Here we go.

I had to do a double-take, that looks like a severed head in an aquarium...

This time of year that would be: Sales Rank 1000 - 95/day Sales Rank 5000 - 39/day Sales Rank 20,000 - 12/day Sales Rank 50,000 - 4/day

Damn, you have green screen CG

All done

Box.

This is one of my favorites at Inner Harbor in Baltimore.

Tokyo & Dubai Skylines will be released on January 1, 2020. I'm pleased to share the first in-depth review of the Dubai set on my Brick Architect website. It's a better set than I had expected, mostly due to the absolutely fantastic rendition of the curvaceous sail-shaped Burj Al Arab, in the High-Tech Architectural style. ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡ: #21052 Dubai Skyline As you will see, the other three buildings in the model aren't quite as good, but the overall effect is effective. I hope you enjoy the review, and please let me know if you have any questions I can answer! LINK: https://brickarchitect.com/2019/review-21052-lego-dubai-skyline/ Sincerely, ---tom

My local store had so many minis left over that they gave me one today as an extra gift....very nice of them.

It looks like an expensive 3 in 1 set.

The process I have used to get around the errors was to go to my lego.com profile page (https://identity.lego.com/en-US/profile) in a separate tab and forcibly logout. then go back to SAH in the other tab, reload the page so it knows i'm logged out, and add the stuff to the cart without being logged in. Then checkout as normal and log back in to complete the transaction. Rinse and repeat if doing multiple orders.

bogus bricks did steal, but they gave the people what they wanted when they jacked this from an afol years back. I agree with @crayxlp where it looks better than the corner garage, but so does your exgirlfriend in the morning. The bookstore facade is rather nice, but its so tiny that it gives the feel of a creator 3-1. They could have expanded on the 'Birch Book' store and left out the very uncommon color small flat. just my 2 cents.

Watched an item on eBay for months entitled "3 Star Wars Legos Sets With Mixed Pieces (Some Pieces May Be Missing) ". Listing contained 75059 Sandcrawler, 75060 Slave I, and 75095 Tie Fighter. Listing started at close to $500 and slowly dropped. Listing dropped for over two months and eventually was sitting there at $185+$35 shipping. eBay sent out that "we screwed up sending you that better coupon, so here's one not as good" for 10% off, so I figured I would finally message the seller. Seller says she knew nothing about Lego or Star Wars. I explained to her what a minifigure was and if she could pull them all out of the box and take a picture of them. Turns out, every figure was there, plus a few extra. So I asked her to change the price from $185+$35 shipping, to $220 with free shipping so I could maximize the coupon. I ended up paying $213.20 after tax, plus $22 in eBay bucks back. I broke down and inventoried everything over the last couple days, and all 3 UCS sets were complete. It also included a complete (less minifigures) Ecto 1 and a Snowspeeder Microfighter.

All in on City Police Stations.

Worth the trip to Lego store. Looks of amazement from kids.

To clarify: I also wanted a single big open building like the bank or Emporium. I was just trying to find positives in what was presented.

I concur. Always love a good "high ground" reference.

Went by my Lego store this morning. They has a mountain of these with more in the back. They expect them to last longer than the tree. They did have the big gingerbread in stock but they were going fast, 4 sold while I was there. Mini bat still there too, they will give both that and the ginger with 1989 batmobile.

Lego: I’m not mad I’m disappointed. I was hoping for an Emporium-type full bookstore with a coffee shop, escalator, etc. my critique of Emporium is that it is bare besides the escalators, those are really the main attraction. Thought they could fix that problem with this one. Bunch of books, book signing table. I hate the half-ones like PS. The double walls decrease an already small amount of space. Should have fully committed to the bookstore. Unlike Diner, AS and CG, where I was an early buyer, this will be a wait for sale type thing, which I think will be the case for many

What I dislike is the ever increasing price of these sets. that is no more than a 150 set, just like before.

now you can check store inventory with 2 options in stock and out of stock in any LEGO stores just type city name

Thank you for this! Found a Ninjago docks in stock locally at 20% off. Another $50 off brought it down to $165 which is 41% off. Not bad at all. Should be a fun build.

People who are rich and lazy. Just the person I like.

The rear looks like it could serve as an expansion to the upcoming Ideas Sesame Street set.

The little Dropship is the winner here. At least 2 x retail already.

I should have guessed. I don't understand what happens at that facility and why they can't fix it. I'm surprised they don't have cameras recording every shipment receiving yet.

They usually find it eventually. I've had this happen In November/December and then in February or March I start seeing stuff sell that they had previously lost from a shipment. The Baltimore BWI warehouse has always been the worst and i'm so happy they don't ask me to send much there anymore. If you check your box contents, you'll sometimes find that everything they lost was in one or two specific boxes.

That's why I always call the store beforehand...

I received the first of my two ninjago city orders. The set was mailed inside its carton, which was sealed and shipped inside a large LEGO box. Much like how the Falcon sets have been shipped. Thankfully, it didn't crush the GWP tree. Hoping the same will be true for my next shipment of Ninjago city.

Filoni wrote and directed this one. There were lots of good easter eggs in this one. Ming-Na Wen was awesome, of course. In great homage to the classic westerns, you have our cowboy talking to the locals, to secure passage across their lands. In 60 seconds time, Filoni gave us some true depth to the Tuskin Raiders that we've never had before. A language, a means to communicate, desires, and motivation. That is, IMHO, a great way to build lore without being heavy-handed about it.

Used mine, and they were spectacular! They'll do a secondary charge back on sales tax later. Check your statement. It's dumb, don't ask me what they're doing.

I like it.

I'm pretty ambivalent toward this, then I saw the back and thought "eww gross".

Looks like Shakespeare's collar if you ask me ...

Those red "fork" pieces on the trailer are older pieces i believe, i remember a variation of them from my childhood. They were always breaking, guess that's why they don't use them anymore...

Based on my current strategy I would have zero as well, despite loving the set. But alas, I have a few collecting dust. I stick with, if it can't fit in a 24x16x4 box, it's not a worthy investment.

Funny how the demand works sometimes. From a collector standpoint, I absolutley adore the petshop for various reasons. However as an invester I have abosolutely zero. I do like the birch trees, but that could because I just love birch trees in general.

It's the new ban

$199 Cad ?

Filler? Just load up! And Double VIP points too!

Just placed an order for 60 (hopefully sealed box) of Lego Move 2 minifigs, as they are 60% off with double VIP points.

Saved me some $, thanks LEGO!

I plan to buy the Batmobile. Fortunately, I have a local store that has stock. Getting both gingerbread and batmobile promo is gold. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum

One thing I never learned... listen to your kids! Many sets I thought were stinkers came out golden, of which mostly I did not have...

It would be funny though. January 2020:

I'm trying to think what an average "bookstore" looks like. The outside could be anything since it's what's on the inside that really makes it a bookstore. There are a bunch of MOCs (quick Google Image search for "Lego Bookstore"). Many have brick-spelt "Books" on the front. I like the one below...

From a reseller perspective I agree. But from the LEGO fan in me, I’m always excited to hear about the next modular. The buildings are unique, and they are themed well. The speculation is fun, and even if the rumors are correct, what I imagine is never as cool as what they come up with. With the endless redos of police, fire and Star Wars, the yearly modular is always nice for it’s ability to stand on its own.

Got mine today and it came with a free gift.
