  1. A few days ago, but I took my daughter to the Illinois Railway Museum in northern IL- the largest railroad museum in the US. Highly recommended! Awesome opportunities for photographing upcoming MOCs. Sent from my moto g power (2021) using Tapatalk

  5. So I just got off phone with Walmart. They confirmed that Jai SAI has been removed due to quality concerns. But they said they had to reach out to seller one more time (on my behalf). And if they still don’t cooperate then I need to call Walmart back on Monday and they will refund. And they gave me a case number that includes both my orders. So that’s helpful. We’ll see I guess.

  6. It has low barrier to entry. Just have a bunch of people willing to steal $949 worth of stuffs from stores in San Francisco. With any luck, that city will deal with this problem by upping the threshold for police involvement from $950 to $1450. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/after-san-francisco-shoplifting-video-goes-viral-officials-argue-thefts-n1273848

  7. Received a Kylo Ren's Shuttle from Kohls today and, not only did it come in a box instead of a bag but the box was a doubled-walled one. I was prepared to receive a beat-up box and got a mint one instead. Merry Christmas!

  9. This is the Dr that discovered the variant. She states that it is very mild. But US politicians totally ignore her because it doesn't fit with their narrative of total control.

  11. Mustang Cobra Shelby there's others mentioned here: https://www.brickfanatics.com/new-lego-technic-sets-for-2022-unveiled/ lovin it...makes the orange vette look even more monstrous...but as this line grows the completionist will make that fugly orange turd appreciate big time [and don't forget the car transports that all these are perfectly sized for...I predict it will hit $400 easily and may settle on $500 a couple years form now]

  12. It's one of those parental decisions of whether to allow your child to use profanity or not. In our house, we decided not to filter our choice of words and allow them to use them in the house, but we taught them that there is a time and place for everything. They understand when it's ok and when it's not appropriate. Example: I call stupid drivers jacka$$es when I see them. I was driving my 4yo son home from preschool one day, and I growled when a driver cut me off. My son appropriately responded by saying, "That guy was a jacka$$!" I laughed out loud. We've never had any problems with them cussing in public.

  15. Yeah, you only get four doses of that as a child... 🥴 I don't understand people's inability to weigh the options here. I'll get as many shots as it takes. I was sore and achy for like 30 hours after my Pfizer booster (had J&J in the spring), but whatever, I'm not on a ventilator or sick for an entire week like my unvaccinated brother. Conservatives seem to want to have their cake and eat it too. Whine about literally every effect of the pandemic from inflation to shipping delays but also won't accept that the only way out of this is vaccination. Seems very 'cake or death' to me. Maybe I don't spend enough time on conspiracy forums.

  17. USPS called me back about my fraud claim. And I did file a fraud claim on their website. USPS told me to call the FBI as it is a cyber crime. Also, Seller is offering a 30% discount. I said no. Then they offered 50% discount and I can keep the counterfeit lego sets (how nice of them). I said no, 100% refund. Then they offered a 80% refund. I said no, "this is not a negotiation. 100% refund". We will see what they say next.

  18. Hey Brickpickers, please DM me on here (with the link to the item and seller profile) whenever you see a suspicious looking Lego listing on Walmart.com going forward. We are working to identify and de-list all bad actors in toys and games there this season. You can send non-Lego links too if clearly suspicious.... Pretty much as soon as we identify the bad actor we can have them banned, so keep em coming as they pop up.

  20. I am glad others have noticed this, and that action has been taken! Some suspiciously good deals but a ton of bad reviews on them. Interestingly, one of the reviews listed a different seller name, so I wonder if they tried to evade detection/notoriety by changing their dba. Scumbags. Glad those of you who were affected seem to be getting the situations properly rectified!

  21. Buy them now online for store pickup but don't get them until Sunday then pay with the 10% off GC? https://www.target.com/p/lego-creator-expert-gingerbread-house-building-kit-10267/-/A-76555786

  23. "Allegedly" organized. Agree with you, but depending on several factors it may take a considerable amount of time to proof. This would make a good storyline for The Wire remake / revival. Hear that HBO ?

  25. I think this is the one I’m going to get. I wasn’t sold on the original, everyone else was getting Delta so I decided not to, this one seems interesting though. What can I say, a late adopter over here.

  29. I posted in the Meijer thread, but will post here as well. Meijer currently has a bogo40 sale on Star Wars & Potter Lego sets. This sale stacks with the current Santa Bucks coupons. Pickings were slim at my store, but I was able to get four 76388 Hogsmeade Village Visit sets at $54 each, before tax, which is 33% off. Not the greatest discount but not too bad either on a popular set that hasn’t been discounted yet. I did two separate transactions of two sets each using my account and my wife’s account to maximize the Santa Bucks. Another set I was considering was the Probe Droid. After the stack they would have also been 33% off, which is cheaper than the current $48 sale price at Target. Please post any further comments on this sale in the appropriate Meijer thread so we don’t clog the DD thread with a non-National chain store conversation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  33. TLG just needs to sell this set to sell well in China, everything else is a bonus. Probably most kids there already know about the monkey King and journey to the west so less selling of the story. When I was a kid I watched one of the stories that I recorded on VHS until it went kaput.

  34. LEGO needs some "no" people. The themes that fail are usually pretty obvious. If we see it, they should see it.

  36. Couple more: https://www.theregister.com/2021/12/02/lippstadt_lego_theft/ (this one is smart - they took only the bricks from the sets, which makes the stolen LEGO impossible to trace). https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/lego-trafficking-scheme-stolen-sets-worth-thousands-busted-brick-brick-n1282175

  37. The promo video can be confusing. It shows other minifigs not included in the set https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2478841825593602 Actually, the promo picture above has a professor minifig, but she is not part of the set, correct? 🤔
