Re: Geoffrey and Friends set 40228 available online

In another LEGO forum, we all want the Geoffrey set. It's like Barney creepy.
People want the set, but not for the reason it was intended.

Re: LEGO 76065 Batman Rescue from Ra's al Ghul & 70596 Ninja

Read somewhere unconfirmed price of $40 for Batman Rescue set. Seems a bit pricey.

Re: New Pick-A-Brick Wall Elements in-store

20140629_185508.jpg I went in the store today and managed to fit 21 horses in the large cup! I tucked in all the legs and the head. Didn't manage to fit much else, but getting 21 horses was well worth it since im not sure if the stores will get them as often as the other pieces. Good job! The LEGO ...

Re: Collectible Minifigures 71007 (Series 12) possible lineu

I can understand LEGO raising price of CMFs due to inflation and creating new moulds, but 33% increase is too much. $3.49 would have been acceptable. Simpsons had new moulds for all minifigs and it's licensed so $3.99 was more than understandable.

I will buy a lot less duplicates at $3.99.

Re: Cuusoo 21104 Mars Curiosity Rover availability

Worth noting that brick specialist at store stated none of the stores are getting that set in store. That could change, but I tend to think it won't since it doesn't have as high profile as Minecraft or Back to the Future. Some stores can barely display all the LEGO sets currently out (my local one ...

Re: Will 10235 Winter Village Market go 1/2 off?

Thank you! This order at LEGO S@H is valid. I just called LEGO S@H and reported this. That guy used my name to place this order, which was 128 dollars. There is no reason he sold me for 85 dollars. From S@H, they didn't find anything unnormal yet. Maybe because it's just not long enough. 85 dollars...

Scooby Doo - Character Building

Anyone know any place that sells the Scooby Doo LEGO compatible blind bags made by Character Building?
I've found some at one TRU, but it never got restocked. I want to be able to feel the bags because I have most and only want the rare Daphne and Velma ones.

Re: [USA] Target Clearance Finds Summer 2013

Found a 70% off lego architecture empire state building 21002 ($5.98). I wasn't aware that Target B&M even carried that line as none of the other target's in my area have any of that stuff. I found a Willis/Sears Tower at one that never carries them. I'm guessing it was a return from online ord...

Re: Mega Bloks Warcraft

Thanks, I just saw some the other day. Looks like they are ceasing production of 2013 sets for now. Sales must be poor. Aftermarket prices are starting to soar for some sets that did not make it to the retail stores. The Series 1 blind packs finally made it into store only 6 months after they were f...

Re: [USA] Walmart LEGO Clearance Summer 2013

I went back for Unexpected Gathering last night. That set is too good to pass up. Very interesting build so far. The way the large round window is constructed is genius. Very iconic set for both Lord Of The RIngs and The Hobbit. But I never liked the open end designs, for a smaller set like this it...

Re: Doctor Who & Scooby Doo Character Building brand

Not easy to find at regular retail stores. Best bet is specialty stores like comic book stores or collectible ones. There are a few well know online sites that carry the Doctor Who ones.

I've been looking a lot to see if Scooby Doo makes it over here in the states, but no such luck so far.

Re: August 2013 LEGO Offers + Summer 2013 Sets

This set is awesome but where the heck is slimer? Click on the link and support it. LEGO Cuusoo doesn't allow new moulds so slimer would either have to be brick built or reuse the "kid" Jabba Hutt fig. http://cuusoo.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/e4435/7ac9d/bd579/cb5f1/9dd3e/97902/a2143/8b04...

Re: August 2013 LEGO Offers + Summer 2013 Sets

I got lucky and got it in one of the earlier releases at the LEGO store. On a side note: If you want a Ghostbusters set to happen as well you can support it at the official LEGO Cuusoo site. Also search for any other ideas you like to support and make it happen. http://lego.cuusoo.com/ideas/view/360...

I am mostly interested in minifigs of "clone" brands. Just went down the slippery slope of Mega Bloks Warcraft as most were 50% off. I'm trying to find the Warcraft blind packs, but I don't see any of them at Toys R Us and they seem to have been released months ago. Anyone have any luck? I...

Re: 21103 LEGO BTTF DeLorean Time Machine Pictures

The minifigs seal the deal for me. I don't like the new hood like other are complaining, but I can deal with it. I believe it's probably due to the fact that 2 of the models have something sticking on the hood. The uglier hood allows flexibility to use for all 3 models.
