That 4 can only mean one thing. THE HORSEMEN ARE BACK

Just called Lego and they can help me out. I got 108 Parts from them for

Picked these up today.

Ummmm, Santa's vacation home, duh!!!

I'm really surprised that this set didn't last through October 31st. Seeing that it is a Halloween set, I would have thought that lego would have kept it until then.

The Lego Starwars 10143 Death Star II is an iconic Lego set that most of us know. I have been on the lookout for this for quite awhile and whenever i saw one i couldn't get it for a right price or i got sold under my nose again. Yesterday i lost another auction on this set so i decided to start Bricklinking it. I wan't to see how much its gonna cost me to collect all the part. At first i'm going to try to keep it to Dutch stores only and i'm already 2.000+ bricks in. The reason i decided to start this topic is that perhaps you guys like to follow the process, i will keep updating this topic till this set is standing at my desk! (I'm going to try at least ) Tell me if you guys like the idea, if it is worth updating on haha. Currently working on sorting the parts using Brickstore. Collecting Bricklink Carts in seperate files.

Ya I phoned Lego, I changed my address to include a Box # (I recently got a new one) and the girl on the phone said that their system doesn`t liek it because they don`t ship to PO Boxes in Canada. She said the status should change within 24-48 hours (we removed the PO Box from the address). So, no ban for me, not yet at least haha.

was hxckid with you there? it is hard for me to picture the dialog... [holleman walks into wendy's restaurant] holleman: I don't want to eat your food hardly speaking any english cashier with questionable immigration status: please no shoot! [holleman walks out with entire contents of the register, and finds some coupons there]

Obviously there is more money to be made on holding these sets long-term, but not everyone can afford to have their money tied up that long. Everyone has a different budget for this. The point I was trying to make is that if anolian had access to multiples of this set and couldn't afford to hold them all long-term, he might as well buy the rest and flip them now for $60-80 profit each (according to his calculations). Ed's advice is spot on though for making the most bank. He's been doing this a long time and the man knows his stuff.

Triple VIP points and the Holiday promo set #2 were an awesome combo from LEGO. The Walmart Black Friday 30% specials were pretty good since some sets were already discounted. I scored a decent supply of Uruk-Hai Army and Power Armor Lex for nearly 50% off.

I recently returned all of these I bought. I have a feeling I will not regret that. Bought another R2 with the money.

The MF line is as much an alternative to HH as random fire themed sets to the Fire Brigade modular.

Not sure if anyone has seen these before. http://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3312894/halloween-treat-horror-icons-get-lego-treatment/

Sorry buddy...... you get a cool forum badge though haha

I have to ask, are you really running a Lego investment business from Antarctica? The shipping charges must be monstrous...

I want want want this: A City set with a zoo theme. Big $100 zoo set Smaller sets could be: Reptile house Monkey house African savanna (another big set) Merry go round Gift shop Zoo train Petting zoo Could even have real small sets for: Hotdog stand Popcorn cart Animal packs until you run out This is a city theme that they could retire sets as they introduce new animals. If they relaunch things every few years like a monkey house have different monkeys and drive the value of the old sets The kids love the animals and try to make their own zoo stuff we just don't have enough

The announcement is that after months of extensive surveillance Lego has finally found every reseller and is preparing to exterminate all at once with one big swoop of the hammer.

STAR WARS and City sets have remakes all the time. That is because LEGO wants to reintroduce these popular sets to a new group of kids on an annual basis. LEGO has worked this way for the past 15 years...at least. If they remake the 10179, so what? It's time, isn't it? The new movies are coming out and the Falcon is in it. It would be foolish not to reproduce the best LEGO set ever made. This has zero bearing on any of the hundreds of other top sets that will never be reproduced.

Headlines: TLC riles up entire Lego reselling world by purposefully devaluing promotional items via extended availability! Also secretly reintroduces high value promos that everyone thought were already retired! Imminent doom forecasted!

Yes I am starting to wonder how many of the Spaceman I am going to end up with and if I should start clearing some of them at the $20 each. Currently I plan to continue to accumulate and hold.

Yes, I called and was told limit of 5. I wanted to order 31 to get free shipping. So they were $2.48 each plus $4.95 shipping, $7.35 after $10 VIP. The order number was not the usual nomenclature but similar to the order number when you get your VIP card. 300XXX not YZ123

If everywhere were to hold on to their sets, prices won't really increase by much.

That's how folks here in US hoarded martian manhunters when big zoo and vampyre hearse were still orderable, but LEGO Shop at Home insisted they they don't have anymore. Not very ethical, but hey, how long should it take them to stick proper status on a web page??

Ed, let people do whatever they want with their money / own Lego sets. We can't save everyone so why try every week? I usually only offer advice to those who ask for it.

they should buy from us...

And back to Sold Out in US... Very familiar song and dance... sneaked one order in , just because

5 mini T1 Polybags from LEGO Shop at Home shipped.

I've been thinking of bricklinking this set myself. I've been wanting one to display with my SSD.

i would imagine Mars Curiosity Rover, Zombies and Butterfly Beauty Shop are also easy to produce, yet here we are...

I picked up some at Walmart, and some at Walgreens. They were hidden behind some Simpsons CMFs. I don't have the receipt here with me at work, but scanning the UPC with the walmart app shows unknown availability at all locations near me.

I did 3 of all of those.

Sorry if you did not pick up my sarcasm detector. My I digress comment was a way of joking that perhaps we should move along (because earlier I commented about how I do not like Chima not really because of being off topic). But I am impressed with your vocabulary. I had to look it up. 1: of, relating to, or being a pedant(see pedant) 2 : narrowly, stodgily, and often ostentatiously learned 3 : unimaginative, dull

It is a trap!

I hope it's a fake... Although the piece that is used behind the 4 is one that is consistently used with Bionicle sets. My only thought is, it's a sad day when a Bionicle announcement is considered "huge"...

Only if the last one has been bought on a friday. It is supposed to mean "Shop at Home". The & should be a @.

I definitely think everyone else who does this should quit. I will take one for the team and handle the world's reselling after you all leave. That's the kind of stand up guy I am.

Kind of hard to do cheerleading without leg articulation :P

Same here the boxes alone are cooler than the new sets lol

Cleaned out my local supply depot, i did leave them a couple sets for the general public. ...lol.

At Phila Brickfest Live, my son and I picked up a NISB Harry Potter 4768-2: The Durmstrang Ship with Bonus Minifigures (Target Exclusive) for a decent enough price.

Masters of the Universe immediately came to mind when I saw the title of this thread. That would be a double dose of nostalgia!

Im gonna stand outside an Apple store and ho.d a sign "do uou know how much Apple actually pays for an iphone??,! Thatll show em. You didnt build that, somebody else.....built that

I really like a few of the American art pieces at the Art Institute of Chicago including this one: Nighthawks Edward Hopper
