  1. Not so much what I bought today but I did a trade with[mention=69275]Wolvergeek[/mention] and it just came in the mail! Idk about the rest of you but I think this is "the set" for me. What I mean by that is about 2 years ago I was in the mall and passed the lego store. I saw this on display and thought it was super cool! After a trip to legoland with the nieces and nephews I was "awakened". I credit this set to my awakening and honestly if it wasn't for this set I doubt I would be here much less have allllll the lego I have now. When I decided it was "ok" to buy a 400 dollar lego set it was retired and going for 600 on eBay. So I passed and was just going to wait for the right time. Well thanks to wolvergeek I was able to get one! He is a great brickpicker and if you ever do a trade with him you're in good hands! Thanks again and thanks to this great community we have here!!

  2. Checked the 99cent Only store by my house yesterday and they had nothing so today on my lunch I stopped by the one by my work and scored these...

  3. Bought 2 a while ago when they were -40%, built them, and modded them. Raised the arc by 2 1/3 to fit a train through, raised the pilars by 3, and took out all the moving parts. Shortened it to 80 studs to fit well into a Lego town, train running in between the modular houses (Pet shop works well here at 16 wide)

  4. This list is complete garbage. The Advent calendar was already leaked, and it showed BB8 with a Santa Hat on a snowboard. Also, brickset has already listed the set numbers and many of these would not fit the list. This is just the conjuring of some fan boys (sounds like a millennial that grew up with the prequels) wet lego dream..

  9. U all with those 99cent Legos are lucky. If not for investment, those make for great party favors. Those cop minifigs can be used for an awesome custom battalion. Just got to be imaginative.

  13. Haha, I bought one. The funny thing is the listing has "make offer". I offered $5, rejected. $6, rejected. $6.50 rejected. So what was the offer, $6.98?

  17. You need to stop with the constant negativity... Come on, Sea Cow, Emmets Mech, and the DD Couch are 3 sets from the Lego Movie that are going to rise in value. It may take some time, but as more lego films come out, people are going to start having cravings for some of the older sets. For the record, the Sea Cow is not heavily hoarded compared to many other sets out there that retired around the same time. It's going to do superwell, once more lego films come out. Just watch.

  19. When there are over 1000 in each of larger stores there is only so much one can accumulate. smaller stores seems to have received 6 cases (36 ) each of 71213 bad cop, 71202 homer, 71223 cragger, 71211 bart, 71206 scooby total 30 cases. Haven't seen the unikitty around here while larger stores seems to have received about 54 cases of each. Of these 71206 seems to be the first one accumulated by folks. i can't seem to find any. there are tons of 71213 bad cop, 71223 cragger and 71211 bart in my neck of woods. Any body wants them let me know. I am going to go shopping tomorrow

  20. Was messaging a customer about an item that I shipped and saw a Simpsons level pack in my suggestions. Clicked on it and checked for lowest price for it (price + shipping). Tons of listings. Cheapest at the moment is $6.99 (free shipping). Seller has 310 of them. Just a thought for those that want to unload a few at a decent price (now before even more list them).. would auction be the best way to list a few? For the common customer that doesn't realize that tons of selllers are buying them for $0.99 (knowing that they cost $25 and up in most stores) they would most likely continue the bidding past $12 or if lucky $15? Maybe? Just a suggestion. With only $0.99 invested auction maybe the way to go on a few if listed quickly. Customers often see auctions ending and start bidding in the last few hours (especially if they think they are getting a deal... below $20... and reacting quickly without checking "buy now" listings? Again.. just a suggestion. I'm on the East Coast and don't have this deal.. .so I don't have any to list this way (just in case anyone is wondering)

  25. LOTR Legos are like a passion project... I own far more of this set & this theme than I should... mostly because I personally would have pulled a contract hit to get these when I was age 9 thru 11. My new fantasy outcome has The Silmarillion release helping my favorite Lego theme of all time finally get its due...

  26. Finished up the At-At 75054 set last night with the kids. We picked it up on CL for $80 and brick linked the 6 or 7 pieces that were missing. The finished product is great, but we are definitely going to sell this one and keep the Motorized 10178 version that we picked up at a yard sale and built last year. Seems like Lego isn't planning on releasing another At-At in the next SW wave, so hopefully it will sell well. For comparison, the new version is a little taller than the motorized one, but not quite as substantial in the body (as you would expect since the 10178 has to house the motor). I like the look of the older one better, but they are both great. I wish Lego would release more motorized sets in the SW theme.

  28. If sites like makingstarwars.net picks it up, then I would believe some of it. The leaked early ep 7 scripts were accurate enough (based on the Art of Ep 7 book. E.g. Flying hand in space) until the major rewrites by JJ after his dream visit to Kamino about cloning existing SW scripts

  31. Just imagine the discussion by Lego... Do you think Santa BB-8 will go over well with the kids for the star wars advent this year? Nah, lets go with Santa Tarkin, Kids love Moffs

  32. If it looks like the shuttle from episode 3 I don't think it will make a HUGE dent in the IST. To real fans (ones that will pay the 100+) they know the difference. If it's episode 6 shuttle...yeah we are in trouble. I don't see them doing that but nothing really would shock me at this point. Seeing A wings almost weekly....x wings...all types of wings Edit: I looked again yeah that's going to be OT. What's his face wasn't in episode 3. Didn't Vader choke him in 5?

  33. I can't believe anyone would leave any of these on the shelf. $100 and 6 months gives you 100-200% profit, if not more.

  38. How about the fact that the lowest amazon is currently 435 shipped, and you only have to go to the 11th price point (1st offer on page 2) to hit 499.99 or 2 HUNDRED dollars over retail. This one is BLAZING out of the gates. Love it. How are European markets reacting to this one. Is it totally dried up for you guys? How is demand?

  39. Man I wish we had $.99 stores around here. Not sure how many I would buy for resale but these would be great for party favors and hitting the Amazon FBM numbers next October. It seems like the real winners should be Scooby Doo, Portal, and Unikitty based on stock reports.

  40. That is a genuine Lego set. Period.

  41. Exactly. Lego has released around 30 SW sets every year for the past 2 years and we already have around 20 confirmed sets with numbers for 2017. Expect between 6 and 10 more sets for September release and a couple of large exclusives but that´s it.

  42. Star Wars set 8038 Battle of Endor. This is a great set, I like the building process a lot. The colors of the bricks are fascinating, it gives the set a great look. A must-have for Original Trilogy fans. In the future I would like to set it up for display with 75094 IST and Ewok Village. The folding of the building is not very solid and the walking mechanism of the vehicle is a bit odd. But these are my only negative comments.
