After spending most of the year bricklinking the Barad Dur, it's finally done with a few modifications, it stands 45 inches tall. Thanks to Kevin at BrickStruct for creating the instructions. The model still needs a couple of mods that I will do when I have room to display it.

75173 Luke's Landspeeder is such a hot seller that it is important that 2 more be on the market. How could it possibly fail? I'm excited for them release "Mos Eisley Cantina Parking Garage" - Overflow parking for all your landspeeders!

So now we know that George and Jerry were the ghost writers of The Last Jedi.

I don't mind the social engineering in general (something has to tell people what they should be doing). Using it to create inclusiveness can be an overall positive for society, but nowadays it is being used to create divisiveness (which can lead to horrifying consequences).

There are now two helicopters instead of one.

Man... some of you guys with your Disney conspiracy theories... “Disney is poisoning the water so we’ll all fall in line with their female empowerment agenda!!!” “It’s a Small World was an inside job!!!” Until Star Wars films stop making billions of dollars each on a consistent basis, enough with the attitude that Star Wars is passé. What a ridiculous notion. It’s true there are many more franchises and series in regular release patterns but Star Wars is still king, with Marvel right there with them for the foreseeable future.

Some stuff demand a warning of some sort ... my eyes are burning .

She gets us. She just doesn't respect us and cares more about pushing Disney's NWO agenda. At least in TFA Poe was a cool guy and I really liked the camaraderie between the new characters. It was the best thing about that movie. They literally threw out everything good, cool and fun about Star Wars with TLJ.

My teenage daughter (and her friends) think that this is the best Star Wars movie ever (Reylo forever).

Sorry, I'm gonna be "that guy" for a moment here: I see these complaints all over the internet and I just disagree with every single one of them as they're mostly answered within the movie and cleared up in a second viewing, if not during the first: 1. She doesn't "beat Luke". She beats an old man. Luke isn't using the force and Rey is. Also, If I recall correctly, Luke blew up the Death Star using the force about a day or two after meeting Ben Kenobi. The force is guiding her, just as it guided Luke. 2. Ships can't jump to and from hyperspace within such short distances without causing damage or death. They're also toying with the Resistance. In fact, THEIR PLAN ACTUALLY WORKS until Kylo fucks up and lets Luke get in his head on Crait. 3. See above. The First Order would have destroyed The Resistance were it not for Kylo Ren. 4. Snoke IS weaker than the Emperor/Vader. He is not Sith. If we are to assume that the Sith are the most powerful evil Jedi in the galaxy then Snoke does not hold a candle to them. 5. Poe was not told of the escape plan because he had just disobeyed direct orders from Leia mere hours earlier. Also, the whole theme of the movie is failure. Poe's failures. Luke's failures. Finn's failures. etc. YODA SAYS TO LUKE THAT STUDENTS MUST LEARN FROM FAILURE AS THAT IS THE GREATEST TEACHER. 6. Again, see Kylo Ren. 7. If this felt like a final episode to you then congratulations. It's actually quite open ended IMHO. There is a spark of a rebellion again in the galaxy. General consensus is that episode 9 will open several years later with the rebellion picking up support among the galaxy and perhaps Rey finding new students to teach with the books she scavenged from Ahch-To. 8. Mark seems content with how his story played out after coming to terms with it. I don't see it as a disgrace. He isn't Jesus Christ. He is a man who had a moment of doubt and then his whole world crumbled around him with the destruction of the Jedi Temple. Rian also had to create a reason for why Luke had exiled himself. What would you have done in Rian's place given where JJ Abrams left things at the end of The Force Awakens?

10% off a different Brickheadz or Constraction figure each month. At the end of the year a free Hoth Han polybag with any purchase.

People have the right to fall in love with the movie, totally hate it and anywhere in between . People also have right to argue and debate why they don’t agree with above opinions. No one however has the the right to ridicule or shame others in regard to their opinion .

Always wanted it and then was let down. Guess just spoiled by today's sets. 5 years makes a difference. Plus numbered bags and highlighted instructions is so much better.

Built a few modulars, working on finishing the city block, have 4 left

More info: Age 12 and over Box Size: 58x48x12cm (Town Hall sized box, bigger than DB but smaller than city) Release in June so could well be a D2C.

My childhood 6285. I know I have all the parts, but still looking through my bulk for some of the parts. When I got it as a kid, my dad built it with me so this was my first time truly assembling it myself. I'll take a picture when I get it finished. My main goal was to have it done before the 60th set comes out and I can build the mini-model.

I still can't part with my last one.

