Nothing will pull me away. If the site goes down I will fix it after the movie. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker

As promised, I will post how I built the digital rendition of the San Diego Comic-Con Classic-TV Batmobile. First off is the part list which was taken straight from the generated HTML Building Guide LDD generates. I tried to keep the amount of bricks minimal as possible to make it easy to put together while still taking into consideration Lego

This 'controversy' reminds me of how all the schools were flipping out about Bart Simpson "Don't have a cow, man" t-shirts when I was a kid. If you had Simpson's anything in school they'd send you home to change or confiscate it.

Glad you guys like it. Well this may be a while but I think I have a pretty good idea what I want to tackle next....

7346 - Seaside House; all three models over the last few days when I had a chance to. Let me start off with just how much I love the color of medium blue. ....I love it. Now like every other Creator set, I built the main model or as the manual states the

I loved the 1st one. it Had everything a guy movie should (like the Expendables movies). Sharks, guns, bikinis, hot chicks, chainsaws, flying animals, flying sharks, Tara Reid looking hot despite looking used, Tornadoes, helicopters, no plot, terrible acting, hot chicks, senseless violence, etc... All that was missing was a flying 10179 Kinda like drinking Beast Ice during college. So bad yet so good.

Very nice reduction. Simpson house 159

Just to revisit.... first number is the last 12 months gain according to US Brickpicker... You are welcome 4181 Isla De Muerta +45.29% (+105.10% overall increase) 4182 Cannibal Escape +36.98% (+25.98% overall increase) 4183 The Mill +24.24% (+16.90% overall increase) 4191 Captains Cabin +32.12% (+78.40% overall increase) 4192 Fountain of Youth +27.02% (+81.54% overall increase) 4193 London Escape +43.76% (+17.90% overall increase) 4194 Whitecap Bay +22.47% (+3.69% overall increase)

Between the deal at Hooters and now this talk about cheesecake, I could leave some rather inappropriate comments here. :whistle:

She likely told him he needed an undamaged set and took the dented one out to her car.

I'm waiting for the director's uncut version. The nudity in the last one was impeccable.

Maybe there's a Sharknado in Denmark that shut down the LEGO site...

At a certain point, you have to enjoy when they know how ridiculously stupid it is.

The other guy had 300 sets valued at $50k which averages out to $167 a pop. They weren't stealing speedorz and battle packs. I hope it wasn't the Quizno's dumpster because we all know someone would have found them before she could get back to them..

I used to collect the Shell promo sets, but honestly this is not a good partnership for Lego. Shell has an abysmal environmental record all over the world, not just in the Arctic, and it makes good business sense for a toy company to try and avoid this sort of controversy. If you're selling toys, you want people to associate your product with happy, playful images, not leaking pipelines or sea birds coated in crude oil. It reminds me a little of the Jabba's Palace controversy last Spring, where some German group representing muslims of Turkish dissent said the set was bad because it looked like a mosque in Istanbul (fun fact: before Istanbul was conquered by the Ottoman Empire, back when it was named Constantinople, the "mosque" in question was in fact a church). The funny thing is, they were right. Of course, that's because the source material, the images of Jabba's Palace from RotJ, also looked like the building in question. Anyway, if I were running Lego, I'd steer clear of anything that gets people so riled up.

I understand what you are saying.but the bottom line is that any buyer can say that parts/minifigures are missing.regardless,if you have put NIB,NISB,or anything else.If I'm going to buy a expensive set,from a seller on Ebay,then I would rather check the contents of the box,to see if all is there.It all comes down to honesty & trust.so far,touch wood,I have never been scammed by a buyer or seller.99% of Ebay users are honest & trustworthy.it's that 1%,who will take advantage,and try to pull a fast one.

If you are selling this on eBay I would suggest reading over ebays policy as they are cut and dry about this. This puts the seller at risk for a guaranteed loss. What's to say you list it as new, ship it to the buyer, they remove the minifugures, open a "item not as described" case since the set was opened. What recourse does the seller have? How can you prove that set was all there before you sent it? The only thing you have is your word and we all know how eBay is with cases. The buyers are priority so don't get caught with this, I learned my mistake the hard way. I don't want anyone else having that problem or feeding misinformation to the new people of the forum.

See links in main post. Without discounted GC, 15% off coupon on those sets is marginally useless - you can probably find better deals elsewhere

Oh and thanks again peenutz!

There are 3 left at 80 right now at Amazon.ca

Yes, anything more than a 10% differential isn't worth it, especially on smaller ticket items.

looks great. Might have to build one of these when I get chance :)

For those who don't have every set # memorized , 76005 is "The Daily Bugle Showdown"

I have never ordered something at TRU.nl. Hence, I even never check their website. Too expensive and too less choice.

awesome thanks!!

i tell them that i would rather throw it in the trash then sell it to them for that price.....

So... is LEGO Shop at Home back up and running again?

old Arkham retail was 79.99, current value 400.00 for nisb you tell her that you're buying stock

Shoot, I have been waiting to see that documentary for a few years now but then let myself get sidetracked and forgot all about it. Thanks for the reminder! Now I recall there was supposed to be a film on various indie game developers. I don't know if that was completed yet or even the name. Ugh, I'm so absent minded. :wacko:

Hooters and Cheesecake? Cheesecake and Hooters? Damn I like the sounds of that.

Dont worry the site may be down but the employees are still hard at work processing and shipping your orders.

We're gonna need a bigger shark.

Probably no chance.

And 1 of those gone is extra for me :-| I don't know. It's not widely known as a modular Or...Belgian investors are so clever they know it will fail in secondary market Or... every Belgian investor is on holiday... Or... the price can still be lower? :-| No clue at all why they still sit there

Based on some of the other replies, perhaps the word "scammed" in her reply above should be replaced by the word "caught"?

People need to get a life...

Just ordered 8 from walmart site to store 58 each. Thanks Jaisonline.

Sold my Cafe Corner from my mega-lot between it and the Grand Carousel I'm all in the black with the other 99999999 sets that I have to list still

Twitter can be used in several ways. If you actually want to tweet friends and other members, it works well as a social tool. If you want to use it to find out information and keep up to date with almost instantaneous news, it also shines. I use it for news and don't waste time with idiot reality or movie stars. Howard Stern is the craziest person that I follow, but most are sites like Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Sports Illustrated, and individual sports writers. Don't be intimidated. You don't have to tweet with anyone, just read their posts. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

I'm waiting to see if they drop the price later so I can price match, or PM to another store, or just return. But thank you for the constructive feedback.

dear 4204 the mine, why can't you just retire already! darn you. without regards. ja is online c.c. 10214 Tower Bridge

Every Long Term Investor should have at least 5 or more Sea Cows for Investment, As people will be watching the Lego Movies on DVD for many years down the road. So its not that this Set will just vanish and everybody will just forget about it. Now there is plenty time to get this set, but starting next year it would not hurt to pick one up now and then. And don't forget about the Simpson House to, along with other Exclusives these 2 will do very good once retired. Ed

A lot of people talk about the new Star Wars movies and wonder if they'll they bring back the Falcon or a new Death Star or whatever, but it seems like everyone's missing a point that should be obvious: Lego and Star Wars will want to promote the hell out of the new movies, and the new ships and characters. I think we're more likely to see a whole slew of ships we've never heard of before. Avengers, Guardians, Spider-Man, Lego Movie, you name it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vh78T--ZUxY Awesome man, sometimes I dream about finding this set in the back of some garage sale lol. Perhaps if this investing gig works out I'll spend some of the profits on one.
