What Lego set did you buy today?


Recommended Posts

6 Cantinas in PERFECT boxes at a really sketchy Walmart for $49 each. Couldn't believe how nice the boxes were. They're always destroyed at this store. 

And.................sadly, i went ahead and scooped up the 3 Raptor Escapes they had. 

I still don't believe this theme at large is bound for early extinction, but i'm also not above hedging my bets on a non-TRU store exclusive with popular exclusive characters.

Cashier was asking me if i had ever seen the Lego Death Star. I told him i had one in my trunk. I think he thought i was messing with him :)

Did you get any uncomfortable questions from the clerk ringing you up regarding the quantity purchased?  Just curious.

Nope. Too busy to care I guess. I've bought multiple modulars at the same time from that location and never been questioned from the veteran employees. The new employees are the ones that usually draw attention to the big purchases.

I bought my first JW set.  Raptor Rampage.  Got one off of Target Ebay...paid full RRP!  Don't know if I've paid full price in a long time (well...I got 1 ebuck or whatever).  I've been selling a bunch of Funko's so it's basically just turning one product into another.  :)

Despite what many here will say, there is no shame in paying full retail price. 

(When you have to, of course.)

HELP!! I have the opportunity to pick up 14 #75054 for $80/EA and $12.00 total for shipping. I already have well over 100 of these. This deal seems to good to pass, but  I just need some others opinions. Please help. Thank you.

I can also get 16 #75052 - Cantina for $50/ea and free shipping if I buy the others at $80/ea.

I'd like to see how 100 AT-AT's look. :D

Well at one Walmart I was at today they did not lower the IR sets on clearance and I put them back on the shelf. I picked up 3 Raptor Exchanges at that store...

But I really wanted to find a "deal" somewhere in the store.

I thought OK let me start looking and I looked up on the shelf straight in front of me and low and behold I bought this very good condition for $39 new and seals look great.

Trying to decide if I want to flip it or add it to my collection.

second order from jet.com

picked up one of each ISD, MC crafting box, BM & Angry Kitty, Skyhopper, TIE Adv, Snowspeeder, Jedi Intercept.  All worked out to $310 RRP for $210, plus a free 12 month membership using the google coupon code.  could have saved another $10 if i waived the returns, but not taking that risk yet.

not sure how long this lego train will last at jet, but will take advantage while I can.

Found 3x 75021 at Barnes and Noble for $94 each after member discount and 18% gift cards.

I did the same about a month ago.  It was nice of Barnes and Noble to store these for us while we waited out their retirement.

Cool looking ship/set.  I'd be tempted to keep.  Darth Maul had so much potential...shame Lucas screwed that up.  Maybe too scary for the youngsters?

My favorite Lucas interview was where he said one of his favorite characters and that he would like to have explored more is Darth Maul.  He then went on to say that with what happened it would be really difficult to see any possible way to bring him back.

Disney can find a way.  Not sure they will LOL.

"They" already found a way (from The Clone Wars series) and it was creepy.

thanks bt I did not know as I have not followed that series much.

I will have to watch it.

Oh wow, "The Clone Wars" is great and the story with Ventress, Savage Oppress (Maul's brother) and DM is crazy, morbid and dark.
