Bought this yesterday and built half of it, completed second half just now.

So elkthunder became an instant legend at the estate sale today, buying the entire city. I was in the hunt for it but ultimately passed as I don't have the resources or space for such a massive collection. Can't believe he drove 8 hours for it and got it all!

Finished it tonight. A load of extra pieces which made me a little concerned that I missed a step or two. However even with all the extra pieces I was still missing two 1x4 plates which I made due by replacing them with Lego branded parts. Overall the end model is quite stunning in it's sheer size. Part of me wants to cover up some studs on the saucer section but it's a building block model and and not a studio model. The Warp Nacelles are my favorite part of the model. Wish there was a way to keep them lit up for more than a few seconds.

Good ole stolen Lego...lol.

i think you quoted the wrong person, but if you talking Asses, they are everywhere.

When I die I'm hoping that my ghost can attend the estate sale and watch all of you vultures fight over my stash of Joker Steamrollers.

This morning I sold a used / complete 4842 Hogwarts Castle for $305/shipped on eBay. I purchased it a couple of weeks ago for $150 off of my local Offerup. I also purchased a used / complete 4195 Queen Anne's Revenge for $150 from the same person. The Hogwarts covers the cost of my initial buy in on this transaction, so whatever I sell the Queen Anne for will be pure gravy. I love finding local deals like these, as few and far between as they are.

I love deep discounts on retired Lego. The Duplo boxes are dinged up, but at 75% off I'll take it. BAM 10% member discount and $25 off $100 membership coupon.

Funny because I live about 20 minutes from the place, and figured I could get her to lower the price a bit - nope! I ended up getting a few nice custom sets a built falling water, trains, train stations, Big Ben sealed, un building sealed, minifigures, some old game boy games, some board games, and paid up for it 600 bucks! Had to fight to get her down from 815! After elks transaction, I guess she thought all the sets are tons of money. Quite a mess in my house right now

Didn't buy it today, but it came today! Ordered Thursday morning, arrived Saturday morning. That FedEx truck must have done 0.5 past lightspeed!

Pretty good couple days 75151 turbo tank 75156 krennic shuttle 75102 poes xwing on offer up got all 3 for $130 went in tonight with my 2 kids to the lego store didn't have much left but got 75170 phantom, 75165imp trooper bp and the guy checking me out gave us 3 r2 polys ?

7130 Snowspeeder and 7180 B-Wing completed. They are in almost mint shape.

I didn't get to post yesterday, but I picked up the Snowspeeder and R2 online as an early Father's Day gift and then hit the Lego Store to spend some gift cards. I picked up Slave I (I have decided I will never find a discount) and Yoda here decided that she also wanted a "rocket ship." I love that she is getting into all of this with me!

Who designed this and who signed off on this?????

BAM Pro-tip: I believe the new-member email coupons are "perpetual use"... that is, I'm pretty sure I've used mine (same ones) again and again.

Damn, I was hoping for a Joker Steamroller sale story.

CHROME! WITNESS!!!

Built this since it was may the 4th. Thanks to Tabby Boy for the sale.

Star Trek fan!

I renewed today and already have my new email of coupons. Call CS.

I'm sure elkthunder will have a good story when he gets home tonight- he's probably still there packing up. Must have gotten about 30 modulars- about 1/2 are custom. The layout was amazing, but I didn't have time to admire it.

I'll mark December of 2112

Hopefully not any time soon so that my stash has time to "mature" and make it worth your while.

Maybe I am alone here on this...maybe not, but after looking at my 10129 on my shelf for the last decade, I can safely say that this set does not excite me. Sorry to be a Party Pooper.

Those Jungle sets are just missing one piece....

3 x at st from tesco. £15 each in the clearance section. so cancelled my 2 back orders from lego. happy days

I'm going to go with "has she got a sister?"

I was finally in a position where I had money and could make a pilgrimage to the Salt Lake City Lego store to get this bad boy and finally build it. The one thing I want to say that seems a bit odd and bums me out a bit, is the fact that they use two rubber rings to connect the bottom portions of the wings. I wonder if to get the angle they had to go this way, or if there actually could be a way to keep it up without using the rings. Now I know some of you guys have whined about the old snowspeeder, but seriously this thing is beyond beautiful in person. It was a satisfying build and has some serious weight behind it. For those that are on the fence, just fork over the money and buy it!

I just finished building a MOC of FW38 from last season. Getting started on the FW40.

150 elements and 40 stickers... overly cringed. took me almost 90min to finish this one because of those freaking stickerz. Other than that great little build for fairly good price. Great little details for such scale. (huge F1 fan here)

That's great news on 4842, as well. I pulled one out of a bulk lot 2 years ago, and flipped it for $200.

Such a beautiful set, yet it doesn't seem to sell at all here. One of my local toy stores has a huge stack of them (at least 20) in the Lego aisle. As far as I can tell not a single one has been sold yet. Then again they are stubbornly keeping the price at 229€. I think it's stupid to stack these up in to a 3 meter high tower and putting a big sign on them. Better to have a handful in the isles and keep the rest in stock. Perceived scarcity... I'm curious to see if the Ninjago movie will be able to change any of this, though I doubt parents are going to drop 229€ on this.

There is a fetish for everything these days. To each his own I guess.

Which I still say is a rip off of my Emmet's Beach House. I want my 1% LEGO. Hey I tried
