Missed this one.  Or as my 5 yr old might say in this situation... I never get to liberate any...

Missed too, doesn't easy show up searching 

someone spent some time finding it

Missed out too. anyone who got a bunch I would love one. Trade a Trevi Fountain or a White House.

Walmart was quick mailing the set (at least in my area).  not even 2 days turnaround.   

 

The 21042 box is slightly larger than a CMF retail box.  not as deep (maybe 2" less) and wide but about 2"-3" taller.

No worries. I’ve been working on a fix for her plain shield plate of a face.

 

Anyone with investment in #3450 has nothing to worry about...

(Note: forgive me the substitute face.  I'm trying ideas to eliminate the pentagon tile.)

In cheese slopes we trust.

I would say it is an improvement but a sticker would be better IMO.

I think a sticker would look weird as it would be the only sticker on the set and it would still be flat as well. The cheese slopes, although not perfect, give it dimension.

The face now has detail to look like one from every angle. While unfortunately on the side of masculine at this scale such cannot be helped. Anyway for all we know Lady Liberty may have some distant relatives from Easter Island.

I am inclined to agree. A sticker could function at least from a straight frontal view, however soon as you start turning the model the awkwardly flat face is there again.

Damn I am seeing this on discounts already even in Canada. That's huge considering we rarely get any discount on Lego. I think people are definitely losing interest in Lego.

Where are you seeing it discounted?
