Thanos75 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Not so much what I bought but what I happened to get. My friend used to manage the local Toys R Us. She gave me a big bag full of these....lol 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 If folks are cheap and are looking for stuff to buy AT a LEGO store for the boat promo, the one nearest me had some sets at 10-20% discount - marked with red tags on "sale" but not on clearance: Kai Fighter, Kylo Ren's Shuttle, Resistance ITS Transport, Sith Trooper Battle Pack, Elsa's Castle, Friendship Bus, SMB Thwomp, SMB Boomer Bill, SMB Guarded Fortress... Monkie Kid stuff... I grabbed a couple things and the manager was generous and gave me two promos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$20 on joe vs dan Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) bought 9499 because it was my turn actually "won it" on Ebay...$219.34 out the door...stars lines up w/ 5% Ebay Bucks available right when I was about to checkout. I find myself hunting whales of late...that Queen Amidala has been on my mind for about a year now edit: sorry wrong thread: "Build" "buy" what's the difference? (for me about 5 years of backlog if I start building nonstop starting now) Edited August 10, 2021 by $20 on joe vs dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

$20 on joe vs dan Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) dang gummit...wrong post again...anyway to make this relevant... I bought a used big hogwarts for $215 on ebay Past weekend took my boy and his buddy. We did the pit passes $20 ea (a waste of money since you can't really engage w/ the drivers (Covid) or even get close to most of the trucks (ribboned off). After about 10 pictures it was like,...well that was a waste of $100. The show was relatively tame (never been before) and I guess because of the smaller indoor venue they didn't do the car crushing thing; which is what we were looking forward to. It is crazy how high these trucks get and I am hoping it was memorable for the boys. Edited August 17, 2021 by $20 on joe vs dan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been to both the arena events and the stadium events. The stadium events are much better. The bigger area allows for some amazing freestyle which the arenas just cannot handle.

Pseudoty Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Stopped in the Lego store today first time since January 1st when I went for the Police Modular. They had all the big supposed retiring sets in stock and even had the MILF. Interesting how they chose to display World Map the largest lego set ever made is on its side Carte Du Monde Mapamundi. I guess because nobody is going to buy it anyway. I was hoping to see the UCS Gunship on display but they had already broken it down. Anyway they had no Sailboat promos left so all I got was the Ninjago BHZ 3 pack. The friendly cashier informed me I had a $20 reward and asked if I wanted to use it. Turns out when I accidentally redeemed rewards for the wrong reward, in store but wanted online, and I called to get the online reward they never canceled the in store. YMMV 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YMMV yeah, when I went to my local store yesterday they were max stocked. I couldn't really think of a recent set they didn't have...but in hindsight I think all the CNY sets were out (which was what I was supposed to get due to limits). Why would they break down the UCS Gunship so soon? weird how you think you have a plan going in...and then once in the store, seeing all the sets, you're like...what am I supposed to be buying? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they just removed the wings because it takes up so much space. Going back to the Tumbler release they stopped displaying sets that they don’t have in stock because it was causing them issues. ETA: They used to always have the old DS on display even when it was sold out. I was surprised how much room Mario sets have an entire display front window that normally has 5-6 different sets and most of the city section is now Mario.

You can motorize the train and modify the mine so the train goes right through it? Then you mine as well pickup Colby City set as well.

oneknightr Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I spy a Lego Death Star with extra cheese slopes. Someone made out like a bandit today. I check craigslist from time to time and talk about a missed opportunity. Even though it was posted three hours ago and there was less than a 1% chance, I had to go see since it's only five mins away. No surprise...they were gone when I got there. I ended up with a couple of Hot Wheels and two unopened ribbons. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