Hmmmm... Tesco - Only available from third party sellers, request stock button removed John Lewis - No longer available online Entertainer - Discontinued TRU - Only Available in a few stores Smyths - Only Available in a few stores

I talk smack about the inflated amount of Helicopters all the time. As of before this announcement, there were already 14 sets for 2018 with a helicopter element. However, yesterday I just so happened to buy the Building Better Thinking box that includes the Chopper build. SMH.

I wouldn't; Walmart has 4,672 retail locations, Target has 1,828.

I think he is referring to the box talking about physical mail being delivered. I decided to double check and noticed that my box for emails was checked but not physical mail. Which is strange because I get a catalog and all the other Lego mail that gets sent out. So I have a feeling I'll be waiting until the end of February to get my VIP card, even though I bought mine the day after it was released on the 15th. And that is total bullsh**.... It should not take 5 f***ing months to send out a card. As much as I love building Lego, I'm getting real tired of their bullsh**. Between failed launches, horrible website that crashes just looking at it, etc, it's left quite a sour taste in my mouth when it comes to this stuff.

Did anyone that have gotten their VIP Card in the US have a box checked on their account where they want mail sent from LEGO? I contacted Customer Service through email and haven't gotten a reply back but based on what I've heard is that those who don't have it checked off will not be getting their card until the end of February. Apparently I didn't have that checked off and instead of LEGO sending the cards to those who've ordered their cards at the very beginning first they have to tell people that a box checked online makes all the difference. If this is true then I am really disappointed in the way TLG is sending these out to people. First they say 6 weeks then I get an email on 11/11/2017 saying the end of November and then they say 12 weeks and finally the end of December. Normally I expect it to be a couple weeks off the deadline but for it to be 16 weeks after I got the set and still not getting the card and to be told it may take until the end of February is infuriating me.

Tis' the season - If I was holding T1 Camper Vans right now, I'd be selling too

LOLz, as if it’s going to be that good.

Jumanji had me sold at Karen Gillan

Now that the Black VIP Card is arriving, and the talk in this thread has been focused quite a bit on that, I'm going to start moving the last few days worth of VIP card posts to a dedicated thread: Please continue your VIP Card talk there, and we'll continue talking about 75192 here.

Believe me I don’t think the film is perfect but the amount of complaining over trivial points is mind blowing. First time around with EP7 everyone complained that it was too simple and familiar and now with this people are saying that it isn’t Star Wars because of how different it is. People need to take a step back and just be happy that we get anything at all. If you don’t like it then vote with your wallets. They all can’t be aces my friends.

You guys are trying to find too much logic in a film series that was found off showing the impossible and blowing everyone’s imagination. If you want a realistic Star Wars film then may god have mercy on your soul. With that in mind I’ll leave this here for you realists to reflect upon.

(Didn’t see a Disney 2018 thread yet, so I’m posting here for now) I was happy to see a Mulan set in the new Disney Princess sets! (41151 Mulan’s Training Day) Wonder if this will perform as well as the Merida set from 2014 (41051 Merida’s Highland Games)? It’s the only “Brave” set released by Lego, and it’s since doubled in price. I’m still kicking myself for not purchasing the 41060 Sleeping Beauty’s Royal Bedroom. That one sold out fast and has risen in value exponentially—still blows my mind. If you have this set lying around, consider selling now because there’s a new Sleeping Beauty set that just came out for 2018 (41152 Sleeping Beauty’s Fairytale Castle), and it has both Aurora and Maleficent minifigs, as well as a tiny Merriweather (why couldn’t they include all 3 good fairies??)

Fans #xxx1: TLJ is a F-ing trash... butthurt butthurt butthurt.... Fans #yyy2: F-ing BUTTHURT!!! Di$$ney: So how many times did you watch TLJ ??

We are working on the Disney castle. Daughter is loving it

Really like the end product , pretty sturdy , well designed and a lot of playability . The trigger to release the “bombs” is in the perfect place and well hidden . Figures are cool too

Finished this off while the kids were napping. It’s -40 with the windchill today so cant do much else...

What makes rehashing themes OK is that new kids are born every year.

Winter Holiday Train. After the fact I wish I would have gotten the power functions beforehand. Glad the same will be reusable for our (still under the tree) Hogwarts Express.

Built the docking bay 327 which will be the new home of my recently purchased 10179.

Winter village and north pole.

Mini GE. I really hope Lego gets around to releasing more of these.

Finally finished! Holy cow, it’s a beast! Frankly I love it. Wish it had gotten more love. Sooooo steampunk. As steampunk as LEGO will ever get, I bet. Great build. Very interesting the entire time. Fantastic detail throughout.

The fact Lego don´t sell Ecto 1 anymore solves that issue!
