That ship just sucks compared to the original. It's hideous. Nearly everything has been taken down a notch for the real version. Junk.2 points

So I read this article about investing in cryptos and I want to start too. I can borrow $10k on a low APR credit card, what cryptos should I buy so I can pay it all off and retire with the profits next year?2 points

Decent points back - online only, Sears - on select Mechanic's tool sets, hand tools, etc. Spend $75 or more, receive $50. And many of the items are already on sale. Got the 118-pc Mechanic's Tool Set. It was already on sale $40 off. Plus I redeemed $4 in points. Total cash outlay $81, but got $52 back in points. Not as good a deal as the Smart Sense 1:1, but if you need some tools it is not bad. There are some really nice items at a deep discount but were only available for store pick-up, so you might get lucky.2 points

the orginal ship looks better to me but the LEGO bottle looks way better. If you make the ship bigger the bottle has to be bigger and doesn't seem to look as real and accurate. The focus really isn't the ship in this set anyways and more the whole package as a dipslay piece. For a little ship (the only part I did so far) it was a pretty neat little build.1 point

I found three banged up Lone Ranger Silver Mine Shootout for $70 or $79, I forgot at the Markham and Steeles location in Markham. I bought two AT-STs which were $34.86 each and left one which had a pretty beaten box.1 point

The price argument is a weak one IMO. Maybe there is piece and/or design issues, but charge another $20 and deliver a better set. $70...$80...$90...What's the difference? (Don't say $10 or $20...LOL). This set is not designed for kids IMO. It's another set designed for adults, who have the money to buy the more intricate set.1 point

I think each version has its pros and cons. My main issue is that fans voted on one version of the set. I don't think people just voted on the idea of a ship in a bottle. When they do things like this and they don't sell as well as they want, they'll just blame fans for voting on something they didn't really want to buy instead of realizing that they materially changed what people said they were interested in having.1 point

Sorry, it looks like all the deals lately have been "business price" I cant tell its business only unless you click on "all sellers" that is where it tells you its business only1 point

I know 3 people in FL that got their cards today with different original purchase dates. 1 via pre order, 2 via wait list. Different parts of FL. Mailed from Hungary. Lego told me mine was considered "lost" and they added me to a reprint would be here by Feb end. Other two did not request reprints. So there ya go. Take it as you will. Card is like a little credit card as far as form and material goes.1 point

Ended up duplicating the shipment plan, and with a stroke of luck one of the shipments it created covered all the items in this "failed" shipment, plus it saved me a few bucks on shipping as the FC was closer to me. Phew.1 point

I throw all the polybags out in the living room and have my wife put them in plastic polybags while she is watching TV or something. Those bags tear too easily to send in loose.1 point

Finished this up last week - hands down one of favorite sets, both in terms of the building process as well as the final result. If you are on the fence at all, I highly recommend it! It would be nice if LEGO put out a descent small sail boat to go with this - I have some of the recent Fishing Boats stored away, but somehow one of those just doesn't seem to do this set justice...1 point

I realized I've only been sorting bulk and laying out pieces for sets to see what I'm missing without building any sets for months, so I pulled out the pieces for 6278. Along with my pirate ships, this was one of the largest sets I owned in my childhood. I used to make stop motion videos of the islanders against the pirates using a camera that weighed about 10 pounds. There's a VHS tape around somewhere with what could become The LEGO Pirates Movie. I will need to work on the special effects, though.1 point

Sold my last 75192 MILF for $1200 cash. Sold the second for $1300 cash. And sold my spot in line opening day for $200 cash. Plus VIP points for buying the two, and black VIP cards for myself and my wife. I'll get one for me eventually... hopefully when someone discounts it. It took longer than anticipated, but I'm happy with the return.1 point

Riding club 41126, £40 cash, £28 buy in. Wonder Woman 76075, £30 cash, £20.99 buy in. Guardians of the Galaxy 76081, £40 cash, £24 buy in. Can almost afford to buy another Lego set now.1 point

I think crypto is at the "Lego is better than gold" point in its lifespan as there is a lot of new money from people that were not previously in this space, both big investors and soccer moms. So the market is being propped back up again but I think the next drop will be even bigger and not sure if there will be enough new money for another rebound. So the BTP will get out and the commoners will be left holding the bag. I too am bullish on ETH and think it will come out on top, well I hope so as I did 3 more limit buys yesterday. I did a double up on TRX in less then 48 hours and think it will 10x quickly once they launch their gaming platform in a few weeks. There is definitely easy money to be had for those that have the skill to day trade like @TabbyBoyis doing.1 point

Yeah! Egghead is here! Decided to jump on a price match to Walmart and used a 20% off gift card, so Egghead was $19.20. I had to build him before@Alpinemaps had the chance, so here he is. Cool set and Condiment King is a nice bonus.1 point

Correct, I suspected I might when I received the email. I cancelled long before the email was sent out.1 point

I do agree it should have been a 199.99 set. That I won't argue with, and I actually bought this one for 180 after tax, so I couldn't complain. It's definitely not a bad set when you put it all together and plate it. I think the hate on it is even more overrated. My boy will get plenty of hours of playtime out of this one.. I do hope Cloud City is next. .. i'll buy all these large scale environment sets like this from the OT era.1 point
