  1. I don't think so. The Mystery Machine is an iconic pop culture vehicle that will appeal to fans of all ages. I rank it right up there with the Ecto-1 and Delorean. They can make as many as they want. This set will be a winner now, tomorrow, next month, and several years down the road.

  2. There are many types of members on brickpcker. Calling many members names or stereotyping others motives is in my opinion uncool.

  3. wow incredible deals ! I do not have any LM or Mixel deals but I did purchase 44 MM 2 in store and 42 on the way. It would have been 45 except there was a middle age guy looking really sad when I had the 3 in the cart along with some other sets I was getting and I said would you like one of them and he looked really excited so I gave him one. he was not a flipper but a true middle aged fan. trek has a heart.

  11. 2 Lego stores 1 LDC 13 TRU ~45 Targets (I'm near most on a more or less monthly basis - the stock tracker is a godsend!) Not going to count the Walmarts, sorry... I have an odd work schedule and drive around a bit anyway, so there are a great number of retail locations that are not "out of the way" at some point or another. And as I stated in the Target thread, this year is much tougher than last in terms of lack of clearance Lego being left on the shelves... but that's good because it helps me stay conservative.

  13. I don't see why not. The Imperial Star Destroyer has a still exclusive Imperial Officer, the Millennium Falcon has a Han Solo variant only available in one other set (the latest Mos Eisley Cantina), Clone Turbo Tank's soldier has a special helmet found here and the last Star Wars Advent Calendar, the TIE Interceptor's pilot also exclusive here and the 2014 Star Wars Advent Calendar, the X-Wing's pilot was an exclusive variant with new printing (torso & helmet), the AT-AT's driver limited to the Microfighter set and its larger latest version, same thing goes for the Republic Gunship's clone pilot, and to round up the ARC-170 Starfighter's clone pilot was an exclusive variant too. If LEGO is planning to design Microfighter sets around the Rebels universe, they could easily toss in any one of the main characters in there like Hera piloting her Ghost ship or The Inquisitor flying his TIE Advanced Prototype only in Microfighter form of course.

  23. I know it's "worth it" on a per set basis from my own clearance sales to other resellers but you coupon / deal stackers are truly special. I can't do it. God bless you all especially the KMart and TRU-TH buyers. Everyone I try it, it turns into one huge hassle with my cashiers.

  26. They are there. My dpci codes show them. I placed 5 orders in 5 separate stores. Two have been cancelled already. One is ready for pick up. I'm still waiting on the other two. For the stores that cancel them I am assuming that they haven't put them out yet and the employee filling the order is too lazy to look beyond the lego aisle for them.

  28. same thing here. Just noticed target.com showing inventory for all sets at my local store and online. I really want a Mystery Machine for a build review topic here so I placed 2 orders of 1 set each (online and in-store pickup). http://goto.target.com/c/65738/81938/2092?u=www.target.com/p/lego-scooby-doo-the-mystery-machine-75902/-/A-21506194 update: target (w/ my permission) changed my in-store pick-up option to shipping. it appears the store doesn't have them. so i am trying TRU now get a single set since i have $5 in rewards.

  31. All the Scooby Doo sets are either here or will be by Monday afternoon except the van. That will take a week. The sets will be used as birthday and Xmas presents plus school awards for the kids. I did manage to order 1 van and 1 plane for me.

  32. They may or may not restock this one in small quantities, but the bottom line is: If you want it, buy it now from wherever you can get it. With all the more lucrative themes on Lego's plate right now, they're not going to waste production capacity on LotR.

  33. So did I. But I got a poor Friends polybag instead of Winter Soldier. Was it the same for you? You can still order 5 pieces, so maybe they'll refill the stock.

  40. No it's not like that at all (your logic is flawed)... Saying the Batmobile is just another "car" would be like saying "Slave I is just another starship". If Starwars would bring out new Slave I starships with every star wars movie and LEGO would build new Slave I starships every now and then, who are differently enough (as are the batmobiles) then we would have an equal situation. http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/brush-up-on-your-bat-history-with-cbrs-batmobile-infographic-set Here you can see quite some batmobiles. The Tumbler might be "unique" but the batmobile as such is not. It's just another gadget for Batman, it doesn't matter how it looks like. Only because the dark knight triology has been a huge success and one of the more recent batman movies the tumbler is such a big deal. Long term Slave I will stay Slave I. THE STARSHIP of Boba Fett. If you wanna get Boba Fetts starship, that's what you'll get. The other question would be: Will they re-release an even better version of Slave I with the ongoing popularity of SW eventually? Don't see it coming for the next 10 years since they have enough going on right now. So there won't be another Version of the Tumbler at least, that's something. But maybe there's a good reason that there won't.

  41. Transformers age of extinction made more money than any of the prequels and that's one of the worst movies ever made, and Alice in Wonderland made more money that episodes 2 and 3. Look, there are some things I like about the prequels. The actual story is pretty good. It's the stale execution, editing and wooden acting that ruined them. There are some cool lightsaber battles and Darth Maul is awesome....but man, there are just too many brutal scenes. I'm a HUGE Star Wars fan, and I appreciate the prequels for what they added to the canon but they aren't great films. Episode 3 came close.

  42. That was the crux of the problem right there. GL wrote, directed, produced, and even edited ep 1-3 himself and nobody dared to challenge the big boss of Lucasfilms. Just look at the body languages of the staffs. Everyone waited for GL's reaction before reacting themselves. Ep 4 worked so well because GL had a team of professionals who argued with / challenged him on occasions.

  43. If you want to see a true cluster "F" watch the making of Episode 1 documentary. I watched it last night from the Amazon digital collection. They had a really good kid competing with Jake Lloyd and their decision to hire Lloyd was a huge mistake. Lucas is complimenting the actors and says "We have learned about Jake" not in a positive way. Look at the way Jake's 5 agents all pose around him and talk down to him, it's pathetic. Then he shows spielberg the battle droid and says "this is the next stormtrooper." Everything about those battle droids sucked, when they die on the battlefield nobody cares. When I was growing up, we all thought "Clone wars" was going to be a fight between awesome Jedis and a bunch of bounty hunters that looked like Boba Fett or cloned jedis, something interesting. Watching sterile white clones of jango fett fight boring robots was the worst possible interpretation of the clone wars I could imagine. Also in the doc, Lucas states that the whole movie hinges on Jar Jar. "If we can make Jar Jar work, we have a great film." This was a wealthy, middle aged man who hadn't done anything creative in decades with nobody to disagree with him or edit his terrible drafts. And I'm not saying middle aged men can't be creative - look at John Lassiter. Thank goodness he sold it to Disney. What they come out with this December can not possibly be worse than what Lucas would have done.

  46. ​September 4th is the release date for the Episode 7 legos. There is a total of 7 sets coming out, and I believe that's it for the year, until the usual January wave. Also, there is a rumored Sith Infiltrator due out that will be a TRU exclusive.
