Re: Wal-Mart USA Black Friday 2016 LEGO Sale
When I went online at around 1:30 am - the walmart was already out of stock and it would not allow me to order online at the $30 price - so I went to a nearby store and got 1 duplo and 1 classic at $30 each. I gave the Duplo set to a disabled neighborhood boy and the classic set I am donating to a t...

For example, Lego will sell its soccer team mini figure sets only in Europe and its Asian Lunar new year sets only in Asia. There are local -regional taste in Lego as well - in Europe - espec...

Lego Education US online shopping changes
When visiting Lego Education US - I noticed that the online shopping selection appears to be drastistically cut back to big set - Lego Education use to offer technic parts that shop.lego.com would not offer - Lego education was especially useful for those in First Lego League as a source for parts. ...

Re: Building accessible star ships to minifigure scale?
Beyond the high cost - e.g. the Lego Death star - just keeping the bricks from falling off is one of the MOC challenges of a large mini fig scaled ship . Modular buildings which are built to the scale of a Lego minifig also have the same challenges. Lego Train bridges and tunnels also have the same ...

Re: looking for advice on technic sets as gift
Hi all. My story: ordered earrings from a jeweler friend who lives in another country. For my wife. Instead of money, she wants me to buy some technic stuff for her husband and send it to her because it's not available where they live. Problem: I don't know my way around LEGO stuff at all. He's int...

Re: First Classic Lego
do not buy a set until you know your kids are *into* Lego first. If your public library has Lego program - take your kids there and see if they like building with Lego. If your childre like building with Lego then observe what they like building - that should suggest what kind of set they might like...

Re: Is the Airjitzu Rotor compatible with Technic axle?
The geared base is a unique piece that clicks into the rotor. Bottom of rotor has a round hole, not slotted for technic axle. It might be possible to wedge a couple round pieces with axle hole to hold a technic axle in place. I found a way - and maybe an application to re-use the rotor. When I get ...
