I like to take pictures of my swag when I return from Star Wars Celebration. I know this pile of items is small compared to most attendees and I included the KMart items from the 2 stops on the way down. I took the family this time, so my swag collection was very limited. I spent most of the time following my son and our group. I had to keep an eye out for all our kids, so I didn't get to browse or shop much this time. Anytime I looked at something for 2 seconds, it seemed one of our kids disappeared or were engulfed by a wave of con goers. We received very late notice (Thursday evening), but we're very lucky. Each of my family members who entered the LEGO exclusive lottery won. We feel very fortunate. None of my friends or their family members entered, don't get me started on that.

I found a ~95% complete Haunted House for $50 on Letgo. Mark that off my Lego bucket list

Another one today.... 75101 First Order TIE Fighter

Madoca Trophy Truck work in progress.

Fan made poster.... @ProfBrickkeeper on Twitter

Had a lot of fun building Elves Secret Marketplace with my son (6) and daughter (3). Mainly me of course, but they chipped in. Engaging and bright set, with lots of small, interactive parts.

? I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter. I hope the Easter Bunny was generous....

Thanks @Philb, what a solid deal! I'll have to call SYW to get a few of the $2's that didn't post, but I did learn that you can buy B&N GCs at Kmart with Kmart GCs I cleaned out a store today at net discount of 36.2%. ($25-$5-2$=28% before GCs). C'mon 50% sale Monday B&N!

My 5 year built 70730 Chain Cycle Ambush I love it. I kinda wish Ghost Rider's cycle looked more like this.

Merc and Chiron over a couple of nights in front of the TV. left off the stickers for the time being.

Hey guys! It's Brickson! Soo.. it's come to this. I need funds, got credit cards to pay back before I move to Japan. Japan guys! Selling this thing is such a PITA though. Either I gamble for 5K on Amazon.com (pray it's not one of the guys who returns it), or craigslist and hope they don't hope it then "change their mind" (I've heard the police station has a meeting area to avoid a stabbing). Or...? How about only dealing with a reputable member at Brickpicker. Seems like a better choice. Or Bricklink... So here we are, you, I, and a 10179. I'll sell it 30% lower than I can find it anywhere else. $3000 USD. That's still about a grand profit for holding on to it for 2 years. Original box. Mint, no damage at all. It's not the first edition that has the seal on it though. I think it was made a couple years later (2009/2010). I got it from an official Lego Ambassador, good guy, if you're interested I can give you his LinkedIn to verify. I'll upload pics if somebody's actually interested. It was taken out of the original box only twice AFAIK, once when I bought it to verify, once to take a pic for this forum (I'm talking about the packing box - its sealed ofc). Only selling to reputable/long time members. Shipping double boxed fedex, or pickup in Vancouver BC, Canada. Best, Eric

We need some one to start a counter-rumor saying that it is NOT going to be remade, for sure. Maybe you can pay a blogger $1000 to say it, so you can cash out now.

Have you tried any of the Star Wars forums? There are still those collectors out there that may want it and haven't heard the rumors.

Took advantage of recent eBay £1 FVF offer and wanted to clear space so priced to sell and sold following in 2 days. 2 x Artic Truck for £65 each, buy in £30 each Wall-E for £70, buy in was £25 T-rex Tracker for £100, buy in was £20 using TRU Vouchers Trevi Fountain for £65 - buy in was £10 (on sale at SAH and using VIP points) Total investment £115 and a profit of just over £200 for what was a six month old with minimal fuss and a lot more than your high street savings bank or blue chip tracker fund.

Been slowly acquiring HP sets. Snagged this complete with most bags sealed for $65. Great build! I'm hooked on these sets.

Good luck getting a buyer on here. There are very strong rumours on a remake over the next year.

I had a lot of Raise/unnamed other app points hit this weekend. Also stacked a $15/$75 and a 15% off one toy coupon. It looks like it dumped the $20 back on $60 coupon because I spent $4.17 total on these two. It looks like I might have another order coming later today Thanks @Phil B for the coup!

Happy Easter everyone!

Its after applying points for sure. Stacks with most points back coupons and a $ off one. If your lucky, you can get a $ off coupon to stack with a % off a single toy one. I've bought a lot yesterday lol.

