Presenting the Five-Fingers of Death, otherwise known as Newbrickorder.com, the
crazy-sexy-cool new website your mother warned you about. Since you cant very
well launch a new site without new mocs, we humbly offer this smorgasbord to
you, the mainline hot-weather crowd.
The calloused thumb, Dan (Frenchy) Rubin and his Espoir de Lyons
Index finger Nick (The Enforcer) Kappatos, and his Dangermouse
Middle finger, who else? and the Nova Taurus
Ring finger, Fradel (F-Dog) Gonzales and his NWBC award winning Mecha Service
Depot - Pleides Brigade
And our beloved Pinky, Jeremiah (J-House) VanderMark and his Thomas Bot goes
buck-wild
Five humble fingers...coming together for the purpose of fisting the Lego
community with fancy mocs and questionable rhetoric.
As always, kudos, smack and non sequiturs are encouraged.
Many thanks to the great Kyle (dont call me Johannes) Keppler for his amazing
php coding of the site, and Paul Hartzog (inventor of the Hartzog Cannon) for
his wonderful Argiope Web Engine
Also thanks to the rogues gallery otherwise known as
http://www.neutronbot.com/ for allowing us to gravy-train their format with
some cosmetic changes.
As always, kudos, smack, ranting and non sequiturs are encouraged

Being a good clicker, I clicked... Model not found! A stealth model, that
rocks! You are teh kewl man, no one else can do all grey models the way you
do...
So I spelunked around to main for you and got
MOC Quick View: (see links below hexagons for more)
What hexagons? Did I miss something or was your cribbing from Neutronbot
somewhat not complete? Or are they dark grey hexagons on dark grey background?
(I take it thats OLD dark grey, right?) Of course, thats gotta be what it is!

Good thing youre such a clever fellow. At least I only screwed up my own link.
Here is the correct link for anyone whos interested.

Completeness is for losers and Canadians. Dont trouble me with your
pseudo-scientific double talk! Quiet you!
No other comments ++Lar? All those fancy mocs and the best you can come up with
is one messed up link out of 5 and something about hexagons...hexagons? Elevate
your smack my friend. What about Fradels award winning diorama? What about
lil Nickys Dangermouse? What about Jeremiahs perversion of that friendly
tank train? What about Rubins French starship? If that isnt deserving of
some smack, I dont know what is.
On the other hand, thanks for the review Lar.

This restaurant is the best thing to come along since badly-peeled potatoes hit
the streets of Europe back in the early 18th century. That Nova spud thing or
whatever youre calling it is mighty tasty. The other deep-fried offerings are
swell as well. Ill be stopping by more next week to enjoy the ambience and
sample the rest of the menu.

Was it really necessary to ask twice?
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I would say I was happy to see this announcement. But really, Im just thinking
about that cyst on my back. Oh sheesh!
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hey Keith (and all the other fingers),
Awesome new site! I actually found this yesterday after your
gallery hit Brickshelf.
Is this the face of the future--small group sites like yours and Neutronbot?
On the NovaTaurus - Very well done all around. I really like small vehicles you
have offloading in this
picture a lot. The landscaping is really well done as well. The underground
bunker makes me think of Lost, though the guy living down there seems way too
happy.

I really like this ship. The turrets look great, and I just love the sculpted
reliefs on the sides. Id like to see interior shots, if there are any. Overall,
Well done Dan!

Looks nimble. The shot of it in the palm really gives a good sense of its
compactness. Very nice.
|
Middle finger, who else? and the Nova Taurus
|
Hmmm...
The ship as whole... Totally cool, as usual.
The excavation filled with zombie minifigs about to be roasted... Why didnt I
see it coming? Perhaps I underestimate you Keith.
:-p
Heh, also, I have to say that landscape is very well done.

A bit too multicoloured, but otherwise great. My favourite mecha is the green
radome carrying one, closely followed by the two grey ones. The shots of the
missile tubes being reloaded is a nice touch. Hope to see more from you Fradel.

