🎉 Happy New Year — BrickPicker v2.0 is officially underway (Coming soon 2026) Happy New Year, everyone! I wanted to kick off 2026 by sharing something I’ve been quietly working toward for a while: BrickPicker is coming back — bigger, better, and built around a new vision. The last few years have been busy with life, but that time also gave me room to step back and rethink what BrickPicker should be… and what would truly make it a no-brainer tool for LEGO resellers. 🚀 The new focus: reseller-first, analytics-firstBrickPicker v2.0 is being rebuilt with one clear goal: Help LEGO resellers make smarter buying and selling decisions.That means the site will be centered around: Deep analytics on current / active sets Tools that help resellers help other resellers A more “stock-style” experience (signals, trends, movers, volume, etc.) More than just a price guide — the kind of data that supports real decisions 📊 300+ data points per set (seriously)One of the biggest upgrades is the data model itself. BrickPicker v2.0 is being designed to provide 300+ data points per set — the kind of market intelligence that helps you answer questions like: Is this set actually moving, or just sitting? Is demand rising or fading over the last 30/90/180 days? Is this trending toward retirement risk? Is this a good buy right now at a certain price? What’s the real spread and profit potential after fees/shipping? This isn’t just “price history” — it’s decision-grade analytics. 🧱 Massive update: Brickfolio is getting a major upgradeA big part of BrickPicker v2.0 is a complete refresh of the Brickfolio experience — built for resellers who want to track inventory like a portfolio. The goal is for Brickfolio to feel more like a LEGO stock dashboard for your inventory: Track performance over time Understand wins/losses and trends at a glance Inventory insights that help you decide what to buy more of, what to stop buying, and what to move (Details coming soon — this is one of the areas I’m most excited about.) What to expect in this forumThis thread (and this forum section) will be the home for BrickPicker v2.0 updates. I’ll start posting: Feature previews Screenshots / mockups Data points and dashboards I’m building Beta plans + rollout notes Feedback threads (because I want this shaped by real resellers) Thanks for being part of BrickPicker — I’m excited to bring it back the right way. More updates soon. Jeff Mack

Today's holiday freebie is Chivalry II, a first-person multiplayer battlefield simulator thingy almost like medieval Star Wars Battlefront more or less (minus the space guns of course). Looks like there will be two games for tomorrow. Anyway, Happy New Years!

Arcade Machine, another great affordable set this one was only $34 after CB and came with the Ninjago City GWP. No brick separator and a damaged sticker sheet was not the best beginning but the build is great and lots of fun with some awesome prints as well. If it wasn’t for the Gameboy this would easily be the best set under $60. I hope they do a series of these and we get a Defender set next. Next up I was going to build the Enterprise but still have the D&D Castle set so will probably flip a coin tomorrow.

Same but not worried about it. Don't get me wrong, still worried about 100 other Amazon incompetencies but not that one.

Do you guys bother with Amazon Canada? I got deactivated but I dont sell there. Officially I should be fine but I dont know if I trust amazon that it wont end up affecting USA account

Sold a factory sealed case of 3 Stranger Things 40549 BHZ for $300. I have a few more left but will probably hold them until the last season of the spinoff show 🤣

One of the last freebies for the holidays before resuming the regular weekly schedule is the Trine Classic Collection which includes Trine: Enchanted Edition, Trine 2: Complete Story, Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power, & Trine 4: Definitive Edition. I can still remember coming across the original at Target back in 2009. Anyway, this collection is usually listed around $50.

Game Boy, let’s just say that if someone built this as their first Lego set every other Lego set would be a disappointment, it’s that good. Not comparing it to a huge display set like Rivendell but the build and parts usage are amazing.

Today's holiday freebie is Viewfinder. A first-person puzzle game in the same vein as Superliminal but with the added layer of an instant camera. Hard to properly describe through text but well worth playing at least once.

That is just awful. Ugly and awful. Between garbage like this and the endless run of flower sets, LEGO is completely losing me as a customer.

My Top 3 alt sets of 2024: Lumibricks (formerly Fun Whole) Boxing Club, they do have a 2 set modular castle that looks good but not getting it. Pantasy Craft Brewery, they have multiple modulars that look great but this one has a working technic assembly line. Pantasy Microscope this or the Lego Gameboy for best set under $60 https://www.amazon.com/Lumibricks-Street-Fusion-Lighting-Building/dp/B0FVWTDZXF/? https://www.amazon.com/PANTASY-Craft-Brewery-Building-Adults/dp/B0F733M7R4/ref=sr_1_2_sspa? https://www.amazon.com/PANTASY-Microscope-Instrument-Accessories-Collectible/dp/B0FQBZJ431/ref=sr_1_12_sspa?

Today's freebie is Skald: Against The Black Priory. A role-playing game seemingly inspired by the Ultima series circa the 1980s on an Apple II or Commodore 64.

The SAFE-T process was made to destroy the souls of 3rd party sellers who have legit claims. First thing Amazon does to any claim is to auto reject it.

Have you guys encountered these issues recently: 1) Amazon lost my inventory but won’t reimburse me for the cost of purchase, they calculate their own price which is wayyyy less then what I thought the sets for even on sale. 2) I use Amazon FBA and the customer never received the item, why do I get charged the refund?

Today's late reminder of a freebie is Cassette Beasts. Only a few days left before New Years for 2026.

Still cheap compared to what FIFA is charging for a seat on the far end of the stadium 🤑

Holding out for the Peace Prize edition....

Pretty expensive for a kidney stone
