Bought 7 sets in Germany recently. 2 EV, 2 GBHQ, 1 TB, 1 PC and 1 SC. Managed to sell 5 of those sets for a profit, which left me with essentially a free SC and EV, so I decided to break out the SC to build it up. What an awesome build it turned out to be! Truly befitting of an UCS set, unlike the upcoming Hoth set... I have 2 other SCs kept in storage MISB. I think I shall get a few more of these down the road

The grammar police will be with you shortly.

We're all waiting for the next Ebay promo before spending our certificates

Please be classic, please be classic...

What's an adverb?

Finally finished this beast. It's actually a pretty awesome playset and you can fit a warthog and a couple mongoose inside. It's been a busy week and we had 5 baseball games this weekend. The wife is watching a movie, so I finished it while waiting to watch "The Walking Dead".

A complete, used but great condition Pirates Chess 2009 edition for £40

Some more information re: " From your experience, can you find retired sets from big box stores like Walmart and Target? " Different retailers have different practicies: For example, Target - corporate-wide has a pretty strongly regimented product life cycle on their shelves. They go through 2 major clearances a year (Feb/July) - and in general, they move out product even before it's "retired" from shop at home. Wal-Mart has a lot more freedom, and it can vary store by store, so OCCASIONALLY (especially in backwoods Wallies) find a retired set or two. Walmart also has a tendency to pile clearance items in storage, and then unload them onto the floor at various times, which allows the occasional old set to surface. Target does not do this. Other retailers, like K-Mart - have stuff on their shelves a lot LONGER. For example, at some K-Marts you can find things like Brick Bounty, The Ghost, even wave 1 Chima - All of which are "retired" on shop at home. And the ever popular Mechdragon, which just recently retired from Shop at Home. Toys R Us is the same way in that they have a lot of flexibility, and since they tend to overprice a bit - retired sets can linger on the shelves a while. "Retired" simply means the date it is no longer available at Shop At Home. Sometimes these sets can linger at other retailers for quite some time. A good example would be the Toys R Us exclusive "Hydra Fortress Smash" which I believe retired in November officially, but didn't get cleared out of TRU finally until a couple weeks ago. One of mine had a couple Black Gates 8-9 months after retirement on their shelves. And your own regional stores will have their own policies and gems.

No tricks. Just grinding out deals Here's the find of the day

Netflix and LEGO?

My girlfriend and I have been building Parisian Restaurant and binging Netflix all weekend. I'm pretty sure she's hooked on LEGO. All according to the plan.

I thought Geoffrey delivered these to you personally, with a slice of pumpernickel?

Well, that would be par for the course for LEGO's timing.

Love Bug Love Bug !!! I'd be all over this!

survey says : 4 per case... i thought they might be 10 per case. and up into the rafters they go!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-75060-Star-Wars-Slave-I-Building-Toy-1996-pieces-Read-/201555215386?hash=item2eeda0841a:g:q1oAAOSwud1XAopb New in Damaged Box Slave 1 $179 shipped. Disclaimer - yeah, you can get it cheaper at TRU if your TRU carries it and if you happen to be there and if it's the 4th day of the new moon where your 10% discount applies and if you don't pay tax and if you steal it OR just buy it now. If only someone made that suggestion!

If Brickpicker only had a stock alert system...

The Brick Fan is reporting that there is three full sets in a case with Alien, Genie, Mickey, Mr. Incredible, Stitch, and Syndrome getting an extra in each box.

Ant-man took a little jump this weekend - sold one for $63

In all fairness, it's taken lots of hours/gas and been over 7 states You should explore southern WI (before I get there)

I used to collect Those and the call of duty mega bloks. People like to crap on the brand but they never use stickers and they're a lot cheaper so they're doing something right.........

End of day summary: The last picture the 3 bigger boxes were $3, the foal was $1 and the poly was $2. The TRU bricktobers were $9.98 and the trees were $3.49.

Used $9 in SYW Surprise points for another Rey's Speeder. K-Mart has been good to me this year.

I couldn't help myself today at a local mall. $50 in VIP points and plus Mr. Freeze polys for each family member. I didn't want the huge box with holes in it so the contents were dumped into 2 XL bags. For a set I never planned on buying, looks like I'll be building it.

70172, while this is a Ultra Agents set, the kids thought it was awesome. Tons of playability and the fact that you can fit a minifig in the sharks mouth is sweet. The crane that holds the cell is weak and the giant harpoon gun hanging off the small boat is comical, but still a fun set. 5x eBay bucks and I broke down and bought our first Indiana Jones set. Came clean and with every piece in good shape, awesome set. I want to pick up a couple more now. Does anyone know if there are straight pieces of this smaller track?

My wife and son built this last week, they both enjoyed the build. A set I only bought to sell hence the 'ebay' photo. Quite an impressive finished product even though HP doesn't interest me.

U have faith

Yup. Been there, done that. Unless it's retired and already selling well, I no longer buy from them...

Trailer has appeared: Exclusive: LEGO DC Comics Superheroes: Justice... by comicbookdotcom

That joke isn't funny anymore...

MUNCHOS MAX ROBOT by nobu_tary

The opposite of a subverb!

So that's how a $60 minifig looks like ....

LEGO store had Easter Chicks unmarked on shelf, but they rang up $4.98 so I got a few to be able to cash in my 100 bonus VIP points x2. Then immediately used those points plus 200 previously saved rewards to purchase a 21305 Maze for $49.99, plus 1 more Easter Chick to get the Mr Freeze poly. Yay me!

Now if they were to tie it in with a new Disney Herbie film.....

For those house guests who just don't get grammar. Sadly my favourite, the Lose/Loose mug was smashed

My only ant-man set for $44.99 on BL. Buy in was $15.00 at some random Walmart in SoCal.

Don't get me started on Your and You're, there and they're or their. Drives me nuts. Oh, and cursive will be a secret code used by us old people one day to plot the overthrow of the millennials and their offspring.

Saw this just up the freeway from my place Can you imagine the phone call with your insurance company? "Yes, I was rear ended by an airplane. That's right, an airplane."

The white square label on the set usually indicates a return . That's messed up regardless .

Sold some mega bloks in a lot of minifigures. I happened to sell to the one mega bloks collector snob out there. He says I left a few random pieces out-of a lot (99% minifigs with a few tree stump things), and a cape is different color. I can shenanigans, but no one ever buys mega bloks except this guy. I just about want him to file a SNAD case, because there is no way I would want to keep that crap

I just spent 30 min on one Powerseller reporting his listings. The "custom" lego are in lego category and not lego. It is search manipulation and not allowed. Everyone that reads this should report at least one listing today

While I appreciate the comments about the picture from all members, I think it is a rather innocent and fun picture that exemplifies the fun of LEGO. One does have to be careful of what is posted on the internet, but in this case, I really don'r see any major problems if the parents are the ones who posted the picture.

Let the building begin [emoji1] this was a secondhand stillg got two MISB.

I really don't understand the people that are expecting this to provide "good money" when the set hasn't even had a retirement tag yet. Jeez.
