New Additions to my army!

Post by Gunney » Mon Jun 01, 2009 3:35 pm

Right before school got out, I went to the Lego Store in Disney World. As soon as I walked in, I was amazed! I was so amazed I bought a butt load of lego's to improve my army. Before I start the photos however, I'll tell you the updates I made to my armies.

All Pistols were replaced with blaster pistols. All Enforcers recieved blaster rifles. The RPG sqaud recieved pistols and demo charges. The Robot Sqaud lost its mortar bot but received a large upgrade (Which I will show in a second)
Lastly, I gave away all of my Dimmy Lego's + My Medevil Legoes to my cousin. Im also building him barely decent vehicles to keep him content. Mabye one day we'll eventually have our own brik wars vs one another.
One can hope.

Anyways, heres the pics of the new creations I have.

Image
First item I bought was a power miner. I wasn't satisfied with it's rather ugly "weaporny," so I decided to give it some extra punch. Three Rockets plus a Chaingun gives it that little extra Umph.

In the Great Words of Lego Martin Peacher Queen Jr.
"I have a dream, one day, right down there in Brik Wars with its vicious racists and its moderators having their fingers typing the words of peach slaughter and slaughter'fication. I have a dream one day little peach legos and little peach armies will join hands with little yellow lego's and little lego arms as soldiers in equality."

I decided that I needed peaches of my own! With its main cannon, and two side gaurds equipped with blaster pistols and 1 shot rockets, its able to drive in the middle of a formation and unload a powerful salvo.

Image

I also decided to make a Jerry Rig. Yes its ugly, yes its slightly off color, and yes its blocky. Yes also that it has a huge laser cannon and a repeater laser gun with enough armor to make it a gun truck than anything.

Finishing off the first half of the upgrades is the Bruiser Battle Copter, also known as the "Bowser Battle Copter."
I looked at Bowser one day and thought "Man, what if he put some guns on that thing? Then he wouldn't look so boneriffic."

Well, here it is. Two quad linked cannons with a pintel mounted laser cannon for some support against other slow moving copters, this thing is a beauty.
With its cannons dual functionality as landing gear, its also slightly realistic as well. Due please note that there is a turbine in the back to forward movement.


I'll let people soak this one in before I post in my droid army. Comments are welcome!

the only peach minifigure parts in my army are two arms and a head stuck to a poll.

I forgive him for wanting to buy peaches. They make good target practice/organ racketeering "product".

Simple vehicles.

What's so goddamn wrong about buying peaches intentionally? I thought the problem was to buy them when you didn't want to, or when you wanted yellowheads.

the problem with buying peaches intentionally or unintentionally is that you are reinforcing the notion that the yellow mono-racial color that LEGO has been using for decades is "outdated".

We don't want LEGO to think that people like peaches, or they will start phasing them in more and more until eventually all your yellow minifigs actually will be outdated. At least, that is the worst case scenario.

Ok, time for the droid section.

Quick notes again: The old Droid Sqaud got fragged. The Kommando Droids gained blaster pistols and Chainsaws, the Droid Gaurds gained the old Kommando HMG's, and lastly the Kommander (notice im changing all the C's to K's) become something else, which you will see.

Image

Two Sqauds: Plasma Karbines. One Sqaud: Plasma Rifles and Mass Plasma Projector (Equivalent of Rocket Launcher)

Image

Airfleet: Three official sets with small modification to utilize their originally unoffensive cannon pieces. missile colors have also been changed, due to boredom. Droid in Front: Driver. Droid in Rear: Gunner/missile Operator.

Image

Kommand Squad

Image

The Kommander Rides a specially designed Kombat Droid that is autonomous yet can utilize a Human/Robot driver to use its weapons, freeing up processor power into landscape movement handiling.
Its equipped with four repeater lasers and is armored enough to be a walking titanium block.

Image

New Kommando Look.

So theres that.

Up to now, they only use peach or flesh for accuracy. (Batman/Bruce dosn't have yellwo skin)
