So as a verb, we can say " doing a trench run" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdfan Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Here's another one. I couldn't make out if he said he bought it for his girlfriend or if his girlfriend bought it for him but apparently it was a birthday gift about 2 weeks ago. Shhh... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThRok Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 The impending release of 75159 is having a real impact on the 'market'. About six mint condition 10188s have popped up on Craigslist over the last few days ranging from $440-$525. One dropped from $500 to $440 overnight. Wow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThRok Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Notice how some boxes show age 12+, while others show 14+? Is that a Europe vs. U.S. production spec? Perhaps 12 year olds in the U.S. are unskilled builders? ... Refocusing energy ... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilrock Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I've already been through the anger stage so now i'm just going to go into denial and plead for logic. What if this version is limited to just a year release and will be gone by the end of next year after Rogue One is out of the way? That can happen, can't it? Surely it can! Surely they'll do that. Right ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the off topic q but generally when there are pics leaked does LTG legal send a generic mail round to all fan sites reminding them not to allow unofficial posts or do they only send mails to sites where the pictures are up? In short - is someone at TLG actively monitoring this thread for any material that shouldn't be here? Actually really interested to know how it works (i dont have anything btw in case you think i have a follow up post!). Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably use some type of search engine to look for recently added pictures that match one or more predefined strings. They obviously can't actively monitor every Lego website or fanpage out there. It gets more complicated when you have non-public forums or member only websites. They can basically post whatever pictures they want and Lego will not know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I've recently discovered I may be that hoarder. I console myself with the thought of "if it has value it not hoarding." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
