Just like the title asks, what LEGO set did you buy today?

I bought the 4184 POTC Black Pearl.

From Amazon:

Dimensions:

Fantastic Beasts Story Pack $24.99

Fantastic Beasts Fun Pack $5.99

Gremlins Team Pack $12.49

 

1x DUPLO Tower
1x Creative Tower

$19 each - WM - probably returns. Never actually get to WM early enough on Black Friday to get these so this feels like an accomplishment.

Picked up Assembly Square to build tomorrow.

Can you post pics tomorrow when you are done? And give a little review?

Will do. Have the day off, looking forward to the build.

Just snagged a 75197 Raptor Rampage form Target for $34.98.  It was just sitting there, being sad.

Oh, also a 30474 Creator Reindeer for...44 cents.  I love Christmas clearances.

Call me crazy, but I've been buying every 75916 Dilophosaurus Ambush at RRP I can find. 

I'm either going to love this decision or regret it if some new sets come out for the new JW movie in 2018 or any other Dino sets.

There are just too much inventory in the wild for these. Not sure if the hype will remain in 2017 for us to flip through the inventory.

meh, its the small things. This puppy is under 16oz shipped, so fist class package anywhere in the USA for under $4. Crap like that make thowing it in a box when sold for $40 make it worth it

In UK JW sets have been quite scarce. most are already 1.5 RRP after only few weeks / months retirement.  

Not alot of inventory compared to USA. I'm just worried most will hit 2 or 3 x RRP then go back down in price. 

RE is 4x RRP.

Not in Europe. Here we have too many Super Heroes and Nexo sets.

Either we are talking about different puppy  but there is no way you can ship 75916 for first class of course unless you throw the box or take stuff out like manual. Set itself is over 1lb. I need to go and check exact but I am pretty sure it's over 1lb. Most likely 1lb 2oz range

30320 at one point reached over 10x RRP is us

I've just got 2x 76057 @ $100 aud, unsure whether this is a good deal or not. 

I bought a few dozen Mixels at Target.

The entire JW theme had a solid sell through this holiday season.  I have some faith with these over the next two years now.  About 6 months ago, I thought it was my worst decision.. now, I think it has some pulse.

It might help to consider the sudden disappearance of JW sets from retailer at some point. Didn't they stop producing them or something for a few months? Or did they just have problems keeping up with production?

Dinosaurs are just a popular theme, and I think this theme was very popular over the 2 years it was out.  It's unknown if Lego group will get the license for JW2, but that's going to be a tell tale sign on how far these can go.  Regardless, I think all these sets will at least double by next christmas.  Plus, the amount of people holding stock has dropped in half compared to last year, so many dumped their stock and got out.

found in an old shop these new 2017 wave 

still sealed despite the age  ?

Mom and Pop were holding out on me again.

Nice find !
