Jipay Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 So, after 35 pages about news, I decided to make a quick split of the topic Here are the new city sets for 2005. Those pics are sopposed to be the definitive versions But you never know with lego lately :| (special warning from jindroush to us here) The stickers will be different from country to country Recap : Ferrari but system scaled
jindroush Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Being this 150 years back I'd have to ask to choose your weapons. I ask for satisfaction, sir. You're calling me a liar. But, you're misinformed, at least. This is a photo of a real 7240 box: This is a photo I posted: This is a photo for the german dealer catalogue leak, which you still insist to be REAL set: You may also cross-check with the large picture containing all sets above. IT IS CLEAR EVEN FOR BLIND!!! that the thing from the german dealer catalogue IS A PROTOTYPE. Because of the time span, it's impossible for the dealer catalogue to have the latest info. The same could be cross-checked for 7238 (see the stickers on the back), and 7245 - different light on the roof. The other sets, 7242, 7248 and 7249 can't be cross-checked agains other source yet, but it's clear that they contain the stickers and have the finished look. I'd like to ask you to reword your messages, here, on the title page and on the FBTB forum. One of us will look like a fool in the March, and I don't think it would be me.
Vader Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Theres not alot of difference between the to sets, to me they both look good so im happy :)
Jipay Posted December 3, 2004 Author Posted December 3, 2004 I'd like to ask you to reword your messages, here, on the title page and on the FBTB forum. One of us will look like a fool in the March, and I don't think it would be me. Well yesterday we have been told that the pics on the czeck website (yours ?) were the prototype pics, so I wont change the message until they gave us another info (ok, ok, I already changed it a bit :-D ) I definitly hope lego is not tricking us :| And I think you are making a heavy big deal about 3 bricks put together in a different way...
jindroush Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 I'm giving up. Why do you need some 'confirmation' when you clearly see the german dealer catalogue is not picturing the real sets at least in three cases? There is a proof in my previous message. What else are you waiting for? Who are 'they'?
Jipay Posted December 3, 2004 Author Posted December 3, 2004 Well give up. may I note that your fire station is not builded the right way ? It's clear from your shot that the fence is not right placed. As well as the two antenas. The stuff for the axe and so on... ;) Please don't make such a deal about all this... I agree that the deal about the mobile crane is bigger as well as for the digger since both sets are definitly really different. "They" are some people we are trying to have good relationships with :) So far it has always been good.
Jipay Posted December 3, 2004 Author Posted December 3, 2004 They would never do that ;) Never :-D Oh time for you to get your Real Name
Vader Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Ive been called alot of things in my time but never reasonable :-D
Jipay Posted December 3, 2004 Author Posted December 3, 2004 Ive been called alot of things in my time but never reasonable :-D lolol, there's always a time to start ! Oh and congrats for your place at the fbtb minifig contest !
DoubleT Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Prototypes, not prototypes, they all look great :)
Vader Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 What!!!! :oD (runs off to check fbtb) Wow i came second, thanks for the heads jipay now i wonder what ive won :-D
Vader Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Hey thats one prize i think alot of fbtb posters would love :-D :-D
DoubleT Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 He he, o0(thinking evil plans)0o :D Did you get jipay message vader?
Vader Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Whoops I have only just read the message and my response has been sent :-D
jindroush Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Sam, jipay, could I ask you to change the links from http://www.kostky.org/forum/index.php?topic=206.0 to http://eurobricks.hosting.ipsyn.com/forum/...t=495#entry8450 The forum is kind of slow today, it'll ease the server's life.
David85 Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Yeah you are still showing the prototype sets, they are, and not the more likely true sets.
David85 Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 We had the confirmation that YOUR pictures (that is to say the first pics posted on eurobricks) ARE THE REAL SETS. And who confirmed this? Because whoever did nothing have a damn clue what they are talking about. Being that I OWN (Do any of you?) the Fire Station, I can tell you that the pictures I posted do now match, and being that I OWN the set I'm pretty sure that is the final one. :|
David85 Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Fine for sure are prototyeps, the ones Sam posted are probably also prototypes, but much closer to the final thing. It's not like Lego just makes one set, theyimprove it more and more to get the final, and Sams look much more final, and are probably semifinal to what we get. Saying this is wrong.... "Those pics are sopposed to be the definitive versions" That's a mistake, simple as that because, the Fire Station is not the one, and the Police Car has white, not grey above the wheel. And I would like to thank jindroush for standing up and saying the truth. THESE are even more prototype than Sam's. Post Sam's pictures, they will at least be closer to the real thing. The only pictures that are final are the scan with all the Police and Fire sets, the Fire Truck box, and what jindroush posted as the Fire Station. If you can't get that right, I'm not going to believe this "confirmation" of yours.
Vader Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Hhhmmmmm puzzles me this does (done in yoda voice) Has lego ever relesed a set and then changed a few bits when they send out to europe???
David85 Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 They might as a kind of cenor, but normally they just give you sets we don't get... damn house.... The Fire Station they wouldn't change that much through unless they are making a $50 one, because the prototype looks like Lego was trying to make a more expensive set, then changed their minds. That's just what I get from it through.
Vader Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Still theirs allways a first time for everything. I can see it now on your tombstone it will say 'damn that lego house' ;)
David85 Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 Still theirs allways a first time for everything.I can see it now on your tombstone it will say 'damn that lego house' ;) They don't release it over here I'm going to ask some relitives in Germany to send one, (or 5) over here.
