So I decided, while I'm waiting to move forward with the slimy slug project, to give a go at some building with real bricks. Here is what I came up with. It is a transported for all the Kabaya promo sets to explore and do recon drilling in new caverns. What do you think?

[11:50:25 PM] Joe: Now i have a better idea what to except when going to Australia [11:50:47 PM] McJobless: It'll go like this when you get to Australia. [11:51:05 PM] McJobless: Firstly, you'll walk off the plane and wonder if you somehow made it to Asia instead of Australia. [11:53:02 PM] McJobless: You'll walk through security which are quite frisk-happy and love to ask your random, annoying and ridiculous questions, and if you so much as laugh at their accent, be prepared for a smack-down from the army-sized security force nearby. [11:53:41 PM] McJobless: You'll then walk into the food court and wonder why you're back in America, before realising that the food portions are tiny and the prices are over-inflated. [11:54:22 PM] McJobless: You'll then walk out to the Taxi bay and attempt to figure out why every single driver looks exactly the same, and why the prices for a short taxi trip are equal to launching a space shuttle to the moon. [11:54:46 PM] McJobless: Once you get to the CBD, you'll be confused at why you've suddenly arrived in London. [11:55:41 PM] McJobless: You'll walk around and notice that the hobos are calling you cunts, the teenagers are all cosplayers with nothing better to do than sit outside a church and scare the living ghosts out of the priests, and that Woolworthes sell a great chicken. [11:55:56 PM] McJobless: So, you'll then probably want to know what to do for entertainment, right? [11:55:59 PM] McJobless: Well, too bad. [11:56:34 PM] McJobless: You'll go ask your way to IMAX, and find that every single person you talk to has no idea what an "IMAX" is and suggests that you should "f**** off, c***." [11:56:57 PM] McJobless: You'll then figure out its in Darling Harbour, and make the spectacularly stupid desicion to get a bus there. [11:57:17 PM] McJobless: You'll get on the bus and the bus driver will immediately kick you off for having money. [11:57:48 PM] McJobless: So, you eventually somehow know to go to a newsagency and buy a prepaid ticket. But then you find out they've closed for the day because "Couldn't be arsed". [11:57:55 PM] McJobless: So you suddenly realise 7/11 sells tickets. [11:58:08 PM] McJobless: But then they tell you they only sell weekly tickets at extortionate amounts. [11:59:04 PM] McJobless: So you buy the ticket, get on the bus, fumble with the ticket at the driver gets increasingly more annoyed, even though he's the one causing the problems, and then proceed to stand-up on the bus, because every other seat is taken by familys, druggos and morons. [11:59:21 PM] McJobless: Then you get to Darling Harbour and you'll accidentally walk into the Chinese Gardens. [12:00:08 AM] McJobless: You run around for 6 hours not knowing why you're stuck in France, before finally finding the exit and walking through a gaint fountain of birds that are practically painting the roads with bird-s***. [12:00:49 AM] McJobless: Then you see the IMAX theatre near the ACTUAL harbour, because you find out that buses are afraid of water and they decided to put the bus-route 1KM away from the actual Harbour itself. [12:01:14 AM] McJobless: So you walk under the Harbour Bridge, pissing your pants as you hear the creaks and groans of the Bridge which sounds like it's about to collapse at any minute. [12:01:39 AM] McJobless: Once you've reached the Harbour, you're then trampled by the thousands of people flocking to laugh at the street performers. [12:02:15 AM] McJobless: You'll see some aboriginals blowing their pipes, some guy riding a s***ty bike and some chick singing a song. [12:02:58 AM] McJobless: Once you get up and carefully move past all the people telling you "Get out of my f****ing way or I'll deck ya", you'll then find out that the enterance to the IMAX theatre is next to this crappy cafe that sells nothing from this century. [12:03:24 AM] McJobless: You're puzzled, so you walk up the 10 billion stairs it takes to get to the actual reception of the theatre, before making a shocking realisation. [12:03:35 AM] McJobless: That the movies IMAX is presenting are also from a century ago. [12:04:08 AM] McJobless: So, you're tired and you're bored, and you shell out your arm and leg to buy a ticket, and after about 5 hours of waiting by the frozen ice-cream stand, you finally get to go in. [12:04:25 AM] McJobless: You find yourself crampped between a fat guy and 19 6-year olds. [12:04:53 AM] McJobless: You then have a miserable experience because you realise that the 3D glasses they give you are extremely tiny and can't fit around your head. [12:05:16 AM] McJobless: You eventually leave at about 10PM, staggering around, jet-lagged, hungry, thirst, tired and not in a good mood. [12:05:29 AM] McJobless: You then realise you've no idea how to get to your accomidation. [12:05:54 AM] McJobless: You ask around and they all tell you "Keep walking, drugged c***" [12:06:01 AM] McJobless: So, you decide the train is a good idea. [12:06:05 AM] McJobless: This is not a good idea. [12:06:54 AM] McJobless: You get on the train at 11PM at night, which also happens to be the time when every single moron teenager with half-a-brain-cell who is doped to high-heaven is also taking the trains to Kings Cross, aka "The Murderbowl" [12:07:43 AM] McJobless: So, you get beat up on the train for not lickiing the shoes of every single person in the carriage, but eventually you arrive at Central, and you walk out. [12:08:02 AM] McJobless: Then you panic, because Central station is like Hedge Mazes on hardcore. [12:08:22 AM] McJobless: Finally, at 2PM, you find out that if you keep going right, you eventually get to an exit. [12:09:00 AM] McJobless: You walk out and promptly get punched in a gut by a hobo, before officers walk by, look at you and then continue onwards, because you're a tourist and nobody likes tourists. [12:09:31 AM] McJobless: So, you crawl your way to some s***ty hotel in Central, which is filled with ganstas and prostitutes, and realise reception has chucked a sick day. [12:09:44 AM] McJobless: So you then just crash in the lobby and hope that tomorrow will be a lot better. [12:09:49 AM] McJobless: Spoiler Alert: It won't. [12:09:51 AM] McJobless: The End.

