This one is based on Vader's confrontation of the fledgling Rebel Alliance in the season 2 opener of SW: Rebels.
>>5396803
4/4
And here's some another Revenge of the Sith set I guess.
>>5396807
That Superman is also in the Lex Luthor mech set.
Thanks, OP. Now we have three Lego Generals, not counting the one waiting to fall off. Check the catalog next time.
RIP DAVID BOWIE.
FUCK THIS GAY EARTH.
>>5396823
There are available pieces to replicate the look, though. So while we wait for the green version of that roof, we should still be fine.
>>5396849
Could you alternatively use two green wedge roof pieces like this one with a 4x4 plate under them for support?

>>5396803
They finally managed to get those little winglets slanted on the A-wing?
Bricklink is sucking my fucking soul dry I swear to god.
I keep forgetting parts in orders and every time I have to order the parts I forgot I add on some more. Fuuuuuuck.
>>5396885
Looks like a new piece
>>5396797
when are these sets going to be revealed officially?
>>5396898
I don't know about super-clean product images, but they should all be present (and publicly viewable) at the New York Toy Fair next month.
In the mean time, wait for more leaked photos when the Nuremburg Toy Fair hits later this month.
>>5396909
More importantly, when are they going to be released?
>>5396912
For sure they'll be out in the second half of the year, ie. around June-August.
We won't have any more concrete dates until the aforementioned Toy Fairs.
>>5396808

