Kenxxx Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) Anyone in North America can buy for ~$20 here: <ali ex link removed>WARNING - A few months back, I myself, and at least a couple other brickerpickers contracted some nasty virus / malware after following a link to aliexpress and clicking around on their site a bit. Just google "aliexpress malware pop-ups" and you'll see what I'm talking about. My firewall, anti-virus, and regular malware cleaners couldn't get it out. I will never go to that site again.

CNH1974 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 so has he, apparently a lot hairier tooI did not recognise him at first and wondered why you were posting random pictures. There is a new one coming out with "The Rock" in it...oh joy, another remake. Do you get the feeling they ran out of ideas about a decade ago.

Do you get the feeling they ran out of ideas about a decade ago. Yeah, at about the time they remade "Tron". I was never a huge movie watcher in the first place, but they've gotten even worse as years have gone by. I mean, when some dumb movie with Melissa McCarthy is #1 you know it's gone downhill. And seriously, another Mall Cop movie? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoDude4848 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) Do you think TLG will release a second mini modular set during the modular anniversary year 2017? Edited November 5, 2016 by LegoDude4848 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this same thought the other day since 10230 contains the first 5 full scale buildings. I say there is such a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcdb1984 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I have one of these left with the expectation they were going to add another 5 to connect to the first set. It's a cool little build. I still have it sealed. At what point do I just unload it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current modulars are so much smaller than the old ones that you could probably use the real things and barely notice a difference. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcdb1984 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 All fair points, I just opened the bin that was in the back of the stockroom, hence why it came to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskers1236 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 This set was somewhat of a disappointment due to the lack of a pt. 2 that never happened. Really cool set that made good money if you got them on sale before they retired. They just never exploded like I hoped. Sold my last one about a year ago, always thought about building it but never did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one I built and sold my others for profit. But not tons of profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrToes16 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) It’s a shame because I am much more into mini modulars because of space. I bought 10230 after retirement because I was still in dark ages when it came out. I paired it with 40289 Diagon Alley for a mini town scene I’m working on.

I have a box of "Micropolis" sets that maybe someday I'll get to. It includes this set, plus the TRU Bricktober sets, and some other things I've seen out there. I like what you did adding 40289 and the whole plaza area. But what is going on with the minifigure head in the back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely would have added the TRU Bricktober sets as well if I didn't already sell those a long time ago. Those didn't really get too much traction even after TRU went bankrupt. I guess people don't really like mini modulars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A full town block on a little cabinet. On 7/30/2019 at 6:29 AM, brickvoyeur said: This is set 10230 with additions. Most of the additional modulars are modified versions of the mini modulars created by "o0ger". They are now sitting on the shelf behind me at work. Now if I only had the time to build my actual modulars. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
