  1. Very happy with this purchase. Still can't believe my luck. In great condition. Only missing a few pieces which I have already ordered from bricklink. Super Star Destroyer next!

  2. Took the instructions from the Maersk train #10219 and Bricklink'd all in black, bought some waterslide decals from a local hobby shop and then modified it a bit to be a Norfolk Southern locomotive in our little city. Nothing special, but we added power functions and it runs great.

  5. As predicted, just sold an X-men vs Sentinel on Amazon for $80 only a few days after the X-men movie opened. I'll net almost a 100% return on these after fees, etc. after getting them on discount only a few months ago. Who says superhero lego sucks?

  9. Not a Lego fruitcake seller but thought this was funny Me: is the Nike swoosh on the shoes reflective? Seller: you either want the shoes or you don't make up your damn mind. Me: I'm sorry but I feel you may have responded to the wrong potential buyer, my question was about the swoosh being reflective or not. Seller: I don't know.

  16. Sold 2 NISB 21109 ExoSuits on eBay $33 ea, free shipping (wrapped in shipping paper only - per my listing - shipped 1st class at 15.5 oz). Lucky for me, when I first bought them, I was just starting out, and I only bought a couple. One of my first Brickpicker "hot tip" buys, about 97 weeks in inventory, now pretty much break-even on the sale (only because I used about $20 in VIP points to buy on one of them). Still, the feeling of having no more 21109 in inventory ... priceless

  17. Review embargo lifted, judge for yourselves. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=133688 Might be worth picking up an example in store today if the rumour about it being delayed comes true à la Wall E.

  19. Nope, wasn't me. I posted the original image when I got it in the mail thinking it was multi-use as usual. I've been busy and haven't checked this thread until now. It sounds like it was a one time use apparently? Oh well. No big deal. Other than Slave I's there isn't much I'm looking to buy right now anyway. I do have about $65 worth of rewards coupons I was hoping to use this week in conjunction with the coupon, but I guess I'll have to wait. You're welcome to whomever was able to use my coupon...lol.

  23. @Phil B - I ran into the same thing. There's a "mark as answered" option within your seller center. I can't recall exactly which screen, but in one of the list views you can filter for "listings with unanswered questions" and then select "mark as answered" as one of the action options in a dropdown, IIRC.

  24. Yeah. I tend to think people read Best Offer as "please make me a derogatory offer and get annoyed when i don't accept it".

  25. I think there's a reason why they sell for more money on BL: There is a certain "guarantee" of authenticity there, and people buying minifigs on BL are much better educated in the minifig market. Over on EBay there are a lot of counterfeits, and it is much more of a gamble - so you'll find parents/grandparents buy the occasional minifig there, but the real collectors will be cautious and much rather buy from a safer place like BL.

  26. Doesn't work for me either... I don't think we need the spoiler tags. wobbly rear hubs (normal as it is a known issue with the part. Poor turning circle and hard to access steering wheel. Fiddly sequential gearbox with no wat of telliing what gear is engaged. 4 revers gears! Problem turning engine in lower gears due to friction.

  28. While waiting for a Windows 10 ISO download to complete, I pulled the LXF file from Eurobricks, opened it in LDD, exported it to LDR, loaded the LDR in BrickStock, went through about 25 substitutions, then made almost everything Black, removed/readjusted the expensive parts and came to ~$90 for a black engine based on 6 month averages, motorized, perhaps missing a few components (LXF file is not complete, and something might have been lost in the conversion). Current minimum inventory price is ~$45. Shipping of course not included, and you might need many orders. So I'd say a safe total price is somewhere between $120 and $150 for the entire engine, motorized, including shipping.

  35. Any builder understands the strife in trying to make something feel natural and organic. Thankfully some have been quite successful in these endeavors which lead back to the subject for this topic. One part akin to "advanced building techniques" and the other being "MOC highlights", I thought it might be interesting to have a central hub for showing off these designs of nature well as ways to create them if possible. A couple of designs here to start things off with hopefully more added as time goes by. Note: This is not only about trees but any sort of scene with beautiful creativity in all things flora just in LEGO form. Cherry blossoms by 片岡 ひろし Technical Tree

  36. I posted this in projects picks a few months back, but the truth of the matter is this would never get pass the approvel stage. I've seen some of your guys modular towns so I'm going post it here too I think it would make and excellent , I would love to build something like this. Loads of detail, actually looks like lego have designed it.

  39. Question for you folks who use/read this thread. Would there be any advantage to having a stickied "Daily Deals" post at the top of each page as for the USA/Canada thread? If yes, which major retailers would you like to see listed? Any specific programs (such as TRUTH at TRU in the US) to highlight? Please feel free to respond here. If the discussion becomes too lengthy, we can move it but I wanted to reach as many European/UK/Other members as possible.

  41. My guess is it will be mainly an online ony order or you have to ask in store to order you one. Not many places will want to carry such an expensive niche set. That won´t stop it getting reduced but it will be interesting to monitor demand at SAH this week. I´m betting it will sell out 1st day and be back ordered through till July. Anything else is bad news after alll the publicity it has had. Speedbuild video Speaki
