Frustration and annoyance.
Dec. 19th, 2009 04:32 pmNobody seems to have ever made a Lego version of Tiamat and posted it online. This would be good for me: A niche unfulfilled! A bold opportunity to shower the world with genius! Groupies! Alas, though, Lego does not appear to ever have made the Bionicle style dragon head in either black or white plastic. Red, blue, and green, yes, but that's only 3 out of 5 heads. So I guess I'll have to make my own heads, knowing bitterly that Lego could have made my job easier, but chose not too. Sniff. They only hit me 'cuz they love me.
On the other hand, nobody seems to have posted any Silver Dragons yet either. The only question is if Lego has made enough _other_ pieces in the "Pearl light Grey" color to so it. Let's check...
(Five minutes later) Looks like they have most of them, except for the tail and wing pieces. Compromises may have to be made.
Edit: And some of the other pieces I'd need are available in "Metallic silver", which is a relatively close match (And not to be confused with "Chrome Silver", which isn't. "Flat Silver" is also reasonably good. The only problem is the pieces I still can't find are plain bricks and plate. Maybe the design can do without. Hmmm...
