Popular Post brickvoyeur Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Quote I'll read the Nightmare Before Christmas story this year, kids. Twas the night before Clearance And all through the aisle Steamrollers were packed Into my cart like a pile Exo Suits were hung In the storage with care Knowing that in a decade They still will be there Sergeant Jyn Erso was nestled Deep under my bed With terrible proportions And a face that looks dead Wonder woman in her armor And cheetah in her cap The lasso of truth will tell you That this set is pure crap When out on my doorstep A noise shook me awake ShopJustice still delivering Olaf Flat as a pancake Faster shipping than FedEx The turds as they came I cried and I pouted As I called them by name "Now, Dots! now, Mario! Now Lego Movie 1 and 2! On, Raiders! on, Mighty Dinos! On, Takodana and constractables too! To the depths of the dumpster! Stacked 50 feet tall Now throw away! throw away! throw away all!" Each year I make efforts To donate a bit more But Toys for tots sends a bill For returning them to my door Since I can't give them away I'll dig a big pit It's the final solution To get rid of this sh!t I shook as I laughed At the thought of relieving this pain It was nearly 3am So I looked quite insane As I poured the kerosene I cheered with delight "I'll light you on fire, So you're out of my sight" Edited December 7, 2022 by brickvoyeur 15 18 Quote

legodelorean Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 people are so impatient. these are slated to be the promo next week, after that they will be everywhere. So when you say that it will be the promo next week, does that mean that you have to buy something in order to get the polybag? Or will you be able to buy the polybag out right without having to purchase anything? Quote
legodelorean Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 ebay or CL? eBay. Wish it was CL. Cash is better but I'm not going to complain. I was surprised it sold. Quote

Or will you be able to buy the polybag out right without having to purchase anything?The way it's been with TRU, most of us will have to pay $30+ to get one, Raven & Pseudoty will get 5,000 of them somehow w/o additional purchases, and Mscheaf and I will never see a single one. 1 Quote
DadsAFOL Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Haunted House $499.99 incl shipping. EBay That was about a year earlier than I expected. 5 Quote
zskid00 Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Haunted House $499.99 incl shipping. EBay That was about a year earlier than I expected.That's an awesome price! I see other BINs for $425-450 and recent completed listings closer to $400. I hope you have a legit buyer and required immediate payment. Quote

I might just have to do that....... Quote
No More Monkeys Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 ...1x MISB UCS MF for £1000 cash (Values plummeting due to rumours of a new version)...Could you please point out couple of links suggesting presence of such rumors? (besides 75105) 1 Quote

legodelorean Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Well I'd probably buy a dozen or two, but I'm not known for making wise decisions. I went back tonight after work and they were cleaned out. I never have good luck with polys. The ones I think might sell I have to sit on and the ones that I'm not sure about and only buy a few of end up being the good ones. Maybe it's a sign and once next week hits these things will drop and I won't be stuck with a bunch of polys that will be readily available. Can't be too greedy I guess. Quote

Can't be too greedy I guess.They may not have been cleaned out. It's entirely possible that they finally got word that they aren't supposed to be on the shelf yet, and pulled their stock.It happened to me a couple weeks back with the TIE Advanced poly. I had a number of people local to me tell me they picked them up at the same local TRU. When I went in there a couple days later, they were gone. I asked, and TRU told me they had pulled them off the shelf for a promotion the following week. 1 Quote

Alpinemaps Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 When you went back the next week were you able to buy them or did you have to buy something else to get them as a promo? They were up on the regular pegs for ploys. The signs were up for the promo but you could just buy them outright as well. Quote
legodelorean Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 They were up on the regular pegs for ploys. The signs were up for the promo but you could just buy them outright as well.Did you end up buying any to sell or was that pointless since they were pretty much available to everyone? Quote
Alpinemaps Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Did you end up buying any to sell or was that pointless since they were pretty much available to everyone?At that point, I just bought for me and the kids. I was planning on buy a few to pair with the AT-DP 30274, but seeing that 30274 is going to be coming to TRU soon, I'm just dumping my stock now, and not worry about pairing it up.So, short answer is no, I'm not buying any for investment. At least, not right now. I may change my mind on that later. Quote
