Been waiting two years to get my favorite Star Wars vehicle in Lego form. It is mine

Rey's Speeder $11.99 @ amazon Lightning deal

I've got the U-Wing via WM clearance a while ago. This set was not on my radar, and I did not expect much, but the price was right. Now, it is one of my favorites. The color scheme is esthetic; the compartment fits many people; the cockpit-opening mechanism is working; the shooting mechanism is very well developed; it has a trunk for spare parts storage; minifigs look great; and the slender design makes it a very nice display model that doesn't take the space of a 16'' pizza such as the Millennium Falcon. Thanks to the suggestion of @exciter1 it even makes a great toilet model. Not sure about its investment potential, but for me as a collector it is a great set.

I've been reading about this Dimensions bonanza for a while now. I finally made a trip to the 99c store 2 miles from me and found some. If anyone in the east coast still needs some let me know and I'd be happy to send them to you. I'm not sure how much people are paying for them, but I'll send them at cost and anything you're willing to pay above cost you can donate to Ed Mack's school, if donations are still accepted. Just an idea.

New SW Rebels Phantom during the TRU Lego Batman Car build event,

That person was wrong. If you want some ideas for other items, we do actually have a forum just for that purpose. Just don't discuss travel deals, jerky, make up, or clowns.

Let's do this!

Not much left.... Picked up 80 fun packs

not sure if this is new or not, also sorry I dont know how to affiliate link Volcano Crawler for 20$ https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-City-Volcano-Explorers-Volcano-Crawler-60122/51720856

I guess there's no real point in trying to discuss if a set is a good or bad investment anymore. If you say its a bad investment people just say "I bought this for 50% off so I'll still make money", if you say it's a good investment people say "it won't be anywhere like set xxxx". Everyone has their own interpretation of what is a good profit margin. £10 profit is nothing for Mr A while for Mr B it is an amazing ROI. I don't think anymore constructive info will come out of retired set threads, apart from periodic updates on how the set is performing.

2 classy cars and TRU promo. Y wing up next

It's an awesome set and creative build. I'm not sure what you don't like about it, but it looks fantastic when complete.

Please only tell us when you are 'in for 3.'. Thanks

Egghead. Egghead Mech. I demand these now. (With a side of Condiment King)

TRU. I know to expect their idiocy but come on. Price adjustment to the price on your website should not invalidate your BOGO 40%.

Kids did the free build at tru today.

New sets at at local TRU. Stoked about the y wing.

Old Fishing Store - Modular Building The Story The story for this modular building was that the Old Fishing Store is based upon the Christmas sets that are available. I liked the Christmas sets so I built this one on Lego Digital Designer (LDD). I really believe that this model could have a lot of genuine interest to fans of Christmas sets. This is the first of a series of modular buildings that I will be making. Summary The building consists of roughly 2160 parts and three floors: the main store, office, and lookout. I used the colors brown and sand green that gives it a realistic feeling. Three Mini-figures could be added such as a fisherman, the store keeper, one captain. And a lot of details. Production Process of the Old Fishing Store LEGO designer, Adam, is putting the last touches on the beautifully crafted Old Fishing Store before finalising the design. It's a fitting place for anyone looking to stock up on gear for their next big fishing trip! Launch: Expected Fall 2017 Thank you for continuing to be engaging and supportive fans of LEGO Ideas. It truly drives us to look forward to next year. Exprected Price for this set: ~100$/150$ Project: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/124448 Brickset: http://brickset.com/sets/21309-1 Final Look:

Bought 2x Arctic Roller at target using $10 off $50, red card and nieces' employee discount. $42 for both.

I was afraid to click on this thread thought it was going to be more posts on how this set is poop. You probably already bought it but nothing that will be too hard to replace other then Queasy Kitty some of the parts that make up metalbeard. Also the large grey turbines and smoke stack pieces. So many tiny pieces in this detailed set. I would check the captains cabin and make sure all the "play" parts are there.

So I have a LEGO item on eBay at $11.99 (buy it now or best offer). Someone sent me a first offer of $11.98. I obviously accepted but have reservations because no other than a fruitcake would make such an offer.

