FS:LEGO No.10245 Santa's Workshop With Lighting Kits
jonathanwilson posted a topic in Buy/Sell/Trade
Lite up block releases new Lego 10245 Santa's Workshop with lighting kits at affordable price for all Lego lovers. -
Just something that occurred to me the other day. Given that LEGO, to the best of my knowledge, plans most of its products well over a year in advance, and given that a line of sets must be extremely popular to merit a further line of recolored versions, it follows that LEGO originally had something other than the Bohrok Kal in mind for the Spring 2003 canister wave. So, do we have any knowledge of what was initially planned, or am I simply wrong in my assumptions?

here you can talk about beyblade.Has anyone here seen Bey-ta(beta) stadium? What did you think of it?

Just saw the trailer for LEGO: The Movie. It looks pretty good and I am pretty sure I will see it when it comes out. Loving how it looks like stop-motion (or is it CGI? Hard to tell). -TNTOS-

Theo payed an unexpected visit to his grandson's house."Who are you?" asked Michael."I am you grandfather, Theophilus Rhodes Zweifel," he said. He stood in the doorframe for a full beat before Michael turned around to look at a woman with short hair and bangs hanging in his face, the woman that Theo knew from the pictures in the newspapers was his granddaughter-in-law. What a shame he wasn't invited to the wedding.Ah, and how precisely like his father, Leonidas, did Michael appear. The same narrow features, the same princely looks, the same flaming orange hair that crowned the head of every man in the Zweifel family. It was a shame that Michael had lost his eyes in such a tragic accident."I'm not sure who you are, but you should leave," said Michael, and he closed the the door, but Theo blocked it with his foot."Not so fast, son," he said. "I know you lost your eyes, and you can't see me, but the physical resemblence that you have with your father, and therefore me...well, let's just say that my instinctive narcissism fills me with pride."That shy young lady, so thin, so hidden, slowly came up from behind Michael. He looked down to where he felt her hand on his arm. "He does look like you, just thought I'd mention it.""Well, regardless, you will let me in. I'm the current head of the treasury. I have some authority. Not that it demands that I be let in, but I'm an important man in the government all the same. It looks like the same could be said of you, Michael!"Michael backed up. Theo allowed himself entrance into the room, unashamed of himself."I'm familiar with the name. Head of banking or something like that," said Michael."You heard the name and didn't wonder if, by chance, that some Swiss immigrant with the same name as you was of some relation?" said Theo. "Well, as it happens, I have been unable to contact your father. Have you been in touch, Michael?""We don't talk.""Ah, like father, like son like grandson," said Theo. He leaned in with a smile. "I think that it's about time that we break that tradition. I would like to work with you, Micahel. You're perhaps the richest man alive thanks to your lucky investments. Very lucky investments, not to mention the surreal experiences you've gone through that make you quite unlike any man alive. Yet, you have no friends, only a wife and a sister to keep you company. What a strange hermit you are. With my help, I think this company you own could contribute to the world in brand new ways. What do you say?""Get out," said Michael."No, I don't think I will. See, I pulled some strings. I'm afraid that by several unique legal requirements, you must work with me. I just wanted to see if you would have shook my hand otherwise. Good day, Michael. I will see you tomorrow at work."Theo tipped his hat and left, flashing another evil smile. He was the luckiest grandfather in the world.

I was originally going to make a lengthy blog post about my debating philosophy, but I decided that would be too boring. So instead, I'll talk about my new toy, Furno XL, one of the new Hero Factory Brain Attack sets that came out this year. I got him last night when I saw him at Wal-Mart; lucky thing, too, because he was one of the last two Furno XLs they had, if I remember correctly. I've been wanting to buy Furno XL for a while, and he doesn't disappoint. Love the knight look. He's not super complicated or anything, build-wise, and suffers from "shield hand" syndrome, but overall I am quite pleased with him. He's my favorite HF set I own, although I suppose that doesn't mean much considering how few HF sets I have to begin with. I recommend him to anyone looking for a good HF set to add to their collection. He's got articulation, an awesome design, and a cool cape. What more could you want ? -TNTOS-

Wow, one of my biggest hauls ever... So I'm out visiting family here in Kentucky, and I went on a little hunting (aka driving around to various Walmarts, Targets and TRUs for plastic crack) trip to Lexington after a friend tipped me off that the town was loaded with new stuff. I came out having spent several hundred dollars on some stuff that I've been searching high and low for back home, ah sweet victory, I snagged- STAR WARS SAGA- Pre-Cyborg Grievous (about $10) HOT WHEELS- Probably like every variation of the VULTURE model to come out in the last 8 or so years, and some other misc. cars I found at the flea market that I had as a kid to keep mint on card. (about $15) TF ANIMATED- Leader Megatron and Bulkhead (about $80 total) Voyager Optimus, Grimlock and Lugnut (about $60) Deluxe Oil Slick, Soundwave/Laserbeak, Jazz, and Snarl (about $40) Mcdonalds Optimus, Bumblebee, Megatron, Ratchet (x2), Lugnut (x2) (about $14) TF UNIVERSE- Deluxe Prowl, Sunstreaker and Tankor (about $30) Legends Onslaught, Red Alert and Starscream (about $15) Robot Heroes Megatron/Rattrap, Sunstreaker/Galvatron, Blackarachnia/Cheetor, and Blitzwing/Hound (about $30) MCFARLANE HALO 3 SERIES 2- Brute Stalker, Gamestop Steel ODST, and Specialty Store White EVA Spartans (about $45) Needless to say I'm STILL not caught up (still need a couple TF movie and universe figures, Halo exclusives, and new Bionicle sets) and I've got almost $100 worth of Halo figures waiting for me back home at the local comic store that they've put on hold for me. THEN you've got the whole San Diego Comic-con exclusive debacle coming up later this week... Basically, this is a friggin' expensive hobby, but I am loving every bit of it. DtM
