You might not hear back from her (after all, you do have have her medication).

Dearest Lego Denmark Employee: I hope this post found you well. We just want to let you know that all the purchases revolving around the Town Hall in the last week do not reflect the true demand for this set. The set still sucks, so please retire it. Yours Truly, MLNCS A Lego fan first (and a Lego investor second)

Don't do auctions. Do fixed price listings with immediate payment required. Problem solved forever. You're welcome.

Doesn't it feel good to have reached your target for a set? You get to watch all those panic posts, and just be like "Yeah, already got me some of that."

Noticed the mechanical right hand. I am just glad the tradition of body mutilation will be carried on to movie VII

People need to get their priorities straight! Buying LEGO products does serve but one use: Reselling them later! Also they should stop buying other stuff just because they might enjoy it and be happy... I mean what nonsense is that? Spending money on things?! You should keep that money and hoard it. And one day when you're 90 years old sitting in that dark empty space you call home you'll at least have a lot of money to keep you company and boy all those happy memories you can share with it, like that one time when you didn't open a LEGO set that you really wanted to build but sold it for some more money.

Are you worried about buying original Japanese items from countries other than Japan? Our Japanese staff will send you with care. anyone have any idea what they are trying to say here? F5 F5 F5

It's OK, boss hears you maniacally pushing keys and yelling ahhhh come on! From time to time, so he/she probably thinks you are very very busy.

finger... tired... no HH in sight...

It is also nice because otherwise I would be broke by now.

Dear Neurotic Collector, What are seal codes? Respectfully, Max Profit

Or... "Dear Lego, As a neurotic, truly obsessed collector, I only want to own a Lego set like, hypothetically, a Town Hall, if I can be assured that it is a 'first edition'. Please tell me how I can determine this from the seal codes. Sincerely, Not An Investor"

Question: How does one see the real rover if the rover is on Mars?

Tell him you are a rich investor and will give him a huge grant to see the REAL Rover on Mars.

If one not a collector, then just bricklink it. Yes, it does look scary at first. But people went through 90s with such interfaces, and survived...

I got a similar ebay email from the same person about 20 minutes ago.

got super lucky today at westfarms mall in ct - on a hunch called this am, asked if they had any TH and/or Tumblers. yes and yes. not just one, right? no, several. booked it down from western mass and got there around 3pm - it was DEAD in the mall and the lego store was also quiet. the usual know it all remember every customer manager dude was not there. instead I had this nice sarcastic jeanine garofalo type of manager who wanted to sell some lego since no one else was buying anything. i mumbled something about having to buy my nephews and godson xmas gifts. yeah - right. these are gifts... walked out with 3 perfect mint TH's, all 38R4. Ths were in back - none on the sales floor. also let me buy 2 mint Tumblers. everything was double VIP and gave me 5 holiday promos.

I give up. The best I can guess is: VH = 851831 Viking Helmet BZ = 4962 Baby Zoo

Great way to end the show would be to have them be on Alderaan, discussing how Obi-Wan Kenobi was arriving shortly with Bail Organa. Suddenly everything gets very dark and they see a gigantic death star roll into orbit. Then the green lasers fire up, screen goes black, end of series.

Lol, how bizarre. And what a weird thing to be scrolling through this person's auctions and seeing these all mixed together. It's like.. Aw, this could be a cute choice... "Girls Frozen Elsa&Anna Olaf Snowman Kids Top Blouse T-Shirts Clothes 2-7Y Shirts" Ah, that looks nice for my little sweetpea too... "NEW Frozen ANNA Elsa Princess Dress Coronation Gown Costume Girls Xmas Size 7-8" Whoa...wtf?? "LEATHER GIMP DOG Puppy Hood Full Mask Mouth Gag Costume Party Mask ZIPPED MUZZLE" And... "Exotic Men's Full Body PU Leather Harness Chest O-Rings Goth *** Fancy Buckles"

Exactly! Today's haul from LL CA: 2 GE's, 2 HE's, 1RI.

