Can we start talking about the 3rd round of the Bricklink Designer program? I have some thoughts on pic related. I'm not sold on Space Troopers - I'm a huge Lego Space nerd and this just kinda misses the mark. It feels like it really wants to be Starcraft more than anything - they're Space *Troopers*. It's more militarized junk and it's just not thematically on point. Plus, for $200, it doesn't feel like the 2,600 parts are being utilized efficiently - it reeks of highly-greebled AFOL design meant to look pretty over everything else. If I wanted robots and missiles and laser guns and soldiers, I'd go for Star Wars or Galaxy Squad. If other AFOLs want to stretch the corpse of Classic Space over the bones of something else, fine, but that's not what I'm looking for.
I don't want to feel obligated to show support for something I don't want, just for some vain hope that it will eventually lead to something I do. So this is gonna be a pass for me.
