  7. I'm really surprised that this set didn't last through October 31st. Seeing that it is a Halloween set, I would have thought that lego would have kept it until then.

  8. The Lego Starwars 10143 Death Star II is an iconic Lego set that most of us know. I have been on the lookout for this for quite awhile and whenever i saw one i couldn't get it for a right price or i got sold under my nose again. Yesterday i lost another auction on this set so i decided to start Bricklinking it. I wan't to see how much its gonna cost me to collect all the part. At first i'm going to try to keep it to Dutch stores only and i'm already 2.000+ bricks in. The reason i decided to start this topic is that perhaps you guys like to follow the process, i will keep updating this topic till this set is standing at my desk! (I'm going to try at least ) Tell me if you guys like the idea, if it is worth updating on haha. Currently working on sorting the parts using Brickstore. Collecting Bricklink Carts in seperate files.

  9. Ya I phoned Lego, I changed my address to include a Box # (I recently got a new one) and the girl on the phone said that their system doesn`t liek it because they don`t ship to PO Boxes in Canada. She said the status should change within 24-48 hours (we removed the PO Box from the address). So, no ban for me, not yet at least haha.

  12. Obviously there is more money to be made on holding these sets long-term, but not everyone can afford to have their money tied up that long. Everyone has a different budget for this. The point I was trying to make is that if anolian had access to multiples of this set and couldn't afford to hold them all long-term, he might as well buy the rest and flip them now for $60-80 profit each (according to his calculations). Ed's advice is spot on though for making the most bank. He's been doing this a long time and the man knows his stuff.

  13. Triple VIP points and the Holiday promo set #2 were an awesome combo from LEGO. The Walmart Black Friday 30% specials were pretty good since some sets were already discounted. I scored a decent supply of Uruk-Hai Army and Power Armor Lex for nearly 50% off.

  20. I want want want this: A City set with a zoo theme. Big $100 zoo set Smaller sets could be: Reptile house Monkey house African savanna (another big set) Merry go round Gift shop Zoo train Petting zoo Could even have real small sets for: Hotdog stand Popcorn cart Animal packs until you run out This is a city theme that they could retire sets as they introduce new animals. If they relaunch things every few years like a monkey house have different monkeys and drive the value of the old sets The kids love the animals and try to make their own zoo stuff we just don't have enough

  21. The announcement is that after months of extensive surveillance Lego has finally found every reseller and is preparing to exterminate all at once with one big swoop of the hammer.

  22. STAR WARS and City sets have remakes all the time. That is because LEGO wants to reintroduce these popular sets to a new group of kids on an annual basis. LEGO has worked this way for the past 15 years...at least. If they remake the 10179, so what? It's time, isn't it? The new movies are coming out and the Falcon is in it. It would be foolish not to reproduce the best LEGO set ever made. This has zero bearing on any of the hundreds of other top sets that will never be reproduced.

  25. Yes I am starting to wonder how many of the Spaceman I am going to end up with and if I should start clearing some of them at the $20 each. Currently I plan to continue to accumulate and hold.

  26. Yes, I called and was told limit of 5. I wanted to order 31 to get free shipping. So they were $2.48 each plus $4.95 shipping, $7.35 after $10 VIP. The order number was not the usual nomenclature but similar to the order number when you get your VIP card. 300XXX not YZ123

  28. That's how folks here in US hoarded martian manhunters when big zoo and vampyre hearse were still orderable, but LEGO Shop at Home insisted they they don't have anymore. Not very ethical, but hey, how long should it take them to stick proper status on a web page??

  32. what is interesting about kmart and delorean... is that they forgot to put "hot buy" tag, so if , besides existing points, you have some interesting coupons (like facebook 20 in points on 20 purchase) to use, they will work

  44. I would love to see a 'DUNE' run. Ornithopters, Sandworms, Spice Harvesters, Seitch playsets, awesome minifigs with the completely blue eyes, Baron Harkkonen and his flying suit, Oh man. Such a great series. IMO it would translate well into LEGO, just not sure if it is popular enough with the younger generations to support it.

  45. Retiring soon is just that, "sale" is trying to clear. IMO the first wave will do very very well concerning the batman sets, all the classic vehicles, batmobile, batwing, then only the 2nd batcave, funhouse is probably a one off and catwoman unlikely to get another set till after the movies so 2017 at the earliest. I recently rearranged and put all batmans vehicles in one cabinet, mobile, batwing, bat boat, helicopter, flash version batmobile and the plane from joker steam roller sets and lastly the bat which is mounted on sme 2 x 2 clear round bricks to make it look airborne. It looks the best cabinet by far, I see the vehicles doing very well i have no worries with superheroes investment wise dc or marvel, 6862 is one of the best of the rest display sets IMO.
