I don't see why TRU has a problem with this guy. He learned this technique from them. Check the TRU warehouses, they have millions of dollars of products they haven't paid for either.

I think it is because the flash is messing with the timeline again. 60% off. https://www.target.com/p/lego-174-dc-comics-174-justice-league-super-heroes-batman-s-knight-crawler-tunnel-attack-76086/-/A-52105124

One Assembly Square from Target already shipped and I know I'm not the only one who has a shipment confirmation. This one was ordered standard 2-day shipping, not expedited.

Nervous about this one, but sold my last Lego Ideas Mars Rover 21104 on Amazon for $329.99. Added signature confirmation requirement on delivery, took a bunch of pictures as I double-boxed it...fingers crossed now.

I'm happy that these are shipping, but I always have a sense of dread knowing this crap is showing up.

I figured all lined up, these AS and DS will be about perfect to stretch out my sleeping bag on in the back alley.

Good news

In for 3

Here is my order status screen..

The one morning my wife is receptive to my advances and I fall back asleep...

For my son’s 6th birthday he got 76097 Lex Luthor Mech Takedown. I gotta say I love the look of this thing. Doesn’t hurt that one of my all-time favorite super heroes, Firestorm was inside.

I just got back from a target that had an assembly square managed get it for $80 without much hassle surprisingly! They only let me have one.

All Targets in my area have 41322 friends snow ice rink on sale for $19.19 (36% off) DPCI 086-14-0864

I went to Target looking for the 19.99 Friends bumper cars (found none) but bought these 5 in 1 Target exclusives for 24.98 each (50% off) instead.

Now that some orders are cancelling..that ocean monument is getting my attention. Here I come baby! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

Though not yet officially SOL, I'd like to put myself on the waitlist for anyone's damaged AS (should they receive a dented, holed or otherwise mangled AS). Pretty please ?!? .....

My 3 Death Stars just shipped, awesome! Got 3 for the less than the price of one! My 5 Ocean Monuments already shipped. Just waiting on 3 Assembly Squares 3 Boost.

I ordered at 6:19 am EST and 3 AS and 3 DS have shipped with tracking numbers. I Patiently waited and they shipped. I hope patience rewards you too !

This is crazy. All Assembly Squares have shipped. No DS yet or the other items.

I had some Death Stars and an Ocean Monument ship. [emoji106] All standard 2-day shipping.

Please put talk about your order status here:

First order on it's way.

In my Cardpool issue - they issued a full refund. I’d suggest if you still have weird GC amounts that you bought from them, check online to see if you can use it. .com will tell you when you try to order whether it’s a merch return card. If it is, get your money back now. April 15 is fast approaching and I’m sure Cardpool would rather stick you with the loss than take it themselves.

Yes it is, go deep fast before it goes !

My wife made advances on me once I told her the profit margins I expected my order. Jokes on her if they get canceled.

FBA: Bionicle Storm Beast - $45 (Buy-in $15) Bionicle Lava Beast - $70 (Buy-in $12) Bionicle Quake Beast - $79 (Buy-in $0 - Free with purchase at TRU)

Well that was an expensive morning.

What the heck is Lebatt's? Is that the weaker version of Labatt's that they sell in the US?

Sad to see them go, but I believe in Business Dawinism. I just hope all these going out of business revenue is going towards employee's paychecks & TRU's creditors and not to line the pockets of the top officer's "Bonus".

Finished 10257 Carousel yesterday. Nice build and displays so wonderfully. Noted one issue though, the frog build was a little awkward because the legs would react accordingly. The frog would "jump" up but when going back down the legs would slide back the it wouldn't function right afterwards. I ended up having to put a little sticky tac under the feet to keep them in place and that did the trick. Otherwise, I really enjoyed this one.

Hey, my local TRU just made the news because one of the employees was arrested after a 4-year investigation, started at the request of TRU, that he had embezzled $100,000+ worth of inventory and sold it on eBay since 2014. https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/Ex-Toys-R-Us-Worker-Accused-of-Stealing-Toy-Selling-Them-Online-477937643.html Never saw this guy.

Ok, incoming bad jokes: Is that $30 million at RRP or did they add the "above retail TRU tax"? I heard 50% of the $30 million owed is coming from Jyn Erso buildables. The amount owed was much less before but too many re-sellers returned those Bricktober mini-modulars. The amount owed would have been less but TRU misplaced a bunch of polybags inside Megablox tubes. TRU said they will be fine to pay because they already started selling 2019 sets ahead of launch.

i took the same route. got fed up with trying to redeem them.

I went from looking forward to a email from Target, to dreading one from them.

My DS just confirmed shipped!

It happened here with TRU last year, they effed up in the same way by repricing some items super expensive (grand hotel 500 euros) and others dirt cheap (DS 180 euros). You need to order with express shipping and hope they have a quiet day in the warehouse so they can OK and pack it with same day pick up. Also, avoid ordering multiples in the same order to avoid getting flagged or the whole order getting cancelled if no stock. No fluffing around with coupon codes or whatever and make sure to finalise the order before letting the cat out of the bag! Some say that paying with Paypal is also smart to avoid CC being flagged for high value/repeated purchases. It actually took them a day to fix the web prices but most of the good stuff had already sold out by then. I pity any fool who ordered a Grand Hotel, though.

Simple answer...because more than any other toy companies, those two needed TRU to be their "showroom." I wouldn't be surprised if these companies also help resurrect TRU in some fashion.

I did get a confirmation email. So I guess it went through. Great deal!

Around the 2:58 mark, there are builds of the classic bikes if anyone wants to take a whack at them.

OK. I spoke to eBay CS. They thankfully waived the fees. One time deal...at least now I don't make a loss on 76105. Thx WIB

We can make it a huge warehouse-style layout and call it "The Incredible Circuit-Media-Toy Radio Shack R' Us Play City Universe"

Found some scraps at KMart this weekend with 50% off clearance toys and other nonsense. 3 more stores in my region are in the last weeks of their closing and had nothing I was interested in.

Where we go for deals: Are you talking about this set? This retired about 4-5 years ago and it has been long gone from retail already. Average eBay sales are $35-45 (+shipping) for used/complete. I'm fairly certain I saw this set go up to $100+ new on Amazon a couple of years back and now it's at $76 ($66.99+shipping for lowest non-Prime). Another reason for losing hope on Super Heroes.

I love those microbuilds. I’ve got these, plus all the Bricktober sets. They will combine easily. There are people that have released LDDs of the other modulars since as well.

I graciously give credit where due to the original Ideas project's creators as their build was quite good. However theirs was a display build with a number of open gaps (the spacious wheels for example) not stable towards any real sort of handling or play. Same as many other submissions, it simply was not a readily made design for the general consumer requiring a number of changes. Here LEGO closed up everything streamlining the build very well with the riders leaning forward as opposed to dropped sitting into a seating area. The handlebars are higher up than they should be but that is the fault of the minifigure's proportions. Only complaint would be the price though there are a handful of somewhat large parts not to mention all the printing across the translucent dishes and the "rooster tail" kind of tacked on there but I honestly cannot think of anything better without adding a lot of unnecessary bits to the build. Now as usual with any set featuring a good amount of translucent pieces in the design, I can hardly wait to see these under a black light.

Ahem.
