They won't get the Warcrafr license due to disagreements with Blizzard, something regarding new molds for literally everything, if I'm correct.

>something regarding new molds for literally everything, if I'm correct.

Yeah, Blizzard wanted new models for the figures, not to use typical minifigures. Lego said no. So Blizzard went with Mega Blocks and the fail train went off the rails.

>>5410307
>Blizzard wanted new models

>literally only Tauren would really need new models

>>5410319
But orcs are a bit buffer than normal people and both elves are taller (but not as tall as each other) and dwarves have to be shorter than normal, and gnomes even shorter than them again.

>>5410324
tall lego legs and short lego legs exist

>>5410332
Nope, not acceptable. Blizzard wanted badass highly poseable new figures that would have cost a ton to produce to Lego's standards. They wanted custom everything for their minis. Lego said no. Mega Blocks said "Hell yeah!" and then the line died because Blizzard failed to realize that WoW isn't Halo.

>>5410335
Is the blizzard line discountinued?

>>5410344

WoW Megabloks hasn't been in stores for years.

>>5410346
Check the local walmart in Buffalo, MN.
I see them every time i go there, sitting there, getting cheaper and cheaper.

My local Toys R Us at one point had them 50% off AND buy-1-get-1 free.

They still weren't moving, but full-price Halo sets were selling.

>>5410360

Funny, I actually live in MN.

But the last place I saw them was TRU, and that was probably two years ago.

And even at that, TRU usually ends up hanging onto toylines for like a year or two after they're totally phased out.

I figured the WoW Megabloks haven't been relevant in a long time.

>>5410346
Sorry, germany here.
And Megabloks are not widely distributed besides toys R us.
Since im not so often in a toystore or toys r us, i didnt knew its gone.

>>5410377

That's alright, man. Realistically, the only reason Megabloks does so well is because they have the Halo license. If they didn't have that, they probably would have faded away like Kre-O, since most of the other properties they run don't last particularly long.

Is the anon who was giving away free pieces still around?

Is it too late?

Personally no, but that's because /tg/ is a pretty fast board, so any Brikwars or Mobile Frame Zero thread will fall off simply due to lack of content.
I have pondered the idea of a Lego in Gaming General, but never really got around to making it.
Also reminds me that I need to ask a man about a Brikwar during a Gaming Con...

I feel like the Ninjago line has some decent-ish smaller playsets, actually. It's just that some of the designs are so friggen' outlandish.

The biggest ones all seem to be shrines, or temples or whatever, and they all have pretty neat designs.

There are even some pretty small or medium-sized sets that are actual playsets and have pretty neat designs.

>>5410605
They've probably used £ to PLN instead of euro.
Fortunately the Lego shop nearby had them for 38.

>>5409654
>Who do I have to fucking blow at Lego to make this an actual thing?

First you need to go at Bruxelles to blow Nick Rodwell (maybe have a threesome with Granny Fanny).

I haven't dabbled in Lego too much lately, but the Nexo Knight sets caught my eyes because of that magitech theme.

I got the Rumble Blade and the Lavaria minifig and they're totally cool. Building the launching mechanism for the two side cars and then the sword plane. Lavaria's evil spider body, little robot minifigs, little goblin minifig also didn't expect the stud-launching crossbow. All cool (and new to me) concepts with Lego in general.

My Target didn't have all the sets right now but I saw the rest of the minifig sets for the other characters, and some of the other vehicles like the motorcycle horse, which also looked great. One of them was a little building playset with a loli minifig which I hadn't seen before either.

Only complaints about the Nexo stuff:

The shields are a bit too big, makes them a little unwieldy, Clay's big sword is a little big and difficult to pose, and the new helmet masks don't stay very secure and flip up a bit easily.

Well the Forum is a good place to discuss and browse what other have done, with the wiki supplementing that.

A cool Gimmick, but to make it work you need to up the part count on everything, resulting in big expensive sets parents aren't willing to buy for their kids.

>>5411356
>>5411357
i mostly dont like it because of the few sets i bought, the builds wernt fun at all
i personally thing the problem was, while it was clearly two factions "human" v "ailen"
the aliens had subpar builds that just threw in parts to make it actually look like the intended stuff
build a giant blob, then add some legs and mandables, bam, you got a spider or some shit.

the humans also were decided, its clear they designed each color faction with a theme in mind, being robots, heavy weapons, or whatever.

they ended up making a line, where people might end up liking only 1/5 of it

>I think it was the combining Vehicle aspect...

That's great, but tons of other themes have used that, and it has never been a problem. Maybe not in every set like the GS line, but most sets--especially in the space lines--have modular vehicles. Especially the large ships. The sets were really no more or less expensive than in other themes/lines. Besides, I'd think kids would love stuff like that anyway; Getting one set that has a large vehicle, than can turn into two or three smaller vehicles. Kids eat that shit up.

Even Clay's vehicle in the Nexo Knights does this, and people love it there.

>>5411443

I admit that the bug alien sets weren't particularly interesting or very good (though the Hive Crawler thing was pretty cool) but the human sets were all pretty nice.

I don't think there was even one set I didn't really like out of the human vehicles.

How'd I do, boys?

I did not realize the little Nexo sets like Chaos catapult have shields you can scan at the end of the instructions.

Jesus christ, there are more posts about lego on /tv/ right now than in this thread.


Finally bit the bullet and got a sealed vader tie fighter.

