Mueller gets in a little sightseeing before the match on Sunday

Finished my 4483 the other night. Just made me really want a UCS version.

You’d think LEGO would want to support their most popular reviewers, instead of having them banned.

While I'm an undisputed "Lifetime LEGO Lover", I just visited Billund for the first time as part of the Fan Media Days event. My Impressions: Billund is a magical town where the bakery is perfect, the streets are clean and freshly paved, and everyone you meet is wearing the classic Minifigure smile. The town of Billund is quite literally LEGO land — the center of town where City Hall used to be has even been replaced by the magnificent LEGO House! Don't forget the very first LEGOLAND theme park, as well as the headquarters of the LEGO Group. The highlight for me was definitely the new LEGO House. It is architecturally interesting, and it's an amazing ambassador of the LEGO Brand. I was impressed by how effectively the building focuses on the core aspects of the LEGO brand like creativity, learning, and play — rather than showcasing the latest licensed products. Behind-the-scenes look at the beautifully decorated employee cantina. To be fair, the town feels a bit strange, since it's effectively a modern factory town that's a bit hard to escape. no wonder many LEGO employees live pretty far from Billund to get a break from the place where everything is awesome all-the-time. For a much more in-depth account of my experiences (both good and bad), I shared a longer version of this article at Brick Architect. Sincerely, ---tom P.S. While it's been exciting to share my initial impressions, I'd also love to hear your impressions of Billund, LEGOLAND, and the new LEGO House museum! What did you like best, what could be improved, or what unexpected surprises did you find in the home of the LEGO brick?

one man’s 40%-off scraps are another man’s 50%-off buys.

He's opening a gray-market LEGO store ... TRU closing presents actual opportunities for mobile sellers as people will return like geese to the ex-TRU parking lot this holiday season somehow missing the news that they went bankrupt. that's when this guy has his day...

My store was really good to me when it came to the signage in the store. They literally gave my everything. All the " canvas " covers...end cap signs, translights , border signage , and even the big red Lego cube that hangs above the whole section.

New book promo... it's absolutely fabulous. This and the snowglobe are easily my two favorite promo sets of all time. Sent from my SM-G935V using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

Holding out for 70%.

RIP Baby Raptor...

I love how you guys have UCS sets for "scraps" when mine's like half a shelf of SW Constractions and 2 Angry Birds/Chima sets. ?

Expect an oil slick function made up of 400 translucent cheese slopes to bump up the part count.

Last 2 days I picked up on offer up 75192 falcon $400 sealed (box not in great shape) Then 7930 bounty hunter gunship & 7675 at-te both in factory sealed boxes- both for $115

I didn't like their style of presenting, but as of yesterday YouTube has taken down The BrickShow's channel: The YouTube account associated with this video has been terminated due to multiple third-party notifications of copyright infringement. Word on the street is that this is due to several videos showing confidential images and set news in the recent past. They have 450k subscribers - I do hope their account gets reinstated at some point because they did cover older sets that Jang doesn't review. On the subject of Jang, he recently detailed why he doesn't review everything. Reason #1 was surprising to me: Eyyy I haven't forgotten about LEGO Friends! I have to dramatically cut back on my coverage of the line (and its offshoots) due to: YouTube's aggressively antagonistic algorithms that ruthlessly punish not only videos that under-perform relative to others on a given channel, but other videos that follow as well. The overwhelming volume of products LEGO now releases every year, forcing me to either work an unhealthy amount and review everything, or be selective and live a manageable life. A personal lack of interest in many of the past year's Friends & Elves sets. At least #3 has been pushed to the side now with the new racing-themed lineup, so while being mindful of #2 I have decided to review at least a couple of the latest Friends products, maybe more if I get the chance.

All those scores are great, but who got this?

ditto. i liked their pre-2014 content. i prefer JangBricks (formally Lego Jang)

How many do you anticipate buying? If it's more about price then I'd say wait until it drops to your price point and buy as many as you can. If there's concern of getting a certain quantity I'd say wait and watch the piles & the tracker and when you see stock getting low enough then snag whatever quantity fits the bill. Or maybe half the remaining stock and wait some more to see if the prices drop. You might end up with Pool #1 of Qty X at RRP and Pool #2 of Qty Y at the clearance price. At least you secure some. Again depends on what your goals are and to what scale you expect to invest. They don't look to be flying off the shelves yet (as of this morning).

That 75192 has to be stolen, no amount of box damage would warrant 50% off.

Retire the dang campervan already!

Life size, it has a hole in it.

This is what happens when you keep diluting the pool just to get more money. The 24 nations format was the best , and they should have stuck to that instead of this BS. Fifa is so corrupt.

Its true. All of it. 2 minecraft Mountains for the price of one.

Lego Asst. Exec: We've spoken with Aston, can we really make the change? Lego Exec: Yes, we have the rights. Lego Asst. Exec Asst: But it has been tweeted?! The Fans, what about the fans! Lego Exec: Make it so, execute order 66.

Excited about this. I really hope this is a Creator set, and not the next Technic car.

Current trend in animation: simple lines and less details. Oh and keep the story simple for 13 minutes 1/2 episodes. One more thing: make everything look "cute"

You can only dispute feedback for certain reasons and for the majority of the time it works fine. Except when you receive feedback like you have received. You are able to comment on your feedback received. You are able to change feedback you have written, so if it really bothers you, try contacting the buyer and asking if you can improve their experience?

Our condolences for your loss. If you are unfamiliar with the wide variety of LEGO parts, another good resource is Tom Alphin's Brick Labels (http://brickarchitect.com/labels/ --- the contact sheet PDF file contains a printable letter-sized paper version) which can help you identify loose bricks. Each picture has the part name and number, which matches the description on bricklink. Depending on your time frame, one thing to consider is that it's often easier/faster (although not a lucrative) to sell things off as bulk lots rather than trying to rebuild the sets. But to start, posting pictures or a spreadsheet with the set numbers from the instruction books is a good first step to identifying what you have.

I think the buyout 12 years ago or whenever was the primary reason. They could have probably lasted another 10 years if they would have been managed by a better parent company, and streamlining their online sales of course.

Lego Thomas Mueller ready for the trip from California to Moscow!

And a $6B debt load And inflated prices And rude/disinterested employees

Picked up a 40% Boost since it was the last one and signs were out that the place closes in a couple weeks. Didn't want to risk missing over a few dollars. Now to cough up the money for the coaster.

This sale has been going on for a few weeks now if I recall correctly. Still good to get the news out there for those who weren’t aware. Last day is 6/30 according to B&N website.

The revelation that Boost incorporates with the roller coaster is the only reason I want one, and even then I'm not interested until 40-50% off. My TRU had several last time I was there so I'm hopeful there is still one left when I hit it up after work.

So long as they build in a firing star wars blaster that launches green translucent pieces for 'sneezing action' GOD BLESS YOU!

Just about an hour ago: Picked up the 42083 at the store in La Jolla. After all point discounts had been applied; I paid just over $100.00 for the set, and earned $15.00 in points again by buying it. So, the grand total was $85.00 and 2 hours in Friday afternoon traffic in south California; still, I’m so happy with this total deal ! ?

Wanna see a loop on this thing? Here ya go...
