Did some more experimenting with my Intercept Orbit carrier build, including a couple iterations of the primary joint. Happy with it now. It's extremely pose-able - nose and tail have a wide range of motion. The chassis & secondary wings rotate freely around the inner bay. The bay itself has enough room to physically enclose a couple of micro-scale mechs or starfighters. Parts could be more matching, I suppose.

Criticism welcome.

>>5569606
TRU team member here, managers can override the street date, Which should have been done. Yes that was the stores fault the product was put out early, but we'd just let you buy it, collect the ones that are still out and put them in a street date bay in the back.

>>5569609
>>5569617
There are more than just lego that are marked as street dated, happens with movies, music, video games, and a few other toys as well.

I'm also thinking that those boxes weren't clearly marked, this happens a lot. It's supposed to have a big sticker with the date on there, but sometimes promo items and shippable inners are not marked this way.
I made a big mistake of putting Mega Yarn Yoshi restocks out even though they weren't marked.

Stopped. I already wanted to stop when he was making those rap-sounds at the and but decided to stop cringing and continue but then.
It was like...

Why USA suddenly went so nigger? I understand that gangstas are badass but WHY you think Batman would ever have that retarded music as his theme?
I guess its because im from europe and i never seen gangstars/rap music being popular here. But this is like the lowest level of shit that makes me to turn player off no matter what.

Im not used to that feeling. I guess because i dont choose obviously autistic figures.
Why you think that "classic pre-joints" figures are good? They were shit even back in 90s.
And that guy with bat-helmet...I dont know. Even as 90s kid i would think that he's quite shitty because of boring colors and dull design.

Basil Bat Lord however...this motherfucker is still awesome. May be his facial paint is outdated but even that is not that much of a problem.

How about because it's fucking funny.
It's funny because it's so silly and out of character. Like the idea of Batman waiting in front of a microwave for his lobster to cook, wearing a bathrobe and his mask while making bored sounds. Or the entirety of Batman in the Lego Movie, where he has a tremendous ego, an obsession with subwoofers and acts like a spoiled child/teenager.

Rap is not the type of music you expect Batman to listen to, let alone attempt. So when you hear Batman talking about "laying down some sick or fat beats" it's funny. When he says "Batman Out!... Wait, Batman back in" because he forgot to do a mic drop, it's funny not only because he forgot to do the mic drop, but because it's Batman doing a fucking mic drop.

>Im not used to that feeling. I guess because i dont choose obviously autistic figures.
Excuse me sir, please try to be environmentally conscious and place your trash opinions in the bin instead of typing them out here

I love basil but I love the stone guardian statue more. It has "boring" colors because guess what, it's stone. It isn't really boring unless you have the attention span of a fish

Also the classic legoland figures aren't supposed to be "WOAH BADASS DUDE LMAO SO GLAD WE ARE 16 WEED LMAO" but they are supposed to be a more refined taste for the more aesthetic oriented eyes. This is because they are cool antiques and tell a tale without looking like a michael bay movie molded in plastic. e.g. ninjago
>>
>>5570196
Yeah but we all know that is over simplified of an explanation. You'd have to be naive to think that kids nowadays could sit through different music.

This tactic in hollywood developed a synthetic demographic in the 90s. Rap begun to replace all kinds of soundtracks and scores because the youth connected with it, and if Lego Batman was only using rap to make a simple joke, we wouldn't hear it all throughout the trailer.

Remember the scene in Deadpool where they all do the cool walk and rap music starts.
It was an interesting and self-conscious scene but I said to myself "ENOUGH WITH THE FUCKING NIGGER MUSIC"

Agreed. God bless.


I have noticed that on all figures that I have bought, majority are post 2004, they all have what looks like a straight line split under their arms
Was this a stress relief feature added to the torso for arm problems?
Or is it just an actual stress crack?
All the torsos have them and they all look identical
The only early figure I have right now is 2000 Boba Fett and he is the only one without these

Just for funsies, I wrote a letter to customer service.

Good Morning.

