Whoops.

This has been on my short list for a while now. Finally snagged one complete (no box) for under $200. I Can't wait to set up the winter village now.

After randomly being sent to Alaska my package has finally come! The last piece of the puzzle! Now I have every Marvel SDCC exclusive!

Ransomware sale, 2017

Everybody needs rubber bands.

I didn't know where else to put this, but it's a great video taken inside the LEGO Archive Vault by Beyond the Brick. Just brilliant to watch all these old and in many cases long forgotten sets and themes:

I'm an 11-year vet of the US Army. I have US flag representations in LEGO bricks throughout my city display. I don't find them offensive in the least, as long as it's represented with dignity & respect. As long as you're not depicting it on the ground, being burned, tattered, etc., it'd be pretty ridiculous for anyone to take issue.

What did I miss? Why the change of the flag? And for what? I'm confused.

Looks fine to me. Nowadays your going to offend someone no matter what you do though. I wouldn't worry about it.

I do! Hopefully this helps.

Fixed that for ya...

The UCS Tie was a little over 30% off on Prime Day. Two weeks later was a pricing error on AMZ and the UCS Tie was 76% off.

That's still the worst vehicle I have ever seen (76086)

3/4 of the marketing and advertising industry in UK are down for maintenance because of ransomware, I'm off today because of the Petya virus which spread across the entire industry within hours shutting down entire facilities and companies leaving us completely unable to work or even use computers. Who knows what's behind this maintenance thing...

Nope, there's no offense. I'd just think it was a Haitian soldier.

Never understood the superhero hatred on here. They do great for me. I already sold my Dr Strange sets for twice retail on Amazon Canada. If people dont want theirs PM me. They're gold Jerry gold!

Hell's no, I wear them to Packers games.

Because we’re invested in the existing universe and want the existing universe on the big screen.

Yeah, my sons were very put off by the different voices. Why not just use the original voice actors? How much more marketing buzz gets generated by having Fred Armisen voice one of the characters? I've never understood having famous people be voices for animated films.

Welcome to Brickpicker's Amazon Prime Day 2017 thread! Amazon Prime Day will be Tuesday, July 11. Link to the 2016 thread. Some general info: Try to put all conversation/rumors/speculation/facts here in this thread. Use this thread for ALL deals that you want to share (not just LEGO deals). We will try to cross post LEGO deals to both this thread and Daily Deals. We will try to sticky the deals list and keep it up to date (as best we can).

Getting way off-topic, but most things that have to do with college and can be funded by student loans are a racket these days. Education is a wonderful and powerful thing, but the fact that the federal government subsidizes student loans and has made student loan debt non dischargeable in bankruptcy has allowed many college-related industries to inflate prices in ways that are objectively harmful to those that the underlying policies are meant to help.

Little disturbing return came in today. Had a Nasa Saturn V come back UPS with reason REFUSED, RECEIVER DID NOT ORDER today. Only noticed it right away as it was a fellow member here who is quite active in the community. Box came back partially open and inside was a set far from what was sent. Little shocked as the user had purchased multiples from us and a few were drop shipped and one went to them. The one that went to them was the one that was refused. No email, no contact, no nothing just an unexpected return. The set box was heavily damaged and cut on the side and had loose pieces rattling. Luckily after taking the time to inventory everything was there so no huge loss there. Guess the the fact that no communication was made at all from an experienced seller and someone part of the group so to speak is what got to me most. Funny thing was the listing was for distressed box items which were actually not bad at all and were from factory sealed cases and I noticed the username before shipping and actually sent them ones that were not even distressed. The box inside still had the 40lb craft paper perfectly intact as shown and the shipping box was not in to bad of shape considering the distance it went there and back. Yet somehow the set I received back looked like this and had loose pieces. Who knows maybe it happened in transit. Maybe they forgot to change the dropship address like the others they shipped and never meant for it to go to them. Maybe they didn't need it anymore after getting more of there own to fulfill there orders. I'll go with one of those theories in my head seeing the person didn't make any contact. You would think though if it was along those lines they would of contacted saying the set was damaged and asked for a return or if we had replacements or better yet just fill out an automated return. Again the lack of communication leads the mind to think of worse things. Would hate to think a fellow member would intentionally do something like that. The close to 4 hour time it was delivered then dropped off to a UPS store for the refusal was a little strange too. 06/22/2017 12:56 P.M. Delivered 06/22/2017 4:42 P.M. The shipment has been dropped off and is now at The UPS Store®. 06/22/2017 7:57 P.M. The receiver states the product was not ordered and has refused the delivery. / The package will be returned to the sender. I've dealt with many members on here both buying and selling and never ran across any issues. Some orders very large and some very small. Everyone that I have dealt with knows how I pack and the time I take to do everything properly and the materials we use so to even have anything get damaged is a rarity. Think in last 4 years or so I might of had 1 or 2 items get damaged to that extent and they were small sets. Guess I am just shocked this happened from a community where everyone pretty much knows each other after all these years and there stores / usernames etc. It's a pretty small group in the big scheme of things that is active and partakes daily. I went back and forth to whether to mention it at all but figured I would share. The fact the user felt no need to contact me is what led to me posting without contacting them. Anyways you're refund has been done.