Why live
Reposting my new display case in the new thread, got it today for really cheap and I like the way it turned out.
>>5396926
I wish I still had my original boba, got him in the old 2003 set of pic related.
>>5396933
>tfw all I have left of him are the legs and the helmet-backpack
At least I'll get a new one with my Slave one from 2006 or 2007.
Man I'm bad at waiting for Bricklink orders.
>>5396926
Huh. I've never actually seen a collection of Iron Man minifigs that didn't have knockoffs before.
You getting the suits in the new wave, anon?
>>5396926
That would look awesome in one of the ikea light boxes
>>5396933
Yeah, I got this guy in Cloud City like a billion years ago, and I also have the old, unprinted one, but he's not really worthy of a case when I've got his printed cousin.
>>5396942
Yeah, and I'm gonna try to figure out the best way to get the Silver Centurion one from Gamestop as well.
I kind of want to wait for prices to die down a bit, though, BrickLink is going nuts with the new figs. I hate the sets they're in but absolutely want the variants that aren't another red-and-gold suit.
>>5396946
Once I get out of grad school and have a room bigger than a closet I'm probably going to go for a Detolf cabinet and some other Ikea stuff, yeah.
>>5396959
>I hate the sets they're in but absolutely want the variants that aren't another red-and-gold suit.
Why not buy the sets and make the money back by selling the non-Tony figs?
You can always just add the sets' pieces to your inventory.
>>5396962
I've considered it, but I'm not sure how much I could make back by selling the other figs, especially since I also want Captain Marvel.
That being said, it probably would end up costing the same amount as getting the figs themselves, and I would get more parts. I'll have to look into it.
That and there's a TFA Falcon for $100 NIB on Craigslist locally that I can't decide if I want to take a pass at.
>>5396803
Damn this set has that nostalgic feel for me.
Might get it when it goes out.
How much would the 3PO polybag be worth there is one for five dollars 2 hours away from me and I am considering asking about postage.
>>5396967
If you end up deciding to get the Falcon too, I suggest taking that offer up before grabbing the Marvel sets. Those will be on shelves for some time, while the Falcon's gonna be eaten up pretty soon with the lingering TFA hype.
>>5396990
The only reason I hesitate is because back home I have the Falcon from 2004, and I don't know if having two of the same model (albeit a way newer, way better one) would serve much purpose
I need Han and Rey figs, but already have Finn and two BB-8's (gotta sell one of those, they go for like $15 on BL)
>>5396990
I'm fucking considering getting another one because I dropped my first one and by now all the loose bricks have scattered to the four corners of the universe, and one of the corner plates was bent.
>>5396982
I've already decided I'm going to buy both the TIE Advanced and the new Turbo Tank even if I have to sell a kidney to afford it.
And the new X-wing in non-retarded colours.
>>5396993
If you only have the 04 falcon the new one is well worth it as it comes with the new chewbaca and old Han and it is very unlikely that they will release another set with old Han
>>5396995
See if you can buy a 7965 secondhand instead. You end up with a lot of similar pieces to work with, and you also get the ANH crew.
Plus they have to be selling for cheaper than a MIB Force Awakens Falcon, right?
>>5397003
Looks about as expensive on Bricklink, but I still might.
What's up my fellow autists. I got a question for you I got bored and made the endurance from interstellar and I kind of want to make it IRL but the outside rectangles are hollow and I am wondering if it would be better to fill them in. Pic related the build itself in that LDD rendering program.
>>5396990
>tfw the crew quarters in the set does not have a mini galley that was a wedding gift for leia.
Why live
>>5396801
Someone said in the last thread that it's from Aftermath.
I haven't read it, I hear it's shit, but I remember reading somewhere that there was a kid who rebuilt a battle droid in it. There appears to be a kid and a battle droid.
Has anybody read the book? Can you confirm wheather or not there's a kid and a battle droid and a ship called "Hammerhead"?
>>5397030
I have not read it, but I know that there is a Battle Droid with Grievous "mind" in aftermath
>>5397031
Okay seeing that has made me decide not to read aftermath.
>>5397021
Just think about the structural integrity and whether or not they need to be filled in.
>>5396803
>fledgling rebels
>A-wing
>>5397039
What's the problem? The A-Wing belonged to Bail Organa's group of rebels, not to the main six cast members.
>>5397045
>What's the problem? The A-Wing belonged to Bail Organa's group of rebels, not to the main six cast members.
All good nerds know the A-Wing wasn't introduced until after the Battle of Yavin
>>5397048 Sorry to brake it to you buddy but rebels went and did a little retcon on that fact.
>>5397048
Those look like the proto A-wings that appeared in some comic way back when.
>>5397037
Well here it is next to a minifig so I think I will just fill them up in case then again that could make everything a bit heavier.
>>5397053
How the heck can those hinges support that much lego anyway?
>>5397054
It's not just 4 hinges on the edges it is 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom and on the top plus I Plan to make a display stand that could most likely support it.
Avast, legogen!
>>5396923
sold the scrub for like 20 eurobucks, never knew he was worth that much
>>5397055
nigga you gonna bricklink that?
>>5397059
Two Raid Zeppelins?
>>5397066
Considering it mainly because it would not be that exspensive considering it only consists of White, Gray and black.
>>5397021
If you built it at minifig scale, why is there so little detailing on the individual pods, and whether hollow or not, I think you need a much sturdier connection at those joints.
>>5397030
When searching for Hammerhead I only saw Old Republic starships mentioned which look nothing like the set, it´s probably like some anon told last thread a Yoda Chronicles type model with no basis in anything.
>>5397032
There is so much worse stuff in that book and I only know it through /tv/ memesters. Star Wars is officially a YA franchise for teenaged girls now like Hunger Games and Maze Runner.
>>5397059
Are the pirate Ninjago sets out already?
>>5396785
This looks really comfy.
>>5397081
I went off of memory really and seeing a picture of the actual thing I may improve the design but the pods them self look very minimalist but a different shape then mine.
>>5397083
>Are the pirate Ninjago sets out already?
Yurop
>tfw always regret not buying the 2015 pirates
>still every time I see a Pirate set in a toy store I go "but I could get some more star wars sets..."
>>5397086
>But we don't get nexo knights for another monthish.
That's a painful tradeoff, as nice as the Ninjago Pirates stuff is. Hopefully the NEXO Knights stuff isn't overhyped for you guys.
>all the force awakens figures are selling for nearly 15 dollars some even 25
Fucking aye might resort to the chinks at this rate.
>>5397093
Which ones are the most expensive? My jew sense is tingling.
>>5397099
The new kylo ren and BB-8
>>5397093
The fuck are you even talking about? Is that ebay and amazon prices? I just looked at bricklink and Phasma and both Kylo Rens are ~$20, Han Solo and Maz Kanata are ~$12, and everyone else is below $10.
>>5397088
Star Wars will always be around and get remakes of most sets. Most of my Lego purchases revolve around what's going to be available vs what won't later.
>>5397104
I am talking dollary doos m8.
>>5397107
$25 in AUS is $17 US, so that's actually even less.
>>5397032
>"The TIE wibbles and wobbles through the air, careening drunkenly across the Myrran rooftops - it zigzags herkily-jerkily out of sight."
That's an actual line in the book...
>>5397105
My purchases revolve around what I'd like to see on my shelf of interesting items 20 years from now vs. what I'd rather just deconstruct and put to my pieces bin. That said, buying the Z-95 Headhunter is probably one of my biggest Lego regrets, especially since I lost the four-armed guy. That and the Quinjet city chase. And the Droid gunship. Most of my CIS stuff actually, except the Vulture Droid.
Honestly I just think the sets they made revolving around pirates when I was still a sperm or from around when I was born and raised were so much better than this current lot.
>>5397110
Oh THAT book.
>>5397110
That's a real fucking shame because I have read all the other new "cannon" books and comics and those have been good I especially like the grand moff tarkin one.
>>5397112
Post said shelf.
And I don't think old pirates are that expensive on BL
>>5397121
Maybe when I get home, but my room is such a mess it would take me a decade to make it presentable.

