That's a whole lotta girlie sets. Heartlake Lighthouse sounds interesting. I'd hate for the bulb to burn out and a whole Dolphin Cruiser full of party goers crashes into Heartlake Reef.

Got my first shipment.

My stock 2 weeks ago from TRU. Just had time open them up last night.

Remember when I told you not to place that Amazon order? I told you that you would thank me later.

That is why, when you buy a copy for yourself to build you should open it right away. Do not wait too long. Cause then the value is increased and you will have problems opening it. No matter what, it is difficult. I bought the 10231 Shuttle Adventure MISB and the 4184 Black Pearl MISB to build it. But cause of the move to the new house I cannot open them now. I have to wait. Prices already went up since a month or two ago. So I need to hurry up!

I guess I forgot to post these. I went with the smaller flame to save room on my desk.

Holy Hot Dogs! Fill your freezers!!! On August 28th, head on over to Sonic for $0.50 Corn Dogs all day!! No coupon needed. This will be at all locations. Don

I love under the radar killings like these.

Hero Factory, Surge, Pyrox, Frost Beast for $41 shipped. I bought them for much less than that.

If anyone wants to see what the official instructions look like then this Flickr gallery will help. Probably easier too since I can embed it into the post and you can go through it same as a slideshow. You can even see the parts list as well. It isn't a whole lot different than what I did a few posts back but this might be easier to follow for those of us more accustomed with Lego's setup. http://www.flickr.com/photos/neoape/sets/72157646320899458/

I particularly enjoy the messages that instruct me what to do. For example I received the following eBay PM the other day: "pls offer $60 for this item, thanks!" Well, since you used an exclamation point, maybe I will...you seem friendly enough!

Well... if it was a good buy at $55.98, it's a better buy at $48.98, no? http://shop.lego.com/en-US/The-Croc-Swamp-Hideout-70014?fromListing=listing Tempting... but this would be my first Chima purchase... just don't think I want to start into another theme. Also, if they have stacks of them at ToysRUS for $70, you can take a 20% coupon, and a 10% Thursday and get almost down to this price. For me, this may just be one of those that "got away".

Not a high roller at all. It was a Risk Vs. Reward decision. Low risk with free target GC, yes I could have bought more Charmine, Bounty, and Tide, but with the chance of this set being another Rover, "Limited" in the catalogue, limit of 2 at LEGO Shop at Home, the designer saying it was one run and done and other factors I figured I would go for it. We shall see how it works out in a few months,

And when it's that time of the month, she'll let it flow.

Did you see full rumored set list here? http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=127408271#post127408271 Pirates Large Ship! Yay

I agree, but I would probably do it the other way around. I would first make sure I get a well preserved, but cheap used set and then sell the MISB set for more after fees than I paid for the used one.

Great post, redeemed. I would sell those MISB sets, and head to BL or CL to pick up a used copy of the same set. To me, there's no magic in cutting the seals on a set. Pocket the difference and still have a great set for buiding. Then when it's sat for a year in the basement, you can sell the used set for more than what you bought it for!

Don't wait for discounts on this set(maybe double VIP in Oct). The last LOTR/Hobbit movie is December. You can pretty much well kiss this theme goodbye after the first of the new year.

LOL, maybe we need to change this thread to '6862 - Superman Vs Power Armour Lex EOL speculation'

Started building Fort Legoredo last night

My seven year old is putting this set together by himself for me, so far all I've done is place the rubber bands on the legs. The same lot also has a 6210 Sail Barge, I'll have him do that next. After that onto the 6212 X-Wing. I think I'll surprise him and let him keep that one as payment for helping me out. This is the easiest lot I've done, since he's doing all the work. 7675 AT-TE

I popped into Wal-Mart where I've been watching some older sets for discounts. They have an entire 2-sided isle of legos marked down and an additional 50% off the marked price. I spent $2000, but scored 10 Lego 9398 for $45 each; 3 Millenium Falcons for $32 each; SW Jek 14 $15 each; and 5 Goblin Attack Sets for $22 each. I also grabbed a bunch of smaller sets for kid's Christmas gifts. I broke the bank, but I'm set for Christmas selling. The only set I left behind was TMNT Shell Raiser. I figure if they have to discount them when the new movie just came out than TMNT must be a loser. Now I have to bust the blow dryer to pull off the clearance stickers without damaging the sets.

She's just one of the folks who gains enjoyment writing to sellers to tell them their prices are too high. You get them sometimes. I always seem to end up behind them in the line at the supermarket. You can ignore their messages, or send back a polite, "Thank you for your interest, but this is our best price at this time."

I had to change shirts, my face was becoming too recognizable...lol.

The shield season 1 episode 1. Best show of all time.

If u have to worry about your respective investments you're in the wrong Game. I buy and forget. I have other things to''worry'' about....

Architecture - Lincoln Memorial and the Flatiron Building. Yes! Friends sets - notice a "repeat" of older sets; houses, beauty shops, vet clinics, etc. If you've got the older stuff, you may want to unload now before the new stuff replaces it. City - Snowplow. Love it. Creator - Grocery should be referring to the Toy & Grocery Store.

From a financial standpoint, I am most excited about Elsa as well. From a build standpoint, I have a lot of people around me that love the 80s-90s Disney movies and the Underwater Castle could be a really good one depending on what it looks like (Please let there be Ursula - great for parting out) My girlfriend will be all over that one and anything Beauty and the Beast - there could be a lot of profit in these sets for older girls (depending on how they look)

I definitely did some stupid stuff in college, no one cared though since I didn't play football.

Hmm, interesting how most sellers repriced their RIs on Amazon... More than half of the sellers are now above $109 point. Do they know something? Or most of them are us? 8 sellers (out of 28) priced it above $149 BTW, Todd Seimer? Get on with a program, will ya? Or better yet, focus on your photography perhaps, and maybe give RI as a gift to some bride that into science...

Great idea, TOK! Do you need any help from other members to research for other reviews?

I received on monday the first Exo I ordered on release day and the seal was 30+. I have 3 more backordered and I haven't seen it come back this week in LEGO Shop at Home Spain.

When in Texas I check out Whataburger. Man, their burgers are the bomb!

Erm excuse me, I think you've got enough Lego. Some people are so greedy!

Thanks for sharing

So glad I hadn't learned about this when the promo started in June. I might have had to go tricker treating as Fat Bastard.

my wife has a habit of sorta chewing gum loud (w/o realizing it) so i played this video for her... she wasn't pleased.

I did make one minor change to the front using a light bley 1x8 door rail.

Man that would be a quick way to possible pick up defects though. lol.

It is true that TB is not as rare and there is loads of them, but hey! LEGO is ever more popular now between adults and kids and people in general! So despite the massive number of sets produced, there is a bigger customer base for us. Not ideal, but hey...its not the end of the world,is it.. Saying that...I was driving along the motorway several months ago and I was changing the radio stations looking for some decent music to listen to and heard the Radio presenter saying something very interesting. Apparently, David Beckham is a huge LEGO fan and loves building Lego and the Tower Bridge was the last thing he built over that weekend in question. Whenever he is on a trip overseas he locks himself in the hotel room and builds lego! Awesome! If all the footballers and their wives and mistresses (and the whole entourage for that matter) could be lego fans...that would be good enough for me ))) I've got 5 and stopped buying them long time ago as there is no sight where this thing will retire. Looks like forever to me...

I really like the curved slopes in all of it's configurations. They really help define the shape of a model, expecially vehicles.

I'm not in Chima stuff but I feel a high investing potential in this big baby.
