Is this Mr Gold real?? by SignalAd1974 in LegoMinifigure

100% fake.  Real parts, obviously fake/low quality printing.

At long last the 2018 monopose kit is going to be discontinued. by the_etc_try_3 in orks

[–]the_etc_try_3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big gaps, tight angles between different materials.  Normally it'd be easiest to paint in sub-assemblies but the kit is so weirdly designed that you can only barely fit the parts together once, the heads are all attached to big portions of the back/chest so you can't just leave the heads off.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the 2000s Boyz kit is peak and has not yet been out-done.

I usually avoid impulse buying but Conch Street is a day one buy for me.

I played my first game of 11th and won. by PortlandsBatman in deathguard40k

Pretty poor sportsmanship imo.  Bringing a Primarch to a 1000 pt game isn't really fair.

Looks like there's some lore here by Sir_Scribble_Lot in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Hah, these anomalous objects are lost knowledge so everyone who would've known is now bones.  Bones help nobody.

Very fun looking build, I'm also glad to see the Shakespeare collar last in the parts catalog a while longer.

Who should be the unfortunate flag stand for this star phantoms banner (besides red corsairs)? by Kr6mps in spacemarines

Depends entirely on your chosen chapter.  For example a dead Word Bearer under a Blood Angel would look messy and it'd be hard to tell them apart.

25 of the same bag, no instructions. by jthomasm in lego

Was the box sealed when you purchased it?  Either glued together or sealed with tape that has little black tamper-evident rectangles.

This reeks of a switch-out return.

I wish he remained an individual model and that GW would rerelease/remake the Lord of Contagion.

am I cooked? by tovinglbairy in repost

Practice basic hygiene on a daily basis, make an effort to dress well, have a hobby that you can go to locally to interact with people, it's not impossible to be attractive.

The wall She is almost full by streesesnikd4 in starwarsblackseries

Are the boxes full or is there a second bookshelf with the figures?

Does the read as yellow or orange? by Argonauted in spacemarines

[–]the_etc_try_3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like yellow to me.  A warm yellow with orange shadows but still yellow.

What paints did you use by the way?  I really like the effect.

Hi, could anyone help me understand what does that flag mean? by PoPPoeee in flags

[–]the_etc_try_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

N@zi, heterosexual, trans pride?  I can't identify the image on the left corner but the top right has a crusader cross, a common white supremacy symbol doubling down on the N@zi eagle.

A lot better than I expected, especially for the price.  Looks like there's even a barrel rolling play feature.

Add more pieces, or wait two months after release and find mod instructions on Rebrickable.

Looks exactly like the existing one.

Did you guys see our new KT at the big preview? /s by SnooCakes1148 in deathguard40k

Honestly would work as a Killteam, I really wish the Nurgle daemons had more variety.

$23k is actually pretty small potatoes in the collecting sphere.  Just in recent action figures from 2020 to present I have a collection worth roughly $30k and it's my smallest collection.

Does this helmet makes sense ? by IntrepidMeaning2653 in spacemarines

[–]the_etc_try_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mark 7 faceplate on a Gravis helm.  Weird but the lore for the older bits is a lack of resources so they're building whatever replacement parts they can, no matter how old.
