LEGO |OT 3| Build Hard. Buy Fast. No Mercy.
- Thread starter PhoncipleBone
- Start date
My Town Hall shipped today ahead of schedule! I could have it on the 17th. So that leaves:
Palace Cinema (taking my time on this one)
Grand Emporium (Will be looking on fair deals on it)
Fire Brigade (if I get lucky...)
And I'll be ordering Detective Agency immediately when available.
I never thought i'd see such a creative execution of such an uncreative joke. But they pulled it off.

Yes although there are two mammoth minifigs in Maula's Ice Mammoth if you're interested in the mammoth tribe.

Should we slow down on posts so it doesn't roll over before Phon is ready?
I'm scared guys!
Nothing will happen when we reach the limit, don't panic.

I'm going to put a Lego order in tomorrow. I was hell bent on getting another modular. I had settled on the Town Hall. Now I'm torn whether to spend $300 on one set or get the Town Square and a Star Wars set like Jabba's Sail Barge instead.
This is a perfect time to panic.
This will be my first thread retirement...do I unsubsribe? Or do I keep the sub for memories of a different type. So many questions...
You sure? I coulda sworn I've seen it happen before. Well doesn't matter to me either way. What does happen then?
What I could swear I've seen before is post 20,001 becoming op 1 in a new thread because 20,000 is a hard limit.

Some fast moving threads will go a few pages over the soft limit before a mod steps in to close them.
I would like to finish it by March, end of April at the latest so that I can take it to the Chicago convention. If it doesn't make it to Chicago in 2015, it will by 2016. The big thing for me is to make sure it's perfect and that I don't simplify anything in order to finish in time.

Mine arrives on Thursday. I didn't want to risk missing out on it. Will pick up the Workshop & SW Advent calendar next week if all goes well, then I'll be up to date on the Winter sets.
With all of the shipment delays & "sold out" statuses on the S@H site I'm starting to work through my backlog of wanted sets from an oldest first order. I'm glad I picked up the Camper for that reason alone; have a feeling a lot of 2013 and earlier sets will be gone in a few months.

Very cool either way.
How many parts so far? and what is your estimate for the final product?

So OT 4 going up today

I'm scared guys!
Relax, guys. EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!

I honestly do not have a good estimate yet, I plan to do some counts of certain areas soon. The first two levels I would say total 15 to 20k bricks.

I still think I should be getting commissions from lego for making the first lego thread
You got our support for CUUSOO

Even to the very end of the thread, your collection of Palpatine images remains wholly relevant.
Not tryin' to steal your thunder ghostmind, but I had a flash thought that this thread needs some prequel trilogy representation too...

I watched Attack of the Clones on Saturday with my 8 year old. I hadn't seen it since the original theatrical release twelve years ago. It....did not hold up well.
There was a point where it held up?

Sound design is still tip top.
That's like those oscars they give away the day before the show to those movies they don't want to feel bad.
That IS pretty crucial for SW.

Oh gosh no. There's a reason I hadn't watched it since....but I was surprised when I was reminded how bad it really was.
My daughter summed it up very well:
"Wait...R2D2 can fly?"

B-b-but
THE REPUBLIC GUNSHIP!
THE MUSIC!
THE VISUALS!
OBI-WAN vs JANGO FETT!
BATTLE ON GEONOSIS!
YODA vs DOOKU!
POLITICAL MACHINATIONS!
ACROSS THE STARS!
But really, I do get that many don't like the film, but I guess I can tolorate the parts that make people cringe better than most; plus, I just love being in the Star Wars Universe so much that I can take the "bad" with the good.
Edit 2:
*Sound that Republic Gunship makes when revving up and speeding away* <3 :also the sound that the seismic charges make that Jango shoots at Obi-Wan= <3

Hey hey hey...I liked Episode 1, even though it is pretty flawed.

Fare thee well, old thread.
I liked Episode 1...when I was kid. Jk. Episode I does get some unjust hate. I loved the old Episode I LEGO sets though, with the yellow faces.

Prequel movies in order, best to worst.
Revenge of the Sith > Phantom Menace > Attack of the Clone.
Edit: Goodbye old thread.

I know nothing about Wonder Woman. Please tell me the weapons are the real names in the comics.
Doesn't even look like a new minifig. What a shame.I know nothing about Wonder Woman. Please tell me the weapons are the real names in the comics.

You know it's fake because there is no Batman minifig included. It's required in every DC set afterall.
Nah, he's there... He's in the trunk...

As long as we're going in that direction, we should probably just include the one standard Spidey fig that is in every set over the last few years.

I wonder how many spare pieces it comes with.

My pet peeve is the invisible color is a bit off on some of the bricks. I'm always annoyed when I see the brick colors and non-colors being so off.

Thighs of Liberty are missing, but they all seem legit.
It annoys me that they didn't included her lasso.

We will get this thread to 20k and get it locked, come hell or high water.

Ahahaha my girlfriend wanted to buy green grocer and smacked face-first into a solid wall of sticker shock. I wonder what she was expecting it to cost? She knows it's out of print and that the modulars blow up.
Looks like we are probably about to get pet shop in the near future. The chronological modular order is currently pet shop, town hall, cinema, Parisian thing?
This feels like cheating for post count though you made the next ot right? Eager to show it of
