Re: [USA] LEGO Dimensions on sale - Massive Discounts!

Thanks for this notice. I was able to pre-order some of the 19 January releases at a discount.
I was disappointed to find that Aquaman and Midway Arcade aren't due out until March. I've got Gold Bricks waiting!

Re: Target Summer Clearance 2014?

My local Target had put some of their City sets on Clearance. Most of the 30% off pricing just made it comparable to online prices (e.g. Amazon or Target.com).

I did manage to snag a Cargo Terminal for $70, though.

Okay, those are awesome looking. They need a container to store "guts," though.

Re: 2014 LEGO X-Men Minifigures

It's a real shame that with the large cast of X-Villains available versus the two X-Villains that we've already gotten in LEGO Minifigure form, we're getting *another* Magneto. What a wasted slot.

Yay for Storm, though.

Re: Bricktober 2013 LEGO Sale Week 1 at Toys R Us America

You can still get the 15% off code on the website and free shipping on orders over $79. The Hard-to-Find exclusion is noted on the website even though it's omitted in the store ad. A shame, really.

All in all, I still came out ahead so I'm happy.

Re: Press Release for New set Tonight

Wow, this is a nice set. I especially like the back door/dumpster addition as it adds more to the environment than just the building. The flip down attic access was also a particularly nice touch. I've still yet to pick up the recent expensive sets like Arkham and the Cinema, and if I don't have the...

Re: 21103 LEGO BTTF DeLorean Time Machine Pictures

If it seats Minifigs, I'll buy it, but I gotta agree that some of the artistic license taken on this model is a bit gag-inducing.

Re: [USA] Amazon - Lone Ranger sets for preorder

Saw all of the sets at TRU today. Of course, the prices are inflated to a premium, and even with the $15 off $75 purchase, the Mine set only goes back down to its $70 actual retail price.

I can wait a couple more weeks and save $5 per set at a minimum.

Jabba's Palace/Rancor Pit Upgrade

I recently purchased the Rancor Pit set and found that while it was pretty neat, it still had some pretty glaring issues. Chiefly among them, the fact that when connected to Jabba's Palace, the gate piece had to be swung outwards in order to be opened. This, along with having to disconnect the tower...

Re: LEGO Figure in Space

Might want to add "24 kilometres" before the "above sea level" in your link.
I'm browsing the internet above sea level right now, and that's not quite nearly such an astonishing feat as what these two guys have done.

Re: [USA] ToysRUs LEGO Sets on sale at MSRP + Coupon

That coupon only works if the items are not on sale ["Excludes sale items and promotional offers"], and since TRU so conveniently put all those Lego sets on sale, it means that the coupon is basically useless for Lego purchases.

Shame, really.
