"You look like shit," Sandy laughs. No kidding. I spent two hours poking at my arm with disinfectant before I was doing more harm than good, then wrapped it in what was left of the tape from when I twisted my ankle last summer. Took a couple of pain pills, too. But I still feel like I got shot.

"Yeah, I was out late last night."

"You look like you were partying pretty hard! Did you meet a guy?"

"I met a few guys..."

"...but they were all losers."

"I met this guy last week named Chad-"

Sandy keeps talking, but all I can focus on is the guy on the sidewalk outside. He's one of the Squinter's goons, or at least he was until I killed his boss.

The Squinter said he was bringing the guns in for Bottled Blonde, the biggest gangster in the city - this might be my only chance to get to her!

I wish he had dropped me off a little closer to home.

Ha ha, whoops! Well, rest assured that you couldn't quite see who it was from that angle.

Yeah, she peed herself on the table remember.
That's gonna be one awkward cab ride home.

If she has some change in her leotard that is.

Oh boy, that was a lot of fun. Sorry for al the lag, I'm trying to keep a high level of detail in this game, but there were so many unexpected twists that it took a long time to build all the sets!

It was worth it though, the street scenes really brought the setting to life.

I like how this run walked the line between edgy comics/noir and silly comics hero story.

Quite a few Easter eggs in this episode. Some players probably recognize the evil villain torture rack as a modded version of the evil villain torture rack that Lord Business strapped Emmet to in the Lego Movie. I put the Melting Room set together a while ago, but I figured I could change it up a little and use it in a game somewhere down the line.

Bottled Blonde's head is a fairly rare piece - a transparent green minifig head with skull printing. It was only available in a single Belville set (pic related - they were a line of Barbie-style Lego sets that came out a few years ago). It cost me five dollars on Bricklink, but it was well worth it.

Chlorophilia's hair is another rare piece - it was only available in a couple of racing sets and cost five bucks as well. I've had my eye on both of them for at least a couple years, but once I had the idea for this game I finally bit the bullet and bought them both along with Red's masked head.

As a kid, my city dwellers always watched Channel 2 News because I had this 1x2 brick with the TV 2 sticker on it. I'm not sure where I got it, because Bricklink seems to only have it listed in blue. It might be a regional difference. What makes it better is that as a kid I had another City set that came with some numbered tiles, and two of them were "2"s. Thanks to these two factors, the official colors for the news station are mustard yellow and ketchup red.

How long have you been collecting lego pieces, OP? How much have you spent on them? It's the first I've ever seen someone who's actually serious about their lego collection instead of a leftover thing from childhood. How'd you get so interested in them, anyways?

Awwww shit, son! Lego Race! Fuck yeah, Sharkman.

Lego Quest, did you ever get that Lego set with the news van and the chopper? Blue and white color scheme.
My folks bought it for me like twenty years ago and I learned a few months back that it was a rare set.

I have a similar one in blue from an old medieval set.

I mean it's not the same.

>>38861978
not OP/LQ.
But you should head over to /toy/ some time if you're interested. There's a general up 24/7.

>How long have you been collecting lego pieces, OP?
I probably got my first Duplos when I was 1 or 2, but I got my first shoebox of Legos when I was 3, and my first actual storebought set when I was 4.
>How'd you get so interested in them, anyways?
Most of my collection is leftover from childhood. I've spent a few hundred bucks on pieces in the last decade, mostly for this game. As >>38862051 said, you should hang out in the Lego General on /toy/. I'm lurking in there all the time.

No, but I had this. It's where I got the numbered yellow tiles.

I love transparent pieces in general. My absolute favorite piece of all time is the trans-green cylinder that Chlorophilia has on her spray gun.

That's pretty sweet, son.
This set, which I mentioned, was one of my first along with an Explorians outpost, the Outback Airstrip set, and a whole bucket of Lego bricks which somehow included some 1980s spacemen.
One day, I'll rebuild all these old sets, even if I have to tear apart the MOCs I've built.

>>38862187
Why the trans-green cylinder in particular?
Magic potion from knights?
Or classic space magic?
>>
>>38862459
>Outback Airstrip
That thing's amazing. I really wish I had one. I think both of those were square lol in my dark age, so if I ever want them it'll have to be on cracklink.

>Why the trans-green cylinder in particular?
I guess it's because as a very little kid in the early 1980s, there weren't many trans pieces in my Lego collection. I remember specifically it was this set
http://brickset.com/sets/886-1/Space-Buggy
where I got my very first one.

For little kid me, it was just really enthralling to see this translucent Lego piece. Then I got a few more in other colors. The blue one was pretty special too; the red ones were more commonplace. Nowadays there are tons of trans pieces, but I was just at the right age when they started becoming common where it was a novelty to me.

You'll never get my little radio block, do you hear? NEVER!
>trans pieces were rare
They were also flimsy as hell. I've got one that cracked like a wineglass from just being in the same box as other pieces.

That didn't end as expected when I went to sleep half way. Thanks for running!