>>5411591
How much did that cost? I wanted to make the AT-AT MOC that someone posted earlier and it would cost over $90 on bricklink.

>>5411757
$90 doesnt seem that bad, honestly. Part count? Can you get it all from one store, or is it a multi-order?

>>5411765

Not the same guy but getting your entire MOC in a single store is pretty hard to do, especially if you're trying to save money.

A good estimation of how much a set will cost is about $0.10 per brick. It's not exactly but generally works.

Gal and I picked up pic related in our local Lego store i in anticipation for v-day. Cute build.

How likely is it that the Lego Detective Office goes out of stock/print within the next two months? My girlfriend is likely picking it up for my birthday soon, and I want to make sure it won't be oop.

>>5411845

Not likely at all. It just came out this time last year, and it usually takes 2-3 years for modulars to retire.

Probably even longer now, since the Petshop and Theater are still available, and they're from 4 or 5 years ago.

>>5411848
Thanks man. Was a bit nervous, since I saw the Theater was "Limited Time Only" in the Lego store, and I'd never gotten a modular building before (sucks growing up poor).

If I may offer my personal thoughts. Lego had the last laugh. Blizz needed NEW EVERYTHING, Lego wanted to make it fit in with their stuff. So the companies went in different directions. MegaBloks Warcraft died. But Lego gave us their version of WoW Lego anyway.

>Chima: Classic minifigs with new head molds (with classic heads underneath) - covered both bases, what lego wanted (adult fans/purists can swap helmets) plus what Blizz wanted (unique new molds). Would have worked as a compromise.

Chima sets:
Good guy lions (alliance human), VS bad guy greenskins (orcs). Wolf guys are in a sort of alliance with crocs with their own agenda (forsaken).

Maybe other vague matches. Gorillas are savage race with thing for hammers (tauren+dorf?) Etc.

Anyway. Expansion 1 (Wave 2 sets): Literally called outland, going to new land to find bug monsters.
Expansion 2 (Wave 3): Northrend, enemies are frost/ice themed undead zombie monsters.

And now Nexo knights, where Deathwing's human form (Moltor [with spiky shoulders] + General Magmar's Jaw piece) leads the fel orcs to war in the latest expansion, warlords of lavaworld. (/Burning Crusade).

The main difference? Every Chima Tribe and even the Lava armies have female characters. Megabloks never even finished making the playable races, nevermind female versions of the ones they had (Minus Jaina and possibly NElf?)

Anyway. We already have WoW Lego. And it's awesome.

I would say a mix of both?
Your foot is better and the height is better to let the body look round.
But their surface on the body looks better, not so blocky.

GL anon, gonna be making an order of minifig parts soon. After that it's just saving up for bigger sets.

>>5412577
It should be fine! Don't worry about it, if there's any problems you can contact your seller.

You may or may not have begun a slide on a ong and slippery slope.

Mhh,
there are many who remember it.
In 2009 they did a special remake for PC, Xbox360/live, ipad/iphone.
They hand draw everything anew, full audiotext and ingame switch between original and new graphic.

You can buy it in the lego stores. And as far as i can say for germany, mostly these "exclusives" are sold in other stores.
In germany you can get exclusives as far as i can tell in toys r us or in department store chain too.
Only if its special "lego store only" you might only find it in te lego store and smaller stores dont get it.

>>5412577
Good luck that it comers quick.
I never had any problems, so i bet you wont too.

Sets that are "exclusive" to other retailers (like Target, Walmart, TRU, etc) can also always be found at the actual LEGO store.

I think they're all under LEGO's "Hard to find" category.

At least, that's how it works in the US.

I was in Tesco today and it seems they've just fucked up the prices of smallest sets.
Those that were supposed to cost 40 PLN are 63 (microfigthers, ultimate nexos, smallest creator sets and bionicle). Prices of others are the same as those on S@H.

Also they have Chain Cycle Ambush for 99,99.

Anyone know of a place that has the astromech printings for head and body available for use as custom stickers? I'd love to be able to make custom astromechs with some printable sticker paper.

>>5412662
Is that a custom droid? Or which set does it come in? I bought Plo Koon's fighter because I thought it came with a cool looking droid, but I forgot that Clone Wars astromechs have retardo prints on them.

It's the head from the Microfighter X-Wing and the body from the Advent Calendar Christmas tree astromech.

>>5412666
Its the head from the X wing Microfighter from wave 1 and the body of Festive Astromech from 2014 advent calendar

>>5412675
>>5412674
Oh, shame about that then.

>>5412666
What's wrong with Clone Wars astros?

>want to make kingdoms for every kind of monster Lego make (Ghosts, Snakes, Goblins etc)

>keep making new monsters where their fortress is a $100+ set

kill me pls

>>5412682
Completely different print from "movie" astros, much worse scale and positioning of the print on the dome. Also generally less detail.

>>5412577
good luck anon, it should be fine. Most bricklink sellers are decent people.

suddenly I realize most of my collection is from bricklink rather than sets...

tesco shoot themselves in the foot with this one, these are the best est for their price, not too expensive, not too small

add 7 zl and you can buy duck hunt, or proper propeller plane creator set.

My latest MOC, built from the parts of two http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/75078_Imperial_Troop_Transport

For now I'm just calling it a Heavy Troop Transport. Might come up with a fancy name later. Goliath Transport?

>>5412714
Haven's seen that one there.
And I do remember that some of the smallest Creator sets like Power Digger were 30 PLN in Tesco.