>tfw a new shaak ti never and it makes more sense to buy the whole set than to just buy her alone
>>5396797
this looks like the ship that rey is looking at leaving her on Jakku
>>5396984
Just me being me, but I consider most figures to have a base price of $5.
$5 is good. I've seen some go for $10.
Can't you drive over there?
Also I saw an AT-AT at TRU. Really considering it. And this Polybag is cooomfeeee.
>>5397077
You gonna post the feel so we can all trickling that? I need it. It'll look great next to this one
Yesterday was a good day. Took a gamble but both were nib despite broken seals

>Star Wars is officially a YA franchise for teenaged girls now like Hunger Games and Maze Runner.
As opposed to the prior decades when it was a YA franchise for teenaged boys...
>>5397112

>>5397039
>muh continuity
Found some blue exo force arms for my robo horse, hope they don't snap. I think I've done all I can do with this thing, time to get some more sets. Lavaria, here I come!
>>5397210
YA is about making a world for characters, Star Wars and other sci-fi was about characters making a world. And they didn´t use "wibbely wobbely herkily jerkily" for prose.
>>5397048
The Droids cartoon still had A-Wings and B-Wings before ANH, it´s not like they cared before.
At least the B-Wing is a special prototype with a dedicated episode in Rebels.
>>5397214
>70 dollars
The fuck shitty car do you have?
What do you guys think about those Creator building sets? Not the modular ones, but the small ones. I saw the corner building and the lakeside lodge and now I'm considering buying a few.
>>5397245
The little corner sandwich shop looks really cool.
>new x-wing set w/ first order trooper and cool jacket Poe
Fug, I have the black and orange one on back order and it's due Feb. When will this come out? Summer-ish?
They're gonna hike it up another 10 bucks though due to the extra minifigs though ain't they?
>>5397234
Opel Kadett
I searched through my room for something and ended up finding this pile of everything. Not pictured: a Snowtrooper with the WEB gun.

>>5397253
I hope not regarding the price hike. I love the "new" x wing design I just couldn't get into the black & orange
Can anyone read what the mini figs in the new x wing set. Obviously bb-8 and a flame trooper but who else
>>5397306
Wow beautiful.
Honestly I have enough fucking cars, I want more play sets. I agree with the anon in previous threads mentioning this.
That's why I feel like Friends > City sets.
Friends would be 10/10 if it didn't rely on white, pink, dark pink, baby blue as 95% of all their pieces.
>>5397310
Probably Poe and that old guy he is talking to at the beginning of the movie.
>>5397253
Why would they raise the price if it contains the same amount of stuff?
>x-wing
>poe minifig
>two other minifigs
>bb-8
>small companion build
>>5397288
Yeah, but I was talking about the boxed sets they sell.
>>5397253
Yeah, they probably are. It really sucks because it looks like it's a Flametrooper and I don't need another one of those.
I already have Poe's. Hopefully the price of the new one isn't too bad because I need it
>>5397214
Great can't wait. Part of the fun of large mocs are those oh shit moments when it doesn't work irl as it did in LDD. ThiS moments really test your metal.
I get that they know not everyone is going to be all the sets of any given line... But now I have all these.
If you could clone yourself exactly as you are now and you found yourself attractive, would that make you gay or just put you on the cutting edge of masturbation technology?

