What Lego set did you buy today?


Recommended Posts

Microfighters AT-AT & Snowspeeder

Double-Decker Couch

Emerald Express $3.50 (Walmart)

Equila's Ultra Striker $19.99 (Target)

Speedorz Frozen Spikes $6.50 (Target)

I found four in total of Series 13 hidden all over Walmart. No box or anything in any reasonable location. It was like an oddball treasure hunt but in the end I believe to have found the Egyptian Warrior, Snake Charmer, Goblin, and Samurai Girl which just leaves the other 12.... and the bunch my mother wants for her own collection. She wants practically half of the series this time around. Ha.

Series 13 has been a real pain in the butt to find this time around.  TRU is the only store currently that has them.  I did grab the Couch when I was there as it's the only place I've seen that set as well.

Thanks for thinking of me, guys.  It's still pretty early in the S13 life, so I'm not too worried about them yet.  Amazing the shear amount of S12 out there.  Targets have had cases just stacked next to each other while there is an empty placeholder for 13.  I've managed half of the S13 set as I don't smoosh for hours on end.  I'll spend 5 minutes here and there if a store has them and see if I can find some I don't have.  I have a feeling the hot dogs are going to be hard to find if a box has been out more than a couple days.

Kids smooshed, grabbed an extra hotdog guy

Daughter: dad you should hide the hot dog guy in your room and scare mom when she wakes up

Me: I already gave her the hotdog guy this morning (wife gasps)

Daughter: what did she do? Scream?

Me: yes!! (Wife dies laughing)

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Brickpicker mobile app

LOL. You can never have too many hotdog guys. Probably the highest value relative to time needed to confirm by smooshing (is there an acronym for that?). I feel hotdog guy is very easy to find and certainly worth it when I pass through a Series 13 stash (which are drying up very quickly where I live).

Smooshing/the feel method isn't a problem for this guy. The problem is that everyone is looking for it... and in big cities, "everyone" is a big number. :)

2 10233 MISB Horizon Express sets for $96.22 each.

1 10219 MISB Maersk train for $200.

Used profits from sales and a 10181 Eiffel Tower trade to pick-up a compete 10189 Taj Mahal late last month. It has the box and instructions. I don't even want to list the buying price because it's the 2nd costliest set purchased though the price was very fair.

I plan on displaying it with the 10179, 10196 and 10181. Now just gotta build it and the 10196.
