Just finished the Tumbler. I built the Batpod a month or so ago (to prepare for the Tumbler) Very satisfying build; pictures just do not do these sets justice...the Tumbler is MASSIVE and those rear wheels (bigger than the fronts and four of them). I alread have the Batpod under glass and until I find a suitable covered display, I wrapped the Tumbler in surran wrap...lame (I know), but it's a dust magnet like no other.

Pssst ... Free shipping on all orders at shop.LEGO.com, and some 75% off sets are still available for those who haven't hit their ordering limits yet. 75526 Elite TIE Fighter Pilot Buildable is C2C but still in stock as of 3:30pm EST

First official image of the new Architecture Trafalgar Square set (21045)

Thanks for that. I just spent a whopping $4.93 (after tax). And the Easter Egg polybag was included!

We will find out tomorrow... https://www.starwarscelebration.com/

I have no idea what this place is. I only know Big Ben and Parliament from the Griswold's.

Why the heck should it be different than other architecture sets ?

Here's my MOC on LOTR Helm's Deep. Also posted it on Eurobricks: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/169563-moc-lotr-helms-deep/

Picked up a bunch of the plushes that were 90% off ($2.49). Will be great for gifts and toy drives. Thanks!

I'm in for at least 2 castles; will pull the trigger this weekend. I'm predicting a last minute surge before the free-shipping promo is done.

I once overheard some tourists say it's the place with Nelson Mandela's column and the Louvre art gallery overlooking it.

I feel pretty well versed in culture and interesting landmarks, but yeah...same. The set looks good, but I still think Lego should think about expanding this theme to include ancient ruins like the Machu Pichu MOC and other ancient buildings/structures.

Another top notch Architecture set.

I feel like these are the final words included in the epitaph on the graves of many an AFOL.

PM’d Walmart at Target and with Redcard got the 20th Anniversary Snowspeeder for $30. Also grabbed the polybag for $4. OfferUp seller at a used Voltron for $100. Couldn’t pass up the chance to have a second set so I can display both the Lions and Voltron. Wife will kill me but I don’t care.

Wasted too much time scrolling through Facebook and for some reason, it doesn't show up for me browsing their page. Saw a direct link elsewhere: https://www.facebook.com/6665038402/posts/10156436250918403?sfns=mo This must be the 2nd time ever that I've seen a LEGO coupon code.

A very happy reunion!

One sealed box and one full set of Disney Series 2 CMFs. Thank you MinifiguresPlus!

Went to LEGO store last weekend to pick up some sets for upcoming birthdays and take advantage of double pts. Found a harry potter diagon alley 40289 sitting on the 20% off table with a slight ding in the box. As I was checking out I asked if they had anymore. Yep, one more, with a good box. Sold both of them to me for $16 / ea. I wasn't even aware they were selling these.

Just finished online chatting with lego CS. I was able to get my 800expired pts added back to my account. Total noob mistake, wont be happening again. Thank you for this tid bit. I was attempting to save up for the GBHQ before it retired. needless to say i failed miserably.

My guess is that it's easier to build when you have a contrast in color.

Moc I'm working on with the new hall of armor set(s). In progress, still not happy with the angles and getting the arc right but only on day 1. Sent from my SM-G960U using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

No qualms with acquiring custom made minifigures and/or elements from sellers upfront stating such are in fact custom made and not trying to pass them off as official product (Brick Builders Pro and Firestar Toys come to mind). Now in the case with off brands guilty in outright copying what LEGO does but subpar quality like Lele, Bela, Decool, Enlighten, Sluban, and so on, the site's stance is quite the opposite. I suppose the short answer would be if the item is made "by the fans for the fans" then it is alright. There are plenty of already established topics to post in but nothing making any mandatory. They are simply there as easy to find, post, and discuss various "catch all" subjects. You can always start up a new thread to show off your latest works.

Makes sense, it’d be hundreds to put that many legit urukhai down, so that helps explain it. I’ve presently dismantled mine in a cleaning effort. I had the original set on display for years and it took 6 hours of sunlight from a certain angle for about 3 years. Added in a second set plus parts for moccing (word?)... but as you can imagine from the UV damage the original took, there were loads of colour variations. I painstakingly dismantled and digitally mapped my build in reverse. Did the peroxide trick over the summer/fall but have yet to polish off my custom instructions and reassemble. If you find the Member Moc thread, I posted pics of it in there a couple years back. happy to send the ldd too if you like.

Thanks! I just brick-built it and made changes as I progress. So unfortunately no digital files. I'd love to see your creation though! Here's a overhead view and a close-up of the inner courtyard: The layout is based on a cross section art work of Helm's Deep made by a WETA artist. I put an armory in the basement below the inner courtyard (accessible through entrance next to stairs in the inner courtyard), a stable in the lower entrance, and a private dining area on the second floor of the great hall. See here for more detail: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/169563-moc-lotr-helms-deep/ Since I got in the game late, 9471 is worth stupid money now so I only got one. Other than the original figures from 9471 and 9474, the rest are custom figures from eBay (not sure if this is hugely frowned upon in these boards or not......).

Agreed, I just would have liked to see a bit more prominent fixture that would be closer to the original sourced material given the time and effort put into this! Apologies calmdahn, but are you honestly saying this looks like the above photos I posted above? I mean, I feel like it's almost so obvious that you are pulling a prank on me? Are we in bannana land here?

Even the official Lego set 76060 had somewhat a framed out window to signify the Sanctum.

This should be the Sanctum Sanctorum that LEGO should release... and not that joke.. ( instagram: yellowbox777 )
