Sweet. Looks like I'll be picking up Eldorado Fortress during that window.

yes! The dreaded..."DAd it says I need to use your phone" Seriously the concept of needing a smart phone to make a TOY work is the brainchild of engineers and accountants that don;t have kids. ASININE!

I kind of like "Papa Palpatine" sporting that Death Star sweater. On another note, inspired by eliminator's question mark I decided to browse down the oddball history of LEGO with their Advent Calendars. The company had released an advent calendar far back as 1992 into 1993 then skipped a few years (or that data is missing) until 1998 where they began to release at least one annually. It took until 2005 for the first proper City themed one to appear (7324) and continue each year since. 2011 was the first year of the Star Wars Advent Calendar (7958) as eliminator stated in his post. The following year marked the first Friends Advent Calendar (3316) while 2019 for the first Harry Potter one (75964).

Love the crane but hate control+. I want real sticks to run it. For nearly $700 they could include a remote.

Congrats! It's one of the best feelings in the world. On a semi-related note, an update on my career change from corporate finance (20+ years) to becoming a real estate agent. I signed on with Keller Williams Advisors on 4/28, ratified my first buyer contract on 5/26, and closed on 6/16. Woohoo!! I'm super happy to get the first transaction under my belt.

I knew something was missing from this box!
