That haircut looks familiar

Are they doing a dance off?

Thought it might be a good time to revive this topic as we have seen a number of changes in the last two years and likely will going forward. Top ten as of 21st April - including confirmed 2018 releases ranked by part count. I may take a look at box weights too a bit later. 1) 2017 - 75192 UCS Millennium Falcon 2.0 - 7541 pieces 2) 2017/2008 - 10256/10189 Taj Mahal 1.1/1.0 - 5923 / 5922 pieces 3) 2007 - 10179 UCS Millennium Falcon 1.0 - 5197 pieces 4) 2017 - 70620 Ninjago City - 4867 pieces 5) 2016 - 75827 Ghostbusters Firehouse - 4634 pieces 6) 2010 - 10214 Tower Bridge - 4287 pieces 7) 2016 - 10253 Big Ben - 4163 pieces 8 ) 2018 - 10261 Rollercoaster - 4124 pieces 9) 2016 - 71040 Disney Castle - 4080 pieces 10) 2018 - 42082 Rough Terrain Crane - 4057 pieces * The Chima megapack and lifesize X-Wing are not included due to not being commercial releases. There should be another two new entries in the list with the rumoured Harry Potter and Star Wars autumn D2Cs. Pretty amazing that eight out of ten sets are from the last 2 years and only the original Falcon can´t be bought this year. No place in the list for any Death Star or Assembly Square, being too small.

I guess @ravenb99 is already on bag 3. 4124 pieces.

Picked up a nice sealed lot

I bow to your superior opinion Mathew. I shall refrain from expressing my silly criticisms. I thought I was a casual architecture fan wanting a fair representation for a fair price but apparently not.

Angry Birds 2018.

Here’s a screenshot from a FB post I saw....

Sweet! I can finally do my Neverending Story moc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thx for the heads up. Found a box at the customer service desk. Had about 30 figures still in it, but the policeman was still there on the left.

As soon as I build the little cars I’ll be going “WHEEEE!”

I will probably just bricklink the animals and buy the starter pack for the figs. LEGO is playing the same game with City and Jurassic World now as with the Super Heroes theme: putting an exclusive animal into each larger set to sell all the stupid vehicles.

Smart marketing by LEGO IMO. People will buy multiples to make a larger wall.

This has got to be LEGO just trolling all the helicopter hate.

good luck smooshing these puppies

Yeh me too . Give it time and something else will pop up.

Hi Furious, Spewin, I was hoping by your message earlier in the week it would be back today

Big USP is that 60194 is intergrated with Lego Boost.

Love the final result but man was the build frustrating. By far the worst instructions I've had to work with and I've built a lot of classic sets. Cleaning baked in dust and sorting 500+ black pieces added to the frustration (I actually don't mind refurbing classic sets but this one again was more difficult than usual). I added the railing in the back of the "message intercept" section. Anyway, I really dig the abstract nature of classic space base sets. Not all are good but this one and a few of others are kind of beautiful to look at.

He shoots, he scores

First photos have leaked so I guess this will indeed be one of the May early access sets. Bad news is PF seem to be an extra cost option as there is a manual winding mechanism at the front. Official press release tomorrow at 15h CET?

Where's the historically accurate Matt Damon Mini Figure?

I actually like the tripod. LOL. While the 2 X 2s don't bother me, LEGO does have some girder pieces that would have worked and looked better.

Something to talk about for the next two years, you mean.

The good thing is there are sooo many rollercoasters on the market now, you are all sure to like one of them!

Yeah, it looks like they cut corners to keep the piece count down. The designers were probably trying for a hybrid wooden / steel coaster look. Personally I find the new Creator Pirate roller coaster set much more appealing.

Sure but all of those white round 2x2 pieces that make up a large portion of the set could easily be replaced by less expensive stanchion type pieces or technic beams. It wouldn't look as nice but it would probably drop the price some. I'm not sure I see the value if this retails for $350. And if there's any set that you'll want to add power functions to it's this one so figure around $400+ tax. Ouch. I'm interested in seeing how well the whole thing works in operation. If it requires you to manually push it even with power functions that will make it much less impressive.

At least Lego is releasing these at a time when the subject material is actually relevant. Angry Birds was ten years too late and never stood a chance. This theme has potential and if found at a decent discount I'll probably buy a few to flip locally around the holidays.

By that reasoning, I've always been old or as I prefer "experienced". Now let's see, where did I put my 8-track tapes? Ah yes right next to the Betamax player.

I just did the same. Two days ago my two B&N didn't show any in stock. After reading your post I checked again and they now had them. Both cases were relatively untouched, and I found both policemen. At one store they were on the shelf in the main Lego section. At the other store they were on the counter at the customer service desk in the middle of the store. Barnes is starting to get stock, folks, so check your stores!

That's not getting old ..... My music collection's newest entries are from 1996 .......

Found a mostly full box at B&N last night. Looked in left section, 5th from back....and was shocked to find the policeman!

My stack of $10 GCs is about 3" deep already. Their spring clearance has got to hit eventually! Sent from my LG-M153 using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

S@H grabs packs in random, meaning there is a good chance for dups. There should not be any difference this time around

Better get that Class Action paperwork started so you’re ready to roll on 1/1/2019 ....

Just got two police officers from fresh cases at Target. Both were fifth from the back on the left.

This was the first store in a 40 mile radius to drop the price of 10715 this morning. The big sets were obviously online returns and were lying on the top shelf. The Go Kart had been there for a while - I recall price checking it a few months ago. It must have been the fact that I was in my best suit on the way to a meeting that made the Toy Dept Mgr discount these on the spot ... I didn't really ask, she just said "let me see what I can do"... ... And my rugged good looks of course.

Somehow I got lucky and smooshed 2 Policeman at the same Walmart yesterday!

My five year old daughter is about to lose her ever lovin' mind over this.

Beautiful rendition of the Ford GT designed by the 1:8 scale super car king @loxlego My photos are crap, so if you want further info go here. This shelf is pretty much his shelf.

Damn, the temptation is great to just dump all of them into the bottle. However you're right that one has to count these to make sure one doesn't deviate from the official build. Otherwise one gets into mod territory.

Yes, these are expansion packs.

See, if we only had Brown Bears wandering into our mining facilities, would be so much more believeable then.
