Built the docking bay 327 which will be the new home of my recently purchased 10179.

My son and I have been building the Hoth rebel base. I have to admit I don’t understand the hate for this one. We did add two large base plates and a lot of white plates to flush it out and we will probably add a tunnel and baca tank area.

$70 local pick up. Turbo Tank and Hoth Attack are sealed. Ewok Attack seems to be in near-perfect condition.

Looks like Star Wars Kylo Ren Shuttle is back in stock at Toy R US. Still 50% off https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=57582706 Not my thing but I hope this helps some of you.

just going to point out that bitcoin price was $754 last Christmas Eve. if you bought and held through last Xmas and did absolutely nothing, at the current "crashing" price of $13500ish, you'd be up to 18x on your investment. like a town hall bought at msrp selling for a little over $3600. hey it might happen. there is no bad time to hodl. it's the winning strategy. until the banks buy up all the bitcoin and ether and people get super rich.

TARGET 12/26/17 SALE FWIW... I saw prices drop on a lot of sets, and confirmed prices from a second, more reliable source. The word is that the 12/26 pricing database was released a few days early. Corporate sent a memo on this that there were to be no further toy markdowns before 12\26. Manual prices changes will take place overnight so they're ready for 12/26 opening. So, be on the watch if you want to pick a certain store/sets to stalk on 12/26. And per Target policy since its a clearance sale you can't buy it now and get a price adjustment on 12/26. Price list is in the Target Clearance thread:

here is my template for missing boxes request: 1. Box # [XXX] of [YYY] has been shipped with Amazon Partner Carrier for FBA with Tracking number [ZZZZZ] 2. It has been delivered on aa/bb/cccc 3. All other boxes TTTT/YYYY of Shipment:UUUUUUU has been received items in inventory. 4. Since it has been 45 days since the Shipment:UUUUUUU and item has not been in the inventory 5. Please investigate and reimburse according to amazon FBA guideline. { we believe we should be covered under [either lost in transit (covered by partner carrier) or lost in warehouse (per amazon FBA policy)] [ usually, they find box after few days. ] [ 2 times i have/had to attach pictures of contents before packing and boxes ] after that incident there has been 0(zero) incident of lost receipts. but if they have denied your claim 3 times there is nothing one can do except call your assigned seller representative or email @bezos

Bought a used DeLorean for $45 that was listed as potentially incomplete with box and instructions. Arrived today and it's all there.

In my opinion you're looking for a connection that isn't there. Every new wave has one or a few sets from the OT and PT. There's a new General Grievous Starfighter in the Winter wave. Do you think he has some role to play in Episode 9 as well? There's a "new" Mos Eisley Cantina set too. Do you think Kylo Ren visits Tatooine in Episode 9? Of course not. TLG just soft reboots the old designs in most cases to fill out the wave. How many Droid Escape Pod sets have there been? They save their "effort" (such as it is) to put out newly designed sets for the newest movie.

Sorry if this is a repost. Walmart has the new Lego Architecture Shanghai 21039 set available for $47.99, it's 20% below MSRP. https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Architecture-Shanghai-21039/628772294

Winter village and north pole.

Mini GE. I really hope Lego gets around to releasing more of these.

I’m new here. I have a THE Lego fish sculpture that was displayed for years at Disney Marketplace in Orlando Florida. I bought it at a garage sale about 9 or 10 years ago because it was too cool to pass up. It needs to find a new home. Does anyone know how much it might be worth and where I can advertise it? I’d like for it to find a home with someone who will truly appreciate its uniqueness. It is about 4 feet long and weighs around 150 pounds so shipping might be an issue. I think it would be a shame to post it on local Craigslist, but unless I can find a better venue that’s where it will end up.

santa got me that already Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

Ok who nabbed John Lewis’s stock? Own up! They have a minecraft set on a medium offer for someone that wants it but nothing else? If anyone got a bargain I’d love to hear about it? Or did they move all their stock to the shops for in store sales?? LEGO Minecraft 21122 The Nether Fortress £59.99

yup, doesn't look like it, item finally arrived at city and with a delivery date of tuesday now after being in limbo for 6 days. item was shipped on Monday and should have been delivered Wednesday. This is just stupid. Buyer has been incredibly nice considering, but I am p***ed . if they are running behind they should add shifts. and why add drop off deadlines if you cant meet them .. %^$#@#@#@#

2018 2hy sets:

Still waiting for mine. I was hoping to get it by the end of the year but LEGO was not printing these cards out fast enough to reach 6 weeks after I purchased it. I bought the set on Sep 15th by the way.

I didn’t get the Baze. I got distracted by the Tankers that mysteriously appeared a little before the sale. Will I regret not getting it. Bazed a confused.

