I see your skiffs, and I raise. To 238.

I thought you were smarter than that. I own a car wash and washing a car yourself is a waste of time. Find a reputable local car wash and use it. Pay your $7-$10 and go buy a 10188. Think about it...How long does it take you to drag a hose and bucket/soap/sponge/towels out and wash and dry a car properly? 45 minutes? 1 hour or more to do it correctly? Then you have to put the stuff away and you waste water/chemical in the meantime. Basically, your hour of time was worth $7-$10. If I said to you that I will pay you $7 an hour for financial advice, you would tell me to get lost. Time is money...Ed Mack "Tip of the Day."

anyone else notice that superman vs lex power armor was changed to retiring soon?

Guys, just built one. Check it out!

What's better than getting a job offer with more pay and the ability to buy Lego again, and return to Brickpicker? A wonderful stash at Lego West Hartford! Limit 2 folks!!! )))

If you didn't see the links at the top of the page. Here they are: ORDER THE EXO SUIT #21109: USA | UK | CA ORDER THE RESEARCH STUDIO #21110: USA | UK | CA

I'm not taking any chances. I love this set so I picked up a handful from Target on top of two from Shop at Home. I'm happy this isn't like the Rover. I might order more. Now I won't feel bad cracking one or two open with my son when they arrive. This set has playability written all over it, not "exclusive/investors only." Investors may whine, but this Dad is super happy.

All that's left is the roof and billboard. I will probably finish that up tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker

**Updated with more behavioral examples** 8/1/2014 Many folks ask questions about "what does this product status mean?" Many folks use these terms interchangeably, and that's not helpful to the community discussion. These terms all seem to have distinct and meaningful differences. I think we can learn from them, and their subtle differences. I thought i'd put a post together to gather those statuses (Statii?) and some interpretations of their meaning. Perhaps we could also include examples of how products behaved while in those statuses. Obviously these statuses will change with time, so feel free to suggest better examples as things change.

Am I the only one finding these hilarious ? :D :D

fight sarcasm with sarcasm... its a win win

Nah, that was a picture of a dog. Madd's answer to that picture, now that was sarcasm:

Sarcasm is a form of art. This here is just plain fun. Don't mess it all up.

The 21104 NASA Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover.

My Exo Suits have already shipped from Target

You heard it here first everyone!!!!! Waddamon says the death star is retired!!!!!!!!!!!!

While you are at it, ask them where the F is SSD...

Some of you folks are obsessed! Almost comical reading this stuff

2 ssd arrived from Walmart today. Each in its own perfectly sized and padded box . Minty fresh.

What's this controversy with Jabba's Palace? It sounds stupid.

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....

I went to the Lego store at downtown disney in California and a little past lunch time and the shelf was empty. I asked an employee and he had to go to the back to get more. he said there were plenty more in the back. There were actually a lot of little kids half my size walking around downtown disney with the exo-suit that i could see.

Its hilarious how worried some of you are about shipping confirmation. I haven't laughed this hard in a while. You guys need to relax. If you placed an order within the limits then there is nothing to worry about.

they were on backorder/out of stock immediately as of 12:39 when they went live

Wait, was thats sarcasm? I'm beginning to feel like this...

nope as do i also. i spit coffee out of my mouth and spilled some out of the mug when saw the dup posts for my dup post rant.

Target raising price means it's retiring!

Why not? If the green classic space figs stay exclusive to this set then it should do just as well as the rover.

Back on topic...It would appear that the 10188 and GE are several months behind the SSD, so plan accordingly.

2 bucket method! Thread officially derailed.

No one ever said this on this forum or anywhere else. Codes have SOME importance in SOME regards. The only really ridculous thing about them is people making themselves look like idiots by religious-like denying they could have ANY relevance. Even Ed noted that in some cases knowing the codes could help. What is so hard about just accepting they are not 100% irrelevant?

Different strokes for different folks. For people who don't care how an automatic car wash mars paint vs a proper hand wash/detail, the $15 car wash is great. To the rest (admittedly much smaller population), an automatic car wash is a nightmare and the extra time, money, and effort of a proper detail is worth it. But in the end, people will find worth in what they find worth in. I'm sure a majority of the world won't understand why people spend big bucks on plastic toys like Lego but we do it anyway.

Yeah - you can only buy one per order.

I had a similar thing happen on a previous order, I called within 15-25 minutes after placing an order to add something the cs rep said that the warehouse recieves the order within minutes of placing the order online and you only have several minutes to call and cancel or change. Ironically it then took another 3 business days for my order to be sent out.

It is already at Target. TRU has listing but it is not available for sale. I do like price mistake for it at TRU though!

My source said it was retired in the US, so once again this makes sense and this type of activity has happened in the past. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

Expected ship date 26 Sep

Same here. Think it's gone (on the US LEGO Shop at Home Lego site). In the EU sill available. Probably last chance to get it at a discount: http://www.thystoys.nl/lego-star-wars/23577-10221-lego-star-wars-super-star-destroyer-673419145701.html#

BTW, does LEGO Shop at Home have a history of not getting people their polys if they order early? I read this somewhere, and now I'm concerned enough to want to buy in-store...not to mention the fact it is not early right now at all... Edit: And the site is back down again... Re-Edit: And it's back up...

That's something I never get, and even dislike. There is no one to give applause to in a movie theater. It is a movie, a recording. It is not a place to clap. I once even watched a movie where people clapped right between scenes, disturbing. Now - if one of the people involved in the movie would actually be there, that would be another issue ...

No wonder LEGO has their phone lines closed at 12:00 am...

Perfect quality 10179 in original shipping box. Now I can rest peacefully

I expect this set to sell for $150 or a little more by Christmas 2015. Maybe it will reach those kind of prices by this Christmas. Who knows, but the one of the reasons that the set is doing so well is because of the limited availability. If more Rovers were made, I would predict that it would take a long while for it to climb that high.

Someone shouldn't have posted it. lol

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

My pleasure. The banner has been removed from the LEGO Shop at Home, maybe because the stock is running low. I received my first one this morning, I did not have opened it yet. The box is so soft to the touch, it's really nice.
