  7. I missed out on the HH for myself last year, was able to pickup 5 at the time but just got a used one on eBay for $325 which I think was ok considering.

  8. This is hit or miss. I've had the same TRU give me both coupons and price match, then two days later refuse to give both (one or the other) and then a week later give both again. Just depends on the store, the managers and how the cashiers are trained (or not trained). Whether my stacking works or not I am always polite, I never complain, and I act apologetic and friendly when my tactics don't work. I hope everyone does the same.

  9. TRU now has the 75053 Ghost at $71.99. Stack a 20% coupon with 10% TRUSA (that's TRUTH on Saturdays), and it comes to $51.83 (+ tax). 42% off. That's the best price I've seen all year.

  16. The piece count could work. The set could be highly detailed and finished on all four sides, unlike the Modulars. It could also have a super detailed interior. I would love to see it, but I have to wonder if there are not better models to invest 4600 pieces into.

  18. My 4 cases of series 14 from indigo arrived this morning. Extremely fast shipping from Canada. I ordered these two days ago. All four cases are still sealed. They didn't even open the lego cardboard box they came in. The packing slips were all inserted into their own plastic envelope and stuck to the outside of the shipping carton. I am extremely happy with this company, and the price on these can't be beat.

  22. My partner is taking a six month sabbatical (she's a prof) and we're going to Perpignan France for 6.5 months. Was going to post about it closer to as we don't officially have our French visas yet. France isn't part of the British commonwealth so it's a ton of stupid paperwork!

  26. Well, fantastic news. After all this talk with not only here, but the wife and everything, I just received notification from lego that I'm a winner. My only assumption is someone had won and didn't respond in time and so they moved on. I'm so damn stoked. I can't wait to receive my shipping notification.

  27. I'll actually be kinda annoyed if they make this. Of all the popular licenses Lego has access to, they choose Ghostbusters to make a 4600 piece set?

  30. Just finished my third modular and second via bricklink. Spent a hair over $400 on it. Could have been cheaper but I stayed pretty true to the original except for the third floor windows. The front door, dark blue posts next to the doors, blue shirt minifig, and skis over the door were the priciest. I did end up with some extra doors so I can sell them to get it under $400... or do another one...

  31. Thirsty, I'm not trying to call you out but, this post is a perfect example of why anyone thinking about getting into this needs to sell a few items BEFORE they wind up with a portfolio worth $70k. Buying is easy, finding deals is a thrill. Selling, no matter what platform you're on is hard. Anyone doing this needs to know that. Good luck, I've sold on eBay for over a decade and am, for the most part, happy with it.

  36. TRUSA didn't start yet? When I was at my store Thurdsday, the cashier said it starts today. I was also doubtful and, I even asked her, "Are you sure?" And she said, "Yes". ... of course... she could be wrong... and who knows if TRU cc's are even working in store today? I have had no problem using coupon on any item that ends in "$X.99"

  39. It was. Man I played with that toy like crazy. You had a trigger to make the blades spin and there was a working winch. Good times. He didn't because if they had then there would be fees owed towards the original actor and some other litigations I have no idea about. For all intents and purposes, they did capture the essential likenesses and attitudes of the characters. Interestingly Ernie Hudson actually wanted to replay his role for the cartoon but they went with Arsenio Hall instead.

  40. Sold $9 grand US in the last three months. All on ebay, all going for hammer price. I'm quite happy with the results, had a couple duds, but for the most part a very profitable endeavor. I'm on a project out in Revelstoke BC so I am away from home for the next couple weeks, will resume selling going into the middle of October. Looking to unload a good $10 grand if I can between here and Christmas, probably get rid of a lot of my duds and replace stock with better sets. Going to blow out some discount Brickmania stuff too if you guys are interested.

  41. Finished the last of The Force Awakens sets with the Snowspeeder set. Of all the sets this looked the least appealing to me but it's much bigger and better looking in person and I really really like it. I still don't get the functionality of an opening top vehicle in the snow though. If I had to rate the sets in order it would be: 1. Poe's X-Wing (a surprise to me since I wasn't originally planning to get this set) the cockpit piece and color scheme is amazing. 2. Millennium Falcon - with the figures being a part of my vote for it here 3. Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle - even though the wings are not at the right angle it is a fairly easy mod to correct and of all the sets this one felt like a UCS set and a fun build. 4. Snowspeeder - like the way it looks like a hovering boat with giant engines, snow trooper is great 5. Rey's Speeder - love the colors, fun little build 6. Tie Fighter - the new printed pieces in the dark red are great pieces 7. First Order Transporter - I was so disappointed by this set. I wanted to love it, it was one of the first that I purchased but it just doesn't work for me. Disappointed but the figure selection is pretty good.

  42. What about the theory that there was not time to release a new set .... there are millions of new Lego buyers since this was last released they missed out from Lego view point is it that horrible that the option was release no set or re release this one .... maybe that product manager thought better to please 3 million new winter village fans since the last time this set was released or to produce no set at all If I had no resources no other time and wanted to please a great many people I would have done the same best decision is debatable real world reality decisions get in the way of trying to please everyone

  43. The one and only thing that interests me is if it comes with an Ecto-1 or not. In the one this person is selling it is not included. http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/kinderen-en-baby-s/speelgoed-duplo-en-lego/m963899502-lego-modulars-custom-ghostbusters-hq.html?c=8c285449651fa109c354bbabe740c1b&previousPage=lr

  44. I bought two of the 7678 advent calendars from the news thread. $23, why not? I have 4 kids of Lego age, now in December they can each open a calendar each day (new city, SW, Friends, and now 7678). No fighting!!!

  48. ​Even taking fees into account, eBay may still be the better option (if you're not top rated, expect 13% fees from USA buyer, as opposed to Bricklink where you should expect 6% fees from USA buyer). It all depends on the set. Evaluate both and choose the best for you and your sets...I use whichever to my best financial advantage, which usually means Bricklink for me. But not always.
