kerrmando Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Bought 1411 off of Amazon. Just wanted it. Quote
exciter1 Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Snagged a couple Series 10 Motorcycle Mechanics from EBay. It's the only minifig I wanted out of the whole series. "It's Cheech man!" Quote
Huskers1236 Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 With the Tower of Orthanc news today, I went ahead an bought two more LOTR: The Orc Forge sets. I'm not missing the boat on it like I did with Monster Fighter: The Zombies. I only purchased one MF: Zombies set and now I regret not getting more. I hope these are still around for May the 4th. Last I looked they were available, but with the Orthanc, I have a feeling they are going to get even more popular. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 This purchase was rather girly. Heh heh. Friends Stephanie's Outdoor Bakery Olivia's Speedboat Mia's Bedroom Stephanie's Cool Convertible Heartlake Flying Club All at Wal-Mart. Lord of the Rings Attack on Weathertop for $41.97 Finally got myself one at a good price at Target! The Orc Forge Must have just got some new stock in at Target; haven't seen any since before November last year. Some more Minifigures from Series 9 and cleaned out the rest of my Five Below pretty much until they get Series 10 in. If it wasn't for the discount on Weathertop and finding more Orc Forges, I would have been fine with just the Friends sets. Although I guess I did need a couple of 'guy' sets to even things out. Ha ha. ;-) Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Stephanie's Outdoor Bakery Heartlake Flying Club (with Stephanie) Captain American cycle thingy. The "stephanie" purchases are more for building a little town to mock my sister in law.. hahaha... Quote

I haven't seen an Orc Forge at any of my Targets since Christmas. Quote

I was actually very close to getting Weathertop and Stephanie's Convertible too! :) Quote

I haven't seen an Orc Forge at any of my Targets since Christmas.Sorry for the confusion, I had only meant that I found all those Friends sets at Wal-Mart; not Attack on Weathertop. I had found that redtagged set at Target. I should have specified that.I went back and edited my original post so no one gets confused. Sorry about that. Quote

Huskers1236 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Had a local garage sale saying they had "bulk legos". Figured I'd give it a shot and sneak out of work for a bit and check it out. (Don't worry, I work plenty of OT on salary, I don't mind sneaking out) Anyway, lady had a giant tote full of lego and she says she's selling gallon Ziploc bags @ $10. So far, I'm not too interested. Then she says, I'll just dump the thing out on a sheet and let people go through it". Jackpot. I was able to pull out dozens of figures in my first bag. Not just the crap either. Harry Potter, PotC, SuperHeroes, Star Wars, PoP, it was amazing. Unfortunately, they were all taken apart, so finding every little piece was hard, and I'm too old to be searching through a pile on the concrete garage floor. Parts were from very nice sets too. Aside from that, I was very happy to get lots of tan, dark tan, dark green, rock pieces, etc. for making scenery. Took my son the next morning and we fished around for more and picked up another $10 bag. So in all, for my $20, picked up: -25 complete figures -pieces for dozens more -6-7 lbs of parts -about a dozen animals Made me happy and made for a happy kid. Plan on selling the figures that are duplicates and basically have free Lego. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Now there's a real treasure haul, Huskers! Just awesome. :-) Quote
Huskers1236 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Now there's a real treasure haul, Huskers! Just awesome. :-) I offered her $100 for the whole thing, but she wanted to sell by the bag(probably a wise decision on her part, it was a huge tote). Said she was worried about making her kids mad since she was thinning out their toys. They were probably REALLY pissed when they saw what had been taken. Quote
Sflego86 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 9461 - Monster Fighters Swamp Creature for $5.00 clearance at Wal-Mart 9474 - LOTR - The battle of Helms Deep for $89.00 clearance at Wal-Mart Quote
chinothegeeko Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I picked up ten more orc forges! awesome, were they on sale too? Quote
TheOrcKing Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 awesome, were they on sale too? I'm curious to hear that too. Those seem destined to never go on sale. Quote

Huskers1236 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Man, do you live in Austin? I saw a craigslist ad for Garage Sale and they had gallon sized bags for 10.00 each. Nope, Lincoln Nebraska. Doubt there's many Husker fans in Texas. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 There are hardly any Texas fans in Texas lol Quote
