What Lego set did you buy today?


Recommended Posts

I have a used qar and pearl I think complete maybe missing a fig or two.  Sure wish I could post a trade ad for it...

Brick Classifieds has trades. But yea I miss the trade feature that was here too. 

On topic - today purchased a PS from LEGO Shop at Home, a PC from amz, and a $60 bricklink order for a 10210 I am slowly putting together.

Yes, people need to really start looking at anything Starwars asap, if you haven`t already. Everything, and I mean everything will experience a boost in demand. I fully expect empty shelves (closer to XMas) and high secondary market prices beginning in the fall and continuing into 2016. You all should as well, if you thought Jurassic World or the Avengers made a lot of money (they did) wait till you see what Episode 7 does at the box office...

Surprised no limit on these.  Usually something lame like 4.   Oh well I'm happy...

I have word from a friend that this guy I know bought 900 of these.

sounds like he is trying to do an Extinction Level Event on these.

Can you imagine the type of person who buys 900 of these ?

Wish I had those kind of resources his moves leave me in awe.  If I could do that with all the star wars stuff I am stockpiling I would be in sweet bliss.

Any suggestion of what to target for stocking up on - or would it be better to wait for the new released sets ?

Trek is back!!!

It's like the extinction event 65 million years ago all over again...all hail king Trek!

thanks guys glad to be back!

Put Star Wars and a Jurassic Park (World) exclusive poly together and I get goosebumps!

I just bought two brand new absolutely completely mint ucs vader tie by the way.

There are only 3 listings left on eBay at the moment that are brand new sealed and if it does not get replaced soon these will take off.  If they do get replaced l can crack one open build and display the other.

Not really the best thread to discuss it (sorry to interject guys, I know I`m long winded sometimes :derisive:), but honestly I really think most anything StarWars will gain some kind of growth in interest (little to a lot depending on what it is). I really think most anything, with some exceptions, is fair game for investment at the right price. Iconic sets from the previous trilogies that have a lot of recognition should do very well. Sets like R2-D2 last year will be a big hit come Xmas (he already is, but you get my point. If you`ve got these, hang onto them). People have got to decide for themselves what they will invest their money in, but my opinion would be investing in anything from the original trilogy (4-6) and the new upcoming sets for Episode 7 would be an ideal place to start. 

Also, consider, Episode 7 will introduce Starwars to a whole new generation of kids, as well as reignite the fanbase of the parents and those who grew up with StarWars and who want to share that interest with their kids. We`ve never seen the StarWars universe presented the way it will be for the next several years (the advances in CGI for example, as well as having 3 films together, combined with 3 more spin-off films). It`s arguably the most recognized franchise of all time, with only a couple of others that you could put alongside. That kind of exposure creates a hugely diverse market to appeal to, people who connect with different aspects of the films as well (different sets and products). What I`m getting at is, you really aren`t going to go wrong with 90% of Lego StarWars sets or other merchandise at the right price, and if you know how to sell it to respective buyers. There`s tons of money to be made, if it`s got the StarWars logo on it and has a part of the upcoming films (specifically Episode 7) or previous trilogies (4-6), someone will want to buy it. 

I love that ravenb99 bought that entire box of Magnet sets, those are fantastic items. They aren`t big UCS sets, but the gold here is in a higher ROI per item. Little things like that if bought at the right price will do very well later this year. Just look around, evaluate the items/sets/price-point, pick something(s), and go with it. Should do just fine.
