  2. For those that stocked up on this set during any TRU closing sale, looks like Amazon picked this up.

  3. The high point in the gun turret on top which is at 7.5 inches when I try and eyeball it at level. I don't have a caliper system so I can't be exact. There is a little bit of parallax in this photo but I tried to level right at the flat of the turret which is about 7.

  4. Due to the amount of space my Star Wars UCS sets were taking up, I took the decision that having a modular town would not be possible. Hence, started to sell off my modulars. Sold this little gem for £650. Buy in was £450 about 18 months ago, so cleared £170 after fees.

  5. Not essentially today but finally after months of planning, ordering multiple times from brick-link, buying from PaB walls in store, redesigning, restructuring, testing, balancing, rebuilding, destroying by accident... I was finally able to finish my extremely frustrating but fantastic project of mounting this extremely fragile but adorable baby on the wall. 75192 is mounted on a solid TV-Mount (plate) attached to the wall with custom extended 4 point weight distribution bolts to keep it well balanced across the mid-structure without putting to much pressure on single section of the chassis. With some extra changes to the weight and centre-balance I was able to give it little more angular aspect to get more "air" on the bottom. Clearance on the top to the wall is about 1.5cm and bottom 6.5cm. That clearance on top and bottom gave me a little more leeway in designing the schematics for lighting kit. After testing with number of different lighting setups I came up with this as a final design. I wanted to give it on the bottom an extra push of light for obvious reasons :) Lighting is fully programmable with already programmed by me ignition sequence - flashing white lights -> red quick ignition pulse -> blue light -> blue light fading in/out. whole thing is remote controlled. reference: https://youtu.be/jPEYpryMp2s?t=75 + custom made sockets (under bottom engine outlets on left and right) for 2x 10 000 mAh Powerbanks to juice the lighting kit because from very beginning I wanted to avoid the cable management situation and keep it as clean as possible. And here it is.. I'm proud but exhausted and tired with whole thing... hope you gonna like it

  7. yeah the other ones were hard to come by. think the honey hole only had 15-20 of the others at $2.50. for some reason they had a lot of friends puppy tricks. i'm holding out for $20 on the rest of the stash. i could never get passed the squished box in a mailer stage in my relationship with kmart but you are certainly the master of that opaque art. i'll make more money selling the equivalent dollar value from these little silly puppy sets than I ever will make from a sTumbler.

  8. That's the worst performing one of the three. Sold a lot of the others for $16 each, buy-in $0.05 average (thanks KMart for these fillers).

  11. 70919 The Justice League Anniversary Party Simple build, lots of fun though. Love Hawkgirl, El Dorado, Green Arrow and Wonder Dog. All in for that reason alone. I think I’ll put it aside for the Winter Village.