I seriously hope /mu/ is not behind this too.
so uh, new guy here.
I am very much hankering for trying to build some sort of mecha thing from just ...whatever parts I have, but I am running into issues with getting feet to work. is there any place that has some guides for ...well, basic, functioning mech looking legs you could build easily? ...or hell, even instructions on a good mech to build?
>>5397426
Do you have some spare change? Everyone and their mother recommends getting a few Mixels sets to give you some much-needed ball-joint pieces. They give creature and mech builds a good range of motion.
They also have a bunch of simple techniques in making stable feet.
>>5397426
Do you have ratcheting joints?
>>5397437
>>5397426
Here's a demonstration of their range.
Anyone has some shields to scan other than most popular ones?
>about to drop a little dosh for Star Wars stuff to get Poe's mini X-Wing
>ticks over midnight

Are you shitting meeeeeee
>>5397456
How big are you building, anyway? And what parts are you working with?
>>5397457
Has the Nexo intro pack even been available for Europe or did I completely miss it?
>>5397460
hoping something similar in overall size to captain Metalbeard. and honestly I have a mishmash of several things.some old ,some new. I couldnt tell you what exactly I have if I tried.
>>5397465
Finland here, I haven't seen hair nor hide of them.
>>5396803
There is NO WAY this set is only 442 pieces. Guaranteed buy though.
>>5396926
Where'd you get it, it looks amazing!
>>5397465
I'm in Australia, Nexo hasn't been up on the site all that long and literally nothing, not even the new City stuff has hit physical stores here yet.
I'm dying to order in a few things that probably wont make it to the shelves (the City heavy haul trainset never made it here for some reason), but I'd really like a better freebie than this Olaf thing.
>>5396797

Fucking goat set, my man.
Also is pic related boncle or lego?
Just built it and it was pretty fun. The upper body is looser than I wished but the lower body is solid.
Will Def pick up Kylo and Grevious.
The cape is too small for my taste. Wish it had a full wrap, so maybe I'll get some fabric and make a custom.
It's also freaking huge. About half an inch taller than the box it comes in. Also it has a federation Droid torso piece in its build.
>>5397360
One has two studs on the back, solid colored ones have 4
Does anyone with a black light have the translucent armored Nexo Knights?

I'm talking about a large store that sells everything from electronics to games to toys to clothes to food to snacks etc. under one brand. Isn't that what Walmart and Target are?
>>5397508
Oh I know it's real, I was wondering if /mu/ posting hastened his demise. They may have killed Lemmy too.
Anyway, this is a LEGO thread, so I'll at least add something on topic.
>>5397534
Supermarkets are just Markets that sell everything here. Some Tescos sell funiture and garden shit too
>>5397538
>I'm talking about a large store that sells everything from electronics to games to toys to clothes to food to snacks etc. under one brand. Isn't that what Walmart and Target are?
In the US, those are called "department stores". Large department stores often have their own self-contained supermarkets within the larger store, but "supermarket" just means large grocery store.

I have "Under Woe". It is exclusive from the January Lego club magazine.
>>5397570
How many powers do you think they're never going to come out with physical shields for?
Alright /lg/. It's been some time since the release of your favorite Star Wars set. Lego has decided to release a new one, and they wanna mix it up a little.
In what ways could they improve that set? Which minifigs will they include this time?
>>5397578
Make an accurate canopy piece. All of the cockpit pieces they use aren't right in some way or another but they kind of look like any of them. 1 fancy mold/print for each ship wont hurt too bad especially since they always release the same ships repeatedly.
>>5397578
TIE Crawler doesn't need improving
>>5397577
I'm certain that any non-toy scannable powers will never have physical tile versions, simply because they don't want a child disappointed to find that the brand new set has a shield he's already scanned multiple times over.
Despite this I still hope they print out physical versions of the shields the Nexo Knights are shown always having in promotional material. Their family symbols are neat and those specific shields seem to be the only ones that have them.
>>5397577
I'd think most will have a physical Lego bit to scan. The silly or overpowered ones will possibly get the tv or magazine only. I recall seeing a picture of the classic space logo in the app. That will not be getting a real shield.
>>5397584
>implying they shouldn't make it in gray and black

Is this what drug addicts feel? I think I seriously need help.
>>5397578
Since you brought it up, how about a new Snowspeeder design that isn't 12 years old?
I would like to see a new TIE Bomber or Interceptor. I love what they did with the fighter (9492) and they could do it again.
>>5397583
This. Using one canopy piece for three ships was acceptable in 1999, but Lego's standards have been raised since then. I should think we could absorb the cost of two new parts (assuming the new TFA X-wing canopy will be used for the next X years).
>>5397578
I would like a Y-wing that has both a good looking cockpit and a good looking rear section. I would like a new TIE Bomber. Just completely modernized. I actually have most of my favorite Star Wars sets already and can't think of any way to improve them. The latest Shuttle Tydirium was perfection in lego, I love the AT-AT (though it could use a better interior), The Star Destroyer is great as well. All I could wish for is a new Tantive IV.
>>5397602
Watch out, you're nearing the "I'll suck your dick for a polybag!" point!

