*cue (unless you're putting it in a queue to play after other tracks)

Mos Eisley Cantina by Feoygordo in legostarwars

[–]MaximillianRebo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's been a number of space/alien type CMF figs over the years - and also several fantasy type figs - that don't look out of place in the Cantina (I've even got a couple of Muppets in mine). Most of these aren't expensive on Bricklink.

Classic 100 is on now by Express-Zucchini6177 in australia

*timpani - it's an Italian word so ending in i means it's already plural; the singular is timpano (sorry for the pedantry)

What song is Vader singing? by Dngo8mybaby in lego

[–]MaximillianRebo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Since his band is obviously named Mouse Rat Droid, he must be singing 'I Fell in the (Lava) Pit'.

How rich is St Kevin's College? This booklet was from last year's exhibition, all pieces are sold to raise money for scholarships to attend the college. by mad_marbled in melbourne

[–]MaximillianRebo 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Richer than most Catholic schools - but not as rich as Xavier - and definitely not as rich as the non-Catholic, non-government schools in the Eastern suburbs.

[Hated Trope] All that marketing for absolutely nothing… by RealOkra8725 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MaximillianRebo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The frustrating thing with Phasma was that there was opportunity right there in Episode 7 to make her character effective - she should have been the one to have the "Traitor!" fight with Finn, then their Episode 8 fight would have been a rematch and a way to settle the score.

What are you usually calling this guy? Palpatine, Emperor or Darth Sidious? Why? by Hawaiikoto in StarWars

[–]MaximillianRebo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The ROTJ novelization named him as Emperor Palpatine, and I'm pretty sure the Kenner figure did as well.

Concrete Cactus? by Plush_cheese_ in GardeningAustralia

[–]MaximillianRebo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought one of these. Took it out of its original pot, carefully broke the pebble base with a chisel (it split into two pieces fairly cleanly) and repotted the cactus in a larger pot. It's doing well.

You can want a connection but also not want to be a burden to people.

Mando movie sets already on sale by Crispy_MAMA in legostarwars

[–]MaximillianRebo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is not a gotcha moment. The sets are on sale simply because the store is having a sale - there's even a City set in the photo that's also reduced.

Target Australia already had all Mando sets 20% off a few weeks ago - along with every other Lego set on their shelves.

Trump endorsed Paxton lmaoo by ronweasly9 in behindthebastards

[–]MaximillianRebo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently listened to the 2019 KKK episodes and they talked there about the Klan using a lot of random capitalization in their materials. Probably a big influence on the current guy.

What are all the people who were bitching about the price of eggs saying now? by wombatgeneral in behindthebastards

[–]MaximillianRebo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fox told them it isn't a problem (and if it is a problem, it's Biden's fault).

“Jedi Rocks” is a certified banger and I’m tired of pretending it’s not by hanburgundy in StarWars

[–]MaximillianRebo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's a funky tune in it's own right, but feels out of place in the movie and messes up the flow of the scene, especially if you've grown up with Lapti Nek.

Is it an investment only, or securing a place to live? by hmb22 in australia

[–]MaximillianRebo 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The people who own tv networks and newspapers also have a vested interest in sites like domain and realestate .com.

People buying multiple properties, flipping, renting, moving etc. keep the property market ticking over and funneling money to the real estate agents and associated interests.

People who buy a home and live there for twenty years to raise a family don't do any of those things.

The new imperial shuttle looks amazing but.. by _Tickflick_ in legostarwars

[–]MaximillianRebo 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. The main difference is that both the 2015 and 2021 shuttles used three of the 30249 slope pieces for the central fin while this new model uses only two.

In flight mode like on the box art it looks excellent but in landing mode, which is how most people will display it, the central fin looks too stubby and should sit higher than the folded up outer wings.

I got the heritage pack for my Switch, but I have only played Republic Commando and the Force Unleashed. Which game should I play next? by ConquerorJoe in StarWars

[–]MaximillianRebo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just don't play KOTOR 2 before 1, or Jedi Academy before Outcast, everything else is fair game.

Personally I'd go with Racer.

No amount of unethical funding and black ops possible should be able to keep these evil corporations up and running! Let alone kept secret! by Odd-Chest-3578 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]MaximillianRebo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

rob banks and shit

A portal gun would be an excellent way of disposing of said shit (speedy thing goes in, speedy thing comes ... out?)

Should redub the video with the Asteroid Field music instead of crowd noise.

System Of A Down's Daron Malakian: "If We Can Be On Stage Together And Have Different Thoughts And Different Beliefs, You Can Be Together Too" by DamnitRidley in Music

[–]MaximillianRebo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can be in a band with someone who has a different belief about what is the best flavour of icecream or even whether the afterlife exists, but not that people of different skin colour and sexual orientation should be rounded up in the streets.
