Nothing will pull me away. If the site goes down I will fix it after the movie. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker

As promised, I will post how I built the digital rendition of the San Diego Comic-Con Classic-TV Batmobile. First off is the part list which was taken straight from the generated HTML Building Guide LDD generates. I tried to keep the amount of bricks minimal as possible to make it easy to put together while still taking into consideration Lego

This 'controversy' reminds me of how all the schools were flipping out about Bart Simpson "Don't have a cow, man" t-shirts when I was a kid. If you had Simpson's anything in school they'd send you home to change or confiscate it.

Glad you guys like it. Well this may be a while but I think I have a pretty good idea what I want to tackle next....

7346 - Seaside House; all three models over the last few days when I had a chance to. Let me start off with just how much I love the color of medium blue. ....I love it. Now like every other Creator set, I built the main model or as the manual states the

I loved the 1st one. it Had everything a guy movie should (like the Expendables movies). Sharks, guns, bikinis, hot chicks, chainsaws, flying animals, flying sharks, Tara Reid looking hot despite looking used, Tornadoes, helicopters, no plot, terrible acting, hot chicks, senseless violence, etc... All that was missing was a flying 10179 Kinda like drinking Beast Ice during college. So bad yet so good.

Very nice reduction. Simpson house 159

Just to revisit.... first number is the last 12 months gain according to US Brickpicker...

Between the deal at Hooters and now this talk about cheesecake, I could leave some rather inappropriate comments here. :whistle:

She likely told him he needed an undamaged set and took the dented one out to her car.

I'm waiting for the director's uncut version. The nudity in the last one was impeccable.

Maybe there's a Sharknado in Denmark that shut down the LEGO site...

At a certain point, you have to enjoy when they know how ridiculously stupid it is.

The other guy had 300 sets valued at $50k which averages out to $167 a pop. They weren't stealing speedorz and battle packs. I hope it wasn't the Quizno's dumpster because we all know someone would have found them before she could get back to them..

skiff-a-dee-doo-dah skiffity-yaay. black friday in july target skiff's delivered today.

I see your skiffs, and I raise. To 238.

If they cancel those, make sure they give you 10% - 20% off your next exclusive. They'll do that for cancellations. Just use some discount gift cards too.

Yup... And some smallville for $15

If you are selling this on eBay I would suggest reading over ebays policy as they are cut and dry about this. This puts the seller at risk for a guaranteed loss. What's to say you list it as new, ship it to the buyer, they remove the minifugures, open a "item not as described" case since the set was opened. What recourse does the seller have? How can you prove that set was all there before you sent it? The only thing you have is your word and we all know how eBay is with cases. The buyers are priority so don't get caught with this, I learned my mistake the hard way. I don't want anyone else having that problem or feeding misinformation to the new people of the forum.

Oh and thanks again peenutz!

Thanks for the heads up. Just bought one of the two that were left, and kindly left the last one for the next person to read this thread.

We should all stock up on Simpsons Houses and minifigs, then collectively drum up outrage across the internet to increase chances of it retiring prematurely. Who's with me!

awesome thanks!!

It is movies like this, that can convince people to buy this product as you make the set look as 'cool' as it is intended to be. Good job, great work!

To justify to my wife why I need to buy these at 20% off whilst we're visiting family interstate. I've not seen this set near home either. Please help

Not sure if this of interest to any overseas people but a shop here in Australia still has some of these for sale at Australian RRP: http://www.mrtoys.com.au/?LEGO-Toys/LEGO-Miscellaneous/LEGO-NASA-Mars-Curiosity-Rover-21104-CUSSOO;Item;21409 Price might work out cheaper than Ebay for some...

So... is LEGO Shop at Home back up and running again?

Shoot, I have been waiting to see that documentary for a few years now but then let myself get sidetracked and forgot all about it. Thanks for the reminder! Now I recall there was supposed to be a film on various indie game developers. I don't know if that was completed yet or even the name. Ugh, I'm so absent minded. :wacko:

TOK, is it you that's into pinball? I'm not sure how I missed this, but I ran across it on Amazon Prime tonight. Great stuff! Special When Lit - Pinball Documentary I really really like "King of Kong" too.

Wings and cheesecake, kinda a balancing effect on the toilet.

Dont worry the site may be down but the employees are still hard at work processing and shipping your orders.

It's not retired until it's 1/2 off.

We're gonna need a bigger shark.

emma begs to differ http://nypost.com/2014/03/06/woman-plays-fortune-cookie-lottery-numbers-wins-2m/

Do the fortunes in their cookies ever come true?

Thats why you need to just go across and stand on the border and sell sets like some people we know.

..... Just a stranger on a bus..... ;)

And 1 of those gone is extra for me :-| I don't know. It's not widely known as a modular Or...Belgian investors are so clever they know it will fail in secondary market Or... every Belgian investor is on holiday... Or... the price can still be lower? :-| No clue at all why they still sit there

Based on some of the other replies, perhaps the word "scammed" in her reply above should be replaced by the word "caught"?

So now I gotta turn myself into the weirdo with a digital scale weighing lego sets in the aisles of stores.... I'll mutter to myself, missing the minifigs, missing the minifigs, ya never know, ya never know. AFOL, EOL, follow the codes! The codes knows...

Now you know why the store rarely has DSs and SSDs in stock.. :P

Deluxe Blue Brick Box - 5508, just flipped in less than 2 weeks. Purchased for $50, sold for $130.

My daughter and I do this every time we're at Legoland. The MC's (model citizens) are great. Some of them have only one or two, but others have very elaborate set ups. I've never seen them refuse a trade with a kid. I always have a ton of crappy minifigs from my bulk lots that I have with us. She trades them for whatever she thinks looks cool. Lately, there have been a lot of Simpsons minifigs, but I've also seen other CMFs for trading as well. Other times, it's figures that have been customized. My daughter brought home a pretty cool looking king figure the other day. I'd say make sure you have a good handful of figures there. Of course, you can always embrace the trading aspect, and find a couple of figures to trade for, and then use those to trade again throughout the day. It's a fun little activity. There are also three or four trading stations around the park. There's one by the dino coaster, another at the mini golf course, and there's sometimes someone standing in front of the Big Store. Those locations usually have a minfig case with figures inside that you can trade for. I think those stations allow for 2 or 3 trades at one time. Check your map, because the stations are listed on there.

It takes a lot of work to mark 100 sets with "Retiring Soon" on it!

dear 4204 the mine, why can't you just retire already! darn you. without regards. ja is online c.c. 10214 Tower Bridge

Unless Lego releases a set with a $3,000 MSRP. Prepare yourselves for the Unikitty Megamodel!

I have had someone tell me that X website or seller has this item for way cheaper than you do My response........Thanks for the heads up! Don't bother trying to buy it because I already did. Next time I suggest you buy it instead of wasting time emailing me.

I'm going to go against the grain a little here in terms of POTC. If you find POTC discounted then there is money to be made. The Whitecap Bay set for example was a considered a fair disaster yet it has been making it's way back up in price, rising 27.45% in the past 6 months. In fact the past 6 months: 4181 Isla De Muerta +22.36% (46.72% overall increase) 4182 Cannibal Escape +25.33% (-12.57% overall decrease) 4183 The Mill +4.77% (-18.1% overall decrease) 4191 Captains Cabin +2.15% (23.1% overall increase) 4192 Fountain of Youth +24.29% (46.67% overall increase) 4193 London Escape +13.55% (-14.32% overall decrease) 4194 Whitecap Bay +27.45% (-13.35% overall decrease) There DEFINITELY is money to be made in POTC outside of the ships.
