Article -- for story facts, Not that it matters here, Lego bit 3/4 way down. I want a 100 comments when I wake up and read them to decide if I believe this to be true or false. Debate

This is where you talk about your Zombie happenings in Lego! A Zombie Horde has recently invaded my Lego City, so the Miliitary had to come in, and save the Mayor and Chief of Police. What about you? Also pictures are enjoyed, and suggestions are fine, and questions and requests are good too! Attached below is a picture of the rather small Zombie Horde attacking the Military.

From darkhorizons.com Just moments ago, filmmaker Zack Snyder and veteran actor Harry Lennox took to the stage at Warners' Saturday Comic Con presentation to confirm the news from a few hours ago that the "Man of Steel" sequel will feature Batman. Lennox read out the quote: "I want you to remember Clark, in all the years to come. In all your private moments. In all the years to come, my hand at your throat. I want you to remember, the one man who beat you" Immediately after, up came a silver "Man of Steel" logo with a Batman logo behind it. NO mention was made at the panel regarding the OTHER rumor that emerged this morning - that we'd get a "The Flash" film i…

Yes, I know it is one of the knockoff brands but news is news. Besides, a good collector/investor should know what the competition is releasing. Anyway, here are various images of the sets out for release this year.

So I know alot of people, myself included were thinking this year was going to be a little lackluster from a WOW standpoint. I have to say that I think I was wrong. We arent even halfway through the year yet and I must say I am very impressed. I know some of yall are hard to please and would argue otherwise. Here is your chance to chime in with your thoughts good or bad so far for the 2013 sets.

Ok, so I bought a Golden Dragon from Walmarts site to store along with a bunch of other sets back in January. Problem is the GD came in a freaking bubble mailer while everything else was shipped in boxes. Well guess what the GD box was damaged... not insignificantly either. I meant to return it, but got lazy and forgot. So my question is would it be unethical to buy a new one mint from Walmart and return the one they carelessly shipped with that receipt? Im torn.

This and Activisions Stampede were my 2 favorite games. 3 Hours on this game I think the person playing would Crack.

Our apartment is home to tons of lego sets on display and now two kittens. our old cat had no intrestet in diplayed sets but young curiious kittens is another matter all together. so far the only steps we've taken is to remove all minifigs and light post from the modular block. it's only been 3 days and so far no problems. they have tried climbing the eiffel tower ( got up to the 2nd tier) and have waked all over the falcon and tower bridge, with no pieces falling off. wondering what steps members have taken to pet proof their displays?the sets are our personal collection and 99% sure they will never be resold

Just imagine all the custom weapons/accessories that could be made for all of these. My favorite out of all of these is the Bear suit guy, I was thinking like a Bomber type head piece just in bear shape, wouldn't that be AWESOME!!! I also think that the Hunter could be a good one. Just a list off the top of our heads...

I'm putting my life in great peril by posting this, but the truth must be exposed. I came home early from work today and witnessed this dark event. I quickly grabbed my camera and snapped these shots. I think they were so caught up in their blood lust they didn't notice me and...wait...I think I heard something....AAaaaggghhh....they're on me! Tiny axes and claw hands ripping my flesh.....just...enough...strength...to click...post...

Let's hear your plans for Independence Day! We go small, joining some friends at another friend's house for a pool party, bbq, and fireworks until we get busted It'll be my boys' first time with Black Cats and Bottle Rockets, and I'm super excited and nervous lol. Anyone else doing the same? Somebody going on an actual vacation? I hope you guys all have fun and stay safe.

It's never too early to start getting ready for a convention, right?! CVII was just announced to be taking place in Anaheim, CA April 16-19, 2015. LEGO generally goes to this so let the whining begin over the various exclusives they will have that won't be readily available to everyone else in the world. But seriously, Star Wars Celebrations are pretty cool and filled with exclusive items just like various Comic Cons. http://www.theforce.net/story/front/Star_Wars_Celebration_VII_Announced_At_CEII_Closing_Ceremonies_153455.asp

Check this out: http://geekologie.com/2013/05/insane-insane-insane-lord-of-the-rings-b.php LOL at the minifigs. That's like $10k of minifigs alone, isn't it? I love MOC's like this.

If you were giving an AFOL a lego gift based solely on which dragon was the coolest, what set would you give? Friend loves dragons, new AFOL. I have Lonely mountain & Ender's game sets I can give them, but I do not build these kinds of sets and have no value judgement to rely upon here. Thx for ur help.

Not Lego related but I was wondering if anyone has played the new SimCity yet? I have been waiting forever for it to come out and now that it has I just haven't had time to get it yet (no free time since I found BP).

Anyone? I have thought about picking it up, but didn't know what people thought about it. Was kind of wondering what story line it would follow.

Anybody here also a fan of that tv show? Watched it last night...had couple guys with huge inventory of comics and transformers toys that were just 'addicted' or very passionate about their collection. Both over valued their collection and didn't want to sell anything. Would be cool to see a Lego collector on this show...

I was thinking about this and I would love to see Star Trek UCS starships. The potential for many different ship sets would be numerous. What do you think?

"One way out." Each time I think "This episode is the best Star Wars I've seen," it always keeps escalating somehow. This show is a GOOD show without magic space wizards or laser swords! I am very much surprised and on the edge of my seat often with the acting, the set pieces, and the storytelling. The writing is so much more in depth and complex for something I would've never expected from Disney Star Wars. Also casting Stellan Skarsgård is PHENOMENAL! Chef's kiss!

Sounds like another good year for Lego ... http://cphpost.dk/news/business/lego-employees-xmas-gift-is-a-months-salary.html
