Re: LEGO Angry Birds Sets Coming Spring 2016!

I wouldn't worry Peterk, all that Angry Bird stuff will be clogging up the shelves of thrift stores in 2020. Meanwhile Star Wars will be launching some new movie/videogame/cartoon.

Re: Modular Library Reaches 10 000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

I agree that I would like to see a library, I would like to see a break from the Copenhagen 1895- 1939 design esthetic that all but the Detective Agency and The Palace Cinema seem to have. Ohh...those are the latest sets, I guess Lego figured out that one too.

Or the new TRU.

But the indie sellers pulling BS discounts on Amazon is nothing new. Nothing new at all.

Re: You guys need to see this! A blast from the past

You have to see this Toys R Us and you would understand how this could be found in the back. The store looks exactly the same as when it opened, probably back in the 80s or something.... Sounds like a Zeller store near me. In 2011 I found a couple 2005-2006 Technic sets in the back of the shelf beh...

Notice in most states, the raffle is being held by a school, church, volunteer fire station, etc. Non-profits are exempt from said law.

Re: Target winter clearance

SO....i head into my local to see if they have lowered the Crook Pursuit to 50% off, as I was in the mood to buy a few. Go back to see all of the Joker Steamrollers to be completely gone but the crook pursuit was still there, with a sign stating 50% OFF. http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s146/911d...

This set had me thinking about why LEGO hasn't recreated more iconic buildings, like Cinderella's Castle or Space Mountain from the Magic Kingdom. If those were in the Architecture line, I would buy them instantly!

Re: Baking the idea of a Lego replica of the R.M.S. Titanic

I found the best way to make a sturdy nxm brick where n>=2 and m>=1 is to connect n layers of 1xm technic bricks using technic pin. The pins act like glue in plywood - the layering of bricks limits bending where the bricks meet end to end. Absolutely. In fact for large platforms, I require the tech...

Re: Steal of a Deal / Recent LEGO Purchases

Well, pulled the trigger and bought 10 of the creative towers at $30.00 each. So $300.00 for 16000 pieces. So is everyone buying this set reselling or using to build random MOCs? While I resell, I just don't bother with bulk stuff. I buy sets, if they go up precipitously before I open them, I sell ...
