What Lego set did you buy today?

[keymomachine]

Picked up a couple of these for $8 a piece at Best Buy.

[CosmicSpeed]

Went in for 2x points on the Discovery Shuttle.

1x Roller Coaster

[Chormeister]

1x Roller Coaster (w/Space coin) and 1x Corner Garage (w/Octan coin)

Side note: ordered with “x2 VIP points”, only regular vip points showed up in the cart but I ordered anyway. Took a screenshot and sent an email to CS. That was all around 5:30-6:00am (EST) today. Looked back at my order on my Lego account and it says the order was placed yesterday. Weird. I’m sure CS will get it ironed out but it’s another step one shouldn’t have to take.

Well, I TRIED to order a Corner Garage but I got the SOMETHING HAS GONE WRONG SCREEN instead. So that's a great sign.

[BrickSamurai]

Double VIP picked up first round a couple of large sets, Star Wars Mos Eisley Cantina, Corner Garage and Ferrari 488.

Second round probably will pick up the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 and Imperial Star Destroyer.

May pick up some smaller sets as well but we'll see on the second round goes first

Ok, I know he flies a TIE fighter sometimes, but we usually just call him Darth Vader.

I pulled the trigger on an eBay listing for 10212 UCS Imperial Shuttle that was up for ~£119 inc. delivery. No figures or instructions visible, but as it happens I snagged a set of instructions cheaply (~£28) a couple of years ago just in case such a listing appeared. One of the pics was also detailed enough to tell that it was proper Lego and not bogus bricks. It just arrived, and looks like I lucked out here. No sign of discoloration, stickers all seem to be here, and there was even the Luke figure (albeit with the wrong hair). I have the correct hair piece, as well as the correct stormtrooper and most of the Vader figure too (just missing the right head). Looks like for less than £20 I'll have the full set of figures, putting me at about £166 for a complete set (though I'm yet to check through every single piece to make sure of that). Very pleased with this - you'd normally be lucky to get one in that condition for less than about £450.

I bought 97 centaur lower bodies off b&p today, I think I can potentially have 150 centaurs now. Time for a large fantasy moc.

Saw this lot posted on OfferUp for $100, that Triceratops is from the recently retired JW set - it's going for $30 on it's own on Bricklink, so I went for it. Haven't fully uncrated it yet, but it's definitely got an HP Great Hall, a Garma Mecha Man, and a 75218 X-wing with Biggs. So, a good buy!

[lebrick]

Hopefully I can complete the LOTR collection at a reasonable cost as these have shot up in value in recent years. So far, I was able to score these this month locally. I paid $60 Canadian each for 9470 and 9471 and $15 Canadian for the 79005. In USD, that's 73 cents all together.

Everyone that didn't go to their thrift store today is assuming this great find came from their's.

Swung down to local store today to grab a SW set and Tat promo - Saw the Looney Toons CMFs, I must have been under a rock, didn't even know they were coming out. I'm apparently very bad at all this.

Local LEGO Store was already sold out of them, a few customers were asking about them - I see still available at lots of online retailers.

I dug them overall. I don't usually collect the Minifig series, but may make an exception for these.

[brickvoyeur]

Not a today buy, but it finally arrived.

[thedingman5]

Not a set, per se, but all the rare or unique parts for the LEGO House exclusive Duck and Brick Moulding Machine sets arrived from Bricks and Pieces (also a couple rare ones for the LEGO House Dinosaurs and Tree of Creativity).  

Now to pull together the common pieces and build these exclusives!!!!

You wouldn't, by chance, have a copy of the part numbers from bricks and pieces would you?

Not sure what your after, but I just entered the set numbers 40501 and 40502. Surprised there are/were hundreds of the exclusive printed elements left. 

[coelian]

Cool find, is the printed Lego House tile for the two sets the same as this one?

I was in Billund two years ago, hopefully next year I can go back again to do the inside tour with my kiddo when he turns 10!

I love the idea of Bricklinking the Moulding Machine. Do you know where one can get a copy of the instructions? I Googled but came up empty. There's a speed build I could follow at slow-speed but I prefer to build at my own pace.

This is perfect. I followed one of these when I built the chariot promo from the Colosseum launch. Thanks much!