I'm writing today to address a concern regarding Toys R' Us store # <12345>, located at <123 Fake Street>. I brought my son in early yesterday morning, around 11AM, so he could pick up a small Lego set of his choosing for doing a great job in school. We found a small Lego Set in a bag called Captain America's Motorcycle from the superheroes line.

He was very excited, so he picked up a handful of them, which was around 3 bags, and wanted to leave right away so he could build them. After being in line for a long time, because only one checkout lane was open, we were denied sale of the item. The manager, Nick, then had told me that I cannot purchase the item because it was street dated because of the movie. I asked him if there was anythign he could do since the items were on the shelf, with a price tag and everything, right next to other Captain America sets. Unfortunately, the manager could not do anything.

I had to explain to my autistic son that he cannot buy the set, and I had to take out some of the sets from his hands, which ended up in him almost crying. I just had to run back and get him a different set from the same line, which was somehow okay to sell.

I'd like to ask that if such items are street dated, why were they out in the aisles, priced? More importantly, why could I buy a different Captain America set from the same movie, while the other item is street dated? Shouldn't they all be street dated for the movie?

Thank you.

I checked a bunch of my minifigs, I have an old desert johnny thunder who has them, and a bunch of figs that are older that don't (classic town, castle, classic space, stuff like that). I'm guessing that this is an intentional thing they started doing in the 90's? Not totally sure, but that's what I can figure.

Two reasons: I saw one used as part of a decoy dummy minifig in a SP3 episode, and because I wanted a white one to use as a straitjacket.

>>5570556
>>5570547
A bunch of my figs from the 80s-90s have seams that run from the center of the arm socket all the way to the bottom of the torso (either straight down, or terminating at the bottom rear corner). My CMF Zombie Cheerleader has the same line yours does, but as your picture shows, it stops halfway between the socket and the bottom of the torso. It's just a side effect of the manufacturing process.

This might not have looked like much, but it was by far the most intricate and complicated act of heresy I have ever accomplished, but in the end I consider it a success. The fact that the mustache overlapped the mouth on both sides made it really difficult to remove, because you need a "runway" between the pieces of tape to be able to really get some good smooth abrasion without leaving a bunch of scratch marks. At one point I had five pieces of tape on the head.

I was a little worried at the end, because even though the Brasso didn't hurt the printing, the repetitive application of Scotch tape started to pull the printing off of the mask/eyes region. I was able to touch up both the mask and the eye itself in a way that I hope nobody can notice.

ey, what are my options for selling a retired modular building? US here

>>5570883
I have plans of trying similar heretic acts, but I don't want to use tape for that reason. I still have to find what the tropical rainforest version of brasso is though.

Which set?
>>
>>5570905
It didn't start to come off until the third time I pulled tape off, but the amount of surface sealant varies by part and manufacture date so you might have better or worse luck. I was really surprised how readily it came off with the tape, considering how stubborn it was being on the mustache.

What are you gonna defile?

one thing is the classic skull, I want to remove nose and mouth.

another is this chima piece, I want to remove fur and claws to make useful for zombies

If I can make these happen I'm sure I'll have more ideas
>>
>>5570916

Oh.

Well, that's one of the more valuable ones. Really, your best options are probably to put it up on Bricklink or eBay I guess. Maybe Craigslist, but I think you'd probably get more on BL/eBay.

Doesn't Amazon.com ship to the Amazon?

If you take the legs and hips apart that shouldn't be too hard. swimsuit. Please post a picture if/when you get it accomplished!

Whoops, meant to have "All I can see is a pair of ripped jean shorts, or maybe the bottom of a zombie lady's one-piece swimsuit.
>>
>>5570934
>>5570937
yeah, jeans shorts plus the purple muscle part, while removing the fur part close to it, the other leg will be easy. I have 2 of these so I can swap legs with plain dark blue ones so it won't look like shorts that much.

I was more inspired by Getter Go's/Neo Getter's combination method where one machine forms the top half, another the bottom half and the last one a backpack. In this case I just took a more liberal approach and used one as a scarf with one and just as a weird backpack in the others.