Looking as good as ever Keith! I just lifted my nostrils from the LCD. One long
sniff did the trick!
Letting the slideshow feature of your new website for pyros (and apparently
people with finger fetishes) take over, I was taken on an epic journey of
megalomaniac proportions; which of course was the last flight of the Nova
Taurus. All action, all the time... you once again smack the plastic down like
vanilla ice at a grade 8 spelling bee in upper east side Manhattan. Kudos to
you. Kudos indeed.
As I got wind of your latest posting, I was in the middle of deciphering some
horrible C# code hooked into what can only be called an abomination of a
database utilizing the fanboy choice of MS Access. So, in the absence of a
written story line for your moc, I easily imagined that the Nova Taurus was
infiltrating the Microsoft Redmond Campus in Seattle, and that the zombies were
brainwashed MS visual studio developers which needed burning and burying.
Unfortunately, their human resources department probably relies on the dot net
architecture and therefore will not be able to contact their loved ones to let
them know that the Reich has disposed of them. Oh well...
One has to question your name choice of Nova Taurus. Any good Canadian can
only assume that Taurus comes from the Ford Taurus station wagon of 1989. Your
ship strangely resembles the purpose of said vehicle, of which I took a chainsaw
and hacked off the roof to carry my Honda 4-wheeler ATV from civilization to the
British Columbia back-country. And it was gray by the way ;-) but I digress...
I simply loved the pit. Looked good, mixing in old/new brown to give the
appearance of a freshly dug mass grave. The mass exodus, complete with c-bill
bribery was bling bling. One part I did not understand however was the whole
lets look behind the gate scene... what was going on there? I was expecting a
frame showing a holy hand-grenade ready to explode... Please enlighten... you
madman.
Thanks for posting the sexy Nova Taurus. Shes hot, wet and got it going like a
turbo vette.
Cheers!

The ship was orignially christened The Bull Dyke (a name near and dear to the
blackhearted Soren Roberts). Obviously not very politically correct, it was
named for the odd, ugly, bull-like appearance that the ship took on early in the
design process. The forward horns were much longer and angled upward. Mess
with the bull, you get the horns kind of thing. I settled for a much tamer
Nova Taurus. Although I like your story better. I should just farm out my
caption work to you.

There was a short, not very involved plot to the pictures, but it seemed flat.
My buddy Ryan Rubino (sigfig with the fish shirt), recently sold me his lego and
re-entered a dark age. This project kind of paid homage (you like that word,
dont you boy?) to Ryan and his fallen city-state. I left him in the bunker,
awaiting the cleansing fires of reason to sweep away the mental zombie-virus
that caused him to bail on the hobby. So his city-state is over-run by zombos,
and its the Reich to the rescue..oh..but as you so aptly pointed out, babes
only! Even Johnny-C-note cant make it past the guards. Then when the ship is
bloated with fertile women, it takes off and the rest of the refugees are dealt
with...buldozer style. It ends with a squad of cast-offs and borderline cases
venturing towards the zombie-infested metropolis for further wacky adventures in
future mocs, with sig-fig Rubino as their guide. Your basic boilerplate.
Sadly, some of the expanatory pics bridging the gate scene and the bunker scene
didnt turn out. I may still get around to some captions describing this
timeless storyline.

Youre welcome, Paul! Come back anytime, and bring your monkey too!
Right back atcha (shoots finger-pistols at the screen)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ok Paul, I had some time to think about it, and think about all those
threatening emails you keep sending me. I needed some kind of farewell post to
MOCPages anyway, much like your mom, shes served me well over the years by
providing a refuge for smackaholics. So the smack is back, but like McRib, only
for a limited time.
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/11668
Next time the smack will only be available onNewbrickorder.com for you
afficianados of my questionable brand of low-brow humor. Also, I must include
the usual dislaimer, if you are easily offended or young and impressionable,
dont click the link. Commentary-free pics are available on brickshelf and
Newbrickorder.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I must say - this small gathering is rather refreshing. I, for one, was
wondering when a splinter group such as this one would arise... The only
problem I have with the whole thing, is that the last time I checked there was
no fiery rhetoric in your new MOC Mr. Goldman... Where lies the vaunted
smack, oh master of smackdom??? I see none... Could it be that your years
spent dwelling on MOCpages has drained your smackalicious creativity? Or
perhaps it was that bowl of paste?
All smack aside, I think this new site is great and the MOCs set forth my you
all is an inspiration to create my lego workshop once I move into my new
condo... Now where did I put all that light grey???

The fiery rhetoric has sputtered out, at least until I can refill the napalm
tanks. Rest assured Ill be ready for your next moc though. The old standup
act was getting tired and I had to pull it for new material.

Thanks Alex, although I have to question the reliability of a man who cant
remember where he put his grey. As all professional builders know, you should
have it next to your shotgun and liquor cabinet.

Your new site is a delight for the senses! Five fingers indeed! A fist! A
fist I say! Reviewing your site was like getting fisted! No, wait. It wasnt
like that at all. I mean, I dont know if it was like that because I
never...The important thing is that it is very cool (your site
not getting
fisted). Frankly I fail to see why everybody wants to talk about Keiths
Star Bull. What about that Galactic Inquisition thing? Now that is some note
worthy action! Statuary in space? Frenchmen empowered to destroy planets form
space? The rest of us better get some Germans up there quick! I think the
combination of turrets, statues, and the Greek Lettering make this the French
Starship of the epoch! Attack! Mike
