Nice! I still need to pick up two of the Sith Trooper Battle Packs from my local Target before they go out of stock . . . I have plans for them. Awesome sets but gawd those new blasters are fugly.

If I add a few pieces they might look alright on my Inquistadores, who have kind of a bulky look to them anyway. The more detailed blasters looked a bit flimsy in their hands even if I added some pieces.

The old microphone blasters with one of those nozzle handle pieces plugged into them make great guns for normal infantry I've found. The new blasters however, make EXCELLENT grenade launchers I've found.

The sets arrived and I've incorporated them into my Scifi factions. Can't wait to show the results, but first I need to finish that forum battle and clean up that battlefield to make some space for pictures (I have literally less than half a square metre of space to put stuff right now...

).

Nice - I recently got this set too. I haven't finished building it yet, though.
I'm planning on getting the
Ideas Medieval Blacksmith when it comes out. The AFOL whining about its roof on Eurobricks is already painful to read.

Same here, haven't put it together yet.

Boy, you weren't kidding: "Something about the blue sticks out to my eye. After reading your comments, it dawned on me that moss typically grows in ares with dirt, so starting on gutters, etc. would be the most logical place. It seems unusual that the dirt would be on the peak of the steepest part of the roof with the most exposure to sunlight (unless that is a north facing side of the building in which case I would expect it to have vines etc. on it and a wholly dirty roof). I would think that it would grow in the corners of the dormers. I think I will modify my version to have some olive small limbs extend over some roof tiles to try and make it more appealing to my eye. Regardless, I think that they did a good job making the flatter portion of the roof darker, since, as you say, it is likely dirtier."
This is why I don't go on Eurobricks much, too much pointless whining about moss growth and not enough pointless bloodshed and violence.

I imagine the guy who wrote that to be holding a pipe with one hand and occasionally twirling his moustache with his other hand while typing.
I started putting together that Ninjago set today, did 4 of the 9 bags. Man it's huge

The figs and accessories are pretty sick and the dragon is gonna be really badass though.

I couldn't help myself and ordered an army of 18 Ninjago goblins, 16 Ninjago orcs and 16 of the Ninjago cobra cultist dudes, along with some various other parts and pieces. They'll probably band together to form some new wild faction on Medivo.
