I wouldn't be very worried if I were you. If it is the set for early release on the 18th then there will be plenty to be had. I highly doubt Lego would allow it to,sell out before it's actual release date to non VIP members on the 1st. On a side note the amount of paranoia and craziness and worrying that has been going on lately is ridiculous. Almost every set that is ever released, with the exception of a few,(zombies, LE technic crawler) being the only ones I can name off the top of my head, will be available to purchase without fear of missing out on it. I used to love reading and posting on these forums but lately people, not singling anyone out here, but people in General have just become almost obsessed it seems with stuff like I didn't get an order confirmation, is something wrong, should I call Lego? Should I order again? Anyone else have this problem? Your order ship yet? Am I banned? When is this set that isn't even released gonna retire and how much is it gonna be worth. I need to know now now now! It's ridiculous. Mods feel free to move or remove this post to an appropriate forum topic. Or delete it if it is too harshly worded.

Rob D. (agaethon29) built what most of us looked like early in the morning on August 1st.

Omg.. how cool is that! Hopefully I walk in a toystore in a remote town far from here one day, and its inventory looks like this:

Here are your two mystery minifigures: Onacanda Farr Juno Eclipse

People would notice that one I am pretty sure, however I scored an MSRP Green Grocer last year while being in a small countryside town.

I do not see the upside of accumulating VIP points. I use the $ off the next time I order. If you are banned, them points go poofed.

I'm in the 20+ catagory for the LEGO movie with a 6 and an 8 year old. I've got to be in the 75-100 range with Frozen and probably 500+ with "Let It Go" song alone. I knew it was bad when I plugged my phone into the car stereo on my way to work and didn't change the song until "Let It Go" finished playing. My daughter has me trained well.

I've got a seven year old and a four year old, so I've seen it at least ten times. Maybe not the whole way through each time, but enough so that I have about 2/3 of the movie memorized. Don't even get me started on the horror that is Frozen... All I'll say about that is I had a batchelorette party go out on my boat and "Let It Go" was the first song that played when they plugged a phone into the PA, I did a very good rendition at the top of my lungs. And then hung my head in shame.

I haven't received a single Exo Suit so far... not even 1 out of 3 different orders placed August 1st 11:00 Dutch time. I am disappointed. I have had a total of 9201 VIP points according to them, that's almost

Kurt...And Nirvanas' place in rock history was secure well before his passing.

Well if anybody thinks that the Tumbler will retire in a year, well load up on them, but I am willing to bet it will be out until at least the end of 2016, now if you have plenty of money to buy lots of Tumblers well buy them, but I would be getting TB,PS,HH R2-D2,Simpson houses and a few other Exclusives for 2015, and don't forget the Batman Ayslum. or if you think you can flip these for Christmas and make money well do it. but guys on tight budgets I would not be loading up on Tumblers until next year.

I guess that is my main point. The 10188, Ewok Village and Sandcrawler are all great sets, but they are "play" sets and not UCS IMO. The box art of a "play" set should show off its play features...after all, it was designed for kids. I always thought UCS were adult oriented display sets and should be treated as such. I really think LEGO has missed out on a wonderful marketing opportunity the past 10-12 years and make the UCS the "premium" theme of LEGO. They could have made many different types of UCS sets...boats, plains, trains, busts of characters, etc... Even the new Maersk Triple E and Tumbler would qualify. Just a couple of thoughts...

if the order shipped and haven't got emails, you aren't gonna get any.

GE... LOL

Thanks TOK appreciate you taking the time to review the files I sent and fix up my mistakes. The colours can be a bit confusing across apps and Bricklink and it takes a seasoned pro to find those. Hope this helps some folks.

Not just the mods. The paranoia and severe lack of patience recently has been bewildering.

I can't speak for the other mods, but I can appreciate a bit of sanity injected into the forum every so often. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker

The Lonely Mountain set is due to be launched October 15th.

You would think at $50/hr you could afford a phone that doesn't double post all the time.

If that's not your style so be it, keep your criticism of other members to yourself.

