Jurassic World and Scooby are done this year, not in the 2017 Wholesale Order Form.

So I finally got around to building this set with my son. I purchased it used in 2013 and extras were included (another set of 7199 cars and minifigs plus some Temple Escape elements). The original owner paid $60ish for it (Target clearance price sticker). Tape seals indicate this set was made during the 1st week of 2010. It was a nice build. The track is a tad fragile and should really stand higher under the Temple so the mine card could roll from start to end. My kids love dropping minifigs into the cars and pushing them on the track

I stand corrected, it is clearly not a sea plane. Huge difference. Sea planes clearly have TWO head lights in the front. not just one.

If Toywiz buys from you then you're selling too low.

Easy to predict when price correction will occur

Today, I received my first Resistance X-Wing Fighter. The difference in box size is mind-boggling. So 23 additional bricks in an extremely similar set obviously made it necessary to enlarge the box by roughly 40%. This might explain why the set is priced higher than Poe's X-Wing Fighter in certain markets.

You already know the answer to that.

That doesn't look like a regulation smooshing basket

Got these 2 from a thrift shop today-$50 NZ :-)

My grandparents give me the same thing for Christmas every year- $10.

Here comes London bus

So 100% true story. Han Solo fans may appreciate it. Back in 2012 when I got married, my sister was dating/living with some scrawny LA actor who my groomsmen had fun ribbing. Apparently he had some big "blockbuster" called Beautiful Creatures coming up he was gonna be the "next big thing" from. Alden something, I didn't really pay attention other than he was the dude my sister had been dating a few years, he seemed like an artsy dweeb who took himself way too seriously for my tastes. Beautiful Creatures flopped a few months later, and he went into a 3-month depression where he barely left his bed. My sister left his pouty ass. Turns out scrawny Alden (Ehrenreich) was cast as the new Han Solo just recently here. My sister has since married some other guy. But the moral of the story: Hans f***ing Solo was at my wedding. I've got pictures of and with Hans Solo at my wedding. Top that!

I'll take my chances with the 400 Star Wars Advent Calendar sellers. Too soon to talk about those?

maybe it's the way he talks. like Chandler Bing.

That awkward moment when the S@H freebie was available for $4 LAST YEAR at Target

FBA : At-te : $200 . Made that 50$ a piece hunt at Walmart so worth it . Alt listing , since the primary was suppressed for the longest .

Found this today. On sale for $25.

Hi, first post here! Been reading for a couple months. Don't think I've seen anyone mention B&N for Birds on this topic. Maybe not quite the Amazon price mentioned above, but with 10% member and 10-15% GC I've been ticking off my easily reached B&N stores. Got an additional 10% off on a crushed box today too for self so I don't have to open a nice one. Cheers.

You think it is going? Should i buy for investment now?

FBA 70115 - Chima: Speedor Tournament - $48 75048 - Star Wars: The Phantom - $58

If it works with Falcons and X wings, why not for dinosaurs?

Don't forget your Swimways body board, free with a $40 purchase in store. Perfect for the beach or pool this summer.

$31.50

We've already seen leaked pictures of the 5 sets and 3 Constraction figures that will be in those boxes and none are the AT-AT. There could always be an exclusive or a later set that we don't know about yet, but all signs point to no AT-AT for the Force Friday launch.

Sold 1 Anakin's Y-Wing Starfighter (8037) on Amazon for $100.94 (ended up netting about $79 after shipping and fees).

You are right. I apologize. Please take one Internet for your troubles.

Nah, I get it. Gotta free up capital for those 30% off Bionicle and swamp police sets.

They have a new 2016 Bionicles show up on Netflix with the new Uniters and Creatures... Only three episodes so far though more are promised. Sorry to be a bubble burster but I don't think these are done. Last year's wave did this too ... Many found them on super clearance yet they're still available. I think last year's wave is on their last legs and the new sets will be around until next summer.

Ended up also buying today 9474 The Battle of Helm's Deep for $150.00 total shipped (and $7.95 in eBay bucks with the current promo). Figure that's about as close to retail as I'll find it these days and doubt we'll ever see more LOTR sets in the near future.

