PS - my wife sucks. She saw it, grabbed it from my hands, and declared it "hers" Hands down, this will be the quote of the month!!!

new goodies , unfortunately daughter claimed some of them quick. Guess I do owe her for summer warehouse work. Kids are expensive these days!

Ya'all are sleeping through comic con week?! Kira Rey Minifig: http://www.starwars7news.com/2015/07/lego-rey-minifig-leak.html

Today I found only one set, (not as many as LabFreak7) but I been looking for it for quite a while.... $150.00 100% complete, all minifigures, box and manuals.... Behold !!! My precious !!

Ordered the SeaCow today - with gift cards and eBay rewards redeemed paid just over $175 for. I am sure there are better deals to get this but overall I am really stoked!

Scooby stuff is at the Lego booth at Comic Con. It is small - only 301 pieces. I'm told that LEGOLAND California had it in stock too. It can't be far behind from stores. PS - my wife sucks. She saw it, grabbed it from my hands, and declared it "hers"

Photos from the Dimensions demo area. It was a small hotel ballroom. They had about 10 stations set up where you play different levels. There was someone working each station to help you figure things out. They had most of the add-on packs on display (didn't see Joker or Harley). They had an area set up where you could pre-order the game, and if you did, you got a free t-shirt (which was pretty cool, and very hard to resist). There was a small coffee/soda bar. They had the different commercials/shorts running on a big screen up front. And then they had these different "bubbles" set up with physical models of the different realms from the game. Most notably, to me, were a Hill Valley set up, with a Chima warrior driving the Mystery Machine through the thunder storm and crossing the lighting line to get back to the future. The Yellow Brick Road with Oz, and, biggest of all to me, was the Kwik-E-Mart, with a minifigure scale Tardis in front! Enjoy the pics.

I got a new cashier today, who didn't select the "Use TRU CC" option (so only 20% off and no extra 10%). She called over one of the regular cashiers to void it, who was like "you don't know what to do for him??" and told her how I always come in on Thursdays, always get LEGO, and always put $1 or $5 on the TRU card. I need a disguise, my cover's been blown.

Picked up some take-out tonight. They are already running some kind of cross-promotion with restaurants...

Nice! I wouldn't mind it if Craig would list their stuff in my town.

I sold my big craigslist lot I posted about here http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/14528-nice-cl-lot-with-table-in-nc/ I kept the Black Pearl, Indy 7620, Star Wars 7670, and Marvel Lokis Escape. Sold the rest for what I paid originally ($400) and got another $20 for the table. Could have done better piecing it all out but went for the quick flip. Got a free Black pearl to build this weekend and some pizza money, not too shabby.

Wasn't directed at you... It doesn't bother me when someone says something like "just don't see the point for $10-$15" and it's clear they're just taking a rough guess (personal calculator or not... I just do those calcs in my head ;)). Lots of us do it... rather it's when people try to get all detailed down to the last $ on what someone else is making. Who cares what they're making, we don't really know. On the other hand, if you're going to QFLL or SQFLL or WTFCATKQFLL (no, I can't tell you what that means ;)) then you just need to know what you're comfortable with and obviously you thought about it for yourself (something that often doesn't happen around here, and no that shot wasn't directed at @thoroakenfelder because he did think for himself). @thoroakenfelder all I'm really saying is debating down to the finer details how much someone makes on a QFLL is pointless.

That was kind of my point... these "how much did they make" games are pointless. If someone wants to QFLL, let's just trust that a) they know what they're doing, b ) they're satisfied with the potential profit or c) they have no idea what they're doing and who cares if they don't.

Those are Star Wars trees. They carry a heavy markup no matter what kind of wood, err plastic, they're made from!

Looks like they're tightening ship ahead of the SW buying craze. It also seems to signal the swan song for EW... now imagine those little dudes singing that swan song. "Yub nub eee chop yub nub ah toe meet..."

Ewok Village limit at shop at home US reduced from 5 to 1: http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Ewok-Village-10236?fromListing=listing

You are wading through a thick pool of sarcasm. If you'd like to see what people are selling subscribe to this thread. Here is justapilgrim's ebay store

Can you please pick up the 3 pcs of paper off the carpet and take another photo.