Sales are still strong on Ebay for this one and once the cheaper UK sellers run out of stock, it should start appreciating nicely. I can see it following the Delorean´s growth curve.

It looks stunning with it's Tidy Bowl finish.

helicopter from city square $9.99 shipped BOOM!!

Another one. 30612

I thought the exact same thing while watching.

You didn't have to open the Series 2 bags, btw. You could have scanned the bar code with a QR reader. Great find/fun.

Ditto here, the 1st half was good while the 2nd half was blah...kinda sucked like iron man.

Wow, didn't think it was possible but I sold a standard Batman minifig from one of the Lego Batman Movie sets I am parting out. Sold it for $4.25 plus $2.95 shipping.

Homers in Lake Forest, CA Fresh off the truck: Gimli, Gollum, & Bad Cop in Fullerton "This again?!?" -my Trashcan

Oh man throwback to investorsell...

Popped up on Amazon for $52.93. Missed my chance on this before it retired. Figured why not.

I want the gold suit/costumes from the end credits

We just got back a little bit ago. I thought it dragged a little during the 2nd half and something else about the 2nd half I didn't like as well, but I'll hold that in for now. The first half was pretty great and very funny. I want an Orphanage Batman Fan Club Battle Pack and some of those Batman emblem t-shirt torsos.

There are alot of great people on BP who give great advice on what are good sets / latest deals / what set to avoid etc. But noone is just going to handout their golden goose items that they most likely spent countless hours researching / trial and error / learning the hard way etc. This is not them being rude, but they worked hard to get to where they are. Would you give up your hard earned business secrets which would kill your livelihood? If you do want to get rich quick... I hear some Nigerian Princes can help you out if you send them some dollars to help their long lost cousin.

Bunch of sale items on Lego.com to get the Batman poly. I like the Santa for $5 on there. Two more Friends Heartlake Supermarkets for $12 each because I have an impulse problem with clearance.

Star Showers and page flags.

Followed by series 2: ringmaster , Mime, and the archaeologist guy.

First bag

OPEN THEM AND POST WHAT YOU GOT ON HERE.

Got these for $10 total. Should I open them or sell them sealed??

Lego Dimensions Starter set $38.42 Amazon Lightning deal

Just took the kids. They loved it. I thought it was okay. It wasn't outstanding, but it wasn't bad. My favorite part was Batman's password. And all the different minifigure combos! Oh man, I want the entire Justice League. And the different costumes many of the other characters wore.

This won't be enough - you should check every hour...

This is quickly becoming a theme song in my head reading some comments here these days...

Such a lot of negativity... Anyway...Deals thread

You'd be competing with folks who bought these at $15-20. Kmart had an endless supply of these for over a year at that price. I'd imagine that a few resellers have a several hundred of these so you'll see multiple hurdles at several price points. There's also a new scooby movie coming out next year so we'll probably see another van at that time.

I "smooshed" enough to get all the minifigs I was looking for in the current series, but I decided I can't keep doing this, and thought there must be a better way. Well I think I'm on to something. As an avid tea drinker, I own a small gram scale. Theyre available on amazon for like $10. Scribbly face Cop: 10.4 grams Angry usiness man: 10.1 grams Lincoln: 10.9 grams No pants guy: 10.9 grams Barista: 10.1 grams Those are what they weigh in the bag with all their accessories, booklet, and stand, as they will be in the store. I'll try to weigh the rest of the ones I have later. For it to really work, you'd need to have the weights of all of them, which I won't have. I'm hoping if anyone else has a scale at home, we could compile a complete list, and also verify that my measurements are correct. It's not fool proof, because some do have matching weights, but it will take a lot of the guess work out and leave you with only a few bags that need smooshing. It could be fool proof with a more accurate scale.. Mine only measures to the 10th of a gram.

As i have just started collecting minifigs i took your advice and smooched like a small child this afternoon in toys r us... and managed to guess the 5 i bought... i found it easier closing my eyes for some reason.... got a few strange looks but im too thick skinned to care TBH...