I would think used megablok lots at garage sales are rare. Those are usually mixed in with LEGO bricks in a tub marked "used legos"

Well, I for one know I'll be building the new ISD.

trek, please feel free to create a new speculation thread about the upcoming 8000 element count ep 7 SSD

And now Mr Lego Cashier, we will discuss your policy regarding 1 Tumbler per household.

too lazy to do proper photoshop to change the props to lego store...

Yes. LEGO Shop at Home US

Just keeps coming back. Wish I could get another. Don't have to right tools. Bringing a knife to a gun fight is what I do every time I try to get this. And I don't know where to get a gun.

Hh is popping back at amazon. I grabbed a couple :)

For anyone that hasn't hit their 2/wk limit, keep an eye on Amazon today, looks like the HH carousel is back on.

Nice score Tabby- I have just 3. And I hate to do it, but I'm pretty sure we're going to tear into one of them tonight. I mean, that was always the plan - to have one for ourselves - but looking at prices now (and imagining where they may go)... it's going to be hard to crack those seals. I've been preparing my six-year-old all week: telling him that this will be not his Lego, but our family's Lego. That we're going to set it up for Halloween, then take it down after the holiday - just like a Christmas tree. You will not take the minifigures to your room. You will not swap their heads with your stormtroopers or Darth Vader... jeez... I feel like the dad in the Lego movie. But I gotta lay down some law.

RI Currently available online at TRU.ca: http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp?prodFindSrc=cart&productId=42333006 They have 10 in stock at the time of posting this. Got more than enough from the last time they had stock, so good luck!

sell. the TH will have much more growth left than the Maersk trains

I'd rather speculate and not tip them off to anything (as many LEGO employees in Denmark are reading this). My 2 cents...

Hey uhhh I'm a student of science, and uh I'm so broke, I have 9 kids, will you take $35 since that's what you paid for it? Thanks in advance for being kind.

He gave himself away right in the beginning...how can we believe anything this guy says??

So many sad stories... How does one wade through it all!?

So what you're saying is that AWH should have two HE's soon?

That doesn't make it free.

I think you really deserve it. A genuine reaction. I feel your happiness

Or you can try this:

HH in stock @ Amazon! <and OOS already...sorry, probably happens so fast these days not worth posting it>

Posted this morning on Brickset Post - "Town Hall may very well be done. My S@H order has been cancelled. Oh well, at least I got a free Holiday set out of the deal which already shipped." Question - "^What was the reason for the cancellation?" Answer - ""The demand for the item(s) listed below has exceeded our expectations and the item(s) are no longer available. We regret to inform you that the order for these item(s) has been cancelled from your order" I have never ordered the Town Hall from any place, so it is not an issue where they think I've surpassed a limit. Next post - "Yep, I just got the same email cancelling the Town Hall I bought on October 8th. Same reason - demand exceeds supply. This is the same email Lego sends out when an item retires and they need to cancel orders after running out of stock." First poster again - "I think the backorder date was the 20th when I ordered. I ordered it during a small window when it reappeared on S@H." Another canceled order - "Well, I haven't received the message from Lego yet, but it appears my TH order from the 8th has also been cancelled. When I checked online, the status of my order was "Customer Service", but the status indicator beside the TH line item itself is "Cancelled" Oh Well... The TH is my least favorite modular anyways and I still got a free xmas promo out of it. I'll sleep alright tonight."

I certainly hope that you are referring to me. I like being an E-thug with the power to ban people.

I remember when money orders and cashiers checks were the only way to pay!

Welcome to the site, legolim. Let's see what Google Translate says...."Selamat Pagi! Tandas di mana!" registers as Malay for "Good Morning! Toilet where!" ....Wait, what?

Mega Bloks are crap. The are cheap knockoffs of Legos. Stay away.Mega Bloks are the poor mans's Lego bricks to be honest. They are similar in shape and size and will even work with Lego bricks, but their quality is awful. I like their HALO theme and some of their Need for Speed products are cool, but overall, they are not worth buying IMO.I've used the Mega Blok instructions with Lego bricks with great success when building the Halo models.