Hey all. This is the beginning of my latest LEGO project, A motorised Supermarine Spitfire. I'm going to try and pack as many functions into it as possible such as the rudder, elevator and ailerons all controlled from the cockpit, motorised engine (Also controlled from the cockpit) and working landing gear (Hopefully ). Here's my progress so far: As you can see I've done the very front section which also includes the engine. I still need to figure out how to attach the wings as well as how to do the landing gear. If anyone as any suggestions I'm all ears. I'll leave you with a few more pictures:

HELL NO, HELL NO.

EB is made up of adult collectors that would buy anything LEGO throws up.

[21:17:15] jamesster: oh wow I just realized that I'll be a legal adult this year this scares me [21:17:25] McJobless: *clap* [21:17:42] jamesster: THIS HAS BEEN LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS WITH JAMESSTER [21:18:01] Ronald Thomas Mullins III (Tauka Usanake): I'm 21 and still don't feel like an adult [21:18:03] jamesster: TUNE IN NEXT WEEK TO HEAR ABOUT THE ITCH ON MY BACK [21:18:27] * [sGT] Alcom Isst has changed the chat topic to "Rock Raiders United room. THE ITCH ON MY BACK" [21:19:13] Stan McStudz: hoo boy. [21:19:55] [sGT] Alcom Isst: Why do people talk about a back itch they can't reach? [21:20:00] [sGT] Alcom Isst: What nonsense is that? [21:20:36] jamesster: I can wrap my arms around my torso and touch my bellybutton [21:20:41] jamesster: so I've never had that problem [21:21:23] jamesster: THIS HAS BEEN ANOTHER EPISODE OF LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS WITH JAMESSTER, TUNE IN screw it

fixed weird though. it doesn't let me upload it to the bucket.

Oh sorry, I forgot to say. The supposed 'edge of the world' is actually a barrier I created to keep out the insane Rock Raiders that continuously try to enter the RRU Minecraft server. When redstone expands like that, it's their attempt at creating a warp rift to invade through. So, yeah, destroy it and get outta there.

After finding the edge of the map, Fush tried to shoot fireballs past the barrier, along with Ace and I. I then had the idea to use a rapid redstone signal to shoot the fireballs, but upon placing the redstone, well, take a look.

Must be on a different site). That is kinda-like their slogan for this set. They are all 3D renders too. They rarely do 3D renders for set announcements, with the exception of the LEGO board games, Minifigure series, and I think one more I can't name... Writers are calling this "the best LEGO set ever made". I think I speak for both myself and everyone here in response to that and this announcement:

I don't understand why they would lock a topic that is always useful. Instructions on cleaning LEGO bricks should be stickied.

[6:14:06 PM] McJobless: I remember getting the wrong Bacon & Egg McMuffin the first time because instead of the normal bread, they used those biscuits. [6:14:08 PM] (Alexis) Anisoptera: I guess [6:14:08 PM] McJobless: I was livid. [6:14:09 PM] (Alexis) Anisoptera: Their [6:14:12 PM] (Alexis) Anisoptera: Total Biscuits weren't enough Meanwhile on the LEGO Universe Skype Chat: [11:27:28 PM] jamesster: well at least LEGO doesn't occasionally get people running around claiming that they're a minifigure trapped in a human's body [11:28:26 PM] MisterGryphon: Hey, I'm offended by that. I'm a minikin. Sometimes my skin seems to have a yellow hue to it that I connect with very deeply, sometimes it even gets hard and my joints get loose if I move too much. As a good Buddhist, what should I do? I'm so lost...