I wish I had gotten the most recent Y-Wing. It's like $90 now but looks so good that I'm actually considering it.
>>5397602
Anon, I honestly do think you need help. Nexo Knights only started being sold two weeks ago. It's only been public knowledge for three months.
Don't worry about running out of sets to buy. It's LEGO, stores will restock. It's January, there's still stock to come. You don't need to get them all right away, when you're low on funds.
Save up first. Avoid purchasing anything hobby-related for a month or two. You need some time to consider what you really want, anon.
>>5397613
Don't watch it, then. It's non-canon.
>>5397615
I recently got the Y-wing from 2007 for 50 euros, and I based my decision on the back section. That just looks ugly to me. Using stickers for the engines? What the fuck? Why does the droid sit in a dip on the ship? It just looks way too ugly for me, even though the front looks better than the 2007 version and the figures are better.
>>5397619
>tfw I'm thinking of running to a store with my 70 euros of money and buying the fucking Naboo Starfighter if that's what it takes to get me some more crack
>>5397570
Any idea why this wont scan ?
>>5397632
scanned fine for me.
>>5397634
Is there a update or some shit as another shield had merlock say that he didnt remember it!

Here's a better version, capped straight from lego.com
>>5397615
Has LEGO made any Clone Wars-era Y-Wings?
>>5397612
Well, the only plausible thing I could think of is to actually sell some of my stuff. I mean, I do have some shits that need getting rid of, like comics and other old toys, like the NECA Team Fortress 2 line and some other stuff.
I could get another job on my days off, but my work schedule so erratic that I'll just fuck up the new job's scheduling system.
>>5397619
I'm going to see if I can get out of comics for the time being. Fucking Canadian exchange rates make $3.00 comic books fucking $5 after tax, instead of $3.50.
>>5397644
Thanks dude, Still some shields dont want to scan yet :S
>>5397644
Yeah, one in 2012. Came with Ananas and Ahsoka. It looks pretty cool actually. TOO BAD I DESTROYED MINE
>>5397644
Indeed they have.

