Whoever got to TRU a minute before me when it opened and bought 6 of the 7 VC's and left me with the dented one. Arg!!!

Went to my Lego store this morning. Just out if curiosity. Nothing for kids left. Some selection for adults but mostly the mostly the $200 sets (police station, bookstore, stranger things). Multiple AT-AT, glad I resisted the urge to get one to get the lightsaber.

Not a complaint but I went to Target yesterday and there were literally zero Friends/Disney/Creator sets left and only two different City sets - two big wildlife theme ones. 

Same. My store has hardly any selection but the ones they have, they have a ton of (select Marvel, SW, one $10 Friends). Very interesting because 30+ of one set that's not a total dud must be an inventory management decision. Oh and 25 or so Elf Clubhouses. Hope they will go on 30% off after Christmas.

One of the perks of living in Romania.  This was a couple of days ago and all of the LEGO stores look like this.  Heck, grocery and toy stores look like this too.

Another because of file size...

LEGO Marvel Avengers Taskmaster’s Ambush 77905

Walmart putting the online order red and white sticker squares on LEGOs and then yanking them and the artwork off with them before throwing them in the shipping box.  They come of nicely if pulled off slowly, but clearly the employees that are packing my orders don’t care.  The sets are otherwise in fine condition which makes it even more frustrating.

😡

Navigating Florida’s state government bureaucracy. Granted it’s most likely any state government’s bureaucracy.

All the paperwork with a cross country move is a pain in the ass. Titling cars (and a trailer), getting drivers licenses, and getting immunization records transferred from California to Florida is a big pain.

any of you ever receive the wrong items using IWOOT?

Yep, I opened a ticket, took some pictures, and they refunded.

I keep receiving Honey Gold offers via email for oos sets on Lego shop at home 🤦‍♂️.  Today's offer is $95 gold on the Titanic, which of course is oos.

I got stuck in the snow in the post office parking lot.

RIP Betty White 

RIP Sam Jones. Go Celts!

No January first sets available yet. At least not the ones I just looked at.

Yeah, the snowtroopers went up for sale, but the clone troopers and rebel Hoth troopers still say "coming soon".  How hard is it for Lego to roll things out smoothly?  

Sunflowers and sw bhz aren’t available. Still show as “available January 1st” or whatever. But the bmw bike for example can be added to the cart. That small high speed train…no go. That’s looking more and more like the sets I mentioned are the part of the earlier announced “delay”. 
meh Lego 

Now it says "coming soon" instead of "coming January 1st".  

 

rip

RIP Betty White. You will be missed.

Not impressed with the size of the ‘Amazing Spider-Man Poster’ VIP reward. Modulars in the background give you an idea of the size. Yes, the dimensions are online but I had assumed it would the size of the Disney prints. Ohh well…At least it was not too many points.

yeah..calling these prints "poster" is misleading...but they are sized well for framing

When did Books-A-Million officially stop selling LEGO?  Did they ever blow stuff out, or did stores pull all of their inventory?
