JCA, I've acquired another head that I thought might have a better resemblance to you. The one on the left is the original, the one on the right is the new one. Which is better?

The second would be good, but I'm not gray yet (or at least I'm much more pepper than salt).
I'm OK with either.

Here are some adventures from the GoinFU.

Frau, Ali, Young Minty, and myself are off on a glorious quest for riches and fame.

Along the way, we run in to Sam Elliott, prolific western actor and voice over extraordinaire.

Sam stops to greet the brave travelers.

He's kind enough to give us a beefcake! He also tells us of a mechanical carriage called a Dodge Ram, informs us that only we can prevent wildfires, and that beef is what's for dinner.

Afterwards, we run across the Green Giant.

This is too cool!

Here is the LoD posing for a group photo in Mount Doom.

Look at that background! Brilliant special effects!

Piece removers? I do not. I've never seen the need for one. LEGOs can be a nag to get apart at times, but not to the point that a special device is needed; at least not in my experience.

Just saw it on reddit and I'd never seen one before. Thought of this thread.

I don't see how it's supposed to help. I don't think it would work for the situations I can think of in which parts are stuck together.

So THAT is how they work! Also, that is the exact situation (1 x 2 plates stuck together.) that I was thinking of in which one piece remover wouldn't work. Still, I think that the function of the piece remover can be achieved with normal bricks. I think that they piece remover was a way to get a few extra bucks by LEGO. They cost $1.99, which is cheap enough to make them an impulse type purchase. Say you're ordering an item from LEGO, and you come across the piece remover in the catalog. It seems to serve a purpose and it's quite cheap, so you purchase it also without a second thought. But ten thousand of those little lumps of plastic cost fifty cents to make, making massive profits for LEGO. I'll wager that the executives in Denmark went like this when someone first came up with the piece remover:

I'm sorry, for the LOD, there are too many happy people. Too many smiles. These people can find a way to get upset at wins, shutouts, trades for 100+ MPH relief studs, succcessfully rehabbed Wangs, etc ... As far as I'm concerned, they can keep their non-functional Wang.

Holy crap. If I wasn't worried about looking like a pedo, I'd totally download that, especially since it's f2p.
