Last summer I brought my old 90s Pirates sets down to the beach to assemble with the goal of selling them. Unsurprisingly, I fell back in love with them, and before I left the I'd ordered a Brick Bounty to fulfill my childhood dream of owning a Pirate Ship. It only seemed appropriate to wait until I was back at the beach this week to assemble it. Not without flaws, but a great set!7 points

Here's a screen shot from the trailer... You can sort of make out a pink Batsuit with a tutu. And then this pic has been circulating of a prototype part...4 points

I hope we'll get some of the batsuits shown (The Batriot, St Batricks, Merbat, Glam Bat, The Bat Pack...) in LEGO form.4 points

For those of you who saw my other post, sorry for the repeat. For those who didn't, I picked up a box at an "Estate Sale" (where the resident and her mother were very much alive) for $80. It has a complete Cafe Corner modular (was missing four small pieces) and what looks like a complete 5526 Skyline. Massive thanks to @jgschmieg3 and @Alpinemaps for identifying the two sets from a pic last night with a part of one instruction page from the CC and a couple partially built sections of the skyline. Also from a CL post, I picked up a used, but supposedly complete Simpsons House for $100. Haven't dug into it yet, I was a little distracted by the CC. I've seen so many posts with great finds and I've lost out on two online charity auctions lately, one with a Black Pearl and one with a UCS ISD and a UCS IST, so it felt good to get a win. I've always said I'm in this to finance my Lego building/collecting habit, so I may offer the CC up for trades for a package of sets I want for my collection like the GBHQ, Sandcrawler, and UCS Red 5.4 points

Sold my last Iron Patriot on BL yesterday for $30. It had been sitting there for several months and only a few weeks ago I created an EBay listing for the same polybag and settled for a $25 rate w/ free shipping just to be competitive. Glad that one didn't sell3 points

LEGO is not THAT stupid. Why give away the goods for $3.99 each when they can sell 3 + a few bricks for $60 ????3 points

This got posted to the wrong thread, so I've moved it here. I believe this is the issue that @ckBricks was talking about earlier.2 points

I went to Walmart this morning that was showing $25 tydiriums and couple other equally awesome deals (with isle locations) but I didnt find anything, then I stopped at two different Five Below stores to get some awesome dimension fun packs for $5 but all they had was ninjago and the-movie ones so I passed, stopped at a TRU store but I didn't find anything interesting there either, grocery store was next....now it's barbecue time!!!!!2 points

I will never understand the people that post pics of Lego they wanna sell. How about inside the containers. Hey, here's a pic of the closet they're in or a pic of the house they're in. [emoji849]2 points

Loved when the first 2 images that google showed when you searched "May 4th" was my shifter and your Pacino. Bet there were more than a few confused people.2 points

Yeah, I could see this. 1/3 of the sets are City, which would be a grind to sell. Looking at some of the Star Wars that I can make out, it would be a lot of work for profiting off of used sets. No guarantees of complete sets. hmmmmm......probably gonna stick with new sets. Thanks for the input everyone.2 points

Was your post even necessary then? You came on here and your quote is "the pricing for the US retailers stock tracker is garbage". Was that necessary instead of asking a mature and helpful post like... "Hey guys, I noticed that on the Walmart listings for the Stock Tracker, that the pricing sometimes jumps from here to on the following listing. Is that a glitch or something going with Walmart, whenever you get a chance please take a look" In one post, you could help describe what page is having a possible issue, what to look for and how often you see it happen. That is helpful. Your post was garbage.2 points

These were probably buried under all the Birds sets they just unloaded. Maybe they'll stumble on some Robie Houses.2 points

Just finished my UCS Falcon.. took much longer than expected (mainly just to sort and FIND the pieces needed for each step) but worth it. It's bigger even than anticipated but also "loose" in areas. Having built nearly every other large Star Wars ship, the top panels don't secure the way I expected. Either way, it's an icon for a reason.2 points

Well...I finally found all the pieces...a couple off color but still looks amazing I think. It took my son and I 7 hours with 3 slight rebuilds until we got the balance right. Yes, it is tricky getting it to stand! Let me know what you all think. #legodad2 points

In this case, the white brick is an interior color/trim part which also adds some structural strength to the inner wall. Could they have made it orange as well? Sure, but then there would be less detail on the inside. Considering that the Modulars are meant to be placed next to one another, most would never care or notice. This is not an error, but a choice by the designer. Many LEGO sets have similar situations in which there is no perfect solution.2 points

Just realized Batgirl is definitely a woman of color! Great to see diversity. I already new that Rosario Dawson was voicing her but it was still up in the air how she'd be represented on screen.1 point

I'm a bigger LEGO fan than I am a Star Wars fan so most of my build have been in the Creator line. However the Star Wars UCS line does have some of the largest and most interesting builds so I knew eventually I would get there. Since I came out of my dark ages a year and a half ago, I've always thought the UCS Imperial Shuttle 10212 was one of the most accurate and interesting looking Star Wars models and wanted to get one. To that end, for the past 3 months I've been slowly bricklinking 10212, 10182, and 10189. All original parts and color in new condition except where it didn't make sense (e.g. stud hole vs no stud hole). All new condition except, again, where it didn't make sense due to price or availability. I can give more specifics if anyone is interested but in short I sourced all three for about $1,400 plus ~$40,000 in unpaid time . This week in the evenings I built 10212... In the end I was just as impressed as I thought I would be. Really enjoyed the build and the final result!1 point
