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!!! )))

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....

You need to add 10+ to the poll and perhaps Not Enough ;)

It remains to be seen, but most don't want to get caught again in the event of another Rover situation so they're taking the better safe than sorry route

Really glad to hear that man, good for you! Just in time for the good stuff too That photo above definitely shows the exact purchase a lot of people made today, myself included haha

There's a reason why...

From the looks of it, research institute is less desired than exo-suit

My TRU order is showing "Item(s) located in stock" as the status. Fingers crossed.

Picked up 2xexo and 2xresearch (limit 2) at San Mateo (SF Bay Area) this morning. Not crowded, steady stream of geeky afols (me included) picking up the same thing. I asked how many exos they had in back, he said probably enough to last for the day but not the weekend. He also said they expected more exos in the future and the limit was only temporary (like they did with the deloreans), fwiw

And another moderator gets the sarcasm award.

Listen, I really don't want to derail the thread, but I must defend my bread and butter business. Quality car washes like mine do not "mar" paint. We use clean, fresh water to wash a car, unlike a "do-it-yourself" guy with a bucket of dirty water that gets dirtier with each dip of the sponge. I drive top of the line cars and they never get marred, only enhanced. I just wanted to point out that people's time is money and wasting it and water washing a car at home could be avoided. Thanks...

I'll give you one clue....

$99

Scared me there I know this is the exo suit thread but read that as target is allowing orders of 99 units of Mars Rovers. Like Ed said Target never had the Rover but TRU did, not on release date around a month or two after, but you could order 99. This happened twice and they were gone in around ****** hour.

It is not on the retired set list yet. Hopefully they will get to that today.

Figures as much but it seems I should have performed a little more thorough search for the Lego Classic TV Series Batmobile because it turns out about four days ago on the Toyark site that a member posted a really good review with the set physically built! I only wish the poster laid out the bricks for all to see and a more direct shot at the back fender. Still when you take a look at these photos, I'm sure you can agree that with everything considered I managed to do a pretty good job with only a single image from the box to go by. So far the visible mistakes of my interpretation are the turbo jet on the back which turned out to be the 2x2 circle grill part in light bluish gray (plus the f

Limited to 2 orders

I no longer see the SSD on the updated LEGO S@H site.

If anyone had any doubts regarding this set... Alcarin is jumping in, that should wipe them away

Let's assume that at 3am EST it goes live and is sold out by morning. Then, calling Lego, all gone. Fun.

all the new friends sets are also still not up.

Not sure. Less than 20 at target--18 maybe after red card. Yes 16.50

I personally like the "hey babe" controversy the most

Target (6) Friends 41000 - Water Scooter Fun - $2.08 (Retail $6.99) (1) Chima 70005 - Laval's Royal Fighter - $11.98 (Retail $39.99)

hours the first go around, less in subsequent rounds

Thats why you need to just go across and stand on the border and sell sets like some people we know.

finally an official "we f'ed up" message... lets post the number on slick deals under "first 100 callers get a free r2d2"

SSD was available at TRU for about 1 hour during the night, if anyone is interested in keeping tabs on availability
