Some recent builds. 70612 was one well put together set! Disassembling took considerably longer than usual for that piece count.

I fixed it! I could see in to the foundation a bit and with all that bowing from the middle I had decided at some point I would take it apart in big chunks and check it out. My guess was it would be possible i would see something wedged in there. Non-Lego. I don't know what. A washer. A small screw? Something small -- Just enough to tweak everything out but not keep it from going together. I took the trees off and popped the front locks and cracked it open and this is what I saw https://imgur.com/a/cCu16ar Yeah. I did not do that! At all. So what must have happened and this should be no mystery to anybody who built this kit is that red piece must have popped off while i was sandwhiching all this stuff together and then it slid over and then I pushed it all together. I didn't hear or see anything. The 11th hour of this kit is insane. It basically goes "yeah snap all this crap together" and its kinda funky as i'm sure you can imagine. At this point i have the locks on the back and i'm thinking ok i'm gonna just place this red piece and close this all up and put it back together and push stuff together. I get it in place and start to put it together and for whatever reason this thing has had it with me and sorta explodes! Oye. So i took the roofs off and the rear locks and pillars and crap are falling out. All sorts of pieces were just falling and popping off. It was annoying. But I got the 2 individual houses all pieced together nicely. Put them on their back and sandwiched together and put the front locks on. The trees. Then set it up and the back locks and the little extra pieces that are after that and from what I can tell its all there and decent. The whole thing is much better now. There can be a little bit of gaps going on in spots on the up-side roof. But its quite nice now. If people run in to similar issue may be they find this thread and will find out that something in the base may have flexed and moved. I ran in to lighting kits for this thing online but I'm scared at this point haha. Not sure I want to dig in to it to get lights. We'll see. I may some time in the future.

YMMV at Sam’s Club 41445 - $12.81 75299 - $12.81 66677 - $26.81

Full disclosure.....I haven't been holding on to these for that long...I bought a pretty awesome lot from a local guy a couple of weeks ago...I still paid less than $200 each for the Emerald Nights

Moved an Emerald Night Train for $1150...down to my last one now.....

sold Droid Commander $200 + $25 ship on ebay I took a flyer on these...got two from Target at around $65 ea (I think)...given all the R2s out there I am really surprised these have appreciated...this and Boost are surprises for me..they basically x2 RRP less than a year.

I can certainly see where he is coming from. Season 1 was all about developing characters, finding purpose and forming relationships. Great scenery, lots of action, easy to enjoy. Season 2 has more struggles with the established characters and ends on a brutal cliff hanger. Since its mostly based on the book 'Blood of Elves' the story line also pivots to include the elves struggle as well. And the elves played a very little role in Season 1, so kind of a big switch. I did read some people's complaint was Season 2 focused too much on setting up season 3 and not enough vision for the story at present. I personally enjoyed it from the very beginning of Episode 1. Also, the time spent at the 'Witcher's Keep', Kaer Morhen , without giving away too many spoilers, we get to learn a lot more about the Witcher history. Season 3 is rumored to be mostly based on the more popular of the books, Time of Contempt. Also suppose to reveal more about the 'Wild Hunt'. Sign me up. It sounds like they are fantastic reads, I am looking forward to starting the series. Another possibility was your friend was disappointed not seeing Yennifer nude, unlike in season 1. In which case, I can also understand✌️😉 But saying Season 2 was awful would be slightly over dramatic.

Two PoBB showed up today from Target. Minty fresh. Individual boxes. To add to the Romeoville mystery, says it came from Target.com in Indianapolis. Definitely not the next down over. I’m leaning heavy into the Dropship from LEGO.

I was able to redeem points on another vintage camera coupon at S@H insert mandatory sorry if this was posted before statement here

Fun code for those that may have Walmart+ Use "SHIP15" for $15 off $50+ (3 uses per account). Not sure how targeted it is.

big fig minecraft skeletons for $59 fbm - almost feels wrong lol. shipping first class mainly to closeby states for $4-5 with my optimized settings. buyin was $10. i got about a hundred boxed ready to have a label slapped on a shelf. waiting for steve to catch up before i really start to unload those. alex - nobody wants that one.

Sigh, guess I know what I'm doing after school pickup today...

Thanks for the detailed insight on Season 2, but somehow, I was only able to focus on this one sentence. haha

Great advice above. Best to clearly state exact condition and be as specific as possible. I have free returns so last thing I want is for someone to return an item because it's not clear of the condition they are receiving. Having said that. I've sold well over 1000 lego sets on ebay and never have had the problem you're describing. Maybe I've been lucky. And I also sell sets over $1000 at times. I also communicate via ebay messenger with buyers regularly. This helps establish trust with seller. But if someone is going to try to scam you communicating isn't going to stop them. I have had a few times in the 20 years of selling where a buyer claims the item never got delivered. But tracking shows it did so ebay sides with me.

I ordered some when they came back in stock online Sunday right after the 20% off SC sale ended. They arrived today and these are a new run 549R1 and at least 3686 made so far. Hopefully Walmart gets some in at $24.

aw shucks gee wiz willakers willya look at that? what a poseur report - "avid legos builders". this is how i feel watching this "news" clip borderline plagiarizing "Good Housekeeping" magazine from 2015.

No, but do buy a scale. Then buy a label printer.

Pretty big difference in box size.

Companies not taking smaller profits also has a ripple effect. CEOs taking bigger and bigger pay days has a ripple affect. I read your argument as "we can't have higher wages, because that will hurt the economy." I hate to sound communist, but instead of distributing the profits to the shareholders, how about distributing profits to the employees? Labor is a commodity, but, so are shareholders. It's just about where a company puts value, and where a company puts it's profits. And let's face it - you and I are not the shareholders that are benefitting to the degree where redistributing the profits of a company will have a significant affect on us.

8 came today from illinois. all super minty in 26 x 20 x 6 boxes. my win streak with gift message checked continues

Almost done with this monstrosity. Motorized version for size comparison

Lambo stickered up

actually surprised he is open and even recommends lego investing - most bloggers are opposed. althouh mandr kinda sorta hints that he does it as well

Finally got around to building the Blacksmith Shop I scored for 30% off a few months. I have to say that this was a very enjoyable build and will stay in my collection. The light brick gimmick is actually really cool.

Got out my Lego Christmas Village as well. Added 76388 Hogsmeade Village Visit to the mix since it kind of blends well.

new weirdness with two sets i added to my inventory a long time ago - ideas fossils and speed champ 76899 lambo urus. i am no longer able to edit my listing under the manage inventory page. if i try to edit the listing i get taken to the gate page saying not approved for this listing not accepting applications, however it is already listed as fbm so i went ahead and added 2 to my inventory quantity column and sure enough i can list it and i show up on the seller page. if i then go and try and add the listing to my store inventory from the amazon page SELL ON AMAZON button , it shows me as gated on the set even though its already in my inventory and i can list it. so i'm only able to adjust price and quantity but not things like handling time or order quantity limit. same thing for gingerbread house. not a big deal but i had it under some whacky default shipping setting that i had to go and tweak for the gated sets only. kind of like the gate partially came down on me.

Went to two stores, price adjustment was turned down, item shows price 0 now, seems window is closed Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
