I bought a mint sealed box Lego 7627 Indiana Jones Temple of the Crystal Skull to go with my Lego 7199 Indiana Jones Temple of Doom and my Lego 7623 Indiana Jones Temple Escape. All 3 are in mint sealed perfect condition. I wanted the 3 flagship sets I am an Indiana Jones fan and a Lego nut so it goes perfectly together. Chewie we are home. Wait um er that is for my other passion.

Picked up another haul of the Jurassic World poly from TRU here in Canada :

I think my Helm's Deep has suffered an attack by Shelob!

I think it has been picked through if no figs included.

If you have a car and a few free hours I recommend checking this out, kinda a poor mans Mesa Verde, but still very cool. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montezuma_Castle_National_Monument

​There sure is...

I always order quantities matching the content of the official Lego distribution boxes, and Walmart then ship the complete box. For example, if you order Witch King Battles, place orders with a quantity of 8 each.

Might be an excellent idea ;)

Also I found this one that better fits the UCS version in size.

​

Although it may be annoying to you, It is within eBay policy to do that. This is part of the risk with auction listings. I bid the min amount from time to time just to see if it sticks You do not need a reason to block anyone, but I save my block list for the non payers and scammers

Bunch of Targets in my area marked this one down from 30% off directly to 70% off today, so I picked up one: 70808: Super Cycle Chase $14.98

​Seeing this picture wishes Lego would, now that R2D2 might retire, release a C3PO set, in the same scale as R2D2 so they could stand right next to each other. Can you image the number of golden bricks?

​It just makes you jeoulsy, that's all.

​LOL! I thought I moved a similar one like this yesterday!!! Dude, take it to the "What to buy" thread, that's what it's for... Risky risky, I have my finger on the delete key.

​We just did this same exact exercise yesterday...Placing the same question in a different thread doesn't make it a new question...

Bricks is Bricks. we have many, many containers, collections , some built, some partially built, but mostly just bricks. it was always fun to sort out and find mini-figures and other non-brick pieces. We have about 75 containers this way, several are sorted by color, as we built, we could just go to the color and look for what we needed when we built from instructions that either came with the container, we have over 6 feet of instructions stacked tall. One other word, is when you do find a non-sorted container and it comes with instructions, ASK if these instructions came with these bricks? Sorting if you plan on trying to build from what is in the container: Date the container/s, mark #1, 2, etc. pick out the non-bricks/special parts, mini-figures, keep instructions together with the container/s. Put mini-figures in a plastic bag same with special parts and also keep together in the containers. This way you will know whats what with a little practice and you may be able able to build. Save time/make money: If instructions match the container contents, Check the value of the sets USED. on Brickpicker and e-bay. Unless you want it, don't build it, just part out the bricks. Many times with Mini-figures included in the containers alone. you can tell what sets/themes you have. Now back to your question: Is $600 worth it for 110 lbs.??? Right off NO!!! 110lbs should be about 5 to 6 containers, I'm figuring the semi-clear ones from Cosco. The smaller the brick the more the container will weigh. When buying Remember: No Mini-Figures, No buy! Always bring along your empty container to pour out the one/s for sale. Look for Mega Blocks. Mixed in or whole containers. They also have to be Clean, no sticky stuff, Hair/ animal or human. If you continue to buy Lego in containers this way, you will find all kinds of stuff. Ask yourself the question? Am I looking for Just Bricks? For me I would stay away from it. Worth Maybe $200. maybe. Advertise for Lego in your local, you are going to make a few mistakes, but thats how you learn. My wife and I bought a container once in our early days of buying a container for $50, we carefully picked a couple of hands full of mini-figures and threw the rest of away, it was too dirty to clean.

$250 if you own a bricklink store, otherwise it's a lot of work unless you see instructions for high end sets (carousel, modulars, landmarks, etc)

Cant believe my luck yesterday. Picked up a QAR brand new in sealed box for $173 including tax from a store in Moscow.

​Yep! I'm working on doing it for all my displayed sets! I'm a lazy duster.

​I am open to everything except for the Grand Canyon because it's just too long of a day trip. I am going to try to watch a baseball game, sneak in an early round of golf, and visit Tombstone on my way out to El Paso

in n out burger.... and go to the Westgate entertainment area ( Arizona Cardinals Stadium) in Glendale is where the last super bowl was and there are several restaurants fountains etc right near the stadium.

Best part is, it goes back together after you smash it on the ground to get your money out...

​I guess I can try to part out on set and see how it goes. Seems like a hit and miss thing. Thank you all for the responses. It's appreciated!

​I reported this to eBay but the CS guy said the only thing that wasn't OK was the "new" & then "to be built" (not new) aspect, so NAD. I think the entire listing is bizarre...

​I wish they can send some over here in the US

​It is a tan head on 75055. The new one is grey.

​Me too, but I tried carrying it around the street and I was getting funny looks. Apparently it's considered strange, who knew????

​And people making unsolicited offers and asking idiotic questions.

One of the Space sets, 6927 All-Terrain Vehicle from 1981.

From a recent ebay haul of Classic Town & Space, 6362 Post Office from 1982.

​You did see what too many droids can do to a species. "Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise"

Very perceptive Padawan! Just teasing... That was my first Indy set and is suspended with clear wire flying over my desk. Lost tomb was my second set. After those I stopped opening most of my Lego sets and became a mint sealed purist collector. One exception I bought R2D2 on opening day and admired the box until last Christmas and opened it and built it with the family. I have 20 more of him stored away but perhaps that makes me a bad guy according to some opinions (not pointed at anyone) in the Target thread lol

My auction just got bid up higher than the exact same item I have in a fixed price listing (ends sunday) Description even points them to my other listing so I wouldn't have to pay for a buy it now insertion fee

Bought a used 31005 Construction Hauler at an estate sale today for $2.

So.many.grey.pieces.

If you don't want to part them out, then they would make a great "bonus" set to include with some higher priced Lego Movie sets to make your listings stand out from the pack. Nice find.

​Nice find! Where did you pick those up at?

Try putting the minifigures online for sale and open the sets only when you sell. I intend to buy one set just for the minifigures so there's that:)

That's so rad! Looks "vintage"!

Edge & Son Modular Butcher Shop by Steve Price

Haha, I was thinking the exact same thing! But even though PS has been under siege, it's proving a little hard to kill.

Make them return it for full refund, or open case and fight it

​Wow, I kind of feel dumb not knowing you could do this and the seller you have there is one of the main culprits. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the article Jaisonline. Call me crazy, I Kinda Like the old version better.

​I think there will way too many new STAR WARS vehicles and characters to waste time on older UCS remakes.

Check out this display case for my Lego ornament. I used a large slider box for trading cards and double-sided tape under the ornament base to keep it in place.

I totally Lord Businessed my 2 year old last night with the shrieking shack. I just shut her down and told her I'd build it when she's asleep cause I'm a fun parent like that.

It won't hurt. Dino themes are quite solid performers to begin with.
