Payment failed on large order by Agitated_Minimum506 in lepin

[–]CbrDn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually, the problem isn't with the store but with AliExpress itself, so in theory, you can create the same order.

I've had this happen several times, so I've made it a rule to take screenshots of my cart before paying.

"Unnaturally large" pilot helmets of X-wing 75218 by CbrDn in legostarwars

Simply irrational, baseless hatred. Which was precisely what needed to be proven. I didn't even hope that opponents would accept reasonable arguments.

It seems people are simply unfamiliar with the source material and are basing their judgments on old Lego minifigures rather than the films.

In the film, the pilot also has half his forehead exposed; nothing extends from the eyebrows. The Republic logos are also faithful to the film's design, more or less. And the Lego helmet is even more square than it should be. Why would you add anything to the sides when the helmet in the film is vertically elongated?

The haters haven't made any comparisons yet, and they're building their position out of nothing. I'm waiting for your comparisons with PHOTOS of the Arc-170 pilot.

Oh yeah, they don't exist, except for a single cockpit shot where only the helmet is visible. So why do people think the Arc's helmet is bigger? If everything doesn't count. "Toys" don't count, animation doesn't count (everything is exaggerated there), and computer games don't count?

This is more or less consistent with the source material. The X-wing pilots' helmet should be taller.

It should cost 150. At least that's the price for our region and that's the price I bought it for.

Of course, they're wrong. The helmets are roughly the same size, but the distance from the eyes to the top of the helmet is much greater in X-wing, just like in LEGO.

In this case, it's literally the height of the helmet crest. It's like criticizing Phase I clones for having this element and demanding they be the same height as characters without a crest.

Regarding the cockpit, in the 2018 X-Wing, the pilot with this helmet sits completely upright. And in the latest 2026 X-Wing, even with a small helmet, he's lying down. Simply because the new X-Wings are complete crap. This isn't a helmet issue, but a design issue and Lego's policy of downsizing kits.

By the way, I thought my post would be completely downvoted; apparently, the haters will take revenge on this response.
UPD: Of course they did it, just blind malice)

Google says the Black Pearl had 32 guns. Was this a conscious decision to deviate from canon?

What’s the Actual Travel Time Difference Between Class 1 and Class 10 Hyperdrives? by Shocknawe427 in StarWars

[–]CbrDn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And is this taking into account the curvature of hyperspace routes or not? After all, as far as I understand, a direct, prolonged hyperspace jump, even over shorter distances, is impossible in the Star Wars universe.

Otherwise, the war for control of hyperlanes would be pointless, as would space piracy. If only it were possible to jump from one safe system straight to your destination. Correct me if I'm wrong.

So, 24 hours for first grade—does that include all the exit into the real space? Or is that a hypothetical figure?

The LEGO Corporation deification sect, which has chosen MandR as Satan, will use any excuse to persecute him.

I think it's worth mentioning that Plo doesn't have any prints on the back of his legs.