Did you try checking out? I ran into the same problem in my cart but the points showed up to redeem when I went to place the order.

Probably is, since winner got a minifigure named after them, and Sienna isn't one of the Friends

Thrown in the same package on top of whatever LEGO sets you buy that day.

We'll have a dedicated thread for that day again.

It's never been that great, from what I recall.

I like the sand green in the Aquaman set.

Sold a Dr. Who Ideas set for € 63. Buy-in was € 45.

Agreed. The 1st Amendment protects, not targets people (civilians)... however, if the person is military (as noted by@AirborneAFOL), the rules are different, as people are governed by the UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice), which 'alters' a person's rights and don't have full 1st Amendment rights (i.e. Can't speak against the President / Commander-In-Chief).

There is no such law. There's probably a few exceptions, like a military recruiter telling you not to serve could be a dereliction of duty, or helping someone burn their draft card could be an accomplice to a crime. But there's no law to the effect of what you're asking about. And to my knowledge, there never has been. 1st Amendment is pretty generous when it comes to "free speech". It's perfectly legal to burn flags, slander the military, et al. Even modest attempts to curtail those types of "speech" over the years have been unequivocally shot down by the courts. I suspect the context of the song lyric is it wouldn't be legal for YOU to not register for the draft (not that its illegal to merely tell you not to). Selective service requires all 18-yr old males to register. The draft hasn't been used since Vietnam, but registration is still required.

Think of them really asking this then consider your response. I am a reselling scumbag I have the money for your items I just want them cheaper so I can make more money so please knock 80% off your price for me

7pm Wild Win Game under Extra $2 dolla! ? damn you beat me

Even I have two and I am the sort of reseller scum that avoids SH like the plague. That´s what makes me think the reseller to buyer ratio will not be favourable.

I can't speak of any deals but enjoy the sightseeing. Since you are coming for the first time, it is normal to hear Sorry a lot.

For a friend, right?

In for some leggings, push-up bras, and some yoga pants.

Droid Escape Pod. Better than expected. Now I have an excuse to slice open one of my UCS Sandcrawlers!

It's sinking

What? I'm already looking forward to 10264 Black Cab and 10270 Boris Bike. And don't forget mini figures series 20. The Cockneys. Including Chimney Sweep, Pearly King and Queen, Market Stall Seller, Beefeater and many more.

Slave 1 completed and added to the UCS ship shelf.

picked up the lego 42056 porsche 911

Great, another thing to ponder. I'm never going to get anything done. I'll take it as a milestone. I've been here long enough, and posted often enough for you guys to be curious. This is a badge of honor. I will seek out an appropriate picture. I may test a few before settling on one. I can assure everyone, there will be no cat involved. I apologize to the feline lovers out there. But it ain't me.

This has been updated This is always tough with newer sets because the average values aren't solid yet for it to strip out the really low prices of parted out sets or really high ones of bundled sets. I get raw data, so there is nothing that says to use only these great listings. There is a bunch of garbage in there that needs to be weeded through. Should have this corrected soon, sorry about the delay. This should be updated now.
