  2. Woke up at 3:00am and checked my phone (Don't judge me lol). Noticed I had sold another Wall-E and went back to bed. Finished packing the one set and when I was about to print the label noticed the buyer (From Japan, Global Shipping Program) had actually bought 3 of them. Now that was a nice way to start the morning.

  3. Someone should add a "Swooshability" rating to the set review categories. Would this score better or worse than Green Grocer?

  4. My WM had 4 REs on the shelf this morning along with stock of all JW sets in groups of 4. Looks like they've only been bringing them out in small batches so they don't get gobbled up. Almost like they are trying to keep life support on the stock they have... RE codes were still 22R5

  6. He's just saying a 400 dollar haunted house wont appreciate as much as a death star. I am not sure i agree that the death star will out perform the haunted house. Assuming equal price points. Death star has the brand going for it. Haunted house has scarcity. I think scarcity is going to win out. I wanted to snag some haunted houses before it hits 500+ because i see it at 1000 in 2 years. Will the Death star even retire before then?

  10. I hope it's not and that it's OT related. I really want to see a good Hoth set as all the bases to this point have been very underwhelming. Direct to Consumer

  11. Take with a grain of salt, but I just got off phone with LEGO CS asking if Series 14 minifigures is really done (e.g. no more from shop at home) and the rep told me that they should be back in stock within 2 weeks. Played the part of the concerned father of little Timmy, worried he wouldn't get his zombie cheerleader without his father having to step foot in a target or walmart and that I preferred to buy them from shop at home with VIP.

  13. I thought I would resurrect this thread since its been a year since this debacle took place. I'm happy to report that I'm back on eBay and sales are picking up! I want to thank everyone in this thread for their advice, reassurance, and support. It turns out the best advice was just to lay low for a while and use my original account when the time felt right. I started selling on eBay in May. The summer was slow but things started to really pick up towards the end of August. So far I've sold a SSD, a Lone Ranger polybag, and a few sets in between. It's been fun a ride so far. Thanks again to everyone on Brickpicker. I would have been lost without your advice and input. What a great community we have here. I am grateful to be a part of it.

  16. There is no way I would buy a Haunted House for $400 now, and returning a Death Star to get one to me is a big mistake. The Death Star will rise fast when it retires in a few months or so, just look of all the crap I heard when I kept saying get SSD,HH, etc. Now with 46 SSD and 62 HH and I do have 56 DS most thought I was crazy.

  17. Like others have said, I don't recall seeing Sold Out for something so new rather than (Temp) Out of Stock. This series is more seasonal than the rest, but 2 days would be crazy to be gone already. With all this talk, the fear suckered me into another Minfiguresplus order. I'm sure I'm not alone.

  18. That's good to see. Probably going to be packaging this with Haunted Houses next month.

  19. A New Hope was based on just about every piece of worldwide heroic mythology (Lucas was a fan of Joseph Campbell's Hero with a Thousand Faces), so why not?

  20. Everybody's been saying how much they love this entire series.. Granted it's a good series, but the gargoyle is a cheep cop-out imho. They should've given him an accessory... They could've been more imaginative than throwing in another Frankenstein monster again, and the (modestly altered) zombie.

  21. Sold out is definitely the wrong phrase for something that they plan to restock. It sounds permanent. Poor grammar. Shame on you Lego [emoji88]

  26. Embrace it, man...adding wings to seemingly unflyable sets could become known as "Alpinemapization" ...think of all the mod sets you could sell! (I'd like 5% of your gross for the idea)

  29. It was a bit of a tongue in cheek comment... I'm sure that they were provided with decent details/sketches but it's butt ugly and it most certainly doesn't do justice to some of the recent designs LEGO has produced. That and it appears they missed a big play feature in how the wings fold into a V shape for swooshing... I mean come on! If you can't swoosh it like the movie, then I don't want it! Maybe it's a neat build, maybe it's the only way to get Kylo Ren (for now) but the only thing uglier is the submarine set. Yes, that's my opinion... some will love it, I don't. I also think the Kylo Ren minifigure is ugly too... What is with that big oversized helmet? It is totally the wrong shape IMO. This isn't Space Balls, its Star Wars.

  32. I've sold two complete sets of Series 13 minifigures & one set of Lego Movie minifigures in the past ~24 hours. I think the Series 14 release must have sparked a little interested in past sets.

  33. But here's the thing....if you want the Kylo Ren figure, which looks awesome, this is your only ticket. And I like how the end of Rey's "staff" looks like it will nicely hold a lightsaber blade at some point. Coincidence? Pshaw....

  34. For a character as important as Kylo Ren I too would have expected his ship design to be more agressive and pointed. Even this concept art is better imo.

  35. Hi from Jacksonville, Florida. Been collecting Legos for a few years now but just got around to posting on Brickpicker. I have hundreds of new sets sealed, various from Star Wars to City. I like building custom sets and my last endeavor was the Star ship enterprise. Came out pretty good but needs some tweeking. I also built a lamp with one of the new movie themes. It is not glued. and is inside a glass base. The lamp shade is also made of legos and it is a custom made house. Will post some pictures when I have more times. Also have hundreds of used sets and a lot of star wars. I have about a hundred thousand parts and about five hundred minifigs. Hope to be around for awhile.

  42. Got a case… but, only had 2 werewolves in it, and instead there were 5 gargoyles. Regardless, i've managed to land 5 complete sets with the addition of this case, as I also found these early at a Target when some of their employees disregarded the "out on september 1st only" stickers… Can almost make a sixth complete set, if I get a few figs.
