This popped up today on Marketplace and I saw the instructions for Cloud City at the bottom right. I messaged the seller and asked if that set was complete and all the figs are with it. They said yes. I offered $250 and they accepted it. I will find out in the morning. Fingers crossed.

Me reading this post:

Went back for more

Way before my time there...Parents did have an Imperial right after those though. That is unused back seat Bronco leather so looks nice. Kid hardly with us anymore so doesn't drive with us much anymore. Knee pads c'mon man that is way to much effort for a GWP... I just prefer the good old fashion way.

Looks like a shitty Ford back seat

I check the new Amazon forum from time to time (Incognito mode, so I do not have to sign in). It is a pity how Amzn has ruined the most informative resource on their platform. Anyway, I saw a topic asking to share helpful resource / tip, and the most upvoted post was the advice on selling somewhere other than Amzn

Some of us may already know where the second half of this brief documentary goes.

Finished 10219, Maersk Container Train, this weekend. Received it 10 years ago from someone who said there were missing pieces and their kid was not interested in Lego so gave the open box to me with original bags inside with one ziplock of the few bags that had been opened. Turns out there were only 5 pieces missing from what had been assembled, all were common that I had on hand. Box, instructions and complete kit. Now fully assembled and on the shelf.

World of wonders in stop motion:

A-Frame Cabin. Part of my review submitted to Lego: There are 15 numbered bags with some having multiples. 5 of them go to the 2 side builds and the exterior side walls require 2 more, while the remaining 8 go towards the goodness of the modular style build. Perhaps leave off the side builds and give us a larger cabin or decrease the price. The build is challenging at times, aligning those Thor’s hammers just right was not the most enjoyable task. The interior is very tight for larger hands and you need to be extra careful when building the front and back sides as not to move anything out of alignment. Some positives: no stickers, some great printed elements and awesome detailed interior, just not enough of it. Lackluster Minifigures and very little usable space for them make this a display set only. The front deck rocking chair actually touches the deck railing it is too cramped, 1 stud wider would have made a big difference. The set does look great just not even close to the Medieval Blacksmith set that used to cost $30 less and has far superior Minifigures.

You can add B&N to the bubble envelope crowd. I ordered 4 orders of the Mando Starfighter this past weekend. The first three arrived fine but the final package, a single set, was shipped in a bubble mailer. Came through in pretty good shape. Only dinged corners and a slight crush.
