Re: Mini Modular "Halo effect"
Same exact thing happened to us. We've never bought any of the modulars because we missed the first 3 and we are completists. So we got the mini modulars to satisfy our desire for the large modulars. Didn't work and had the exact opposite effect. While we loved the techniques in the mini modulars an...

Re: [USA] K-Mart 50% Off Clearance
Went to my local Kmart yesterday. They had a full selection of LEGO, but none of it was marked down. I didn't think to ask someone to scan it to see what price would come up on the computer. I could go back later this week, but does anyone think it's worth it? Would they just not have updated the sh...

Re: LEGO 8831 Series 7 Minifigures (Summer)
I wish there were more of the Valkyrie in there, but I'm just happy to see more females and more cool dresses! I am also happy to see 5 evil knights. So going to make an army of them. I'm really digging how cool all the designs are. They've really been stepping up to the plate in the last few series...

Re: Microbuild LEGO Tournament 2012 Contest

Also I dont own the mini modulars, Ill have to look at your mocs to get an idea of dimensions and where the connector brick...

Re: [USA] Amazon $10 Gift Cards for $5
I got mine after a couple of hours. I'm saving the email, but it's also on my voucher screen on the website. If you didn't get an email and it's not on your vouchers, check to see if you got charged for it. You could try to see if they have a contact page and contact them if you got charged, but did...

Re: California Bricks by the Bay 30% lego store discount
Bricks by the Bay was a blast! Still trying to recover from the long, intense and fun weekend. For this discount, you had to be one of the 400 registered convention attendees, not visitors for the public day. This discount is standard for fan convention. The tier works like this: up to $99: 10% off ...

Re: Does PAB stock vary much per store?
I've had a chance to talk to several store employees as well as the community relations guy from LEGO and there is a standard of what should be in all stores. The bottom two rows have to be 2X4 bricks and larger pieces to avoid small children from choking on the pieces. They also have to have certai...

I have always had great interactions with LEGO Customer Service. Especially over the phone.

I remember my husband once called in about something, and got to talking to...

Re: [USA] Amazon $10 Gift Cards for $5
I just ordered and I got a message that it could take 24 hours to get my voucher due to the popularity of it. I don't mind waiting as long as I get it!
And to get even more points, I used my Amazon credit card. I buy a lot on Amazon so it's always a good thing to get more Amazon money.

Re: Friends Polybags at Walmart. 30102, 03, 05
For those in the Sacramento, CA area, the Wal-Mart on Florin road has all of them. They have 2 City ones (a speed boat and plane), 4 Star Wars (STAP, Tie Fighter, Star Destroyer, Republic Attack Cruiser), 2 Ninjago (Cole's Car and Jay with jumping snakes), and the 3 Friends (car, desk and mailbox). ...

Re: Habitat 67 - Next Potential LEGO Architecture 2012 Set?
The VIP Minifigure set was revealed in January to very little enthusiasm. Frankly, I don't think Habitat 67 would have made an enthralling LEGO Architecture set. There is very little in the way of external details (windows, doors, artistic elements) on display in the smaller Architecture sets, and ...

It turns out that Habitat 67 won, but it's not going to be an Architecture set: http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/1142325--montreal-landmark-wins-lego-contest Not necessarily. I get the feeling that LEGO is going to consider it, but can't promise it will make the set or when it will make t...

My wife was able to snag some with my daughter right beside her without her knowing. Sneaky sneaky. Found them in the girl toy aisle where they've shelved Friends. Thank you for the heads up.

Although I bet you can find them on eBay, I...

I love the idea of a build your own Advent Calendar. Eurobricks just did the Expand the Winter Village so I'd prefer not to do that. I didn't enter, but my husband did so it'd be nice to do something different. I also like the idea of vignettes of special memories/moments. I love to do vignettes to ...
