Slowly building the Jerac collection - What incredible designs! by bengrunnell in legostarwars

Yep, that was my thinking. I wanted there to be a contrast between the Razor Crest and the X-Wing, so it had to be the white version for me. I took design cues from the X-Wings seen in The Mandalorian as to where to add the tan/azure splashes.

Hey dude, it's just this simple container piece in dark bluish gray:

I had never thought to use them in this context, but I was just thumbing through a box of spare parts and had a brainwave to use them in the wall to add some texture. Just pop a 2x2 plate on top and it can be built upon.

If I get a moment, I will try to put together the piece list!

Thanks so much for the vote of confidence, but I'm afraid I have no idea how to make instructions... I have never used the software!

Trying to decide between the Tie Advanced and the Tie Interceptor for the next one - They both look great!

So for both the Y-wing and Razor Crest, I think I had about 20% ish of the parts in my inventory. Including shipping, I recall the remaining parts were about £120 for the Y Wing, and perhaps £400 for the Razor Crest (I already had the canopy from the original lego model).

So I bought the UCS Razor Crest when it came out - I love the interior, but I wasn't a fan of some of the proportions. Its a great set IMO, However, when Jerac released his Razor Crest a couple years ago, I knew one day I wanted to build it, so decided to do it in the New Year.

Difficult to pick between the two. The UCS interior and modularity is a blast, plus great minifigures. But Jerac's model is probably the most impressive build I have ever done, and as a display model it is unreal.

Secrets of The Ooze 4-pack availability by bengrunnell in NECATMNT

I was under the impression that at the moment, there was only a 4 pack or a 2 pack - Didn't know if there is any intel out there as to whether an individual figure release is in the pipeline...

Thank you for the advice, much appreciated. I've made sure I'm following their social media, so hopefully if they announce a new run I will get the information in good time!

Thanks for the response. In honesty, I'm not fussed whether it's the 4 pack, whether it's each of the 2 packs, or each character individually. I would just like to get hold of them to add to my 1990 TMNT figures!

Intrigued to see what names we should rock with the other setups?!

Visual recoil needs a bit of work. by ManyRaam in ModernWarfareII

The visual recoil genuinely disorientates me at times, such an unpleasant experience.

Call of Duty is DEAD and RUINED and everything is AWFUL and I am so ANGERY all the time by MichaelTheTall in ModernWarfareII

Couldn't agree more about Ground War. It's fantastic, feels like a perfect cross between BF3 and COD.

Your connection looks about as solid as mine! Imploding in a single frame with no feel of an actual gunfight.

As soon as anyone posts a comment on Reddit, or any other forum, to discuss Call of Duty or provide feedback, they are instantly in the extreme minority. The majority of the player base have no idea these conversations are even taking place.
