What Lego set did you buy today?


Recommended Posts

Got a case… but, only had 2 werewolves in it, and instead there were 5 gargoyles.  Regardless, i've managed to land 5 complete sets with the addition of this case, as I also found these early at a Target when some of their employees disregarded the "out on september 1st only" stickers…  Can almost make a sixth complete set, if I get a few figs.

The box looks wonderful. Doesn't it?

They did a good job on this line and the box is really nice. .  I must admit, those very preliminary photos that were taken and put on the web didn't do this line justice.  I freaking love the bigfoot figure, along with the Fly, Plant Monster, and Zombie Pirate.

This line is going to be one of the more popular minifigure lines, I assume. 

Although, I do think they have another winner with the Disney line coming down the pipe.

I picked up the following yesterday:

1 Ferris wheel

1 Louvre

1 F40

1 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium

1 kwik E mart

I already have/built these sets, with the exception of the shuttle and the Louvre.  Built the shuttle yesterday (which I have been looking forward to getting for some time now) and found it underwhelming.  Not sure if its because I've been building mainly UCS or larger more detailed sets, this one just looks Meh.  My wife will build the Louvre, which looks interesting.

Built the Louvre last night and enjoyed it. Parts were tedious and there are a bunch of tiny, tiny pieces (not to mention some are transparent which creates its own problem) but the build was rewarding. I admit I'm an architecture nerd, not a trained one, but more like "look at building...building pretty"

edit: if I ever pass I.M. Pei on the street, I'm punching that guy in the back of the head.

Wall-E $69.99 (CDN)  - Gee I haven't paid retail in a long time (local toy shop), but definitely worth it!

36x  random SW mini's on sale @$5.oo  (reg $12)  didn't even really look to see what ones they were yet. (always kinda fun to arm-swoosh an entire shelf into a cart) must have been there for awhile as nearly all the rest of the shelves were all but empty save a few turtle sets & messed up Simpsons II minifigs.

3x turtle layers at WM $40.oo off

2 wall-e

2 tiger, 1 plat, 2 spider, 1 cheer series 14.

and now a question

Is there a thread on how to keep fees down on amazon? I looked at series 14 figures and at lowest price after fees its more economical to take back some of them

Yeah, I've lost a few cents on some Series 14 sales (hello zombie pirate), but don't mind since I'm small time and trying to hit that 25 transactions goal for holiday selling :mda:

I really like selling on Amazon - have had much more success than Ebay. But selling very small $ items like this is not very economical given their fee structure.
