I find Lego pics totally delightful actually.

I miss having lego...

[TripOpt55]

Seems at least Twolf might enjoy this. Here is an old post I made on a Lego thread last year I visit elsewhere. I made up this little Robin Hood fort:


I was aiming for a Robin Hood Fort style thing. Made that tree tower first and just kind of went from there. Wanted to include the vines, some kind of fort and a prison.


This is a close look at the top of the tree tower thing.


Robin Hood climbing/swinging from a vine.


A look at the Fort side.


Here is the prison. I wanted to make it a pit-style prison. Ended up a little smaller than I intended. I don't know if these guys having a prison makes sense, but I wanted to make one so whatever!


I put some pillars on the inside so it loooked a bit better. I also chained a guy up and threw a skeleton in there because prisons in those times always seem to just have an old skeleton in them!


Had a lot of dead space with the base plates I used, so decided to make a campfire, a bench and a table. Robin is warming his hands on the fire while the other two have a drink.

I have this big in-process mod of the new Castle set. I'm making it way bigger adding stables, an armory, king's quarters and main hall. If I ever finish it I will post some pictures.

Me and some friends in front of a big-ass buddha.

[TripOpt55]

That's a super cool picture!

[chocobot]

Wow. That is a really big Buddha.

[Krubixcube]

It was a very cool place but also stupidly hot. I wore black strategically that day.

[pspiddy]

That Buddha pic is awesome. Beautiful.

I can start posting Lego deals in the heads up thread. I see them pop up often on deals sites.

[TripOpt55]

I wouldn't turn down LEGO deals being posted in the deals threads. I think I keep up with most of them though. Target has some on clearance and I just got Vermin Vaporizer which is a great set. Ended up being a good bit under 10 cents per piece which is the sign of a good deal for LEGO I think. Will post some pics when I get a chance.

[Rainjar]

That is a damn cool picture TWolf.

[Krubixcube]

Kyoto/Hyogo pictures. There's many more but here's a few:









monkey hilariously wanted more peanuts

[pspiddy]

I like how the monkey looks to be thinking, "Keep smiling and mocking me with those peanuts, asshole...just a LITTLE bit closer"

[Krubixcube]

They'd just hang out like that anyway, it was funny though they don't snatch anything out of your hand, they were very very gentle. Fed a little baby one as well. That place was very cool. No enclosure, the monkeys just naturally stayed at the top of this mountain so you'd hike up and monkeys would just begin appearing and then you'd just walk among them. Wonderful view of the city from there was well.

[TripOpt55]

Great pics Twolf. Welcome back!

Charlton Heston thought the same thing...

[Krubixcube]

YOU BLEW IT UP!!! DAMN YOU!!!

[BretBaber]

monkeys are awesome. Cool pics.

[Krubixcube]

Yeah there's MANY more, but I didn't want to overload the site. Just find me on facebook if you want to see the rest =)

[TripOpt55]

I saw this cat yesterday that looked like it had a mustache. Had to share.

[avidacridjam]

Haven't posted on this thread in a while so I figured a couple of shots of my bookshelves would suffice.

[pspiddy]

@avid- I just played 'have it, have it, read it, tried to read it, have it, what is that' with your collection. Nice one

Edit* Is that a softshell guitar case in the upper left of the first pic?

[avidacridjam]

Those pictures didn't turn out as well as I had hoped so I'm surprised you could make out some titles.

That is a softshell guitar case and my electric Epiphone Jr. bass is inside it.

Hello former 1uppers!
My name's Lenny and I've been creeping around for a while and watching Trip's group(s) from a distance. Been fairly busy for the past several years, but as things begin to simmer down I'm going to attempt to get back into 'the game'.



My PS3 broke on me almost a year ago (YLOD) and after repairing it several times over, it finally kicked the bucket. I just recently bought a replacement Crystal White PS3 with the PS+ Bundle and hope to build a brand new gaming PC in a matter of the coming weeks. I already bought the humble bundle, recently, and hope those games will be amongst one of the first ones I break in on my new gaming desktop. So, in other news... Am I the token black guy here or something? Hahaha.

Anyway, we should get an Uncharted 3 game night set up sometime so that I can de-rustify my gaming fingers. My summer break has finally started, so I'll be doing some more gaming as I've got 9 games that have yet to be unwrapped and have not yet met my Playstation's laser eye. Hope to catch you guys around.

Deuces.

[avidacridjam]

Welcome, sir!

[TripOpt55]

LENNY! Yes welcome.

[lenny.b]

Thanks! It feels good to be back on a forum.

[pspiddy]

Welcome, Lenny! Or Token if you prefer >.<; I'll add you to PSN. I suck at U3 (Trip can vouch) but I'm down for some mp action.

@avid- I went off of the familiar spines. I think you and me shopped the same stores or at least have the same print runs on a good amount of books.

[Motinator]

Hey! Welcome back!

And here's the bookshelf pics

[lenny.b]

Hey PSP, thanks for the add on the PSN, and it's been a while, Mot! No worries about not being good at U3 as long as we all have a good time. Hmmm... Time to test the waters on who would all be interested in having a U3 game night.

[avidacridjam]

Nice pics, Mot! That three-volume set of LOTR looks better than my one-volume. The shelf looked in good condition, too, unlike my p.o.s. Walmart-quality shelves.
