Hey Now!

I just want some for my Katy Perry Super Bowl display.

Had a banner day yesterday (Saturday). I'm just recovering from it. 1. Fell asleep Friday night in my 3 year old's bed with him. Was so zonked that I slept there all night. Oops. Woke up with back and neck pain. 2. Went downstairs and found that the cats (6 month old kittens), had knocked the entire hamster habitat off a shelf. Everything upside down, tubes everywhere. 3 year old is crying up a storm, worried that the hamsters are gone. (Fortunately, the hamsters were still in their cage). Spent the next 45 minutes (at 5:30 in the morning, thank you early riser 3 year old) cleaning up the cages, and putting everything back together. Guess it was time to change the bedding in there anyway. 3. Take the 3 year old out to start a couple of Walmart runs, drop off some Girl Scout cookies at some friend's house, etc. He wants a Happy Meal. We're in line for the drive-thru when he says he's going to be sick. I'll save you the details, but we had to head home. No LEGO hunting for me. 4. He and I nap off and on for the rest of the afternoon. 5. As we're getting ready for bed, he doesn't feel good again. Again, I'll save you the details, but I spent the next hour cleaning. 6. He and I sleep the rest of the night on the couch, just in case.

So there is a rule of 2. Not just for the sith

Finally getting around to putting some stuff in my display case. This shelf is western theme.

It's about the same with 3in1 houses, not as poor investment as 3in1 vehicules but most of them have to be passed without regrets. There are few exceptions especially with houses that have a special brick with sound or light (I'm thinking about sets like 31012 that has retired soon, even if it will not perform that better than 110€/$, BTW it's time to unload them if you have some and invest elsewhere). For such sets being a Lego builder gives you some hints as an investor. Other exceptions are sets based on robots and animals (and dinosaurs). As an investment I would say that : animals (including dragons and dinos) > houses > robots > vehicules ... of course also depending how cool they are. (we're talking about 3in1 sets, not related with some creators sets like the 10226 sopwith camel or 10233 horizon express) Ok now I'm really off topic, time to stop.

I would suggest 31011 Aviation Adventures as a possible precedent. That disappeared from shelves in 2015. It had a US RRP of $59.99 and can still be purchased new on eBay for that price or less. Auctions in January finished in the $40s for some new in box. The people finding them for $20 might eventually make a profit, but that assumes there are enough AFOLs out there who are interested in retired creator 3-in-1 sets as opposed to the present airplane. I think it's a dust collector, and agree with @biniou that you'd have to be one of the few investors. However, if they're having success, I wouldn't blame them for not sharing that fact, because adding you to their numbers with ideas of profit would increase their chances of having bought a dust collector.

I received my Minifigures Plus order as well today. Very impressed with order. I'm not a big baller like the rest of you, so I just picked up the complete set of 16 minifigures for $63 shipped (cheaper than Target price with red card discount +tax, and no akward in store smoothing or chance of duplicates). These are for personal use. Not a complaint, just an observation for anyone else looking to buy a set vs. an entire box. The figures arrived in polybags vs.original sealed packaging. It was very nicely done. High quality ziplock bags with contents neatly placed inside. For me not a big deal, as I would have opened them today regardless. For others, having them in sealed bags might be more important.

Got mine set from Minifigures Plus as well. Haven't fished any out yet. Need to check which ones I really want to get multiples of, and then spend some time at Legoland smooshing.

seriously that's awesome - that's like he just gave you a hundred dollars.

Leaked Episode VIII test shot.

The boxes were shipped the way I would expect to receive them...MISB condition. I want people to be happy with what they receive because we will do this all over again next year.

Frankly, I would have preferred he wrap them in brown craft paper, slapped a shipping label on, and called it a day. Alternatively, he could have borrowed a technique from a previous eBay fruitcake I dealt with and shipped the sets wrapped in Christmas gift paper. I hear that 9/10 collectors like to recieve their prized Town Halls and Death Stars in sealed, destroyed box condition.

It might be slightly off-topic, but I've seen this reported several times, however here is an excerpt of an interview about 75060 conducted last year by Anio with Hans Burkhard Schlömer: Am I crazy thinking that one of the three announced UCS might actually be an oversized playset à-la Ewok Village? My guess would be Assault on Hoth if it is anything like the video released last year. Has it ever been stated that this 2 UCS per year rule has been revoked? Disney might have changed things a bit, but this got me thinking.

Walmart dorval is in clearance

One in the same,. According to Rebel Force Radio and Rebel Recon episodes the show is now about 2 years away (same amount of seasons). So unless Feloni and Disney wants to slow thing down, Rebels could be on a crash course with the Rogue One timeline which would bring more attention to ships. Can you imagine if the DS plans were given to Leia directly on The Ghost. The ship would def be put higher on the SW Ship Pedestal and warrant another Lego set. Pure speculation in my part.

