  1. On the subject of drug names, here in Australia crystal meth is known as ice. “How much ice do we need for the party?” Hilarious, I know.

  2. I know you were answering a question about Legos, but the garbage truck that turns into murder world set clearly needs to be a MicroMachine.

  3. 3rd Thunderbird:
    Always thought that was so weird and dumb.
    Whyyyy would he name a THIRD character Thunderbird???

  4. No Lego Octopusheim? But I absolutely am here for an Asteroid M with Lego Acolytes, Lego Exodus and of course Lego Fabian Cortez.

    1. Came here to say “Jay, I see your LEGO Asteroid M & raise you a LEGO Octopusheim!” Glad others remember Magneto’s greatest base!

  5. HOLD IT!
    Wolverine’s noir monologue is from Calvin and Hobbes! It’s a quote from one of Calvin’s imaginary adventures as the PI “Tracer Bullet”.

  6. LEGO Shinobi Shaw’s Absolutely Totally Accurate Room for “The Sex”.

    Also, LEGO ZZ-105 needs a LEGO Actual Hawk Warren Worthington III to perch & talk hawks.
