Have you checked out some of the buying benefits of your credit card? Chances are you have. However, you may have missed some features that can prove to be incredibly useful to a Birckpicker. A growing number of cards have a price-lock feature. It will allow you to essentially get reimbursed the difference if the price comes down on something you bought up to 90 days from purchase (or your cards time limit). I wish I had known about this sooner as I would have taken advantage of it when the SC from Amazon dropped below what I paid for it. Another helpful feature is the extended return period. This allows you to get reimbursed for an item even after the initial return pe…

Could someone please tell me what English kids' song is being sung on this melody? The German song is called "Fuchs, du hast die Gans gestohlen" ("Fox, you stole the goose") :

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night, depending on where on this planet you find yourself. I am curious about what other models Brickpickers build and whether you would recommend certain types or manufacturers. I am on the verge of purchasing a wooden model ship to build and hope that maybe someone else here has a little experience with these. I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback.

Did anybody else get an invite to the early screenings of the Lego Batman Movie on Saturday, Feb. 4th? Lego VIP gave me up to four seats to a screening at 10:30AM on Saturday. Pretty cool, going to take my buddy and his son.

"I have died in so many spectacular ways, and I remember shooting them all, too. I imagine all those deaths will flash in front of me when I’m on my death bed, faced with the real thing."

Somehow I missed this earlier. Special screenings of Princess Mononoke in select theaters. Thursday Jan 5th (tonight) and Monday Jan 9th. http://fathomevents.com/event/princess-mononoke-20th-anniversary

Happy Birthday to my little brother Jeff....?

Seasons Greetings... What Lego sets made their way to your home this Christmas or Hanukkah? Our family was lucky enough to acquire the 71040 Disney Castle. How about you?

Ok so my question is simple but not simple. So 10188 has 3800+ peices in its set as printed on box. What i wanna know is how many of the little "dots"(and i use this term cause idk what theyre called but im sure they have a name) that connect legos to each other does that consist of? And i dont expect anyone to sit there and count them so some mathamatical expertise would be helpful with all the ratios and estimates and cool math stuff that would go into figuring that out. The rest is up to you.....

An oldie, but a goodie. Let's have a little fun. All wings, check in!

Has anyone else tried super Mario run? I like it after the same thing in every game for all these years it's a refreshing twist on a classic

Hello there, I'm new As there's a new Star Wars film out today everyones putting up loads of stuff on youtube. I caught this and thought some peeps here might like - its a way to introduce myself i spose! Its a Lego XWING being flown by a drone and then they get all slow motiony, it's pretty good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kthdNsjrSRQ They also did one with them dropping the Death Star Lego kit and shooting it at superslo motion which is wicked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEHRrZrXOdQ have a look, bit of light hearted fun for the afternoon!

Not sure if we have a thread about this or something new. Thought it be cool to share! My girlfriend asked me to wait up stairs (an hour later) I come down stairs to this!! I think she did a really nice job lol! She knows I love Star Wars and I guess wanted to me to get excited for the holidays. (Post pictures of your Christmas trees/decorations here as well!) Happy holidays everyone!

So, I'm thinking of getting some type of a new pet. I've been looking at various reptiles/amphibians such as tortoises, frogs, and the like. Anyone own anything that they can recommend?

What's your take on Alexa? Is she worth it?

Lego ends advertising with Daily Mail after calls for companies to 'Stop Funding Hate' http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/lego-ends-advertising-daily-mail-stop-funding-hate-campaign-a7413361.html

Just me curiously asking who all plays this trading card game or while I am it any of the others available? Depending on how this conversation goes, I may just form a singular topic for all trading card game discussion whether physical or digital form.

Looking to pick up some comics/graphic novels on Ebay, any titles anyone has personally read/can recommend?

It looks pretty cool. A couple of toy lines are missing like Super Powers (although a 1990s Batman is there). Very cool looking. Original article = http://www.cincinnatimagazine.com/citywiseblog/new-mural-to-honor-kenner-products-and-cincinnatis-toy-design-heritage/

So...anyone else an Olympics junkie like me? There's quite a few sports that I enjoy watching. Just wondering if anyone else is going to be watching this stuff for the next two weeks like I will be. Some of my favorites sports are Volleyball (beach and indoor, male and female), Road Bike Race, Marathon, Diving, Swimming, Rowing, and Rugby. What about everyone else? I'm psyched that "my girl", Kerri Walsh-Jennings is playing tonight.

I've been at this for a while now, and I have some friends who are heavy Magic players - I always keep my eye out for sealed product on clearance for them, but I never come across any. Is this a function of the card business, are they not allowed to clear/discount or do they just never bother? Anyone have any insights on M:TG clearance?
