Over the weekend, I stumbled onto a free Lego craigslist ad that was listed five hours ago in my area. I figured I was too late but sent a nice email anyway with my number. Got a text 15 mins later saying it was mine. It was actually two bags of Lego and I felt so lucky to have been able to snag it. I just ordered the instruction manuals for the 42100 Liebherr for $10 on bricklink. Woohoo!

The new NASA Webb Space Telescope is providing some amazing images.

I'm starting to rate the value of everything by what I call "The B-itch Factor". Would any b-itch about LEGO if this sold out and they didn't get the chance to grab it in time? Hell no.

I probably could have Googled instead of breaking seals, but hopefully this answers someone else's question of internal packaging:

it said 2 days so it makes me think they are waiting until after prime day. mines not there yet.

Non-LEGO...but....can anyone vouch for Duck brand packing tape? Good? No good? Pretty decent price.....https://www.amazon.com/Duck-Clear-Packing-Refill-441962/dp/B000GR5XCW/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000GR5XCW&pd_rd_w=bSdVt&content-id=amzn1.sym.73df3ac5-3adb-4792-9fe0-f260b30d12c7&pf_rd_p=73df3ac5-3adb-4792-9fe0-f260b30d12c7&pf_rd_r=8DPP6NBXK38FQG8H1GNA&pd_rd_wg=ti9yG&pd_rd_r=c6bf3da5-be1a-4586-b96f-71110cc95c9d&ref_=dhvelp&th=1

I still love Superman 1 & 2, they can't be beat.

Speaking of which. I just watched Superman with my kids last weekend and it held up pretty well until he flew around the earth to reverse the rotation to turn back time to save Lois. My 14yo teenage daughter gave the biggest eye roll.

I like it. I paid just over $15 last week for this exact item

Geralt from the Witcher series (video games + Netflix)

This is all I have ever used! Definitely not the best certainly not the worst and it’s usually cheap enough! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The HP 260 is good, I don't know about this stuff.

I personally don't like the heavy duty tape, it weighs too much and is harder to manage on packages.

When you go out to eat but she is on a diet

I ordered three of the Scout Helmets from Kohls the last time that they were on sale. I was pleasantly surprised when they arrived well protected in a double-walled box. Maybe it will happen again. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another sale: Duplo Town Space Shuttle Mission 10944 -$11.99 at Target (put in cart to see price.) https://www.target.com/p/lego-duplo-town-space-shuttle-mission-10944/-/A-81911579

Except everything i get from Kohls arrives trashed.

I’m surprised nobody shared this post from SD: I love this item I found on Kohl's..I just had to share it! https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-5015441/product.jsp This set will be $60 in 3 weeks so almost half off.

What? I had all those sets hidden in the dressers waiting for deep markdowns.

https://jaysbrickblog.com/news/lego-registers-brick-to-the-future-trademark-more-back-to-the-future-sets-coming/ Seems like the popularity of the Delorean set has confirmed to the LEGO bigwigs that it's a theme worth expanding. Could just mean a new kid's LEGO show "Brick to the Future" seems more in line w/ a story line. That said, new sets have a way from originating from LEGO show scene. I would LOVE a set of the Steam engine (from BttF Part 3) that converts to a futuristic flying train, or a proper modular of the clock building that gets hit by lightening

At least get some Brickeadz out there. I've been hoping for a full lineup since the Mario theme was announced.

This seems to me the biggest winner of the Target sale https://www.target.com/p/lego-ninjago-legacy-ultra-sonic-raider-71739-building-kit/-/A-81911644 40% off the Ninjago Legacy Raider. Last Q4, they were sold out and fetching a big premium.

Yes, those duels were not what we once thought they were. Years ago, we watched the Star Wars movies in order with my son (from the prequels forward), and I remember during the ep4 duel, my son proclaiming/asking "What's wrong with them??" It wasn't quite as shocking as when he was horrified after watching the Star Trek TV shows, and then watching one of the Star Trek movies and seeing them aged "What happened to Captain Kirk??"

Today I crossed off something on my lifetime Valentine's Day bingo card.

My son is as the “Kid Captain” at the Orlando minor league hockey team’s game tonight.

Only Prime Day Deal I have seen so far. AT-ST Raider is 50% off and a limit of 3. Amazon.com: LEGO Star Wars at-ST Raider 75254 Building Kit (540 Pieces) : Toys & Games

Apart from the big F-ing plastic pouch/label they stick directly on the box to hold the pickup receipt. One of those that melts into a goo if you put a heatgun on it, instead of just releasing the glue.

Unfortunately my Target is now closed. This happened last night just before closing: Police say evidence obtained at this point in the investigation has shown that the fire was intentionally set in the linen section near the center of the store. The store was quickly evacuated and no injuries were reported. Preliminary damage estimates range between $3-$4 million in merchandise damage. Estimated damages to the structure are not readily available at this time. Supposedly this fire was the result of some new tik tok challenge, and the store is closed for at least 3-4 weeks. I know post it in the complaint thread.
