Finally built it. I will prepare the content to publish a blog. In the meantime, here are 2 pics. Note: one 1x2 flat plate was missing. D'oh.

It seems appropriate today.

I ordered one, can't wait to wear it to the in-laws and get the eye roll.

$19.37 price is now walmart's online price for Darth Vader 75111. amazon is price matching. limit 3 for nonbusiness accounts. this is almost the lowest price for this set - got down to $19.19 a few times during the holiday season. i was shocked last night when i was sneaking some of these in from the car and was caught by my wife but instead of the eye roll scold, she was like "Cool - when did this one come out - we should build it." huh? next thing she'll starting busting ruby tuesday salad bar rhymes. maybe kale instead-a.

TLG employees hard at work making the calculations for your "sort by: Price: High to low" request. If a valve burns out before they get the results, you're out of luck.

I wonder how many pages of coding she would have needed to make SAH work right.

5 X Capitol $35 each 2 X Spidey Bridge $30 each TRU after PM to Amazon, $200 Reward and 15% GC Hope these prices stick around for Monday's reward and TRUTH

exactly lol

I've noticed a trend selling on eBay, the more questions a buyer asks, the more likely they are to be a pain in my backside after the sale is complete. Just like a funko buyer "can you please pick the best box you have to send? Box condition is very important to me." Nope, buy from someone else.

Kevin didn't just do your homework for you did he?

Great sale currently. $69 and change. https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Architecture-United-Capitol-Building/dp/B01CVGV5H2%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJQSYTIGRBKVM26KQ%26%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB01CVGV5H2

FOLLOW UP: 34 bags IS THE MAGIC NUMBER!!! I have Completed the build and have pieces left over. Your set, unopened in boxes should weigh right at 16lbs. If it doesn't you ARE MISSING BAGS.

Seriously. Use your vast supply of Lego workers to help us poor American collectors out

Finally back up now. Also last day for $10 back in points on $40.

Nice share. Jeff posted it about an hour ago but I must've missed it. Then the price dropped more. I'm in for one to build.

darth vader 75111 constraction figure (best of the bunch imo) is on stealth sale with in store price of $19.37 at virtually every walmart store in my search zone. i stumbled on 3 at this price while hitting the honey hole and checked the online trackers which showed the price at the few stores with remaining stock. online price and shipping price still at $21.99. i'm cleaning up little remaining stock seems like a chip shot to $60 once this one goes EOL which will hopefully be soon.

Ok here is what I have. I feel quite certain 34 bags is the magic number. 3 of those 34 bags are "soft plastic bags" with multiple bags inside. I have two extra bags of parts that are identical to 2 of the bags pictured. they total the 1 pound overage I stated previously. I will report back if I end up with no missing pieces. So that way we can confirm, that this is indeed the exact bag count. All plates are accounted for too BTW. Fingers crossed!!

I keep a canned response saved as an email template for these buyers. I got burned by a box snob once ... never again.

I bought a tie striker, AT ST, hovertank, and 2 imperial battlepacks off jet for $105. Good enough for me. They'll be for my army or parts.

How much does he want 25% / 50%. If it were me I’d pay him, write it off and move on. For me the aggravation of having to deal with someone that isn’t going away and a GSP sale, wouldn’t be worth the few quid it would cost to make it go away. A higher priced item sure I’d fight it. For a % of £14, no. Save your principles for when it’s real money.

Last few weeks £950 cash for this bundle: Sealed UCS B-Wing Open complete UCS SDD really nice condition, box too Complete UCS Shuttle no box Open complete Slave 1 All personal builds TRU X2 70909 Batman Movie Batcave @ £40 ea --( £109 rrp ) 10255 Assembly Square £130 personal build picked up 4 mini figures from the till in a rush, got 2 rocket boys and 2 corn men, which are the ones I wanted - Free

TLG were asking themselves the same question when they were planning the site's relaunch last year, but eventually they decided to just take what they could get from their friends at NASA and re-used that old heap of code you can see there.

Have them price match Amazon, then use TRU gift cards.

They should just break the lego code and call it YT1300.

I'd rather post here than do more work in the office. Just finished and not counting mini-figures as any gauge of completion cause many have heads or torso's missing. * Mos Eisley 75052 - missing zero pieces, at least that I can remember * Desert Skirff 9496 - Missing 3 pieces, the two back larger brown ones and one clear piece for the stand * Tie Advanced Prototype 75082 - Missing 1 piece, the top hatch * The Phatom 75048 - missing zero pieces *Working on 7965 - just started book 2. so far so good Then there are another 10-15 or so sets in the lot ranging from small to medium builds (Monsters 9468, I know I have 1/2 of kylo ren's ship, Ninja house 70728, down to some ninja saucer things and racers). I would guess that I got more instructions than what is in there based on the mini-figures or parts of mini-figures included, but I'm hopeful I can complete a bunch more. All for $100 which was pretty awesome. I'm debating on parting out the falcon or selling it as is when done. I already have one for myself and after paying myself about a quarter per hour I'll be able to break even on this bulk lot fairly easily and move onto the next one.

71138 would have been the best for the 40th Anniversary.

77777 would have been a winner!

Decided it was time to start grabbing Spiderman Bridges. PMed two at TRU and used discounted GCs/partial pay to get them for $55 each and $10 in rewards back.

Brickpickers are buying! [emoji23]

There's been 30+ posts on the matter, and I still don't know how I feel about it. I fear I've lost the ability to form opinions on the internet when nobody is resorting to personal attacks, Hitler analogies, or sarcastic memes... Come on guys, you're gonna have to work alot harder here to make a compelling argument!

I still haven't had any issues with TRU, but...

lol - yes. including that claw thing creeping in the lower right corner. this was my one and only time. i made a mess, shelf swiped, victory dance/air guitar solo followed by a quick trip to the hanes aisle. sales clerk stocking the shelf literally 2 feet away, eyes wide open mouth agape at the spectacle. i wish i had some security footage. one of my all time greatest surprise lego endorphin rushes.

Why on Earth would that turn off people outside the USA ? This is a piece of history, when Humanity showed what it can do if it focuses on a single goal and put our vast resources into achieving it! President John F. Kennedy announced in 1961 that before the decade was finished mankind would put a man on the moon. It was a huge undertaking, but America did it, and the entire world was witnessing the Moon landing in awe and excitement. It was not just a huge achievement for the USA but for Mankind, as Neil Armstrong so eloquently said when he took his small step down the ladder onto the surface of the Moon! Too bad I was born in 1971 and so I wasn't yet around to witness it. But knowing that a human walked on the Moon still fills me as a fellow human with pride! And now I just hope to live until the first human sets foot on Mars... To answer the question directly: those words of the United States of America belong on this historic spacecraft and I wouldn't want it any other way!

It dramatically alters the meaning if you capitalize. The meaning of the capitalization is better left for other corners of the internet.

Assange on Hoth? Maybe he was also responsible for the leaked pic of the UCS Snowden Speeder.

So Ford should give up on the mustang because it's just a redesign? Both sets are total rebuilds from scratch. Give their designers the credit they're due.

I'm having trouble determining if this is really the better fairground ride.
