome him back after such an act of cowardice. And Galen still had in mind Eidolon's advice regarding his sister. He had to find the Regret and wrench from him any information the creature might have about Brianna. Finding out whether she was dead and his quest pointless, or whether there was hope yet, was worth fighting every Progg in Luosh -- even the new Emperor.

Merged with a similar topic from a few months ago.

Many were wondering about the price point of this set. As mentioned in the Licensed forum, it's $100 (and 100 Euro): http://cdn.toyark.co..._1360501058.jpg Other pictures on toyark.com.
