LEGO Sorting Timelapse

After a decent amount of time spent presorting a box of brick, I decided to shoot a timelapse of the sorting of the 1x? plates. I bumped into a couple of non LEGO® pieces and I'm still trying to recover from that harrowing experience, although I've included some advice on how to sort those pieces as...

Jamie Berard really knows how to design for kids and adults alike. Whatever they're paying him they should double it. ;-)

Re: LEGO KIT KAT Set #27325

Seems like someone who works for Kit Kat said, "Holy moly that LEGO Movie sure is popular. What could we do to capture some of that publicity!?" Person 2 said, "Build a giant LEGO set that's kind of pointless?" Person 1, "YES!"

Re: The LEGO Movie is Out Today!

I'd have to think it would be pretty easy to piece together Emmett's car, with or without the instructions. I'll be searching through my pile o' car-related LEGO pieces to see if we can build one at our house.

Yeah, I just called our theater and they said one per Regal crown club card. Trying to figure out how to work the system when I take my 2 sons and their friends. Sign up for Regal Crown Club, kids!

Re: [US/CAN] Free Castle Mini Build on September 12

Generally speaking, you're probably best telling them the truth if they ask, unless you're not planning on shopping there any more. They have rules posted and most stores are flexible to a degree but just telling them something because they can't prove it is a good way to spoil your lego karma. ;-)

Re: Creator Expert 10235 Winter Village Market

It's nice, but doesn't look like a market and doesn't look like a $100 set. To me it looks like a winter fair. It doesn't look like a market we're used to here, but looks a lot like these, although quite a bit smaller. There's even one with a carousel: https://www.google.com/search?q=christkindlmar...

Re: New UCS Sets 2013

I hope the winter village is better then the Medieval Village that I cant find anywhere reasonable. That's because the medieval village has been retired for a year after 3-4 years being aviable for the incredibly cheap for 1600 pieces, $100. And often $89 on Amazon, which makes me think this new Wi...

Re: Amazon.com 20% off first 100.00 spent code

Got the Medieval Market Village for about $72 after discount. Had some gift card money too so I paid <$30 out of pocket. It's worth noting the maximum value you can get taken off is $20, but you don't have to spend $100 to get to the discount threshold. It's just 20% off.