Here's some other telling graphs. First one is Millennium Falcon. In my opinion, what's interesting about it is right around the point that it was announced that there would be a "new lego MF" for Rogue One is the point where it plateaued, and then slowly plateaued in price and went south a bit. So, I think the At-AT will continue rising until that new announcement, whenever that maybe. Until then ride the wave. The second is the trajectory of the OT x-wing, which is still having an upwards swing. It's tough to say if a new x-wing is coming for Rogue One, but it's in the film, so I suspect we might see one, and that will probably plateau that set too. Interesting that Poe's X-wing had no effect on this older version, compared to say the new MF having an effect on the OT MF. Finally, growth of the Republic Gunship, AT-TE, and AT-TP. All these sets are showing upwards trajectories. So, i'm going to go out on that limb again and say AT-AT's are going to continue to rise. Also, sets that aren't currently retired but getting closer like the Imperial Shuttle Tydirium, Jedi Duel, and all of those first wave Force Awakens sets will probably see those EOL spikes. Granted, not all sets spike like they do as the MF did, as some like the RG, AT-TE, etc slowly but steadily rise in price through the months. But I think we will definitely see good spikes this year with other sets.. Now we just play the "when will the announcment be with a new At-At?" In my opinion, you have to sell right before that announcement to hit the peak. Because then it will more than likely plateau and start a slow but not too steep decline in price, similar to the OT falcon.

Am I the only one who didn't have a grandparent that could swing $250 for a single toy for them growing up?

I dare you to post similar replies to @emazers posts

I've had many inquiries, thanks to everyone! The collection has been sold, and I'm working with the buyer to arrange delivery. Thanks again to everyone, that was really quick. I actually had several offers in excess of my $12,500 asking price. I didn't accept them as 1) I had been working a deal with a buyer prior to this, and 2) I felt $12,500 was the fair price which leaves enough room for the buyer to make some profit on this collection. After all, that's one of the reasons we're all here. Thanks again, now I have to start packing things up.

Yes, collection is in Albuquerque, NM. I'll drive up to 500 miles on my end for delivery if needed. My treatment has been great so far. Losing much of your tongue totally sucks, but it beats the alternative. Thanks everyone for the good wishes, I'll make it through this.

I would start building with the oldest modular you have to avoid disappointment as a lot of people consider the latest modulars to be superior builds. So it could be nice to save those for later.

Seems so and that DS will be a 30th September release with possible early access on the 15th. Leaked images of both should not be far off now.

Some sets have been "dancing" for years...

I watched the first 3 episodes just because Scorsese produced it and Ray Romano was in it. The music was definitely the highlight but the story was not very engaging to me

Hi, I don't know you but I have some grammar tips you need to pay attention to: 1. Un-capitalize "Been." 2. Add a period at the end of all sentences.

Built 6280 Armada Flagship from a bulk buy I bought a while back. This is the first vintage set I've built in years. I forgot how bad instructions were back then. It was tough seeing what pieces needed to be added in a step as you needed to compare it to what you've built already and/or the previous step's picture. Kids these days don't know how good they got it.

Built the GB Firehouse over the weekend. This thing is a monster. I got through two movies and the entire oj made in america doc while building it. I just need to find a way to tie it into my modular town. Edit- think I have a plan

Prometheus was a great movie if you did not think of it as prequel, but as reboot of the Aliens universe Terminator 2

I'm just pissed that we get this $350 abandoned firehouse but Lego won't make a nice Lord of the Rings Minas Tirith for a fanbase begging for one. You want to talk about a $350 set that would have amazing secondary market capabilities?(that's not Star Wars) That's it.

At a starting point of $350, it has to hit some very high numbers to make it a big time winner. I just don't see people shelling out big money for a set that is not really iconic in any way besides piece count. Ghostbusters was a cute movie, but let's face it, it is no STAR WARS or LOTR or Harry Potter and its fan base is much smaller and less enthusiastic. It's my opinion the $350 might be best spent elsewhere, unless there is a short production run of this set.
