Simon_S Posted June 27, 2014 Author Posted June 27, 2014 Great idea and execution Simon! I wouldn't want to be the team that plays against Nocty. Football is still life in the US... it just has a different definition Thanks Torgar! Genius idea Simon, love it! The crowd look like they are really getting into it. C'mon Kali! (Australia are out of the real game already, no great surprise there but i'm still sad.) ps. Where's the umpire? Going to be an interesting match without one! Thanks Gabe , at least Switzerland made it to the last sixteen . SImon, way to pull out a major current event and tie it into GoH so quickly with a great build as well Thanks mate. As you may have noted, the build isn't the same qualitiy as usual and the photos aren't that crispy (I didn't have my good camera available), but I just wanted to post it as fast as possible. Very nicely done sir. The walls and goals look fantastic. For me the highlight is the crowd, they are hilarious. The Kali team of Vinnie Jones, Dragonball Z and Vincent Crabb look ready to take down the tight-wearers. The very overthrown pitch seems favourable to our guys too. Thanks robuko! Building and placing the crowd took probably more time than doing the rest of the build, so I'm glad you like it. Awesome work Simon, very nicely done and topical! You did an amazing job recreating the Avalonian/Kaliphlin crowds and there's so much spirit in this build. Some great ideas too, like those nice goal posts. I'm ready to see Nocturnus play! And don't let the other Yanks convince you otherwise, some of us are football addicts in the U.S. too. Even here in the South - where one's passion goes from God to American football to family, in that order - soccer is becoming the next big thing. The high school team in our town just won its fifth state championship, and the team's only been in existence six years. You can bet you'll see some of our local guys in a future World Cup! Thanks for the kind comment ME. So I look forward to see you in the next World Cup . GER - US one - nill. I guess we can all live with that (except for the Portugeses I'd say) ! See you in the finals amigos!! Yeah, somehow sad that the Portugeses didn't make it. Go Switzerland! Hahahahahahaha So nice to be in this MOC, and the description of my character is absolutely hilarious Too bad the keeper of Avalonia is wearing an helmet Btw, congratz to USA for going to the next round. Be prepared for the Red Devils (Go Belgium!!) Thanks mate! Mikey B has to wear a helmet, while Gideon plays in an armor . Brilliant build! And because this is such a brilliant build, I will forgive you following the tradition that Rogue Angel (I think) started of using female torsos for certain male characters... But if Kaliphlin loses, Masa can always blame it on his uniform.... Thanks, but I think that I started this tradition. Back when I used yellow minifigs, I had a female torso under the hula skirt, the sword holder and the knife. You actually couldn't see well that it was a woman torso. Rogue Angel rebuilt my fig, but on his version the torso was more visible and everybody could identify it as a woman. Now, this is what we call "Gender studies" today . Quote
soccerkid6 Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Really cool idea, and the build itself is excellent Those goals are lovely and it is easy to see that you put a lot of thought into all the figs in the crowd. As far as the whole football (soccer) in the US topic, it is definitely getting more and more popular In my area it's the biggest sport Quote
