Triple polybag build this morning. I like the balloon vendor the best. Bad day for the hot dog vendor as he was immediately fired for someone more suited to the job.

Picked these up a couple of days ago.

It's Star Wars. It's the space ship responsible for delivering Han Solo to Jabba the Hutt. Boba Fett is a bounty hunter and bad ass enough to make a deal with Darth Vader. Add to that its a LEGO UCS model and nothing else matters.

I can finally make that custom Niko fig!

Picked up 2 for 75 a few weeks ago at my local walmart. The markdown is coming.

Walmart needs to get their act together and knock these down to 50% off first.

What ship is this now? I don't recognize it from any of the Star Wars movies.

No deals worth buying IMO, I finally get a break from running around and buying buying buying. capitol building can wait till some good deals are offered. Ah, the Disney castle....maybe just this before it goes out of stock for x-mas... september 15th, early access to 2!?! exclusive sets, oh boy it never stops.

Definitely doing the dance now....

regarding lego customer service, next time have a woman call on your behalf or call with screaming GB fan kids in the background.

2 x 21102 Minecraft for $3/EA via letgo & had $10 in TRU rewards so smooshed my way to 4 banana guys.

These guys and the people who buy them.

Got the new Big Ben at 30% of new and sealed from a contact

I feel really good about these at 50% off too. Wish I had more.

i held off from buying at 30% and then cleaned them out a week later at 50% . i'm still waiting for a couple of other stores to get with the program. no regular folk are buying any JW even at 30% off in my rural region so i can afford patience.

Indominus Rex Breakout is currently out of stock with a shipping date for late October on LEGO Shop at Home (Germany). I fear this set will be gone for good soon.

Those 3 babies at 50% off:

These polybags add a suprising amount of depth and character to your streetscape. Well done.

"Suited". I see what you did there

There's always money in the banana minifig.

The early access should be Death Star and Winter Train, I believe.

Bucket Wheel Excavator is showing as available to buy now from LEGO Shop at Home (Australian store) for those that were speculating about when it would come up. http://shop.lego.com/en-AU/Bucket-Wheel-Excavator-42055?fromListing=listing

I don't know if it's more disturbing that Dallas County Sheriff Valdez wasn't able to have a moment of silence at the DNC for the fallen cops or the fact that mainstream media hasn't said a word about how it let alone how disgusting and insensitive it was.

The last one was made in the morning or afternoon and the top 2 were made at 4:45 on a Friday.

Hostile Takeover! by Joseph Z.

I think most of us are losers. This theme is starting to rise significantly on Amazon right now.

Disney fans tend to be hard core. This will sell well. I'll be buying one for my personal collection. I have to. I dated Cinderella. HAHA. Seriously though. I really dated Cinderella in college. I worked at WDW while in college as a toy solider in the Electric Light Parade. Dated Cinderella for a year and a half. My wife hates this story. But the set is beautiful and will sell great even at the high price point in my opinion. If you can afford to take a family of 4 on a Disney vacation for 3-4 days you can afford this set. It's a single day's admission for a small family for one day.

I'm not going to get into technicalities regards the name on a Saturday night guys, I'm pretty sure we all know what it is and who the target market is. The question in hand was 'who is this aimed at' the answer 'is the billions of Disney and Lego fans on the planet'!!

From what I have seen. They are NOT selling at $99. I can get at least 20 for that price right now in a 75 mile loop. Every Walmart near me still has had them fully stocked at $99 for over a week.

that bucket wheel looks out of this world. outstanding!

I love these! Putting the minifigures in their own little world really makes them come alive.

I'd say if your still hanging onto a 10179 for investment, sell it now. Only a matter of time before lepin make it( if they haven't already).

That's easy actually to explain why. Almost all toys today are created in 3d on the computer. So, that model is produced for animation, etc, and then after the 3d model is complete, they can migrate it to be produced at the factories. Although, that process takes time and just isn't done with a snap of the fingers. The 3d model is then digitally created (probably by 3d printing techniques, then they have to produce molds, then setup the manufacturing of it and then the ability to mass produce it. The 3d modeling process is the first step, and once that's done, video games and animated movies can easily use that within days after it's created. It will take many months before actual real world lego prototypes are readied for production though.. I think it was a year or so before the Attack on Hoth set was put out, where we saw an animated film of the exact set. That animation turned out to show the set that was about to come out. I'm guessing this Bantha is very much in production. It will be a little more than a year since that image of the lego bantha came out from some animated clip. Regardless, I think they could make a set similar to the cantina and have all the figures in there (luke, obi, c3po, 3x tusken raiders and a maxi bantha) and charge around 69.99. They can just produce a landspeeder and a little rock cliff where the Sandpeople attacked Luke before Obi rescued him.

Hey guys. My name is Chris. I see that you have your own Aussie specific board here, so I thought I'd come say hi. I'm an American Army Officer in my everyday life. Back in 2003, I got to spend six glorious weeks doing an exchange program with the 6th Royal Australian Infantry Regiment (6RAR) based in Brisbane. Probably the 6 most fun filled weeks of my life. I've been back a couple times since then on Holiday. I always have a wonderful time. Absolutely beautiful country.

I bet if you call them and ask Lepin will release Jam Jam Banks on their Star Warn line.

I finished out everything I needed for this set today. Got a complete set, plus three extra Mariachis and two extra Penguins. And an extra kick boxer and hiker so I could make a woman hiker for my friend that's about to hit the Pacific Coast Trail for a month.

I like the new manager; )

We have built one and liked it (especially since you can break up and move around / between other mods)... Next PS we build will be a more challenging 'mirror build' which should be fun and add flexibility in town layout / design.
