I finished my Tantive IV 10198, and it exceeded my expectations. I have had my eyes open for a good deal on a Rebel Blockade Runner 10019, but haven't come across one at a price that I can stomach yet. In the meantime, this set was awesome. If you have one and are thinking about building it or if you have been thinking about getting one, I highly recommend it!

Holy cow this is ugly

Meijer 50% off clearance - GO Enjoy your work day...

Built the min R2 to go with Leia. Two great little builds. Will now MOC up the corridor to recreate the scene in the Tantive IV.

About 6k worth of lego for ~2.2k

Two different Meijer stores in Kentucky (50% off already clearance toys.. most were 15% off and then 50% off that). Everything here for $839.43. So glad I checked both stores today (and as early as I did).

a month and a half ago.

Good idea, I will cut out the Rolex ad from the Financial Times and tie it around my wrist. I bet nobody will notice.

You know you have been in BP too long when you look at that pic and the first thing that comes up in your head is SYW points sweep

Just bought out two Meijer stores.......spend just over 450........bought about 1600 worth of retail lego.....god bless america Interesting set selections.......my Mejier(s) stores didnt have a lot of the same sets on clearance that yours did.....I wonder how they select which ones to clearance out and where....

So you're saying he buys his underwear at Kmart? PS

Speaking of where is @Phil B

I just bought this "6211 Imperial Star Destroyer" for $200 CAD shipped....I don't think it comes with instructions, otherwise they'd have known.... but still! I'm a little bit giddy right now.

Denny's Spaceship, Spaceship, Spaceship!!! ?

I'd have said hot chocolate mug, but I guess the Friends are growing up.. they're now drinking wine after a long day on the slopes.

My thoughts too. I'm surprised they gotten away with the polybag of individual minifigs (Red Arm C3PO, Yuleran, Revan, etc) other than they've always been giveaways and not for sale. It's my own opinion that, even though these are also giveaways, they are pushing the limits to see what they can get away with. If they can get away with these, then perhaps they've figured out a lower cost way of doing a minifigure series for SW that isn't in violation of the existing licensing agreements.

Tent in a poly bag is awesome

A paper-built Christmas tree! Why use LEGO when you can use a PICTURE of LEGO?!

What colour is that part meant to be? Edit: answered my own question. Light grey. In the first instance I'd be tempted to contact the seller and just check to see if he has found that piece. Otherwise replace with dbg version with replacement sticker and just make that clear when you advertise for sale. Someone looking to complete their Star Wars UCS display may not care too much about 1 piece and sticker being a substitution as it doesn't take away from the display value. If someone has to have it 100% correct then they can choose to find and buy that part. Still a bargain buy imho and plenty of meat left on the bone for resale.

I'd be selling for cash at $175 all day long.

By "done the job" you mean another production run due to false demand or perhaps shipping some more over to the USA from the EU were they are smart enough not to buy this turd of a set. I wanted to pull the trigger on one for my personal collection but after rewatching this review couldn't do it even with 20% off and 2X VIP and promo. This will be an interesting set to watch EOL not sure which will do better it or my Mega Blocks Enterprise.

Where is the rest of it?

The bat shuttle would be cool, especially with a light up brick! Careful though, we all know what happens when too many rumors are started. LEGO is watching you!

You finally cleared them out? I was surprised to see them there last week. Did you get the two I hit behind the Nexo knights?

Oh wow, see the real thing! http://www.qaronline.org/

Need a ton of jungle campsite

Appreciate the concern, still alive and kicking but superduper busy.... BP is taking a backseat....

Connector pin = series. (imho)

Probably doing his 1 hour a day SYW Sweeps run

Thx, Got $5 and a few nickels.....tomorrow, back to my regularly scheduled 15 cents a day.

$5 Wild wins NOW Although I got zip

Picked this up from the same guy I got the other ucs sets from. It was on hold when I picked up the others but the guy no showed. Paid $200, not a steal but still solid. Seems to be missing a few bits though. I may tear this one down and rebuild it, should be a fun one.

Over the past few days I have had a lot of luck buying on CL. After losing out on one Black Pearl, I found another used one for $130 that is complete with all of the minifigures (no instructions), for investment. The Joshamee Gibbs minifigure is missing his hair, another victim of male pattern baldness no doubt. I will get new hair for him. Last night I got a used 75055 Imperial Star Destroyer complete with all the minfigures and instructions for $55. I have always wanted this one for my personal collection! The Darth Vader minifigure has one white arm with a black hand for some reason. The pieces came separated into numbered bags according to the instructions. The emperor hologram is definitely in bag 3! In both cases the mother and her son were both very happy with the money they got. It was a win, win scenario for everybody. I will admit that I am envious of the awesome finds that many members post here, and now I get to post two of my own.

River Wheel

Meh

Shopko has a 5/25 10/50 coupon out. Pairs nicely with some clearance

Is that a new hair piece for Kai? Hard to tell with the shadows, but reminds me of DBZ. Ski girl should have a coffee mug, not a gold chalice, imo.

I've said it before, I really dislike this new format. Managed to spin 3 out of 4 promos today (somehow missed the 9am one) on 2 accounts and got exactly $0. I'm starting to wish the imminent bankrupcy rumors are true - it would save me an hour a day from fruitlessly trying different sweeps......

The Lone Ranger was a decent theme. Definitely under appreciated in my opinion
