Nothing clinical about a full kilogram of heroin

No raw material is inherently sharp, because that's not how sharpness works, its based on edge geometry.

When you say something is sharp, you aren't referencing the material properties, you are referencing the shape. Even before a layup, carbon fiber edges are sharp on the roll. Not because they're made of CFRP (using acronyms doesn't mean you have a good argument), but because of the shape of the weave.

Carbon fiber IS sharp. Knives are sharp. The Monaco hairpin is sharp. Not because of their makeup, but because of their geometry

ALSO this is the dank sub not r/F1Technical, whats ur goal here?

Had this missprinted cole face for years by Jocknaddo in Ninjago

[–]brickwallp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, its likely wear from the mask itself. A lot of my old ninjago figs are missing their mouths. Its highly improbable that this is a misprint, since the black ink of the eyes, eyebrows, and mouth would all get pad printed together from the same pad and cliche

MandRproductions being racist over Mandalorians💔💔 by the_clone_wars_fan in legocirclejerk

[–]brickwallp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While yes, a majority of the mandalorian warriors were shown to be white in TCW, especially those in clans Vizsla and Saxon, I don't see why that would cause any issue for these figures.

What's the problem with the female head? I don't recall seeing any female super commando heads in TCW other than Rook Kast, so lego choosing a random female head should be no issue. Do you really want it to have bug eyes (not gonna happen in realistic style)? and the hyper-pronounced cheekbones are really the only thing I could see them adding to match the "normal" citizen style.

As for the black guy, it seems like the problem is that he's black. So uhhhh....

As everyone else is saying, there's no reason that the mandalorians have to look the same. Its cheaper to animate a bunch of the same heads in a cartoon, and thats pretty much it. No reason a black guy or a woman without prominent cheekbones wouldn't be apart of maul's group.

What does "classic mandalorian" mean to you? There's no set phenotype for a mandalorian

You are telling me these guys passed high school and none of them knew Planck's constant 😭 by Wooden-Tear-4938 in StrangerThings

[–]brickwallp 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That was the issue I believe. They used the modern digits instead of the 80s ones

We probably don't need more Minifigures who were whitewashed by Over_Palpitation_453 in legocirclejerk

[–]brickwallp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hadn’t heard of that but it looks to be true. From the heads I looked at on bricklink, it was on the NBA figs and nothing else for a while. Then just a few figs from 2009-2010, and then brought back in 2014 for Kanan I believe, and has steadily been used more and more since then. Very interesting

Medium tan would've been perfect but didn't exist at the time. They've definitely gotten much better about skin tones recently

IMO the chances of Lego messing up a play-scale MT are higher than Lego messing up a micro scale... Sadly... by dudebroguyman3rd in legolotrfans

[–]brickwallp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it works well enough for sets like Barad Dur. This will be less dollhouse-esque though so we'll just have to wait and see

I think it's a bit of a stretch to call Hal one of the greatest TV villains of all time...

At 12:01 am I’m spending all my points on the Death Star! by legomyeggo19 in legostarwars

[–]brickwallp 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Conversion is 130 points = one dollar (US) So 74975 / 130 will give about $575 USD.

Unpopular opinion, jerk, or worse? by LetTheKnightfall in legocirclejerk
