AD41 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Because of the double points I bought a Helicarrier at LegoShop, kept on doubting about this one... But when I saw the seal 24S5 , no more doubts... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
botchy123 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Quite a funny experience this morning. I went food shopping with the Mrs. this morning to Tesco. I picked up a scanner and while she was putting the lottery on i asked her to meet me in the Toy aisle. As i was walking alone towards the aisle i heard a little voice behind me " Daddy, i love Lego. Lets go and see the toys". I looked around straight away and there he was - Timmy. Quickly speeding up i reached the Lego section, a quick look about and there i saw them. Those Microfighter Vulture droids marked on the shelf at £7 but scanning at £2. Getting out my scanner i double checked the item - Bingo £2, within 10 seconds i whip 2 rows of them into my trolley ( 14 in total ) Then i hear him, little Timmy " Daddy, look Lego Age of Ultrons". Little Timmy's Father says " Timmy that is too expensive, you need to look at something cheaper than that. Then his parent starts to show him the other toys. " No, no , no, I want Lego he screams " Straight away my Mrs arrives, looks in my trolley and gives me that look. Then i explain the situation to her about little Timmy screaming behind us. Reluctantly i pick one of Microfighters out of the trolley and ask her to go and offer it to Little Timmy's father and mention that it's normally £10 but it scans at £2. She gives it to little Timmy's father and he says " Timmy do you like Lego Star Wars?". A loud scream follows " i want Age of Ultron !!! " and he gives it back to us. Moral of the story is ??? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaisonline Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Moral of the story is the kid even knows to stay away from SW Micros even for £2. I'm on his side. Sounds like a smart brat 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legoray01 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) Vet Clinic at my Loge Lego store. 9.98 and double points I will take it since it is on the ebay for $28.00. No chickens though so I proceeded to come home and sign on to SAH and get the Scooby package for $107 so I can get another damn chicken and not pay shipping.

Not that i say that every 7 year old likes Age of Ultron over SW mind you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a smart brat Star Wars Microfighters at 50% off has been just about the best performing lego investment i've made in the last 2 years. buying and selling over 60 $5 Tie interceptors and Millennium Falcons and selling them for $26 (interceptors) and $36-40 (MF's) with first class shipping $2.60 anywhere in the US helped make Feb 2016 my 3rd best money making month in the last 2 years. even the microfighter x -wings which i paid $7 for and sold for $26 were a great investment.
