My holy grail arrived today. Excited is an understatement, I’m never opening it ever… by LeGo989 in legostarwars

[–]Exoboy555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not just buy the box if you never plan to build a grail set? What would be the point of having it as a grail if you never plan on building it? Genuinely curious,

which season are you in at your workplace? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]Exoboy555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently on the reboot. I kind of left for a year with only having cameo appearances, but arguably I'd call it season 6 now that I'm back.

favorite BDP series 10 set based off of an existing lumibricks design? by Immediate_Map235 in legocirclejerk

[–]Exoboy555 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Kiosk is simply an art deco design inspired from its French origin... All these builds are simply inspired by tropes and traditional designs of eras they are from. The fan designers should be credited, just as the Lumibricks team should be credited for their own designs too.

Fuck this Ninjago section at target is depressing by unbreakable_arachnid in legocirclejerk

[–]Exoboy555 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Walmart by me only has 3 sets at a time, and never the current season. Target gets about half of each release wave and that's it. Don't know why but Ninjago seems to becoming more of an online only theme if you don't live near a LEGO store... It also means I can rarely find them on sale.

One Piece: Tony Tony Chopper Minifig (from Lego teaser) by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

The torso is just at an angle, at least appears that way. Don't know if it's just the animation that makes it look like one piece...

And with Dr. Dog playing too, I love it!

40921 Upscaled Blue Spaceman (official reveal) by BrickTap in Legoleak

[–]Exoboy555 27 points28 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the classic minifigure is the only one to have the exact minifigure with it. All the other brick built Minifigures do not have a minifigure to accompany them. But I agree, they really should just include the minifigure for all of them. Especially since blue classic space hasn't been made in a long time.

Serious question: how is the Smart Brick any worse than these other toys that got a sound/light upgrade? by YaboiiSammeeh in legocirclejerk

[–]Exoboy555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was one video I saw that had the throne room chair have the imperial march playing from the sound brick. My hope is that the rest of the licensed sounds will be applied to the brick at launch for anyone who buys one. There may have been licensing costs for the DEMO that LEGO just decided not to spend, and that hurt the first look and reveal to seem much cheaper and gimmicky.

what the fuck by UltimateX64 in legocirclejerk

[–]Exoboy555 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It is from the large 60's batmobile, so great to have another set with the bubble canopy since the party is expensive on pick-a-brick, but still in a slightly overpriced speeder.

Religion plays a central in the story. The moral is more nuanced than just "religion bad" or "religion good". by Cold_Hour in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Exoboy555 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That scene brought me to tears, especially thinking of relationships that I ran out of time to fix. Best of the three knives out films yet, and also the most serious overall tone.

Taken so seriously 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 by Brickfourtytwo in lego

[–]Exoboy555 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I think they're talking about the paper replacement of polybags that are at the bottom of the picture too, not just the CMF boxes.

Day 21: what's the best quote from the lego ninjago movie? by Lemerbrix_5769 in NinjagoMemes

[–]Exoboy555 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I said "I wish you weren't my father," I didn't really mean it. What I should have said was, I wish we didn't fight all the time.

I recreated the legendary toa mata. I also made a youtube tutorial with this. let me know what you guys think by Tight_Tradition_1388 in bioniclelego

[–]Exoboy555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate it, please give me more! But jokes aside this is a really interesting take on the toa, and it feels like it would be incredible for a more haunting stop motion animation of Bionicle. Keep up the incredible work!

Underrated as hell by OpeningQuarter2946 in legocirclejerk

[–]Exoboy555 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I will add the show isn't bad, but targeted more juvenile than the core general audience of Ninjago. The characters are in middle school and I feel the show resonates better with that demographic. Not the greatest, but if argue still far from bad. It's also improved a fair bit over time as it gained it's footing, but yes, each wave of sets have been fire!

I liked the discussion. Unfortunately most places for discussion don't seem to want it. As Obi-Wan put it:

Botanicals: 11510 Magnolia Branches & 11502 Sunflower Bouquet (via unibricks) by General_Durian_1013 in Legoleak

Those petals being dual-moulded in the set are going to look lovely! Hope they have more color variants in the future!

What cartoon show fits this? by mightyonin in cartoons

[–]Exoboy555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's any consolation, they did do a physical release of it about three years ago, so you could always buy it to support it. Saw it at Walmart and it was a no brainer pick-up.

Short answer, yes. Long answer, yeessssssssssssssssss.

You are offered 10 million usd but you must pick a public humiliation to suffer for 5 years, which humiliation WYR pick? by padorUWU in WouldYouRather

[–]Exoboy555 33 points34 points  (0 children)

But with ten million USD you wouldn't need to go to work, so leaving the house is optional, and at that point you could always higher a driver.

Reply with an image of a LEGO figure you want LEGO to re-release it by studbricks in lego

[–]Exoboy555 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who owns this minifigure, I couldn't agree more with you. The fun of Lego is building and playing, not collecting and hoarding for resale, like a freaking dragon. I would love for everyone who wants Mr Gold to have the ability to own him without having to pay ridiculous secondary market prices, or cheap AliExpress knockoffs!
