Thanks. In my profession (evil genius), my thoughts tend to automatically turn to military applications whenever a new technology is announced. Only the other day I saw that we had installed some new coffee machines here in the bunker and I ordered one to be stripped down to see if we could divert streams of boiling…

This would make an awesome interplanetary weapon. We could fire warp-speed "bullets" at Mars and wipe the smiles off of those scaly green bastards' faces forever.

That's a step too far for me. I use Technic to brace internal components on spaceships, but that's about it. I don't do the gears and steering and stuff like that...

You said it.

Actually...that isn't even LEGO in the picture. No writing on the studs and the gaps are too big between the bricks for this to be the real deal.

This article is total heresy. Move beyond LEGO? Are you insane?

He also viewed the RTD/Tennant era as "his" and wouldn't be averse to moving on for that reason.

Why is it a half-completed Death Star? Was Vader that desperate to get his hands on some Littlest Pet Shop figures?

It's Mondas. 26 years late, but definitely Mondas.

Are you spying on me?

I'm a bow tie wearer! OK, so it's mainly because I'm also a Doctor Who fan, but people at work love my bow tie collection.

I'm so excited! This is the best news so far this year. That Fury class Interceptor is going to get a LOT of swooshing.

Me too. Who is this guy exactly?

This was an awesome piece. And it raises an interesting question...if we somehow managed to detect a properly Earth-type planet and decided to send a ship to colonise it, would it still be there when we arrived? Imagine all the universal factors we would have to take into account - are any local stars about to blow,…

Holding out for Buckaroo.

Looks like an early prototype of Vader's meditation pod to me.

Would you like to know more?

It's the bugs! We need to invade Klendathu - NOW.

It's a clone brand - the Character Building toys are made by Cobi who also have a line in military building toys. Not proper LEGO I'm afraid.

No, the US made an American version of The Office. The British one was the original.