Exactly! It's like saying people won't buy a UCS X-Wing because they could buy Poe's X-Wing or the Resistance X-Wing. Or people won't buy the UCS TIE Fighter because they could buy the FO Tie Fighter. The system-scale sets are play sets, and they aim at their own markets. If anything, collector's want to have the best version of a vehicle. Nobody will trade in their 10174 Imperial AT-ST UCS set for the newer system-scaled 75183 AT-ST Walker. Or the 10212 Imperial Shuttle UCS set for the Imperial Shuttle Tydirium. Knowing there's a bigger and better version out there while make real collectors want it!

Yes, I did.. probably you have missed my submission before when I said that nowadays - whatever crypto it is - is unfortunatelly linked to BTC development. NOw - the hordes that are buying BTC - are just PLAIN STUPID! .. they dont know a hack about differences between currencies so if BTC falls - everything falls and vice versa.. That is just the current state of affair. So dont blame IOTA or Ripple or any other currency that ts not doing well - its all that mass hysteria that BTC aka "all cryptos" are falling. have a look at the graphs at cointmarketcap.com - there its absolutely without a shadow of a doubt visible: BTC falls - ALL 150 currencies fall at the same time..

We can discuss the many reasons why the UCS Sandcrawler underperforms, but I am wondering why an inferior set would hurt the UCS Sandcrawler's value. I would think it would help it.

@exciter1's patience on some of those exceeded mine, but I feel like I'm getting better since I sold many at similar or higher prices. Recent highlights: $45 Flash v Capt Cold Mighty Micro $70 Supermarket Suitcase $80 41085 Vet Clinic $58 60118 Garbage Truck $80 76041 Hydra Fortress Smash

Next time, just ask for forgiveness later.

Triple Mid Section Tram

4 trees total. Spent $22 in points and $52 in cash to get them. Received $207 in points. Hoping to get $60 total for the trees. Bought $350 MSRP of LEGO for those points, with $30 left in points. Net result: $8 cash (hopefully), $30 in points and $350 worth of LEGO.

I got this.. well .. actually not today but on Saturday, but it took some time to make pictures: http://vault.wmce.cz/171219_renault_creator/template.html

Non-fruitcake story: Sometimes buyers aren't scamming us and being difficult. And sometimes we're providing a valuable service not just creating false scarcity and driving up prices. I've been sending confirmation texts because I've had had a lot of buyers with new accounts and people with mismatched PayPal/eBay info ordering gifts for other people. They've mostly been happy to confirm their orders. One of them wrote also just wrote back to say they received their order and to thank me for the quick turnaround on their order. After exchanging thank yous, the buyer also let me know that I'd made their holiday easier because they were going through chemo and had a tough time getting out to shop.

Update on the situation, My order is now in the warehouse and looks like it will be shipped tomorrow. No email from lego so I called them and they said it was manually put through. Didn't give me a reason why it was cancelled but happy to now getting this glorious set for Christmas! God Bless all and have a nice night!

I’m in. Love getting these figs right away just don’t have the desire to smoosh these ones this time. Can’t beat the price.

Hello again! Our Brickpicker price for a pre-order shipping late January will be as follows: Box = $208 Set $76 FREE domestic shipping (+ $25 for box and $10 for set on international shipping). Please DM your PayPal email address for invoice if you are interested in this offer. Happy holidays and happy building!

After looking through The Lego Book for what has to be the thousandth time my eyes focused on set 3221 Lego Truck from 2010 and I knew instantly I had to have it. After seeing the price it was selling for I decided to BrickLink the parts. Fortunately it only took 3 orders and cost under $40. My daughter said, “Daddy, it only real needs the Lego sticker on the cab of the truck”, so using her wisdom I did exactly that and it really does have too many Lego stickers (down the side and on the back doors) and other stickers for my liking. The minifigures are close to the originals in the actual set and inspiration struck to create an Alex minifigure from Ice Road Truckers and that is the reason for the brown hat for the driver! Maybe I should use the truck to deliver all the packages with the sets we have been selling during the Christmas season. I have sold more sets than ever recently and I hope you all are doing the same.

Hey would you look at that? My credit card jumped out of my wallet and flipped me the middle finger. Whelp...I guess that means I'm calling it quits for the season. See you all for the after Christmas sales lol!

I like Zod, Jor-El, and the mermaid Batman for the absurdity.

UCS Sandcrawler this weekend Looks great alongside other UCS Star Wars stuff Snowspeeder next weekend!

Bad performer to a worse performer, good move.

Nooooooooooo! I only bought the MILF to get the Porgs!

Probably based on a pretty famous sculpt used on several collectibles. There was a book series called "The Bounty Hunter Wars" which describes his escape from the Sarlacc Pit and his adventures after. I was never a fan of the whole premise.

Due to the recent crime wave the LegoPD are in full force!

Finally...

I was greatly amused by the Brando version of Jor El.

just like remakes/releases, it is good for the fans who weren't there for the originals. #sarcasm

Apparently by 2020, the Lego catalogue will purely consist of Millennium Falcons and City helicopters.

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.
