A couple of A-Wings, along with the BB8 promo, from Shop @ home.
And last night I found a Policeman at Canadian Tire.

This one?

Naw, it was more like this

Lego Birds set with the 15% off promo code through Ebay.

Well I couldn't help myself...

Besides those posters are truly terrible indeed.
I caught today my friend who is a supervisor in Leicester Sq and he told me that marketing team gave them a strict instruction to remove Vader Pods even knowing that they have plenty of stock available - he confirmed me that. They will most likely hit the shelves with price tag.
They have already the Cloud City marketing promo materials on computer.

Anyway. Finally I have A-Wing with one and only himself - Lando!
I've never been a huge fan of the Brickheadz but I just couldn't help myself resisting those from the new run. They are fantastic!

Ahh, I see you got two BB-8s!! That poster looks so bad, LEGO could of done better.

Had some fun hunting...

 

Started out with my company's model home furniture (&other stuff) sale. Picked up a small Classic set and a Large Lego brick storage bin for $5 ea. Dropped by Walmart on the way home picked up the 4x4 response (60165), then later picked up the crazy deals on the Scout Walker, Bane attack and brickheadz.

eBay (probably from one of you guys) at USD 105 shipped

I had 15% off eBay gift cards so I really spent USD 90

 

Picked up the new Solo movie TIE fighter today. 

I sold my FO model as I wanted more Imperial style. 

This one?

Don’t you know?

Those Canadians don’t tire.

 

Bought minifigure series 1 - 10 off of Craigslist for $600. Beautiful condition, looks like they went directly from the packages into the frames!

Slowly knocking down my retired UCS/Modular list. I have a toddler and another due in a few weeks, so I have forever to be patient and wait for my prices since it will be years before I ever have time to build anything.

No box, instructions, or sticker. Missing/replaced pieces noted below. Seller states 100% LEGO, so an easy SNAD case if necessary. But someone trying to scam does nothing for themselves by stating it's 100% LEGO and compiling a missing parts list. Seller has a history selling LEGO, and good feedback, so I'm not too concerned.

31079 - Sunshine Surfer Van for $15 at Kmart

I guess I'm going to try the Kmart game again.  They threw a bunch of points at me, so why not use them?  Let's see if this is a one time thing, or if they're trying to get me back.

Anyone think I should buy a  used Rathtar Escape for $20? It's 100% complete and on ebay. I didn't know what anyone else's thoughts were for this set.

they are reported to be as cheap as $10 on clearance at Walmart if you can find one.

I found one of these hiding at a Walmart a couple of weeks ago for $35. Not the best price out there, but I was happy to find it. I very rarely find the crazy deals that I see posted here.

I was happy to find one at $35 for personal build.

I bought a Haunted House 10228 on ebay for $150 with free shipping.  I actually bought it in late April but received it recently.  It was an open box sealed bags and it was all as described.  Once a while, I take a chance on a too good to be true item on ebay.  I am just glad this one worked.  It was sent wrapped in brown crafting paper so the box was damaged but no complaints from me.

Bought a sealed but in a bad condition 10224 - 250 Euro...

Got my series 18 policeman finally... It wasn't from a brand new box but luckily, it was the first slim package I picked up... or was it?

I don't know why I do what I do.

Picked up my holy grail set today at a local collectibles swap meet. Paid $145 for a near mint box. Hopefully Lego puts out some new Indy 1-3 sets when 5 hits but not this one

You mean Indy 4. There hasn’t been an Indy movie since 1989.

Yeah that’s a fantastic set. I got a steal of a deal on a used one on eBay a couple years ago. It’s an awesome set.

I have an extra I keep forgetting about.

Went to Denmark with wife and kids over the May vacation and a visit to Billund was of course on the itinerary.   One day visit to the first and original LEGOLAND park, with a very expensive Lego shop inside (so I didn't buy anything there), and another day spent inside the LEGO House, where I brought home these nice mint boxes.
