  5. Three Targets near me. Each with their own quirks when it comes to this release of minifigures: Store #1 - Has the figures behind the desk at electronics (obvious place to buy your LEGO). You are allowed only four of them, and you can't touch them. Store #2 - I asked on Sept 1st, seeing on the stock tracker that they had plenty in stock. The nice employee informed me that the new minifigures were Star Wars and they couldn't put them out until the 4th. I explained that they were not Star Wars, and he assured me that all of the new Lego was Star Wars. Now it is 9/7, they still have the same count in the stock tracker and not a figure on the shelf. Store #3 - Their stock was at 90ish on Saturday but only 15-20 Simpson figures could be found. I asked a nice associate about them and politely shared that the # was the same as the Simpson figures but asked if he could check if they had any of the new series in stock (sharing the # with him). He checked and saw the same high count that I'd seen on the stock tracker. After walking up and down the Lego isle, he came upon the Simpson figures and told me he found them....sigh. I asked if they might have the new ones in the back and he assured me they do not keep anything in the back but put it out right away. I didn't want to ask him how the 15-20 Simpson figures somehow matched the 90 stock count he'd pulled up. Went back to Store #3 again tonight. The stock counter has jumped to over 200. Once again, only 15-20 Simpson figures out front. I asked a different associate about the new ones (again, being open that they share the same number as the Simpson ones). This time I was told that they had not received any of the new ones yet and that "None" of the Targets carry the new figures yet because Targets get those much later than other stores. So.... all of you who have found your figures at Target you should return them. They are clearly Mega Blocks.

  8. When you really think about it though, 200 is not a lot, especially when that is only 9 complete sets. There's more than 9 kids in your area that want them...

  11. So let me get this straight, they could create perfectly working cybernetic hands, but not C-3PO's paint jobs ????? By movie IX, it should get blue chestplate and purple right thigh to match the red arm and silver leg

  12. Just picked-up a complete display from target with 120 pieces. Should I open all of them and make 6 sets or sell as a whole??? Felt bad taking the whole box, but employees said go ahead and take it!

  17. Oh yeah, I forgot about that. You know, that might work fairly well with both since there is an orange and blue channel on the remotes (and channels)! You could control up to 8 rides from the same remote. The EV3 motors are also speed sensitive and programmable... could probably make an EV3 program to control the ride. Program it to load/unload people and rotate for a while. Hmmm... looks like I finally have an easy project to start with!

  18. Here is what is wrong and the parts you need: http://brickset.com/article/16465/what-s-wrong-with-21303-wall•e Lego is sending me two sets of replacement parts, so you are probably safe getting at least two. And this fixed the neck and now it works great: http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-ideas-wall-e-21303-head-modification-by-chris-mcveigh/ Now to add power functions! (The Baymax is my own creation and if you like it go to Lego Ideas and support it)

  23. Over the last few days: 31012 Family House for $95 shipped on eBay Orange, Brown and Blue Series 2 Mixels for around $30 each set of 3. Seems like I'm making slightly better money selling them in 3s rather than sets.

  24. Cool! These prices are/were pretty common to find. Benny isn't bad at that price, but i'd stay away from Dropship at $80. On the topic of WM clearances - I found 2 RE's in a clearance section at a local WM. However no sticker and no reduced scan price, and i don't need anymore at full retail. I'll certainly keep my eye on them though to see if they do discount em before selling out >:)

  27. Fatique is an understatement. It could possibly even remain longer than is good for us. Pet Shop is ideal to use multiples of. To create an average line of houses in a modular street. I know there has been a call for this by legofans. Cause what does one do with a Grand Emporium without normal inhabitants? And where do these normal peeps live? T1 Camper Van has lost its shine in my opinion. It had to have retired a year ago at the latest. If it retires now... it will go up in value. No question. But it lost its potential of becoming a classic investment winner.

  38. To all of our Brickpicker customers, I hope that I can answer any and all questions and put any concerns to rest here. I will include photos of strip-style boxing for a different series at the bottom of this message. 1. In our many years of experience, strip-style boxes always receive the exact same 60 minifigures that a display box receives. 2. For those who are concerned that the box will have a different resale value, that simply has not been true in our experience either. A buyer's primary concern is that the box is factory sealed and contents are guaranteed. With this packaging, both of these concerns are still put to rest. This series has still received the highest demand of any series we have had yet, and we are still keeping our prices raised as we did because we know this packaging will not stall demand. 3. If anyone would like display packaging, we will be ordering that once we sell out of this shipment. However, we purchased enough to last until Halloween, so display boxes will not be sold in our store until Christmas time. I also want to note that our pre-order price will almost certainly not be offered again on this series. I hope to convey my sincerest apologies for this inconvenience. I know that consistency with the agreement is one of the important elements in a pre-order. However, I hope that I can also answer any questions and concerns here. We could have made the choice to reject the supply and send it back for the correct packaging, but because we know that timeliness is the most important factor in the pre-order, and the value would remain unchanged, the decision was made to accept the goods in the packaging our suppliers were given. Once again, all contents remain the same. The shipment date estimate remains unchanged. The value is unchanged. And most importantly, this is still the best series to invest in yet. Please DM or comment and I will do my best to answer any and all questions as soon as possible. Kind regards, Jon

  43. Regardless, it looks cool, I wanted one, so I have a couple. It will do ok, completists will want it, but don't expect an easy double. I actually think reviews and the literal sticker shock may have hurt this one.
