Couldn't agree more.  One of my favorite sets.

I was out running some errands and came across this...

Original seals cut with new seals over top.

Stock relocation possibly?? Maybe this is the end of the line or...

Wasn't there an error with this set somewhere? Could be factory sealing mistake or this was one of the sets that had an error that they caught before it left the packaging facility. Or was that delorean...

I haven't heard/read that about either one of those sets, just one of the bigger sets, R2d2 maybe.

Thought I would post about it in case someone could enlighten us.

There was arguably an error with the manual. The binding would let loose the pages at random and with very little force. I personally experienced this on two sets. There's discussion about this on Brickset. I've had the manuals replaced with a call to CS at Lego. Maybe they traced the problem down to a particular batch and have replaced the culprits.

Well this is confusing.  Apparently following the all-girl Ghostbusters there is going to be an all-boy film:

Starring this guy, best known for his role as Danny McBride's gimp in This is the End:

Hollywood is so weird. I'm all in for the cast on the female one. Two though is the last thing needed. 

Dan Akroyd is behind the male version and is talking about this being a multimedia approach - films, TV, etc.

Of assume the new movies will be crap, but should draw interest back to the original, and therefore the set.

girlfriend did the build yesterday (theres a few wrong pieces but w/e) she loves it, i slacked and did the micro fighter lol. Question, What is that orange piece for? it looks like some kind of display mount or something? i just stuck it on the fender lol.

 

 

That is just a lego tool, it doesn't go on the vehicle.

The orange piece is a brick separator. You'll be glad you have it when you go to take it apart.

I think in the manual there's a page that explains that piece. Like dcdfan said, it's for dismantling those annoying pieces that don't come apart.

oh hahah, i like where it is. i wont lose it!

OH, you were being serious. I thought you were pulling our leg there. Lol.

Awesome!

Soon you'll be able to create your own Lego art with them.

Couldn't find the rest of them.

Ahh, the "blooming separator". I shall be making one of my own shortly I imagine with the drawer slowly filling up at a brisk pace with them. At the least I need not ever worry about running out or sully over losing one. Ha.

Does anyone know the latest seal codes for this set?

just bought 5 @ 46R4

It's REFRESHING to see members (or their girlfriends) actually build newer sets instead of 100% investing. Good for you (and her).

Opinions...Is this set gone before Halloween?

 

(I plan on getting a few during this 2xVIP)

In June it will have been out for a year. In October it will be about 16 months in to its life. I'm thinking this one stays around until about this time next year. Others have speculated that with a new movies coming out it could stick around even longer but I'm not so sure. My plan is to grab them when I see them on discount the second half of this year. I think around $40 is a good buy in on these (mine have been an average of $38 so far) but buying them at retail might not be too bad as it is a little difficult to get a discount on this one.

TRU in store raised the price to $54.99 last week, linger potential.

Yep they raised it on the day the $5 coupon came out even though the coupon does not apply to that set.
