My sign with store name is made out of Lego, no one has stolen a single picture since started using it

Thanks, I was waiting for this one to drop a little. Links http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-DC-Comics-Super-Heroes/dp/B0194C3E20/ http://www.target.com/p/lego-dc-comics-super-heroes-justice-league-cosmic-clash-with-figurine/-/A-50662921

Finally had time to make the 2+ hour trek to Atlanta to one of the LEGO stores for double VIP and picked up the following: 1. 10240 Creator Tower Bridge for $239. Wifey says "the Tower Bridge is mine, and I haven't built it yet. Why don't you buy the damaged box one they have today for me to build and we can save the pristine box one for a rainy day" 2. 71006 Simpson's House for $199 (I decided my recent BN Kwik-E-mart acquisition needed a friend). I picked up an extra 1000 VIP points because the seals were loose on one flap of each box and the manager had to secure them with some extra clear tape. As they are both for personal builds, I welcome the extra $50 discount. No other box damage noted. 3. Complete set of 9 figures from Mixels series 7 for $45. I've only seen these in person at one store so far, with no discounts available. Double VIP seemed reasonable. 4. Pitates chess 40158 for $49. My boys want this this set for Easter, so wifey told me I was buying it. I know better than to argue. 5. Easter chick 40202 for $10. Wifey hands one to me and says "why don't I have one of these yet, they're cute?" (Of course I have 5 coming in the mail Monday). 6. 3 X Ninjago KAI's mini dragon 30422 for $0.

Yes, Canopy and UCS plate are loose.

LEGO Architecture 21024 Louvre $50.98 (15% off/save $9.01) http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Architecture-21024-Louvre-Building/dp/B00X6A8VDE/

Some reading for ya:

Im located in Northern New England - about as far from Fred Meyer as possible and I got my local TRU to price match. YMMV but worth a shot. I just argued that it specifically lists FM in their price match policy. The store manager couldn't really argue.

If you take a lot of pride in the photos you shoot the only way to prevent lazy people from stealing your photos is to place a water mark on your photos. This is easy to do, but if you have a lot of listings can be quite time consuming. If you choose to do this approach in the future make sure your water mark covers the item and background. this makes it harder to photoshop out. (see image below) Another option is to put a small sign with your store name on it in front of the item. Example

I'm up in t'North where we've not got 2 ha'pennies to rub together never mind spending on t'Lego , so usually stock levels are quite good

Is it just me that thinks TRU UK seen to be tighter than a ducks butt compared to US and European sites?

there is no new box design of the Pet Shop. just a "what if" discussion . battle of the Undercutters is just getting underway as the alchemists try to turn plastic into gold - there has been some furious penny pinching action just this evening looking at the brickpicker stock monitor. If this is what the postEOL future holds, PS is going to make ToO look like a winner.

Not an official set, but definitely looks awesome: http://www.thebrickfan.com/new-dk-lego-build-your-own-adventure-books/

I reckon the VW Group will be bought by the Koreans before the T1 retires.

When this one retires, its a race to the bottom$.

Recent weeks, I've been building modular buildings one set per week. So far I've built PS, PC, PR and GE. I'm also working on a project to bricklink 10182, 10185 and 10190.

Wish I had that "problem". I would buy a creased-box Slave I for a 20+% discount in a heartbeat.

Definitely a cool feeling walking out with a 10188 with VIP points even if took a minimum of 4000 dollars (Double VIP) to get there

Coming soon to a LEGO store near you (or the usual LEGO Shop at Home): 40165 - Minifigure Wedding Favor Box shots: With different colours of hairpieces included. I think this set might be really good to get multiple copies of, as weddings will never get old.

This is a great set. The boat is excellent, and the minifigs are great. I picked up a couple from TRU for $70 during the black Friday sale, I think it's a nice sleeper.

Where is the dislike button? Unless you missed the description I don't see why you would promote a listing that makes it seem like it includes minifigures in the title when in reality is missing minifigures, instructions, the tires and who knows what else...

Thanks, very interesting! I got 10 of them, I'll probably sell 5 of them now to recoup my investment and let the other 5 age a bit more.

Very sorry that this is happening to you. Sure you can open the case with Paypal to get your money refunded. Please send me a PM with the order number so that I can track down the seller and reach out to them or close their store.

Isn't it the best? I do love discounted Sears/Kmart gift cards with Surprise Points and coupons. It doesn't get much better than that.

I hope you're asking this question after buying ... because they'll be gone before you have your answer

When we see the rough version of the book and after discussing the photos with the publisher. The book and photos are getting turned in this week. I was very impressed with many of the photos. It will be difficult to choose the winners.

It's now back ordered: Out of stock, expected ship date 24 Mar 2016 But the 2 I ordered last week were shipped today.

On the TRU UK site it says: Do you deliver outside of the UK? Orders can be placed for home delivery to the UK Mainland, Northern and Republic of Ireland addresses. At this time, we do not have the ability to have orders placed on Toysrus.co.uk delivered to other international addresses. However, the following websites are able to deliver to more countries: www.toysrus.com - U.S www.toysrus.ca - Canada www.toysrus.fr - France www.toysrus.de - Germany www.toysrus.at - Austria www.toysrus.nl - Netherlands www.toysrus.ch - Switzerland www.toysrus.es - Spain www.toysrus.pt - Portugal www.toysrus.co.jp - Japan www.toysrus.com.au - Australia I think the general RULE of delivery abroad for TRU sites is: Delivery to nearby countries, except if they have their own TRU site. So, TRU UK also delivers to Ireland because Ireland doesn't have their own TRU site. TRU DE also delivers to Belgium, Poland and Italy. TRU NL also delivers to Belgium. Belgians are the real lucky ones here because they can use deals from TRU NL, TRU DE and TRU France since all those TRU sites deliver to Belgium as well !

Should I buy it now? Or wait an hour? Lol

The sad part is, you shouldn't have to ask...

"deceives office" sounds interesting. Today I built 41176 The Secret Market Place. The mechanism that allows the forges' hammer to strike the sword on the anvil is cool. Overall it's a really nice set though I think that the proportions of the green dragon are a little bit off. 41118 Heartlake Super Market I finished before is a good small set though it would benefit from having complete sidewalls. Also, I had some fun assembling the minidolls. As I'm always interested in adding cool printed pieces to my collection I wasn't disappointed with these sets. 41118 offered a new biscuit/cookie tile (the one with jelly), a sushi tile and a chocolate bar tile (upper row) while 41176 offers a grass/moss tile, a dragon banner and a book with dragon print and a dragon-print tile inside (lower row). The new food pieces are more interesting to me as I love LEGO food.

Where's the dislike button for this.

I'm a victim again. Sold all of my 9515 - Malevolence last year, but my son wanted one, so here we are. Got a decent deal on a used one.

Your points aren't credited until you are charged, but the amount of points you get is based on when your order was placed and confirmed. So if you buy an OOS item before 2x VIP and it ships during the 2x VIP you only get single points.

Moral of the story is the kid even knows to stay away from SW Micros even for £2. I'm on his side. Sounds like a smart brat

I found a gorgeous Slave I on the shelf this morning at local TRU, used the 20% coupon and paid with discounted gift cards (that were obtained for a total of 25% discount from eBay deals, etc.) to get total down to $127, without using any rewards or other discounts. Also came with a free Ninjago flyer. Happy Friday to me.

I agree with the SC confusion (Sopwith , Sea Cow, Sandcrawler) but let's avoid nicknames since that's a very polarizing topic around here. I have a brilliant idea, let's just type Sandcrawler! My phone even autocompletes it for me ;-)