>>5397647
Get a job hippie!
>>5397653
Destroyed as in parting it out to your Lego bin?
>>539764
Yep
>>5397653
>Came with pineapple
You did it again, autocorrect.
>>5397658
Destroyed as in most of it's still together, but parts of it have fallen off and I'm not 100% if it's still completely in my Lego bin. Both of the engines and most of the main hull are gone, although I've seen most of the big round pieces in my tub.
>>5397654
This looks pretty cool desu
>>5397654
I never noticed before that the canopy was yellow.
>>5397661
>implying Ananas Skywalker isn't going to bring balance to the force
>>5397615
y-wings not appearing in episode 7 was retarded.
>>5397654
Why did it come with Snips and Flyguy? I thought the Twilight was their main ship.
>>5397675
They use a lot of ships during the show, including Y-Wings.
>>5397674
They only built new Xwings as the new ones are supposed to be modular with their payload. They can swap round whats in the nosecone so they can essentially carry payloads that Y wings can.
>>5397586
>they don't want a child disappointed to find that the brand new set has a shield he's already scanned multiple times over.
I could have figured this out by just looking at the damn boxes, but I didn't care- I was going to buy them all anyway. Now that I have them all, I see that several sets have duplicate shields. I was mad when I first realized it.
>>5397675
Yes, but that was destroyed later on IIRC, plus the new Y-wing was used only briefly by Anakin and Ahsoka, and more heavily by regular clone pilots.
More pragmatically, Lucasfilm wanted to sell new toys.
>>5397674
>old Clone Wars ships
>already breaking down by the Galactic Civil War
>should've been in Episode VII
Seriously?
>>5397680
Was there a specific episode or set of episodes where their Y-Wing use was notable, though? A mass-produced version of ship should have a bunch of clones, not the main guys.
>>5397662
>keeping your lego bricks in a big tub
>together
you fucking manchild
>>5397692
Same reason they included Princess Leia's ceremonial outfit with the other Y-Wing. Named characters drive sales better than generic characters.
>>5397692
If it was used even once by the main characters, that's more than enough reason for them to be included in the set.
Was someone able to scan those powers that are shown in help video in app?
>>5397695
Actually, I keep most of my lego stuff built as they are out of the box, while all of my childhood lego is still in one big tub and one smaller box. I just had a crisis of space and had to sacrifice a few sets.
Today is a good day. I just got 16 of these Rebel troopers from Bricklink, and the guy that said he'd send me two gold lightsaber hilts actually did and they're here too. Thanks man, you're awesome! My Jedi will look so awesome when I make her.
>>5397776
*Tips fedora
>>5397654
Was the canopy a sticker or a print?
>>5397803
I don't have it myself to confirm.
>>5397644
6 powers under my woes
you know how dat shit go
>>5397602
Get a job, hippie.
>>5397233
>YA is about making a world for characters, Star Wars and other sci-fi was about characters making a world.
>>5397363
Thanks now I can't wait to get home...
Not sure if I should leave the skirt on or not. Wat do?
>>5397880
Take it off and see if you like that more.
>it looks better now
Then put the skirt away into your minifig parts bin.
>i dont like it as much
Then put the skirt back on.
>>5397880
I want that fig the skirt looks cool imo
Anyone still have their Original Grevious?
Mine's got some playwear, but he still looks as good as ever.
>>5397230
I got Lavaria this weekend. Along with Macy and Clay. Had Aaron from last wek.
Lavaria is easily my favorite. Aaron second. I should go back and get Beast master.
But I think I'm going to get Merlok's Library or Lance's Mecha Horse next.
>>5397909
All the white droid arms clips snapped. I only have 1 intact one left and I barely used them.
>>5397909
I have him in pieces in my minifigure bin
cape, too
>>5397684
>but it's an all purpose fighter now
that's just bullshit to excuse the new director's shit ability to world build and/or their over concern about what the average moviegoer thinks star wars is
>>5397928
It's weird how so many people think anyone gives a shit what they think of the new Star Wars movie.
Protip: nobody cares.
>>5397928
The old X-wing was all purpose in the other films there was just a limited number so they used Y-wings to bolster their ranks as they had a bunch of the shitpieces lying about.
>>5397928
>I don't like when things change so it is objectively bad
Any other personal opinions you want to share while you are here.
>>5397939
they weren't bombers, though, and they didn't fill the 'fast interceptor' role of the A wings either
Speaking of star wars vehicles that need some love and attention...
>>5397945
>defending having only two combat ship designs
>being a smarmy bitch about it
>>5397948
Here let this photo of the rouge one X-wing distract you.
>>5397948
No they didn't i agree with you they were somewhere inbetween, what's the phrase used for that?
OH YEAH IT'S ALL PURPOSE FIGHTER.
>>5397954
>it's just Poe Damerons fighter with the wings swapped out
I get it saves them money but come on.
>>5397960
What do you mean?
>>5397966
It looks like they stripped the prop of Poe's fighter from the start of the force awakens and slapped different wings on it.
>>5397960
Not even close
>>5397957
Yeah, just like how the US scrapped all their other planes once they built the first all-purpose fighter since all other aircraft became useless!
Also, the term is actually 'multirole aircraft.'
>>5397960
>>5397971
It's very much a different prop, anon.
>>5396926
I have exactly the same display case, anon, but didn't decide yet how to organize figs in it.
I would put the figs plates on a bigger one like pic related, would be more stable.
"Join me Link, and I will make your face the greatest in Koridai!"
>>5398016
>Noo! Not into the Sarlacc pit! It buurns!
>>5398016
So is it any good? Been eyeballing one myself
>>5398035
Well, this made me realize I really fucking hate building bionicles.
It's poseability is amazing, though some poses show the skeleton of the legs and arms. I'm happy with it.
>>5397482
Bullshit anon. City, ninjago and some of the new star wars wave have dropped.
>>5398046
Bionicle sets or just Technic sets? The most notable part of the Vader set is that unlike most action figure builds, his torso is made up entirely of regular Technic bits.
Hoers
>>5397448
Seen this one?
>>5398075
What is that anyway? Beans Tornado?
>>5398072
Well that's cool.
