I recently purchased both Cafe Corner and Market Street to complete my collection of modulars. Both are 100% complete, built, and with instruction booklets, and I payed $450 total. Not as good as the deal I got on my other modulars, but I'm happy with it.

via starwars.com LEGO has crafted a special brick bust in the visage of the mask of Darth Vader, also available at Target.

Selling in 2's helps as they go together like 2 carded action figures. Then just in a small shallow box like any other small Lego set

I was more disappointed there was no stripper pole in the Stark Jet.

Constraction Figs were better than this. Fight me. Maybe this will spawn a new line BustHeadz..../s

Meanwhile... at TLG headquarters: #2:”I have a great idea for an April fools joke. First we’ll mark up the new Steamboat Ideas set to some ridiculous price like $90. Then we’ll offer the exclusive mini figures for $3.99 each. If we could make it the easiest to smoosh, and the most abundant in the cmf box... hilarious!” #1: “what a great idea!” #2: “yeah, the Ideas guys would be furious. Sales would bottom out. VPs would lose their job. It would be a disaster! LOL” #1: “what were you saying? I saw something shiny. AnywAys. By the smile on your face I’ll assume you struck gold and will run with your idea. See you later.”

I was buying them up at the 99 Cent Store back when they were $1. I only ended up with about 50-60, but wanted to get 100 for a massive display.

I guess Nick Fury's inclusion is sort of a spoiler? Although I guess it technically doesn't say if it's before or after Infinity War. Also that promo is awesome!

I wonder why Woody was special enough for longer legs and not others.

Where is the Marisa Tomei's version of Aunt May ?????

Scrooge McDuck is my spirit cartoon character. Finally I can have him in LEGO form. Too bad Iago did not come with Jafar. At least we get the cartoon version of Jafar. How do I know it is the cartoon version? The LEGO minifig (with the half smirk) looks more menacing than the Jafar in the live action Aladdin trailer The Mickey&Minnie's accessories in Steamboat Willie are in silver. It looks like the CMF versions are strictly black and white.

i thought one of the rules for ideas sets is no new pieces can be made. having the hat in this series makes it so it is an already existing element.

2 - 41054 Rapunzel's Creativity Towers for $119 a piece. Buy in was 35$ each. Funny story on acquisition. Found these in a Jackson Hole souvenir shop in 2018.

All I can see now is Minnie smiling while walking around with a toilet seat.

Princess Jasmine should have come with a mini tiger

looks like these minifigs wont be exclusive and will also be in the recently announced Disney Minifigure Series 2. Edit: Just saw this tid bit, so the value could still be there for these minifigs. 'These are slightly different lacking the metallic silver accents and instead coming with white shorts and shoes instead of grey.'

This set has some good figures, but including the Steamboat Minifigures and Huey, Dewie, and Louie, which are basically just recolors, brings it down some. Chip and Dale would have been cooler in their Rescue Rangers gear.

For the chosen:

$87 lot on Mercari. I figure the purple Dragon will more than cover the cost. Instructions included: 41036-1 Jungle Bridge Rescue 41071-1 Aira's Creative Workshop 41073-1 Naida's Epic Adventure Ship 41074-1 Azari and the Magical Bakery 41075-1 The Elves' Treetop Hideaway 41094-1 Heartlake Lighthouse 41171-1 Emily Jones & the Baby Wind Dragon 41172-1 The Water Dragon Adventure 41173-1 Elvendale School of Dragons 41178-1 The Dragon Sanctuary 41183-1 The Goblin King's Evil Dragon

I'd say keep up the chatter on these awesome exo suit sets! I do enjoy mine. They pair so well with Benny and that space squad of his! sooo I"ve also been hearing great things about this chima lego thing, may worth a google?

So if I list I can get $500? Or $250 from Tabby. Tough choice...

New promo, when will this be available?

The Brick Fan has some official pictures up, but I really enjoyed this one from that classic scene when Rey and Kylo fight and Rey pushes over a tree and finds a blaster underneath it.

There is no sign that 2019 would be the end. Speed Champions caters for a very specific market sub-segment (collectible sport car models), it is not tied to a specific license and LEGO has no obvious substitute. This will likely stick around for a long while. I also read in an interview with LEGO designers (can't find which one) that SC did a lot to improve their small scale car designs. The challenges to replicate a shape of a specific car forced them to come up with new techniques, and this experience is now transferred over to other themes. This resulted and will result in more varied cars for the City, Creator and other themes. So LEGO has good incentives beyond direct profits to keep the theme around.
