How much did you pay?

$450 - still a lot of pieces left to sort still though.

Looks like a good buy.  Obviously doesn't make sense business wise but I did that once and it was fun sorting and see what was complete.  I originally planned on selling it off but it became part of my kids collection 😛

the Dino figures hold value.  Do folks have an opinion on whether new different unique dinos do best or the traditional ones?

Dang, those are all new too. Looks like some little dude f’d up his grounding resulting in a fire sale by momma. I would know because I literally had no toys left by the age of 9 due to the same reason.

As I continue my break of buying for resale, I've come to realize that you can interconnect these bricks to create things. It's not just about the gold rush. 

Picked up a few custom figures to go along with the figures from the original TMNT wave.

The 9525 Pre Vizsla's Mandalorian Fighter bought on eBay.  Had the Mandalorian Death Watch Warrior minifigure in my collection to add to it.  I thought the lighting was better. 

Side by side comparison with the 75316 Mandalorian Starfighter;

Doing my part to help reverse coral reef loss.

This one won't melt until 221 degrees. Good luck big oil.

Took advantage of the Fleet Farm sale and bought an extra copy of 75369 and 75344. Used them to build the Ultimate Boba Fett Mech from Rebrickable.com. I made a few adjustments to use a more of the parts and lower the jet pack. 2nd pic is the leftover parts from both sets.

Cool little build. I enjoy the show and put it together while watching it.

Free is good too.

But I think the castle last year was a bit better as a display piece.

[jaybinx73]

Built(and sold) these power miner sets from a lot I got.  Not many figures, but neat little builds

[keymomachine]

Did a Lego themed trunk for church trunk or treat this year. Built up the mega figure for it. Brought along Apocalypseburg to display and had a good time with my impromptu activity: see if you can spot the minifigure going for $200. It was my first time doing one of these, I think next year I'll make a list of things to spot and maybe some kind of giveaway.

This was such a fun theme and managed to pull off that bright green color scheme, I think. The unique helmet piece is a favorite minifigure accessory for me, I wished LEGO had kept it going forward. The design had a kind of "Starship Troopers" feel about it.

The only set I regret not buying to build. Looks great!

Wish I had kept one too.  My thinking at the time was how many sets am I holding on to thinking this way.  Super cool

well...will need to buy a few of these just so I have...options

(the used Apoacollapburgs sitting in a box in the corner of my office will come in handy)

The best “Architecture” set I have ever built and probably even better if you are a HP fan and know all of the references. Lego really got it right with this form factor and I bet we will see more crossover sets from other themes in 2024. 

[Pseudoty]

For 50% off couldn’t resist. Super easy build.

I have built the Eiffel Tower and Pac-Man arcade since Insider's weekend.   As with most of the big Icons/Architecture type sets, the build is a slog with the Eiffel Tower.  End result is amazing, but it's not a particularly fun build, ala the Colosseum.  PacMan was fun from start to finish and the workings behind how they created the game board are really cool.  I'd suggest this set to anyone, especially those of us older that actually played these types of arcades as kids.  It will go well with my Nintendo and have the Atari to build at some point as well.  I really want to MOC up a Pitfall type board for another TV similar to the Mario for the Nintendo, but not sure I have the building chops to do it.

I saw a YouTube video from Bricksie where he accidently kicked his Eiffel tower that was sitting on the ground and was dreading putting it back together because the build was so boring and repetitive.