Just picked up this bad boy from Kijiji for $500 (used with all pieces and minifigs). Glad the seller was happy to recover his cost and I am happy for buying at retail price

I hope Alpine is already putting together the Bricklink parts list for this?

Honestly no hate from me. Just that only the MF and Xwing were day one purchases for me. Now in thinking I need the entire line.

Quit fighting it, it's ok to like the new stuff.

They have been available for much longer than that over here - likely to be an issue about pricing or restocking.

I'm old school like that, so SQFLL or TQFLL for me. Save that for the "younger" generation. Getting to old for anything faster than QF you should patent that, the QFLL calculator. Probably do well with it. Has ebay and amazon fees and current postage rates all in. Just put in your price and click.

I didn't see your original post, so in case the question was directed to me at all, I have a calculator set up on my phone that takes all of those inputs and spits out a final clearing value. Gives me a quick look at whether it's worth it to QFLL something. For me, punching in the numbers, and making an educated guess to the risk I have to accept, I said no.

Hi, I've been out of the dark ages for about a year now and have started to invest in Lego to fund the hobby. I kept hearing about this website on other Lego-related forums, so I thought and check it out. Looks good and useful. I like LOTR/Hobbit, Modulars/City, Star Wars. Luckily my son collects superheroes, Ninjago and also Star Wars so we can split the cost. Actually, he is quite spoiled Legowise, since buying things for him is also a bit for me, anyway I guess he'll have something to talk about in therapy in 20 years or so. My husband used to do N-gauge railway models but is starting to get the Lego-bug as well, it's catching that one, so I just recently had to break down a couple of my bigger MOC's to make room for new ones. (That was though!). Anyway, look forward to meet some people on here! SW

TRU & Walmart are sold out...

4 per a box mate ;)

Red Dwarf 01 by Matt Webb Starbug by Steven Locke on MOCpages

Please give us a heads up when you are a buyer at $10-15 for salvage purposes

saw the price of this listed at 79.99 , will be nice for the free promo if free with $75 purchase

Well, from what I see, Spooky Girls are selling for $7-9 shipped...which, after fees/tax/shipping (assuming First Class Package), would put you in the negatives to very slim profit. But the price should hopefully go up before Halloween/Christmas. I have over 3 dozen now, but stopped smooshing minifigs to try to focus more on large sets.

I got 35 of those...CS claims that's not even in their database...

Interesting to find a like-mind there!!!

There are hundreds of thousands of parents that need to buy this. They just don’t know it yet. Video game figs for each doctor and 71238-1: Fun Pack: Cyberman. Oh my..

I didn't buy that today but I just received my last order from LEGO Shop at Home EU sale (June 24): (2) 79018 Lonely Mountain for 87.09 € each (90.99 - 3.90 cashback). Btw seal codes are 05S5. Woohoo, I already wrote them off, what a nice surprise!

This is a no-brainer release day purchase for me. Incredible set, beautiful box art, playability, displayability, awesome figs, great theme (who doesn't like ninjas?), all around bad ass set. The only thing that stinks about this set is how long it will take to retire...

Box looks solid. I'm buying it for my own collection for sure.

My favorite line was when Luke didn't recognize the hologram of Anakin. "You didn't look like that five minutes ago." I probably misinterpreted the joke but I took it as a subtle dig on Lucas for messing with the original version.

Clutchers Field by Steven Schapansky (@Legopolis). I know him as host of Radio Free Skaro, a big Doctor Who podcast. But he's also quite the AFOL'er. He's spoken of his 10179 before. I also secretly believe he's a member of this site. Saw this on his Twitter page. It's outstanding.

Like the fact that Alberta Invoice are also written in FRENCH .. "Circulaire maintenant en vigueur Jeudi" and also the back of the invoice is all french !

A 1000... K?

Samba anyone ? Yes, I listened to the 1 hour loop and no, I would still listen to the song afterwards.

Who said you can't mix themes? When Themes Collide by Paddy Bricksplitter

Haunted House $499.99 incl shipping. EBay That was about a year earlier than I expected.

Rat Fink by Adam Yes. Have one.

Erebor MOC Sorry if this has been posted already, but worth a look if you haven't seen it. Absolutely insane build
