Hey moderators is there a way to have tabbyboys current feeling on this set replacing the poll at the top? Haven't been on in a minute so catching up on this and for a week every other page is a post from him saying how he's going to buy 3- 1 to open, 1 to keep, and 1 to sell after retirement to help pay for the others. A few hours ago he changed that to only buying 1. Then a couple hours ago he changed that to maybe buying none. Maybe his opinion could be on the ticker on the front page?

Finished Old Fishing Store, and it went perfectly on the mantle:

Opened my store the other day and heaven forbid, got an order. I'm set up for Paypal Onsite right now, I'm assuming it works just like someone sending you money through Paypal? I have used it on the buyer end, but obviously not the seller end. Still adding parts, but happy to be on the grid.

Finished the Silent Mary last night

75182 republic fighter tank , nice little set goes well with the gunship as seen here during a pre dawn raid

Finally got ahold of my most wanted set, now I can get to work on my Halloween display with HH, VC, all Scooby sets, and the Simpsons house going to make a cul du sac with them full of trick or treaters (every minifig I have that looks like a costume) PS: if you need two Chima clocks still in box, I've got a deal for you.

battle on scarif, rey's speeder are now sold out at us LEGO Shop at Home. assault on hoth has resurrected and is in backorder.

I hate people every day...Then some people surprise me and give me hope. On the missing pieces...now it really looks bad. LOL

Nah, and it would not make sense to do it either. People have the misconception that purchases with VIP points are free. No, they are not, you have already paid for those points. If you pay with those points, all it means is that you paid for the set in advance over time. Since if you buy a set from LEGO the price is this: cost of set + VIP points. With basic VIP, when you pay $20 for a set, what you actually do is that you buy a set for $19 and $1 worth of VIP points, which you can spend later. (You are actually depositing money at LEGO on which you do not earn any interest hahahha.)

Found a TMNT Lair for $10 at WM. Box beat to hell. All was there and my 4 yo was ecstatic.

So I took a local visit to the Lego store. Figured I'd post a few pics. Haven't had a chance to read through the thread but the Lego employee told me that essentially the new Lego VIP card will be given out with each Falcon purchase (New OR existing members) It will come with special promotions throughout the year focused primarily on Star Wars Legos. Your existing card and membership will still work. Kind of a cool concept.

Popped into the Galeria in Frankfurt city centre in between meetings whilst on a business trip. Saw this great life size moc of the Porsche 911

I agree. The finished product of the rear engine area is awful.

Who sells LEGO? I thought we were just supposed to horde it...

I'm waiting to pick this up with a discount at some point. It's just too expensive in my country to justify buying at RRP. This decision is not at all influenced by my wife.

Waiting for my neighbor to gift it to me.

I sold one last week at $175 to someone in Canada through Bricklink. Didn't want my second one selling too quickly

Bumble $3.25 x7 Batgirl $5 x5 Robin $3.50 x2 Wither $11 x2 Tie Fighter $35 x2

As George once said. "I'm going down with the ship." I bought a very nice used 1st edition 10179 a few years ago for $2500 because I had to have it. I'll wait to buy the 75192 at a discount or 2x VIP. When bought it will look great next to the 10179 whenever I get around to building either of them.

LOL, the first thing i thought of after watching the time lapse is that even a 350k piece set comes with friggin stickers!

it tells me u need a better resolution

I saw the box. Size is 53x46x38cms.

Yea, we're almost sold out!

Comparison

Finished Mirko's U-Wing. I think this rivals the Nebulon.

OMG HOLD ME. Leicester Sq. The display was opened for about 3 minutes to make some additional adjustments on the ship positioning, some Mutterficker sneaked from behind to steal both rear masts from the ship.

Too bad. It could have been the coolest part of the ship if done correctly with some light bricks and modern build techniques. I would have paid $1000.00 if they really made an effort here.

Starting to put some sets in order. I have a couple other small Christmas sets too.

Yeah Will that's the thing.... the issue is that it's a "display" piece if we were buying a "play" set it wouldn't matter One of Lego's biggest Positives over ANY other brick building manufacturer is their Translucent piece Quality they produce...it's clear, and when lit Properly the Product Sparkles and glimmers(which is why most lego store displays look so dang good, and a big part of why L3PiN bricks and others Suck) ...it's too bad really, to release this like they did and not take advantage of those 60 pieces of eye candy ...so I figure after this is bought...it doesn't look to hard to modify with a few 300 pieces or less....and that's a bare minimum to make it look as good as a 10179 rear Build.

I'm adding the poll from the When will you buy your first 75192 UCS Falcon? topic now.

Ebay bucks <$25 - 6%; >$25 - 8% (for those with the offer)

190€

When you say pick of the litter you mean you picked them all up I hope?

I had one at New Years, but it fell through.

Yeah, who doesn't remember the continuous production runs of Red 5, Pet Shop, etc... but with all the new movie releases and especially the compressed time frame between Episode 8 and the Han Solo film, they are going to have to do away with sets now to clear space. Think about it! The last jedi wave just hit... 3 more months, we got the winter wave coming that has about 15 sets. Then a few months after that is the Han Solo movie wave of 5 sets. Are they going to ramp up production runs on sets from Rogue One, the Force Friday Force Awakens wave, or the old winter waves from 2016? No.

This showed up today.

there are bigger badder things on my list that my VIP must go towards....

Space.com has this cool timeline overview of the key Millennium Falcon sets (likely provided by LEGO based on the logo of the MF on the left):

Bought a 90% complete 10178 Motorized AT-AT a few weeks ago for $80 locally. After 2 Bricklink orders totalling about $20, I've got this baby complete and walking again. Only missing the General Veers fig now. Such an awesome set!

I'm glad I never went down the Bricklinking road I considered.

Yeah, at this point they seem to have all the investment possibilities of opened Chima Fire Bikes.

Yep, def picking up one of these to sit next to my R2-D2.

knope.

When is gets a discount, that will be the sign.
