Saw this MOC somewhere on the web and thought it was great so decided to recreate it...

Silent Mary. Definitely not for everyone. Starts out as a mostly technic build. The hull is nice to build versus just putting together 5 solid pieces with a few technic pins in 30 seconds will have to see if the display of it grows on me. It is not a mirror symmetrical build so there are differences between the two sides. There are also "missing" pieces to give it that ghost ship appearance I think the only one I may have to add is the gold post that is part of the front railing. Not a fan of the breakaway mast and will probably mod that to be a little taller and fixed.

Please tell me your nickname was "boss" as a kid.

Don't mind me, I'm definitely not the droid you're looking for.

Found this inscription and numerous petroglyphs on a quick hike this morning. It's hard to read due to the bullet holes but I think it says G. F. Jarvis 1870. It's either George Frederick or George Franklin. They were early settlers in Southern Utah (and polygamists).

Little guy wanted some credit

I sold another Joker Steamroller this morning. Price isn't important. What is important is that now I'm down to only 41 left.

This was my thought process as well if I decide to do it. I'd use it as a way to move some slow sellers at a decent price for the buyer, while still making a little profit. I'd probably put a few high dollar items in there as well to attract some of the high end collectors in the area. My sale would be strictly LEGO only, so not really a yard sale per se. I'd advertise it as such as well. Advertising on all of the Craig's boards in the surrounding areas, as well as on local Facebook groups a week or two in advance should get the word out and hopefully generate some traffic. I'd also have it the same weekend that my neighborhood has its annual neighborhood sale as well to take advantage of that foot traffic. I think it would be kind of fun.

Just sold another one for $35. Local Facebook selling group. Down to 40!

Ordered One of my few day or release buys. Used VIP points and gift cards so only paid $35

Ah, gotcha, you're actually going to Ryan Adams

Ugh. Stupid autocorrect. Should be a good time. We've seen him now 5 or 6 times? We won the opportunity to meet him after the last show we were at. It was very cool.

Getting a couple of hours of adult discussion time tonight - talking the wife to another Bryan Adams concert.

My office for the week, stage build, day 1

i see all new sets avail @TRU website http://www.toysrus.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=35565536 and TRU eBay store...http://www.ebay.com/sch/LEGO/183447/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=&_ssn=toysrus&_sop=10 not sure about BM stores

That's crazy to me. I had to quit my Very Competitive Men's Soccer League because I couldn't walk for 2-3 days after a game and that was a year or so ago still in my mid 30's. But same reason I decided to hang it up was due to having to play against college aged men that could run circles around me and I just couldn't fly as fast as them anymore without needed a long breather. Slightly different sports with non-stop vs play by play, but overall still takes agility, stamina, and determination. I miss it, but at the same time, enjoy walking and going up steps without pain and with a straight back vs bent. Hell, just getting out of a chair would sometimes be very painful until I was able to get past a certain point with my back. I literally had to start off crawling to loosen up sometimes. Best of luck coming out of retirement. Jordan did it, I'm sure you can too.

Use more red brick. Share instructions. I have several Nether Fortresses I can part out.

Haven't seen any here, or across the border yet. Will post if spotted

Looks like in store too. I went to one of local targets and 20% off signs were there.

red 5, ewok selling for more than RRP just sayin

Today we had a family day out in London to visit the DC Heroes - Art of the Brick. The models were so impressive, definitely worth a visit for those that are local. Here are a few snaps:

Here it is. Box size about 175% of Snowglobe.

Nuff said

I went on a harry potter buying spree last month or so and finally built them. Yes, I do hoard them so I may buy the same sets over and over again.

Done, what a beast!

TMI

I didn't know we could post our own projects too! So here goes.. I've had a project on the site for a little over a year that's gotten a bit of attention in its early months.. but since then it's slowly dying. Basically what it is is a playset designed for one of the iconic games that is on a semi-known online game where people can build games for others to play! I haven't seen many set-like actual PLAYSETS with functions and stuff submitted or make it onto LEGO Ideas so I thought I'd give it a shot. I'd appreciate any support! Even if you don't like the base subject I hope you like the designs of the model itself and the minifigures Link: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/77042 Thanks!

When my closest KMART closed last year in the summer, there was ample choice at 40% and only Chima Speedorz left when they hit 50%. They also started tearing down all the shelving at that point. Luckily I had grabbed what I wanted at 40%.

Who is your wife going to talk to? Boom! That will be a good one. I've been wanting to see Hall and Oates for a long time and they're in Columbus with Tears for Fears tonight. I can't make it, but I'm tempted.

They've been doing that for about a year. Sometimes it's offered, sometimes not. It might just depend on what item/s you buy, or how the shipment is broken down.

Yep. Missed on the original but after seeing the reviews on this one I'm really excited to see just how well this one works. Thanks again for the QAR.

In my Targets, I've seen "new low prices" on microgifhters and battle packs. Last year's we're all 9.99. The website has them all at different prices.

Very sad, just saw Soundgarden about 2 weeks ago at Fox Theater down here

Longer than expected, but finally done!

I've been cleaning my home office throwing out old papers and came across these.. Too bad they weren't sealed, people buy them for like $20 for a 10 pack!

Basically Minecraft theme.

Don't worry it wasn't emazers, all my sets are mint in sealed never opened boxes, if I ever crack like that guy I will let everybody no. Ed

Oh, one more thing... to prove ownership, you should keep your receipts for tax purposes on investments, in the event you decide to do something in the future, like open a business, actually pay taxes on your investments (tongue in cheek), or something I can't even think of. But the best way to prove ownership is to regularly take video of your home and its items and keep the files online with a separate backup company like Carbonate. Again, talk to your insurance co to see what they require prior to assuming anything.

I did an article on this exact subject and have used the Collectibles Insurance Company LLC for my own collection. It's very simple: 1. Input all of your sets into the Brickfolio 2. Use the Export option to send an Excel file email with your entire collection to the above company 3. Fill out their form 4. Get a quote 5. Pay the bill 6. You are covered. It cost me $500 to insure $100,000, with a yearly bump up in coverage. It covers most issues. My homeowner's insurance company(Prudential) did not want to work with me. I hope I never have to use it.
