What Lego set did you buy today?


Recommended Posts

Alright everyone so I finally finished my $400 ucs millennium falcon (10179) and boy it was by far one of the most stressful builds that I've ever done, But the end result was worth it lol and it was only missing a handful of pieces, the Han solo and Chewie minifgs as well as the stickers so I definitely lucked out! Now All I have to do is inventory and build the ucs Batmobile (7784) that the seller threw in for free with the falcon :P

I bought three 60057 Camper Vans that were on clearance at Target for $9.98 each, marked down from $19.99. I don't normally invest in City, but for 50% off I thought what the hell.

I went searching for those last night. Stock tracker showed 9.99 but it was still 15 when I got there. Downtown store? Edited by tballw32

I stumbled across three of the same at Target after dropping my kiddo at soccer practice. And like you, I don't usually buy City, but it's a nice little set for the magic discount. What the hell indeed.

Yep. Lunch break run just to see what was there. They had Lego Movie Melting Rooms last week for $9 and some change and I wanted to see if they were still there and maybe even marked down lower. I sent you a PM about it.

Hmmmm......so do I keep all three for investment purposes or do I keep one and give the other two to the kiddos? Decisions decisions........

My son had the older iteration, 7639, and it was a fun set. Surf board instead of canoe and all that... Originally $16.99 MSRP in 2009, 7639 goes for about $35 now.

 

So yeah, no one will get rich with City, but I plan to keep one for the youngest son (now 3) and make $5-10 each on the others if I can around Christmas. I put most of my investment dollars in big exclusives or other "collectible" themes (Ideas, Minecraft, Architecture), but a few entry level items are nice to have up on eBay.

I just got my Lego Fire Brigade from ebay paid $330 including shipping.  Its for my sealed Modular collection.

 

That's a GREAT price for FB (sealed).  Where did you find this?

 

Edit: duh.  Says eBay right in your note.  I must have missed this.  Auction or BIN?

Look up sold listing of FB 10197 on March 20.  Thats me buying at $330 including shipping for BIN.  I think I bought it within a few minutes of the listing.
