  4. My son and wife finished building Indominous Rex Breakout from Santa and I completed Brick Bank to go with our other modulars. I think I'm going to have to buy another unit to be able to fit Assembly Square on though.

  13. Amazon buyers generally have higher incomes and value convenience and their time and are not primarily concerned with prices (they only discriminate based on prices on the platform). Not every Amazon buyer is like this, but the vast majority of FBA members fit into this category. If you have more money than time, and Alexa, you simply don't care about ebay. There are also plenty of amazon sellers who will never understand the pool of customers they are marketing to and will drop prices below ebay prices - wait them out for the big profits.

  15. I do agree that the new versions of the Burj and this set make the old ones look amateurish. SO, that's one thing going for it.. .but I also agree with Waddamon that there are so many architectural marvels out there they could focus on. Right now they are just rehashing stuff we've already seen. The guggenheim didn't really need a remake, nor did the burj. They could have moved on to other buildings, because there's only about a million to choose from.

  16. yup. i sold my 2 75054s because prices are getting bloated for a vehicle that has been remade many times. i saw nothing special about this set compared to my motprized 10178 and 8129. pic from eurobricks edited by me. note: 10178 isn't standing up straight so it appears shorter. link for more details = http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/search.cfm?searchterm=at-at&sort=set_pieces&order=desc here's more at-at comparison pics. see the pic above to know which at-at is which lego set. http://brickset.com/article/12296/review-75054-at-at

  22. Slave 1 was also discounted in the TRU.com BOGO 40% in may 2015... Not really official either but available to all who were around before the poofed. But yes I would expect more discounts on Slave 1 once it gets closer to EOL (when ever that is...)

  23. Not a deal: Kmart has a lot of new sets on their website and they may be prime for SYW points use and accumulation.

  25. So that pretty much does it for the Architectural line. By the way, aesthetically, the new design sucks. The previous classic white/black one had class - I am not sure what this one is trying to do.

  29. You did mean to say a bunch of badly overpriced sets in this wave, right, right? Can't believe how little bang for your buck there is on most of these sets. The Battle on Scarif has to be one of the biggest jokes out there, €60 for 419 pieces and 4 minifigures, only 2 of which are important to the movie. The A-Wing for €50, really, are people really going to pay that just to get Lando. The only set that looks worth getting when you see them on the shelves is the Y-Wing, it looks like a proper set, in a decent size box. This is the biggest threat to the secondary market, over priced, under sized sets, with Lego messing up things so badly with their own business that people will stop buying Lego for their kids, whether on the primary or secondary market. Rant over.

  31. Rule of profit is you haven't made jack until you sell. So holding equals a zero return until sold. If I had a hundred I could see waiting a bit, if I have 3, that is 75-100 dollars difference, who cares, you won, take your gains and move to the next. The big sets have a strong trend line, despite a flat or small down year. Hold the line on those knowing small risk of Lego remaking. Seller count goes down, supply goes down, prices start moving up. Patience and also not being too greedy, just a little.

  33. Dinosaurs are just a popular theme, and I think this theme was very popular over the 2 years it was out. It's unknown if Lego group will get the license for JW2, but that's going to be a tell tale sign on how far these can go. Regardless, I think all these sets will at least double by next christmas. Plus, the amount of people holding stock has dropped in half compared to last year, so many dumped their stock and got out.

  36. To you veteran Lego fans out there it may not seem like much, but to a 4-year-old these Legos are everything! Finally, we were able to get him sets he could put together himself; they are all he has been playing with. I am only aware of this site because of the generosity you showed St. Pauls last year. I know it has already been said, but thank you for your donations. I look forward to following the rally this year! Any help you can give is absolutely appreciated. On a side note - I brought our family to a train show in Bordentown, NJ. On display was a wicked Lego train setup. It was just awesome. Of course the 4-year-old train enthusiast still can't stop talking about it. I have a feeling I will definitely be using this site in the future to find the best prices on those sets ?

COLORED text is reserved for the Moderators: To help with the readability of the forums, please do not use colored text - it is reserved for use by the Forums moderators. NO NECROPOSTING: If a thread has not had a new post in several months, do not post in that thread. This is called "necroposting" and is disruptive to the community as it takes focus away from newer, more active threads. The only exception to this rule is when you want to post strong support for an item in one of the Suggestions forums or you think that an older topic is relevant to today's topics. MEMBER NAMES AND AVATARS: All member names and avatars must be tasteful and acceptable to all members, young and old. If you think something could be interpreted in a sexual, perverse, or obscene way...DO NOT USE IT! You will be asked to change it. If you fail to do so, you possible could be banned from the site. Use common sense here...please. AVOID CONTENT FREE POSTS: Posting a "+1", or "me too", or simply quoting a previous post with no original content or discussion is to be discouraged. Use the green "Vote up this post" reputation button if you agree with something a member has posted. Better yet, add some of your own thoughts to the discussion. SEARCH BEFORE YOU POST: Try to search for a topic before creating a new thread to see if it already has an active discussion. Take notice of the "Similar Topics" list that pops up after entering your Topic Title. Do we really need another B-wing thread?

NO OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE or OBSCENE CONTENT: Posts containing offensive language or vulgar videos and pictures will be deleted. Let's keep the forum rated PG. NO ADVERTISING: Most BrickPickers have items to sell, but the forum is not the place to advertise them. Brick Classifieds is being developed to buy, sell and trade sets and there spots on the site which you can purchase advertising space for personal stores and the like. NO DOUBLE POSTING: If you've already posted a message, and no other users have posted one after you, do not post again! This is called 'Double Posting'. Simply edit your current post, and add on to it. Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it soon enough. POSTS MUST BE READABLE: If you like to write your posts in the style of a text message (no capitalization or punctuation) your posts will probably be deleted.

Members who receive one get two BrickPoints and one Reputation point. Most of all...Just BE NICE! There are plenty of ways to phrase something that is not confrontational or volatile in nature. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Sometimes it is difficult to read your intentions and tone through written words.

  44. this is a set to hold for years after EOL. after they have released a bunch of the serie. Youll see the price of the 1-2 rise up and the 3rd too but not has much... This will be gold if retires after a 2 years maybe and a half and they release a new car every year. Higly collectible. A bit overpriced.. but prenium box and maybe a costly licence too, and i think theyll get new exclusif wheel at each models. The way they packet it, it wont be see else where(mags)
