The Bionicle sets which use the new rapid-fire blaster curiously had six more studs than the listed piece count on the box (even though the Lego shop website includes the actual piece count, with all twelve studs accounted for). So I wonder if this set is a similar case—both the box and shop page list 105 parts, but could that actually be 115? In any case, 20 studs seems to be a good count for a set like this, with twice as many studs as would be technically necessary to load every character's weapons.Andrew Barnickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11723179808721244651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-70425339807230089152015-01-08T02:29:15.622+00:002015-01-08T02:29:15.622+00:00I like the new blasters and LOVE the stud six-shoo...I like the new blasters and LOVE the stud six-shooter, but I have noticed a huge drop in number of parts going into a build for a set this price. Consider: Each figure plus loaded blaster is 7 parts, the stud shooter is 8 parts when loaded, and 10 spare 1x1 round plates as ammo means before you even build anything else there are 46 parts used up before anything is built to use them with, leaving only 59 parts for the walker. BUUUUT..... having gotten it for $0.30 US after 12 bucks of free bonus points at K-Mart showed up in my email Friday, and 2 days of I LUG NY events to attack all my LUGmates with it, it's the best set of all time (at that price point ;-) I think it works well, even if i'd gladly settle for 1 blaster and 5 studs total.... I had the same thought at Jeremy, I need to get this thing spinning around the center, not the other way around.... murphquakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15855269706267258693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-72000502388559786982015-01-07T20:15:46.081+00:002015-01-07T20:15:46.081+00:00They are Medium Dark Flesh (BL), a color used on m...They are Medium Dark Flesh (BL), a color used on minifigs such as the Gingerbread Man as well as Tonto.

20 spare studs?! I thought this...(PicnicBasketSam)<br /><br />20 spare studs?! I thought this set looked small...<br />I'm not really a fan of this set. The dark orange clones are OK, but I'm not sure where they've actually appeared. The walker itself has poseable legs at least (cough AT-DP cough) but the cockpit is a joke and the front is far too chunky. Seems like an excuse to use the new rapid-fire shooters, frankly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