Yes that is why I posted Enjoy. Not poofed deal is for store pickup and Target is closed today, well at least here it is. It is regional a lot of stores still showing stock. Not a loophole Amazon does this all the time on many items just go to the page and look for the "Trade in Now" button in the upper right hand corner. If you can secure 2 (most you can trade in per account) for target store pickup do the trade in now and get $43.50 in Amazon GC instantly The Amazon trade in price will plummet by Tuesday. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GPB677W/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me=&th=1 oh target pulled the item because of SD effect

Fan made purist Kallus after the Season 4 trailer /u/Marc815 on Reddit

According to a B&N spring clearance starts Monday. He said not a lot of Lego included this round, but the space shuttle is on the list.

just finished my new Caterham 7 (21307). Its a lovely build. I particularly loved how the rear wheel arches came together

Well, nothing has actually been confirmed yet but it just goes to show that the Lego market is as volatile as any other investment as prices depend on rumours and expectations.

Any word on an update?

Oh awesome. Ugh. Got more info?

Sears is still there (1.5%). According to the insider forums this happens occasionally when Kmart is late on a payment, according to them it's usually back within a few days. To their credit the SYW app and website has REALLY improved lately, and I'm finding myself using it more. Fount on the other hand is a piece of garbage (why can't they just put all of that on the SYW app?)

Aside from being $24.99, there is also $10 off with store pickup. So that makes it $14.99 plus 5% red card discount.

I don't do dimensions so not sure if this is a deal or gets posted in dimensions thread so please move if so. Also don't know if these were in the 99 cent sale so please don't flame me http://www.target.com/p/lego-dimensions-new-ghostbusters-story-pack/-/A-51296804

What's the edition size on the Detention Block? I've looked at a bunch on ebay and the highest number I saw was around 2200.

Assuming that everything is close to complete and you don't mind putting forth the work to sort and put everything together $200 isn't a bad starting price. If I saw the lot and could tell everything was in good shape and mostly sorted I MIGHT go as high as $350-$400. With that lot I would plan on selling the Farnsworth, Camel, Star Destroyer, Shuttle Adventure, De Lorean right away. I would hang on to Trevi, Mini Cooper, and Ecto for a while to let them rise in price a bit. T1 I would either keep or sell depending on my mood and how much I paid for the lot vs how much I got for the sets I sold. The rest I would sell the mini figs then sell the mixed bricks by weight. One note about Architecture sets, the larger ones SUCK to pick out of a bulk lot, not as bad a bionicle or hero factory, but a pain none the less.

That's correct. Walmart doesn't do ship to store and PM the store price. If you want that price you have to find it in store at that price. And if it's out of stock then you're out of luck at that store.

EU 3x VIP. Wheel for my daughters. Other sets are for my nephews. Little cars for me I guess.

Civility is always a work in progress. Some members get it, others struggle with it, and a few decide to ignore it. It's the internet, you are always gonna have snarky posts. The more popular a forum gets, the more it proliferates. We can't control what others post but we can control how we react and respond. As far as the TB goes, I'm keeping one to build but I've sold most of stash for a loss to pay for more Exos.

Maybe he's asking the question we all wanted to ask, but were too lazy to.

Went from Silver to Platinum in one week. Not sure how, not complaining.

The Birthday Cake was boring to look at after some months, so I used all its parts to create a Droid Escape model, because I totally missed to buy the last version. Only the red pants, large grey plate, and stands are other bricks.

Found this fellow on Craigslist (Baltimore) for $150. Needs a bath for the layer of dust, but otherwise in excellent condition.

it's called rope. Lasso each kid around the waist to your belt.

Used 6211 Imp Star Destroyer (my 4th one in 12 months, working on #5 now) w/ instructions, no box. In for $32 out for $133 net after fees ($10 buy-in + $22 in parts... original owner glued the 4 most expensive parts :P). $100 profit is ok on this one since I inventoried but never assembled it.

Field report: clean as a whistle I called or visited most of the 99 cents only stores between LAX and the Antelope Valley. There WERE 3 Homers that are now packed away in my carry on. Zero located beyond that. It seemed that some stores had inventory within the past few weeks, but most were bare since February. Hopefully this will help someone else hunting the last gasps.

That 1x2 tile looks like it could be used for bacon.

I was working on the Price Guide update yesterday, hopefully should have it updated tonight or tomorrow at the latest.

I've been curious for some time about the history of the different moon logos on classic space figures. Is there any information about what sets the different types came in originally or if this was a switch made before/after some particular year? Moon space logo qualities I have identified: Gold Logo - Bright and vibrant Gold Logo Faded - Clearly was originally gold Gold Logo Faded all the way to White - again, clearly originally gold Dark Gold Logo - Typically only seen on red figures but occasionally on blue. Red Logo - Only found on red figures Seen in the second photo White Logo - Everything is so crisp that it seems impossible that it was originally gold.
