Brian May on being in LRB

[cherokeesam]

Why would it be confirmed? He only said he wished he had one, nothing any more then that

May said a jealous Joe Elliott, the Def Leppard singer, called him up to complain that he didn't get a minifig version. "Joe Elliott rang me up and said he was pissed off because they didn't make one of him," May said.

"Didn't get a minifig version" context: Joe Elliott/Def Leppard had a song licensed, and he was pissed that they didn't make a minifig of his likeness like they did Queen.

Which sounds very much like Def Leppard was originally slated for LRB, but was either (a) scrapped at the last minute (just like Limp Bizkit, AC/DC and ZZ Top --- lawlz herewegoagain forum hype) or (b) held in reserve for (dare I say it) DLC.

It's a meme around here. Any time HMXSean or someone says something like "I like band x" people swarm in and say "0mg, band x confirmed1!1"

I was interested until I saw it was 3K. My wallet's dead, Jim.

I can imagine the Emails

'What do you think of this one, Mr. May?'

'...Hmm...I won't allow this! Needs more perm'

'...Hmm...I won't allow this! Needs more perm'

'And this one?'

'Hmm... Face isn't cool enough. Scrap the WHOLE LEGO Queen, do them over again, and get it right this time.'

'And this time?'

'My fig's good, but too much of Freddie's mouth is showing when it's not open. I just wanna see the 'stache unless he's singing.'

This is absolutely exhibit A to these "devil's advocate" trolls who claim that Harmonix and Activision are remotely similar.

They both implement a similar concept... one gets the approval and praise of the artist, the other is getting pegged with lawsuits for its slipshod efforts.

I wanted to say that the attention to detail on his Lego-hair was amazing, but it seems rather moot now