For me, I wanted to add some to my inventory for 2 reasons. One, diversification, as I don't have anything like it yet. Two, the history of Mars Rover showed the the Exo Suit had potential to quickly double the investment. I agree that checking on the brick & mortar store daily for inventory wouldn't be worth it at this investment/return level. But ordering 10+ online from Target with a few clicks? Sure, why not. Aside, please don't judge others who choose to spend their time buying LEGO instead of getting a sun tan. To each his own.

I put in 4 orders of 2 Exo suits 5 minutes apart all using the same CC and shipping address, all arrived today, no ban hammer.

The misses doesn't appreciate my updated collection so I thought I would share it with those who might.

I received both the suit and the girls yesterday morning. (Now I feel like Barney Stinson ) FYI I ordered as soon as I could on August 1.

Well, why did Lego called it VIP? I am sure grandma has no idea what VIP is.

Yes, ordered at about 8:30am while still in stock

Target Australia has extended the Toy Sale to the 10th August 2014. So another 5 days with the 20% off lego.

Dynamite. . Sorry, I'm no help.

Don't tell me that. I'm literally going to morrow to add my sister to my plan. Fantastic. I wish everything in life was as simple as lego investing and lifting weights.

Superman vs lex 6862

Buy a new Lego head and throw the other away. Problem solved.

How could I have missed it... Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker

I think I have read all 46 pages of this thread over time, I know get a life, but don't recall seeing this mentioned before go to 0:40 if you can't wait for it

Is this where I show up with wine coolers and then I get busted by the cops and I try convincing them that I drove 2+ hours just to talk with the underage girl I've been talking to online? Hahahahaha!!!!! "Hello, I'm Chris Hansen with Dateline NBC............"

Bought two Superman Power Lex sets and one Spidey Cycle chase.

Needle nose pliers

If I made $2 million per year, I would still do this. It's fun.

You might want to state your own views and points on people hoarding sets or using way too drastic methods on getting them. However what is your point on saying you earn more than $50/hr? Are you trying to imply something else? Are you tryimg to state that you are richer than everyone else here? We are all here in this forum to discuss about Lego, be it investing or a personal hobby. But on how much a fellow BPer's earn is not the point.

Hmmm, you are on page 42 of a thread about a set that "won't make anyone rich" and are calling for people to stop spending their time "rotating in and out of the lego store"... These affirmations must come after reading a lot of posts from other users... Quite conflicting ideas I get about them poor souls.

Not sure if I missed this before. The 6862 Superman Power Armor Lex set is now tagged as "Retiring Soon". Yay Sent from an iPhone using the Brickpicker app

Let's assume that at 3am EST it goes live and is sold out by morning. Then, calling Lego, all gone. Fun.

41999 LE Crawler: 21 bags, 4 tires, 4 instruction booklets, 1 sticker sheet. 5 #1 bags 7 #2 bags 9 unnumbered power functions bags 4 loose tires

It does all connect together. I was at the Lego Store recently, and they had the sets out. The back of the box shows the sets being connected.

10672 - Batman: Defend the Batcave:#1. 1 large bag (Inside: 1 small bag + 1 box for Batman's cape)#2. 1 large bag#3. 1 large bag (Inside: 1 box for Robin's cape)1 16x16 brick plate + 2 8x8 brick plates + 1 4x16x12 wall panel1 instruction bookletTOTAL = 3 numbered bags

I heard there is a gold benny in some boxes like the c3po, over on brickset they said (with packaging) it weighs about 30 grams.

You're certainly not kidding about the Retail pricing of Lego here vs the US. Us Aussies get absolutely slaughtered at the register. There's still a few good deals to be had from time to time though.

Batman is so awesome he deserves his own section Seriously, before LEGO introduced the SuperHeroes line, the original Batman sets were under their own Batman line / theme

I just want a big crane and wrecking ball, so I can complete my Miley Cyrus MOC.

Actually, it's funny. I received both missing light gray radar dishes on Saturday and installed them. While doing that, I took a chance and placed both of those studs under the lights. perfect timing for your post. THANKS for the confirmation.
