that's odd that was in July's wave. Course they like to stagger them throughout the country now. Next wave is below. Few others like Turtle and another one I can't remember at moment. More of the recirculation of poly's already available other places but a few neat ones. Santa should be B&N / Target again like last few years.4 points

"The Joker Steamroller is the new hot toy for this Christmas season. The number of popular Batman Characters and its relatively cheap price combine with an excellent batwing to make a set that every boy will love."3 points

Well, I sold all four of my Gingerbread Houses on Amazon FBA for $709. Missed my goal of paying for the MiLF with free Lego, but close!3 points

I'm calling this as the precursor to a Fairgrounds Rollercoaster set in 2018.3 points

I could totally imagine a medieval monster hunter type theme. Old school Castlevania atmosphere, paladins, dark knights, powerful wizards, clerics and adventurers hunting vampires, werewolves, gorgons and other beasts. One thing was sure for LEGO in recent years: people dig monsters, and a theme like this could be more relatable to people than nexotrash.3 points

A vanilla Castle theme was tried a couple years ago and met with nigh moderate approval altogether. I would imagine something about the concept and general feel behind Nexo Knights and Ninjago have been received well enough to continue forward. Genre mixing has and continues being popular in all forms. Why be stuck under the confines of a strict rule set (aka reality) when a realm of unlimited potential can be born from one's imaginative mind's eye. If anything that is the LEGO Company's core concept and perhaps what attributes to such themes ongoing popularity. Also the level of technology helps these themes to be more relatable with the targeted audience of the present day world.3 points

I tried to find a good .gif for "selling out the back door", but most of the hits returned were of Farrah Abraham. Not the back door I was looking for...2 points

While the design is based on the structure in the movie, this also feels inspired by or at the least similar to that one humongous Joker's Funhouse MOC from a while back. Hopefully those new coaster track pieces are a good indicator of what we can expect to see from LEGO's fairground theme and perhaps some other sets as well.2 points

Not Modular, but I like it, I'm not normally for halfsies on the buildings. Everyone loves the Joker and a fun Playset to boot. Rollercoaster! http://nerdist.com/lego-batman-set-joker-wayne-manor/2 points

I'm pleasantly surprised by this set. Plus, this gives me hope for a Creator Fairground roller coaster (to go with the Ferris Wheel, Carousel and Fairground Mixer) in 2018. Especially since it looks like they have some new elements....the purple coaster track and lime green roller coaster train.2 points

It was sold by Amazon, LLC, and came from an Amazon warehouse. The only other one I've gotten from Amazon came in the LEGO carton, which was fine because it is a very sturdy box. The two I got from SAH were also shipped in the LEGO carton but inside a shipping box as well. I've never seen Amazon ship LEGO without a shipping box before, so this was a nasty surprise.2 points

After getting one from Amazon without a box, I sent it Back. "Whenever I order one now I call Amazon up and tell them I want it sent in a box, and the last 3 have come in one of those perfect Lego Boxes and all were mint, So if you get one on Amazon call them up right away and them them. Here is the shortcut phone number. 1-866-216-10722 points

So it seems that customer support is pretty clueless. So I already have one, but just for kicks I had a few moments and decided to call LEGO customer support and ask when I might be able to place an order. On the first two calls the service agent only told me they would be getting them available as soon as possible. But they have no date known. The third call led me to someone who said they will appear here and there in store to try and get some on the shelves while they continue sending out the back orders, but likely won't open back up for online or phone orders until 2018 due to the massive backlog of sets they need to create. He may have no idea what he is talking about, but with one sealed at home the profit margin would climb the closer it gets to Christmas if no new orders are available. It will make for a holly jolly Christmas whether I keep it for me, or the price jumps so much that I can get my next one for free.1 point

That sounds like daylight robbery. Good job. Depends how you input the 600 mile trip into your costing.1 point

I'll probably regret this, but I'm going to wait until back order comes in to put feelers out. The one sitting in the corner of my room...that I drove 3.5 hours for in the middle of the night (after my wife yelled at me for being "irresponsible and stupid", got in line at 4 am, was escorted out of the mall at 6 am, but was still 1st in line (didn't get anything special)...we have a special bond! I am resigned to the fact that this "early production " doesn't mean anything, but it still has a special place in my heart, and wallet! We'll see. I will at least be able to get my money back sooner or later. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with all of the time I've been wasting refreshing my order status 274 times a day once it does ship.....1 point

Hey, I think I earned partial credit in imaginary points. This should've been one of the first sets, instead of one of the last. Also, make it a 2-in-1 with instructions for regular Wayne Manor online.1 point

Very nice. I like it. Does look a bit fragile. The roller coaster is very neat...would be great if it can be motorised but doubt so.1 point

Some of the TRU exclusives are also carried by Barnes and Noble. Wonder Woman is there as well as Jedi Starfighter with Hyperdrive. Maybe others.1 point

Honestly, with Harry Potter, they can have all the wizards they need. I see this is as the swansong for Nexo, R+D budget is clearly minimal and these sets are just filler to keep the commitment to a 3 year run. Don´t be surprised to see it ending in the summer.1 point

My FREECASH points disappeared last week, only to return Friday with a clear "in store only" clause. Expiring today. I happened to be relatively close to a KMart in KY, so I popped by to check it out. Indeed, worked like a charm ..... Thanks again for the free LEGO, Kmart! Btw, clearance was still at 30% off, and was all dumped on low shelves towards the front of the store. Luckily there's still more clearance hiding on top shelves, and the bigger and better sets for that matter. Might need to keep an eye out1 point

I use this video to motivate my kids. No matter how high and mighty you become in the galaxy, repeated failure (losing 2 Death Stars, forgetting about security cameras when wiping out your academy, not taking the high ground, consistently delegating to morons, etc...) will drag you back down to reality.1 point

Wondering the same thing? Isn't it good for people on here as investors that these sets, especially the limited ones at Leicester Square, are doing so well? Shows the market is strong. Those 150 are the special ones after all, as none had special first run certificates or anything. So those first 150 are the closest we can get to being "limited edition", surely that's a good thing?1 point

Ok, that makes sense. We get early access to 2 sets on Sept 14th, MF and the winter one, right? A TLBM exclusive makes sense considering the other Lego movies have had one, but I guess they will leave it for early 2018 with what should be the final wave of sets from that license. It´s strange they didnt release it earlier this year when there was a gap in exclusives between Assembly Square and Silent Mary as I fullly expect all TLBM sets to be done by end of 2018. I can see a lot of the first wave sets retiring this winter and it would not be a surprise if the second wave had a very short run, similar to TLM.1 point
