$3 DB on time to win sweep....

Time to Win - DB - Code: Bouqu3ts

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but spotted this on eb:

Bite your tongue. I want an Egghead minifig with his mech.

The Batsignal actually works!

Who is ready to not see the UCS Falcon tomorrow?

The Lego Batman Movie sets marked down again at Costco: 70905 The Batmobile: $29.99, 50% off retail ( as mentioned yesterday by @justapilgrim ) 70901 Mr. Freeze Ice Attack: $6.99, 70% off retail 70902 The Catwoman Catcycle Chase: $6.99, 70% off retail This is YMMV as they are just clearing out what they still have left from the shipment they got a couple of months ago.

41176 the secret marketplace. This is the one with the green dragon. It disappeared first from what I remember. It was clearanced around me for $30 before Christmas. Only picked up one thinking it was too early for it to retire. Oops. 41178 dragon sanctuary, the purple dragon one. I don't think I ever saw this one clearanced, it just disappeared during Christmastime and never came back. I did end up getting a bunch at a closing Kmart for about $30 each. I got excited when the price shot to $80+ and sold one then. Then another at $100, and a couple at $125. Now I have one left that I have listed at $150, which has got to be about as high as it will go right? I also let my wife open and build one because she likes the elves line....this was before the price went up. A couple reasons I think this one does better than the secret market place, besides maybe that it's more rare, is the color of the dragon and the build itself. There's already another elves set with a green dragon. This is the only purple one. And for anyone collecting all the dragon sets , this ones main build is a tower thing that has a spot for each of the different dragon eggs.

Down to 39! Bricklink...$51 shipped. These steam rollers are picking up steam!

You could post this all day long and no one reads it...

If it's not a big seller (TRU, Target, etc.), ask them to revise their price.

Some of us act as their warehouses, storing their sets in return for a discounted price, until the Christmas season.

Any set I do not posses will do great.

Nobody said he does not occasionally venture out for supplies in disguise.

I was going to ask where in the world they still have B&N stock like that, but your user name clearly explains it. Some Pringles trivia for the rest of us: Invented in Ohio The guy who invented the can was so proud of it he asked to be buried in a big one Pringles don't actually contain enough Potato to be called Potato Chips That's thoroughly disturbing.

Those guys made OPEC seem like a fair trade organisation the way they manipulated the market. Travel to another city and you´d be able to swap all your duds to complete the collection in a heartbeat.

Probably frustrated at the lack of deals!

Speed build if anyone's interested

Corner Deli might be available for some folks via local pick-up from Wal-Mart for $15. https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-LEGO-Creator-Corner-Deli-31050/47335723

Until I put up some suitable shelving the only place I can display this is in my office. Anyway I've finished the fleet. "Send the fleet to the far side of Endor.... there it will stay until called for"

Not great pictures, but they gives you an idea. I built this with my two boys.

Everyone wants to see **** slide down the Batpole. Right? Anyone?

Some of these sets are rare, some were discounted by SAH for months. There also seems to be susbtantial geographical disparity in distribution - a bit like those Panini sticker albums where everyone in the same area had the same doubles.

A friend of mine is thinking about offering his exceptional cognitive abilities (= member of Mensa = higher IQ than 98 % of the population) on a "pay-per-advice" basis to anyone having a problem/question he or she just cannot make a decision or is clueless about. 1) What would you ask someone like him/her? 2) What would you be willing to pay for a single advice? 3) Do "services" like this already exist (not counting fortunetellers or suicide hotlines) thx

Sounds like he shops at JEDIs R Us.

Something is mentioned here that might give a clue. Spoilers if you click through... http://www.eonline.com/news/856726/star-wars-the-last-jedi-5-movie-secrets-revealed-in-vanity-fair

Comes out next month or august?

I was about to say the same thing. It's on the Russian Lego homepage.

You know what they say about small thumbs...........

In for three. Woof! Woof!

Here is one I built myself (now up on Lego Ideas so please support it):

That's the first official banner figure right?

This thing is solid. Cannot wait to get my hands on it - my son and I will have a great time building this .... New Elementary Parts and Build Review is up, which is where the picture is from.

Dang it! You're right. It is $130. Amazon shows RRP as $150. Put the brakes on this one!

I thought the retail price was 129.99

Has anybody tried to make a bigger batsuit holding system with these. My son wants all his batman suits on there but I'm wondering what's an efficient way of going about it. Thanks

Well, my son is going to crap his pants for this one.

I've noticed a trend selling on eBay, the more questions a buyer asks, the more likely they are to be a pain in my backside after the sale is complete. Just like a funko buyer "can you please pick the best box you have to send? Box condition is very important to me." Nope, buy from someone else.

One scam I'm seeing a lot on eBay lately (then again, maybe it's old news... I don't shop on eBay a lot)... I see hijacked accounts run dozens of auctions for $100 - $300 items - sometimes Lego, sometimes game consoles... whatever - all the auctions will end on the same day, at the same time. Clearly the seller is looking to collect what he can on that day, and scoot before Paypal figures it out. For the most part, pretty easy to spot: items always are stock photos from the web. Whenever you see a Lego Sandcrawler on auction with a stock photo, for example, just click on "See other items" from the same seller. You'll often find 15 or 50 other auctions ending exactly the same time... that plus seller history showing they haven't sold anything in a year = scammer.

Our retail is $400 mind you.

I'm glad I didn't buy the first Batmobile for my son just yet, because this version is definitely screaming for his birthday present. That set is lego creativity at its finest.

I won't put the picture here, but I will post the link. For those of you that know (or don't know), Starfire, in 80's, had a relationship with Dick. She and Dick broke up. Here was her reaction. Starfire loves...

There are several other characters I will use this sticker for.

two 75052 complete sets or batmobiles? i like the set. just don't like the cost. if i do ever buy the set, it will be from amazon w/ major reward points stocked up to create my own discount

Until that Batmobile starts selling that set.
