Re: June 2017 LEGO Brand Retail Store Calendar Released

You would have to ask LEGO why a bag that probably cost them 4 cents to make is free with $199. That's the first time it's ever been that high, and I doubt it will be the last. Do you know a supplier who can supply them for 4 cents? The ones around here charge around $10 for a cotton tote bag with ...

Re: Lego Cars 3 Sets 2017 [HD Images]

I can find those sets on the shop at home site under Duplo theme.

Not LEGO related, there are also new CARS children books being released. It''s movie tie-in merchandising everywhere.

Re: LEGO 71018 Collectable Minifigures Series 17 Official Pr

So Series 17 is available today, but with a limit of 5 per customer? (in US anyway) I fail to understand the logic behind this - and I'm not happy about it! According to LEGO S@H: Limit We restrict the limit a household can buy in order to be fair to all of our fans. If you’ve already reached that ...

How much lower can it go? At what point will resellers start snatching it up?

Sharks are on the box art but no sharks are in the product description. Does that mean sharks are not included?

Big return on minimal costs and risks sounds like a good business decision from a financial standpoint.

Re: Lego Wonder Woman 2017 figures

And by the way, I'm positive Wonder Woman takes place during WWI. Ah yes, the new WW movie has re-imagined Wonder Woman to WW1. Maybe to avoid a conflict with Captain America which takes place in WW2. The original comics Wonder Woman came out in WW2. WW1 can also work as short for Wonder Woman 1, t...

Re: Lego Wonder Woman 2017 figures

They look good. But I love how LEGO is like "We won't make military vehicles or sets', yet now has made Nazis, Soviets, and WW1 troops. We won't make modern military vehicles or sets except for licensed properties. ;-) Who knows. Companies and management policies can change. Maybe we'll see a ...

Re: Lego Pirates of the Caribbean set 2017 (SPOILERS)

Is that supposed to impress ANYONE? Really, what is the point of that? Pirate fans won't like it, there are no other sets in the theme, it seems completely useless to me. The target market could be people who have seen the movie and want a LEGO version of the ship or completist PoTC LEGO collectors...

Re: 30612 LEGO Batman Batgirl Minifigure Polybag Set

Cheap/free minifigs are never useless. It's not 'free', it's 'free' when you BUY something at full price. May not need to be full price, it depends on the terms and conditions. LEGO stores some times give out polybags after you spent a certain dollar value on purchase. The total dollar value can in...
