The official LOOT topic

[Duerer]

My uncle who heard I still collect Lego went and sent me one of those Mindstorms sets. and I feel really bad because I'd only ever use it for a few parts, The concepts of robotic lego doesn't excite me because I'm not 12 years old, and it's not going to "teach me" anything about programming that I don't already know.

Can't return it either because it was bought in the US. Did I mention it costs $400 as well?

Build a giant mech and try to integrate the Mindstorm computer in the build.

Well i got some pretty sick LOOT this season. I know most of it isn't lego but hey its wargaming.

Man, GW is really skipping on the art box, those things are looking a bit bland compared to what I remember. Awesome loot though!

They need to hire Mike.

Do you want the 2010 book to be done before he gets dementia?

I got the first order transport for Manly Santa Day, along with various other gadgets, clothes, and cash.

Disappointed that Captain Phasma's head is only a plain black head piece.

Much to my surprise some stores already had nexo knights, I picked up these as a means to dip into the theme:





Both are pretty great! I'm going to really enjoy this theme. TLG also seems to have had it with Mike and just put out that 2010 book:



They remained faithful to the source as it's full of trolls:

Those new books are awesome

Zahru, what do you think of the knight figs and their armor?

@BFenix - I love the way Aaron looks - figures are cast in pearl silver. The printing is very vibrant and glossy. The new shield is nice and the dualcast armor looks rad too. Figures can look a little encumbered but it's all a matter of posing:



Since the crests of the knights are on their chest and not on the armor piece it makes them easily reusable:

The ultimate ice worlder. I hope the pieces are available on bricks and pieces

I got a new shovel.
Plastic with a metal edge and a HARD WOOD SHAFT.
They even stained it.

The old one still works but its 20 years old and I don't need it breaking when I need it.

I like those heater shields, if that's what they're supposed to be. wish the shields from the old medieval sets were more like that

edit: I didnt realize these were from sets, I thought they were custom molds
