75054 - AT-AT 75050 - B-Wing 75092 - Naboo Starfighter 75094 - Imperial Shuttle Tydirum 75105 - Millennium Falcon Based on the rest of the images the AT-AT and IST are complete. Naboo Starfighter is missing the antennas, the remaining parts to the b-wing look to be in the clothes basket along with a ton of MF pieces. Most of the minifigs are there as well, the missing may be among the parts in the basket. Wasn't stopping to ask questions before I hit BIN. Not bad for $47 shipped.9 points

Well, I’ve been quite busy for the past 6 months or so…but I have been slowly piecing together and building a train terminal that I purchased the instructions from on eBay (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Station-PDF-instructions-MOC-Building-City-Modular-/152374747648?hash=item237a3e2200). I also did some modifications and customized it a little bit by adding a comic shop and a small convenience store (with stickers from Brick Builders Pro (http://www.brickbuilderspro.com/). It was quite the project and I just finished it, so I thought I would show some pictures to you all. I had some help sourcing some of the parts from my local Bricks and Minifigs store. There are around 12,000-13,000 parts to the building. Eventually I plan on adding a 60051 High Speed Passenger train or two and doing some more changes/modifications to it….but I am going to save that for a later date.4 points

One thing I purchased that has helped out immensely with identifying parts, applying stickers and inspecting parts is one of those hobby lighted magnifier headset things... Like this one... https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01D4SP5ZO/ref=mp_s_a_1_3/144-0217726-0542939?ie=UTF8&qid=1510847481&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=hobby+magnifier+headset It will not win you any fashion awards....but it is handy...2 points

These B2B deals involving Lego are getting out of hand. Even my chimney sweep has some sort of loyalty card where 10 visits gives you a Chima Fire Bike.2 points

I'm still a buyer on whatever trickle of copies I have on this. Way too early to declare it dead with any degree of certainty - we're currently at peak supply but at least an order of magnitude away from peak demand. LEGO does appear to have learned something from their underestimation of demand for the RI set, but if this becomes a must-have - and there's still slots available for must-haves this season, very few breakout toys - then we could easily be back to $75 a pop for these around December 11 or so. I would snap-buy 40 at MSRP if I had the chance.2 points

Not sure where to place this so I'll put it here. 41489 has been available from Target for a couple days now. My order has shipped already. LEGO® 41489 BrickHeadz Limited Edition Star Wars™ Rey™ and Kylo Ren™ Collector's Pack https://www.target.com/p/lego-174-brickheadz-limited-edition-star-wars-153-rey-153-and-kylo-ren-153-collector-s-pack/-/A-529462941 point

Usually the fake ones do not have the tri bar at the top of the head. They have nothing it's just an open hole on the top of the Lego head. All the other detail is there, but the lack of the tri bar means that the Lego head is fake. Older Lego heads from the 80s do not have the tri bar and have the Lego symbol on top of their head. Unless the people you get Lego from purchase knockoffs online there isn't a high probability that you're going to find a bunch of knock off Lego Minifigures.

Scuttler reminds me of Benny's Spaceship, cool set, but never going to do anything.1 point

They should not really be released till January and often the shipping boxes have do not display stickers on them. Last year most stuff was already available in mid December - I suspect it was Lego trying to get more turnover at the end of the financial year. If they are consenting to these mid November releases too, it´s probably for the same reason.1 point

The thread isn't updated yet and was for mainly US retirements last year. You'll have to read through for now to see the daily updates on European retirements. Maybe I should have let @Pseudoty answer this.1 point

thought i was out, but i guess i am not.... someone who sells on amazon prime offered me $45 a set for my 9 sets (through ebay) i have quite a few more then 9 - i was able to pull the transaction off outside of ebay for 10 sets, so I took it.... $450 / 436 after fees - close to $40 for shipping for a total of $140 profit on 10 sets..... I am fine for that being that i am a QFLL had to look that up QFLL -love it ! -my philosophy is pretty simple.... "what would $300 bucks in the bank do for you over the course of a year....... ? " will still buy at $25-27 a pop! PP1 point

I never got stuck with my Death Stars, before the word came out that it was being reissued I was selling them for $500-600, then when the word got out I was still getting $450-500, "Don't forget I got mine early when Lego & Amazon,Etc had good sales, plus when Tru had the buy 2 get one free, and the best sale was when getting loads of them for $262.00 from Barnes and Noble with the 30% Kids coupon book, plus 10% Membership. So I made good money, not as good if they didn't do I remake.1 point

I think @TabbyBoy touches on this point, as a big change is that timeliness is more of a consideration, including with the flipping / arbitrage. Sitting on a retired set and expecting it to go up forever is not realistic - if you're sitting on gold, just sell into hype and reap a comfortable profit rather than getting greedy. Keep that capital flowing with a positive margin and you're in a good spot. There are a ton of examples within the past few years for sets that rose modestly, then dropped off again. Parabolic was mentioned. If a set is high and there's a good margin, just take the money and run, even if you're not on the top of the curve. No way to know that. Things don't just accrue into skyhigh oblivion, especially when remakes, new huge lego sets, fakes, all provide ample competition with each other. There are more sets than ever to chose from, both new and old, and that's not changing. I don't think that's a sign of doom - making lego more available than ever is a good thing for its popularity, but devaluing brand via over-expansion is a concern too. Lego is a toy, and most lego is seen and bought as toys, which do not make good investments whatsoever. You probably shouldn't be hoarding friends, city, uniconic star wars sets, for RRP... some of the pics I've seen, those scare me. Not all lego goes up or sells. Some things are solely parting out packs for bricklink stores if you get it on sale. And that's only if you don't value your free time and enjoy scoops of pennies and nickles. There are so many lego sets now, you really have to chose wisely, or for good sales. I buy basically nothing at RRP, and only buy a few times a year when the deals or pickin's feel right. Stack points, wait for deals and sales, whatever. Oops, don't mind me, just accidentally authoring misplaced speculation bubble posts ?1 point
