Didn't hurt the DeLorean being nearly 30 years late

Nabbed one single 10683 at Lego BAM today. Seals were slit on one end, but every bag was sealed. $15.99 (20% off) plus 10% for box damage. After tax it came out to $15.54. Selling for nearly 3 times that on ebay. Also did my first store pickup at sears and was amazed by the experience. They had a designated pick up building outside that was fully automated, all I had to do was put the salescheck # in the kiosk and an employee came out 3 minutes later with my items nicely packed in a plastic bag (They even had a overhead monitor that tracked the progress of the items) Looked like the store had been remolded too. Was incredibly busy as well. Lets hope SHC has a good season.

Built Tower of Orthanc this week. Really liked the build and think the finished model is just class!!!

ICYMI, Witch King Battle available to ship at TRU.com http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=37611746&cp=&parentPage=search

$100 Sears GC for $90 (PayPal Digital Gifts) on EBay

31065 for sure. Also winners are the Dino set and mini lookalike Wall-e.

we'd better continue the convo in the Speed Champions before the mod smackdown for blowin up thousands of phones with nondeal talk. token deal to appease gods: LEGO 10696 Medium brick bucket at target on sale for $26.49, buy2 , get the $10 off, throw on the 5% red card discount, price is $20.42 before tax - 42% off. http://www.target.com/p/lego-classic-medium-creative-brick-box-10696/-/A-16747750 10696 hopefully will do like its cousin 10662 creative bucket.

I'd add that Shell and Lego have broken their relationship due to Greenpeace pressure - so no more Shell logos on Legos for the foreseeable future and think this is maybe the last still issued set with them? I'm not an investor but struggling not to buy a couple for that reason

I hope this doesn't end up like the purple stain Jenna Jameson doll.

Third Target's the charm! Actually went back to a Target I hit up Wednesday once I saw their stock went up by 120 yesterday. Funny thing was that this was out on the floor in a big Lego Batman Movie cardboard display with 120 poly bags in total (4 rows of 3 sets of 10). Spent over an hour smooshing but made no mistakes! Only took an extra bag because I wanted 21 poly bags to go along with a Deadpool Marvel Legends fig to use the target $25 off $100. It was fairly easy to smoosh. The only thing that threw me off was Mime's Mohawk but since it didn't feel like anything else I was able to deduce what it was by the end.

Supergirl Dimensions Starter Pack at Target 29.99 http://www.target.com/p/lego-dimensions-starter-pack-with-supergirl-playstation-4/-/A-51469173

New Star Wars U-Wing polybag! Already available at Legoland California apparently.

You do not bother us. You asked a question and received answers. I have two Tumblers as well. So I would be really happy if this set would launch. Rather yesterday than today! But you have to be realistic. We are not alone. Many have a few copies stashed away. And many do not have the patience we have. So it will take a while before it will see significant growth. What is really important is that the sets that do get sold now are opened. If they stay in circulation as MISB it will become very problematic.

Cos it´s too damn high.

2000 years to soon with Nexo Knights.

They were 20 years too late with The Simpsons, so what's next?

That´s why it´s disappointing to see so many people happy to make 10 bucks these days flooding the market.

Funny that I just sold a Stay Puft on EBay for $13 shipped (the minifig, not even the full pack)

Love the Meijer's reference, as in Meijer's Thrifty Acres?

Meijer's has a Mperks reward coupon $5 off each $50 in select gift cards (offer expires Dec 24). Anyone try it already? Not entirely sure what cards are included in the offer. Limited info says Visa cards (and a few others) are excluded. I'm guessing that if they have Target or TRU cards that they would be part of the deal. Anyone tried it yet? Thanks in advance.

Others had great responses. And they summarize my position. Which is, my market is different and I got what I wanted. I've been searching my town all week and none of my nearby Walmart have these. I'm in Orlando. I grabbed what I Could here. If they show near me, I won't be able to get more than 3 at clearance, if I'm lucky. I'd rather have 15 with an average buy in of 3.75. Than 3 at $1. And I have other outlets. I typically get a $4 value on minifigs. $4 on small vehicles. So the ninjago and prison plane are no brainers for me. Only got 1 Friends bridge, just for variety in my BL. For the completionists.

I bought a lot off of Craigslist for $100. Includes minifigures and other stuff. THe reason I went for it was the two HArry Potter sets. A knight bus and a Freeing Doby. All pieces and parts where there except for Lucious MAlfoy's cape. Already have the Knight bus sold to a coworker for $60 And he wanted me to put it together, So out of pocket I am at $40 with a freeing doby, some mine sets, a space police, a ninjago, some star wars figures and a bunch of other assorted pieces.

I didn't grab that much worth but around me those never last to the discount stage. Picked up a few ninjago wu-cru's 30424 to test the waters on those myself.

Meanwhile, 21118 The Mine has come down to the last 20 sellers on US EBay, and prices have breached $170 shipped. Yay!

TRU has a $10 reward with $19 in store pickup running today and tomorrow. $10 reward will be emailed on or before January 9. Must. R a TRU rewards member and enter a valid TRU rewards member # at checkout. Not a lot of discounts to stack with, but there are a lot of smaller sets that yield a good discount (net of the overinflated TRU prices)

Your looking at them.

Merry Christmas to me......and yes unlike previous 120 count cases where the count was way different then two 60 count boxes , I did get 6 complete sets.

I like the 31065 (for personal build), especially the alternative models.

Finally! My persistance paid off, literally 2 hours before the sale expires. Got these for $3.16 each after tax. Now I need to sell them.

Did they fall or were they pushed?

This polybag was found today: 30546 Krypto saves the day

A new polybag! 30496 U-Wing Fighter

I have people do my check out like a lord ....paid a price of not getting a full discount When I tried self check out once, those things are so light that it kept asking me if I don't want to bag my item every freaken time, plus every 3-4 scans, employee had to come and enter codes because of the weight issue....

I did self check out like a boss

Didn't you just say you're out and sold everything? I don't know why I'm bothering to ask.

Today I dug this one out of my loft to accompany my EV. I forgot what a nice little set this is, good selection of minifigs, a building and a vehicle. I know the perception of the EV is hugely divided on here, but for me, one of my favorite sets, and I personally think 8038 looks great next to it, albeit a little cramped!!!

Found this polybag at LEGOLAND today. Quick build, fun ship. I'm on a Rogue One high.

I have been working on the 911 all morning. It's awesome, much bigger than I expected. I highly recommend it, esp at any kind of discount.

Brickpicker.com needs a turd image filter. I'm not old enough to see poop pics. In other news, have any sets actually retired this year (gone to sold out status at LEGO Shop at Home) that were not first marked retiring soon on the EU LEGO Shop at Home sites?

Talk about barrel scraping. Where is the UCS version of Chewie´s crossbow?

Lol. I put my phone number on once (for a free used couch) and that was the last time (except for advertising a rental). OMG. The calls, man, the calls. Non-stop. Some with endless, hilarious questions. And ultimately, a used couch ended up in my apartment's dumpster.