So you're wondering if using the common pieces from the PS towards a sand blue GG and part of a CC will boost it's demand? Are _any_ of the pieces that are common expensive or exceedingly rare if bought on Bricklink, etc? If yes, then maybe a little... if no, then not at all. I'll say this as gently as possible, but that's a piece of research you should and could do on your own if you think it's possible. Otherwise, you're just asking a question blindly hoping someone has the answer for you. But since you asked it in the right thread, and I've got some time.... FWIW my gut instinct tells me the answer is no. Aside from the $50 or so in Sand Blue bricks, there is not enough quantity of any of the other valuable parts to be worthwhile for parter-outers to acquire this set in bulk (not to mention the other valuable parts like the 2x4 light bley tiles aren't exactly rare or are likely to become rare). Also, anyone who is truly going to drive up the value of rare bricks wants the real thing, and not some knock-off even if it looks good. i.e. I'd have never paid $700 for a CC with substituted colors. IMO The true value of modulars like PS is as a sealed set for those who decide to collect modulars later or expand their city without the hassle of bricklinking their own. (in case anyone cares, the part-out value according to BL is roughly 2x MSRP as of this posting which is pretty typical .. most of the value is in those sand blue bricks and the larger plates. Next up is the dark blue bricks, the larger 1x16 bricks and the tiles that make up the street with a few odds and ends like 2 of the 2x3 slopes in red that can be used as subs for CC)

Finally found the instructions.

Pop Star Stage, Left and Right Shark, and you've got a nice little display for your Fairground MOC. Not that I was thinking of doing that.

Received my Series 15 set from Minifiguresplus today. I fished for a shark guy the other day and there are a few others I will probably get multiples of.

Standard is they release two large Star Wars sets each year and retire two around October-December. Last Year we got Slave and Tie and lost DS and X-Wing. This year however we already know we're getting a UCS Death Star 75159, a UCS Snowspeeder 75144 and UCS Assault on Hoth 75098. There's just no way I see Slave or Tie going so surely just EV and Sandcrawler around Christmas.

Do you mean these guys?

justapilgrim has clearly been living in a galaxy far far away

Is this a selfless act or are you just trying to encourage Lego addiction to boost the future sales? Mwahahahha

Looking at the pics a second time I noticed the control room in the back of the first picture. That, and the bag numbered '4', and the thing below the train motor cable, belong to 3368 Space Centre. Looks like the white half cilinder piece in picture 2 is part of the shuttle*. Looking even more closely at the first picture, I see the remnants of 7939 Cargo Train (=train base utmost left part of 1st picture). That explains the presence of switching tracks seen on picture 2, because they are included with the 7939 set. It also explains presence of the yellow and red pieces in the container seen on picture 2 (for the loc resp. the truck). *White half cilinder piece may also be part of fuel wagon. So instead of one train, there's actually two trains (of course we can't see if they are anywhere near complete, hopefully the rest of it can be found in the container; for starters, some train wheels can be seen lying on top). I also see one ultra-rare olive green Duplo brick. Plus part of a car wash (blue brush piece, bottom of picture 2) and two brown chariot wheels (below bag no. 3). Inside bag 3 there are unspeakably rare one-off UCS Millennium Falcon discs... or maybe just disks lol. Minifigures seem to be present (zoom in to spot a torso and a head) so the lot hasn't been looted or cherry-picked yet. Some train stickers can be seen attached so that's good. Finally, pay attention to the first picture, right border. There I think you can see part of another bag. So my guess is that we're not seeing the whole lot. I think the bags have been opened by the way, and were used by the kid who owned these sets to keep part of a set in after he tore it down. Even more finally... has anyone else spotted the boxed architecture Big Ben in the second picture? Don't forget to ask the seller if that set is part of the deal Blue dots: 3368 Space Centre. Green dots: 7938 Passenger Train. Purple dots: 7939 Cargo Train (of course the train motor, remote etc. could also belong to 7938).

My 8 yrs old nephew built these two over the weekend (nexo knights and WALL-E): No help from my side on WALL-E except for one or two cases, he's a better builder than me!

Thanks for the advice, will keep that in mind. To me, I did not care about minifigs too much as long as I can build the ship. Now I have to return it anyway.

I love trains, but this one is my least favorite of all the trains in the last few years. There will always be a redesign, but trains are different (there are a half dozen re-designed cargo trains). I really dislike this particular train, but at 50% off, you will almost certainly make money on it down the road.

This kind of set is a good investment if you can have some with at least 50% off and you are one of the few investor in your country, because nowadays there are far too much offers compared with demands. Most of investors should pass creator 3in1 vehicules (cars, planes...). Invest elswhere and let the few meat on bones for people who dared to invest in such sets.

No it doesn't. Means second week of 2016. That's approx Jan 15. Reasonable shipping time to get them to retail locations by Feb 6th...

So that's why you wanna build a fairground..............

This one was original used from CL got it with a CC and MS all with instructions and box tops

I know, it's crazy. I'm stoked about this for sure. I called a few other Gamestops and they weren't as nice.

Johnny Manziel, is that you??

Ecto-2 is the bike.

I'm about to really blow your mind, often times if I am getting a large haul, I'll usually give one or 2 $5 sets to a couple kids in nearby checkout aisles on my way out of the store. Paying it forward, baby.

It wasn't posted here yet, but ... It's official.
