STAR WARS sets are far less risky than any Super Hero set, this side of The Tumbler. For the most part, the most valuable STAR WARS sets are based on vehicles, while successful Super Hero sets (with exception of Tumbler) are valuable because of their figures. Maybe you should build a few and you will see the difference. As for my completely incorrect logic...You think you have this all figured out, but you really have no clue. You think you are Spock, only dealing with logic and numbers. LEGO is more than logic. It is a passion and creative force unlike any Amiibo, baseball card or Beanie Baby. It's sad that I cannot teach you these things. You either get it or you don't. You can make money off of logic, but when push comes to shove, the person who "gets it" will have a distinct advantage over those who don't. This applies to any collectible or item that is resold. I have seen people like you on this forum before and you treat it as a commodity, with really no respect for the product itself. Next year, you will be on the next forum, discussing the next hot trends in collectibles, but never really appreciating the collectible being discussed. Until you accept the fact that emotion plays a huge part in the LEGO world, you will never truly understand the opinions of many on this site.14 points

Finally feel like I got a sweet deal...Got the Empire State Building for $10, which took me 10 mins to build and now joins his friends in the office. Then as we're arranging a place to meet up (did this deal via letgo) I asked if she had any other sets, so she said she had 2 more. Only one worth discussing. 4954 Creator Townhouse. Got that used/complete/no box for $40. $50 total and I am a happy camper. Can't wait to build that townhouse.7 points

That's why I operate my own in-house LEGO store where my kids can buy their favorite sets (prepopulated based on catalog reviews, wishlists and store visits) at discount prices.5 points

Hopefully this means we'll get a Bizarro and Doomsday figure in 2017. I would hate to think that these are the only versions of those characters coming for mass release.2 points

I've got an emotion for him, but the forum censors block most of it. I gave up discussing things with him since he's only interested in his opinion. 2017 and the next fad can't come soon enough.2 points

I actually just finished building a bricklinked 10179 in Bley with some black accents. I didn't just go for bley because new bley parts are more available, I wanted to also stock up on bley to build more star ships, etc. once I take the 10179 apart. The entire inside of the ship uses wahtever bricks I had in any color. It's not as if the lego designers made the perfect pick for every bit on the real ship - so why should I. Having a good looking ship IMO is more important than having the exact parts, since I am not planning to sell or collect this. I already had about 15% of the bricks, bought another 80% new, and about 5% used parts on bricklink and the Lego store. In Europe the total cost ended up being about 900 Euros.

UCS Slave 1. I'm 41. I was all G.I Joe and Transformers when I was a kid. The funny thing is I'm going to pick up all my old toys from my parents basement this weekend and I'm going to sell them to pay for my newly acquired Lego habit. I figure there's no better time to sell that GI Joe and Transformer stuff, I know guys in their 40s will buy stuff like that, but I can't see guys in their 50s or 60s buying a bunch of old toys. I have a ton of figures and a lot of the bigger vehicles. I used all my allowance and every other penny I earned doing odd jobs on smaller vehicles and Transformers and then all I asked for for birthdays and Xmas from 6 years was the planes and bases, etc. Unfortunately my parents weren't nuts, so the aircraft carrier isn't one of them.2 points

Had 3 delivered today, sourced from an Ontario warehouse. 21S5, shipped in original Lego carton. I tried the stock trick when I ordered. They had more than 1200 in stock if the trick still works...2 points

Death Star 10188 on eBay for...well, let's just say a tolerable markup over RRP. Comes in the original shipping box from Lego, so there's that. My dark ages unfortunately spanned the entire time that this set was available at stores, so it was this way or no way. This one is for my personal use. I now have DS, SC, EV, IST, and a few smaller sets in the pile to build! I thought about waiting until the new rumored Death Star comes out later this year, but part of me is really afraid that it's going to turn out to be Starkiller Base- ugh!1 point

Exactly what I was going for! Car free pedestrian walkway I will add some 200 minifigures to this to give it a 'busy' street feel like the 'Kalverstraat' in Amsterdam1 point

Built the Brick Bank today, took about 6 hours. While I wish the overall set was taller it does match up nicely next to the Detective's Office and PR. The mini builds of the safe and the washing machines were excellent and the white and sand green elements really compliment each other. Overall would rate it a solid B+1 point

I got a used one for $70 I was satisfied with that. I just never pulled the trigger when it was in stores. Now if I could find a cheap 75019 to go with it.1 point

Yes it will be cheaper w/o the minifigs plus you will prob be able to reduced postage. All the figs can be purchased for about $25 but the prob is that no sells all of them together the last time I checked. This might be one of the sets where purchasing the majority of elements from Lego will make sense due to free postage and if you have VIP pts.1 point
