The Trailer!

Last summer I brought my old 90s Pirates sets down to the beach to assemble with the goal of selling them. Unsurprisingly, I fell back in love with them, and before I left the I'd ordered a Brick Bounty to fulfill my childhood dream of owning a Pirate Ship. It only seemed appropriate to wait until I was back at the beach this week to assemble it. Not without flaws, but a great set!

I've had enough of the heat and decided to open this one up. I can tell it'll be a fun build! Step 1 of 14 complete...

just wait for TRU to follow suit and reduce price to $129,99

We should make CL ads with just this pic

Here's a screen shot from the trailer... You can sort of make out a pink Batsuit with a tutu. And then this pic has been circulating of a prototype part...

Sorry, but your post was begging for this response

I hope we'll get some of the batsuits shown (The Batriot, St Batricks, Merbat, Glam Bat, The Bat Pack...) in LEGO form.

Lego riddler, Cuz I am always asking yall dumb questions

For those of you who saw my other post, sorry for the repeat. For those who didn't, I picked up a box at an "Estate Sale" (where the resident and her mother were very much alive) for $80. It has a complete Cafe Corner modular (was missing four small pieces) and what looks like a complete 5526 Skyline. Massive thanks to @jgschmieg3 and @Alpinemaps for identifying the two sets from a pic last night with a part of one instruction page from the CC and a couple partially built sections of the skyline. Also from a CL post, I picked up a used, but supposedly complete Simpsons House for $100. Haven't dug into it yet, I was a little distracted by the CC. I've seen so many posts with great finds and I've lost out on two online charity auctions lately, one with a Black Pearl and one with a UCS ISD and a UCS IST, so it felt good to get a win. I've always said I'm in this to finance my Lego building/collecting habit, so I may offer the CC up for trades for a package of sets I want for my collection like the GBHQ, Sandcrawler, and UCS Red 5.

And here it is.

Pretty cool, I remember when this happened with the B-Wing.

Sold my last Iron Patriot on BL yesterday for $30. It had been sitting there for several months and only a few weeks ago I created an EBay listing for the same polybag and settled for a $25 rate w/ free shipping just to be competitive. Glad that one didn't sell

LEGO is not THAT stupid. Why give away the goods for $3.99 each when they can sell 3 + a few bricks for $60 ????

Sounds like: we need a movie mini figure line! Just imagine... blind bags of differet bat-suits... fun fun Good luck smooshing through those...

Now "Justice League"!!!

3 x high speed passenger train 60051 for total of $270, local deal.

This got posted to the wrong thread, so I've moved it here. I believe this is the issue that @ckBricks was talking about earlier.

I went to Walmart this morning that was showing $25 tydiriums and couple other equally awesome deals (with isle locations) but I didnt find anything, then I stopped at two different Five Below stores to get some awesome dimension fun packs for $5 but all they had was ninjago and the-movie ones so I passed, stopped at a TRU store but I didn't find anything interesting there either, grocery store was next....now it's barbecue time!!!!!

Word!

I will never understand the people that post pics of Lego they wanna sell. How about inside the containers. Hey, here's a pic of the closet they're in or a pic of the house they're in. [emoji849]

Loved when the first 2 images that google showed when you searched "May 4th" was my shifter and your Pacino. Bet there were more than a few confused people.

Yeah, I could see this. 1/3 of the sets are City, which would be a grind to sell. Looking at some of the Star Wars that I can make out, it would be a lot of work for profiting off of used sets. No guarantees of complete sets. hmmmmm......probably gonna stick with new sets. Thanks for the input everyone.

I am still curious...where and when are these birds migrating from???

Was your post even necessary then? You came on here and your quote is "the pricing for the US retailers stock tracker is garbage". Was that necessary instead of asking a mature and helpful post like... "Hey guys, I noticed that on the Walmart listings for the Stock Tracker, that the pricing sometimes jumps from here to on the following listing. Is that a glitch or something going with Walmart, whenever you get a chance please take a look" In one post, you could help describe what page is having a possible issue, what to look for and how often you see it happen. That is helpful. Your post was garbage.

They could easily make a "Batman's closet" set featuring several versions of the cotumes

I'm watching "Gremlins" this morning.

"Where I'm from that's called slavery!"

13% auf diversen Galeria Lego (Creator, SW, Ideas) und mit AFFGKEM0716 Gutschein nochmals 11% dazu.

These were probably buried under all the Birds sets they just unloaded. Maybe they'll stumble on some Robie Houses.

Lol, I've said it before, I'll say it again:

Wow! This trailer exceeded my expectations!

Now that I think about it, Exciter1's original avatar brings up a good question. .....Are Stormtroopers a bad aim at everything?

Made a Lego lake house at my father in law's real lake house. No real moose though...

<---- Mine's Donald J. Trump. Also, I flip studs.

Just finished my UCS Falcon.. took much longer than expected (mainly just to sort and FIND the pieces needed for each step) but worth it. It's bigger even than anticipated but also "loose" in areas. Having built nearly every other large Star Wars ship, the top panels don't secure the way I expected. Either way, it's an icon for a reason.

Well...I finally found all the pieces...a couple off color but still looks amazing I think. It took my son and I 7 hours with 3 slight rebuilds until we got the balance right. Yes, it is tricky getting it to stand! Let me know what you all think. #legodad

In this case, the white brick is an interior color/trim part which also adds some structural strength to the inner wall. Could they have made it orange as well? Sure, but then there would be less detail on the inside. Considering that the Modulars are meant to be placed next to one another, most would never care or notice. This is not an error, but a choice by the designer. Many LEGO sets have similar situations in which there is no perfect solution.

One thing to keep in mind about that set, the plane makes up the majority of the value. If you make a play for this, make sure the plane is included.

Mega Bloks was originally a privately held Canadian company but it was bought by Mattel in 2014. I think the parent company made some changes which resulted in the improved quality. Ed might still remember the old days...

Just realized Batgirl is definitely a woman of color! Great to see diversity. I already new that Rosario Dawson was voicing her but it was still up in the air how she'd be represented on screen.

Lego Darth Revan cos he's awesome

"Patience Iago, patience."

Today I built a custom display shelf for my Toy Story Minifigures! Whilst getting the sets out of storage I built some with my son. Enjoy the pics!

Today was a special build, as last year I retrieved all my childhood LEGO from my parent's place. And since then have been sorting it here and there. Well I finally finished sorting and it was time to inventory and build a set :D! Pulling parts according to the inventory list (Peeron) Building the 6879 Blizzard Baron from the Ice Planet 2002 space theme (notice the LEGO man supervising as they do in all my builds). So 1st set is 100% complete and ready for cleaning, bunches more to go! I have to say I have built many sets from my childhood in recent years and while they have been nostalgic and fun. This is a whole new level when you are handling the very same bricks that occupied countless hours of your childhood. Its a powerful feeling almost like handling sacred relics from the past. It strikes me on such a deep level that these bricks I loved through the 1990's are still going strong and a brand new brick would seamlessly fit anywhere on this set. A true testament to the outstanding power of LEGO and the wonderful worlds it creates. I am so very thankful to have most of my childhood LEGO intact and that neither me nor my parents ever got rid of these precious bricks during my ~12 years in the dark ages.

wow....someone must of had a real bad day to start this topic.......
