Saw this pic on reddit today. Sure the DO isn't a huge modular or anything, but man the Slave I looks massive.

TRU in us is like crazy uncle - nobody knows what he will do next. Might pull the pants down any minute. What did discounts on PR and sandcrawler meant?

She can have it for $75

Alpine maps called it I will call every store in the country to find a set I want but ... It was absolutely not me. I only ordered one repeat quantity one from a lego store to hone I never violate limits of Lego... For real...

And trekgate was his name-o... Already a legend...

from american pickers: the time to buy something you have never seen before, is when you see it

21117 The Ender Dragon price drop to $59.99 on Amazon and Target

quite the opposite actually. No kid would understand the prohibition angle unless it was explained to them.

Here is their official video.

Looks like it is for real - 76042 (for 349.99 - it should be huge). http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-marvel-super-heroes-ucs-avengers-helicarrier-confirmed/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+LegoEverlasting-LegoReviewsNews+%28The+Brick+Fan+-+LEGO+Reviews+%26+News%29

I think people who go and clear out lego stores and leave nothing for poor little Timmy should get a life :)

There is an education system outside of the US you know...... and for those that didn't use it there's always Boardwalk Empire

40056 Thanksgiving Feast has some bottles that are good substitutes. LEGO is not stupid, they just can't do alcohol smuggling: pool bar and cookies? Come on. Even lego says it's alcohol. This set is really fun. If they stop the modular line after this, I am going to kidnap Jamie, throw him in a hole with heaps of LEGO and play the "put the modular in the basket" game.

Well, here is a brilliant alternate model showing just one way this set can be transformed into a modular home on par in size with the larger brethren. >LEGO Alternative 31026 - House Church by alanboar >LEGO Alternative 31026 - House Church by alanboar >LEGO Alternative 31026 - House Church by alanboar

Hmmmm, so we all pool together to fly one person to the billund airport. Anyone have airline connections? I have a friend who works for American. Maybe I can fly there standby and buy 10k. How many suitcases would that fill?

Greatest all time episode of cribs!!

Thats what she said.

It would be a foolish move in my opinion not to buy those sets. I pay above retail for many special sets all the time and I never regret it. People need to realize that not every LEGO set has to be bought at a discount for it to be a good deal in the long term.

Little Johnny wants all of the retiring sets for Christmas and can't get any because they're out of stock, and now has a sad face in front of the Christmas tree. Timmy wants many of the EOL'ing now sets because his grandma is willing to buy them for him. C'mon people, let's get this right! (in the words of Ron Burgundy). Sad to say, my 7-year old nephew wants the Death Star and R2 still and I don't think he'll be getting them anytime soon from his parents (and rightfully so). He likes Star Wars, Chima, and Ninjago. Perhaps I can sell one to my sister in the future...

Yeah, I bet it is some sort of multichannel fulfillment thing, from centralized stock

Don't be mad at someone hustling just because you didn't think of it first! Better than sitting at your computer f5ing!

Why!? Cause someone has the balls to go all - in?

I guess December is a slow month... She probably has time to set up a booth in the TRU parking lot to unload these. Not sure it's worth it after paying her salary and gas.

I think I'll move to Australia!

And Sold out.....wow that went fast.....

You can drive to Australia to fetch those prices.

KREO Teletubbies for everyone!

Yes. Its for five days. Either ends sunday or Monday

Superb !

I saw a couple soccer Mom's picking up the Smallville's today, without knowing much better.

RIP ODB

I'm not sure I would have figured out what they were going for had I not watched the video. Using cookies would have made it more confusing for myself if I was just going to study the set/box and try to figure out what was going on. I will say that for my kid, once I explained to him that they were using the hiding spots to sneak the cookies past the detectives...he would have a blast with it.

Mine shipped as well.

Just got one sandcrawler from tru minty as he'll, waiting for #2 to ship

I have a MC The End story that I will try to get some pics of if more show up tomorrow. Ordered 1000...via orders of 5. Casepacks are 6...seems simple crack and remove 1. Nope. They have arrived in 7 different packages types/sizes. Last year they shipped these in nice little boxes that fit them almost as nice as a casepack, this year they apparently went package crazy and have no idea what they are doing. So what should have been 200 packages has ballooned to probably close to 500ish.

If anyone's still after Town Halls, spotted 4 at Myer Chadstone half an hour ago as of this post. They currently have buy 1 get 50% off the 2nd toy, includes Lego. Palace Cinema and Parisian are also available.

Sounds like a sweat shop...lol. I wish I could get my kids to help out with the packing. All they do is play mine craft while I'm up to my ears in shipping materials.

Yes!

My eyes did not go directly to the lego leg

I agree but if you "know" deep down in your heart of hearts that the Tumbler you have been investing in hand over fist is going to be in the top 1% percent of sets for ROI all time, would you go buy something else because it's on sale? I wouldn't because you'd be leaving money on the table at that point. There are many other reasons to have variety too. If you have store or if you sell parts on brinklink. You're not going to sell just one set or a single brick element, you need to have a variety. I'm not saying go all in on a single set but this game is taking risks and getting rewarded for it. My first real "high volume" investment was the RI and I'm still reaping the benefits from it.

irgendwer hatte doch gefragt ob es die Rocket Raccoon Polybag gibt.. " vielen Dank f

My entry is ready

LOL and THERE IS a little desk fan in the detective office!! I am sold, I just love noir. I will so buy 3 of these and mod the hell out of them. Now I just need cigarettes for the detective, a frowning unshaven head and some alcohol bottles for the bar downstairs. Seriously thinking on making a custom butcher's shop, just for completeness's sake. In my opinion this is the best modular that's been released. Some might be bigger, rarer or represent fancier building techniques but the feeling, atmosphere and vibe packed into this is unmatched for me. A dirty, shabby city block. This is what I needed!

That's one of the coolest MOC I've seen so far.

So i got one hell of deal, i think even the best deal of the year for me. I managed to get 170 (yes, 170) polybags of this guy for under $5 each at my local Game Mania (Dutch Game Store). My question is: Should i flip them or keep them for longer?

We need a post from mscheaf then we will know that it is going to go out of stock everywhere shortly. (actually it is just at LEGO Shop at Home with limit 2 so not sure it will happen that quick).

Mack, Stray away from this thread until I get 20 more. Thank You!

I'm going to do exactly what Mr Mack says!

Or a talanted brother has made to make his sister smile ;-)

With them being relatively new, there really won't be any data on them yet. Many people have been cold on these so far, but some of the builds are pretty cool. Problem with lines like this, IMO, is that AFOLS are your target demographic when selling retired sets. They have the money. Do you see them ponying up a bunch of money for that Chima set? I personally don't. Not saying I'm right, but I see more money in lines that AFOLS are going to relate to better, ALA Star Wars, DC/Marvel, classic lines from childhood, advanced building sets. You get the idea.
