Governor Mister Phes Posted March 26, 2005 Governor Posted March 26, 2005 Wait a minute! There was Viking Lego as early as 1987!!! 6049 Viking Voyager http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6049 Quote
Sarg_Kulo Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 Just came here to wish you all luck with your contest. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted March 26, 2005 Governor Posted March 26, 2005 Love that set. I might even buy one :oD I did and haven't regretted it! The 4+ set however, might be a different story entirely. So best I skip buying that unless they're almost giving them away... Quote
The Middleman Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 I also have Skull Island, it's a great set. The 4+ 'skull' piece is horrible, though. Wouldn't come near it with a ten-foot axel. Quote
Brickmaster Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 hey, the skull could be usful for a gigantic midevil rock mountain thing... it would save alot of parts and stuff, is there any way to make it with regular parts? i might just try Quote

However, you're right. It could look quite good if it was actually part of a decent structure with some design thought. In the case of the 7074 set the skull looks too aloof and there doesn't appear to be any logical or functional reason for having it there - apart from being able to name the set "Skull Island". Quote
Luigi Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 "The wonderfully designed 6279 from 1995?" I definitively like better Imperials (even if I won't be upset to have this set) About the contest, if it's before summer holidays then I propose to be part as a judge but after or while holidays I'll try to make a Moc :D Quote

It is very very very wonderful in juxtaposition to its 2004 counter part. Imperial Guards were great and I too prefer them over 6279. Hower 6279 is quite a fine set in its own right. Quote
Cyclonis Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 is there any way to make it with regular parts? i might just try Yes, there is a way, but Lego is too damn useless to even bothor to supply us with those grey bricks. I could make that crappy 4+ set with a couple of plain bricks...cause, that's all it is! Quote

I could make that crappy 4+ set with a couple of plain bricks...cause, that's all it is! There isn't much design inguineity to most of those 4+ Pirate sets. Just a tacky structure here and a tacky structure there. 7075 Red Beard's Ship might be alrite, but I haven't see it beyond pictures yet. I definitely don't like the cannons on it though... Quote
Cyclonis Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Yep. I'll enter. I've got a MOC waiting to be displayed... Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Here is an idea of contest: Best Pirate 4+ modification ;) It would be the best Pirate MOC BUT having to include a minimum of crappy 4+ pieces and elements. Why not??? Who wants to pick this task???? Quote
Cyclonis Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 nah, we'll all suck at it :P and plus, i dont wanna by a 4+ set that i will actually pay money for. Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Agreed, but it was to show that with a 4+ set we, the AFOLs could do something great, especially with the small ship ;) Quote
The Middleman Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 See, that would get no entries, because nobody bought them or WANTS to buy them. ;) Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Come on guys, where is your sense of challenge ;) Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted April 2, 2005 Governor Posted April 2, 2005 *wacko* Its over HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERE!!! Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 OK, I get the point, it was just an idea after all :| ;) Quote
