ARCHIVE - LEGO Forums (2009-2017)

There have been a couple reports from Lego employees over the last couple days that said they will be getting more shipments of the DS.

Just to verify, I know the MSRP on some of those sets off the top of my head but not all of them... None of those are the 50% markdown yet right? (that is usually next wave of clearance markdowns after the 30ish % wave)...and the 3rd is the 60-75% markdown. My store has a bunch of stuff still at 30%...

I finally got my hands on the tatooine mini build from star wars celebrations that my aunt and uncle brought back for me. I offered them money, but they said it was a gift! Nice gift! Either they had a VIP/Medical Badge or camped out overnight to get it...or payed more than retail. Either way. Keep...

I went to the Lego store at downtown disney a few months ago when I went to celebration (which was fantastic). Even though the store was pretty new and well stocked I couldn't force myself to buy anything because of the tax. An extra 9% added on to everything in the store made it seem like a rip off...

I hope the Wampa cave that we see in the video is included (I'm expecting it to be, it is a new design) The original Wampa Cave was one of those sets I waited on, trying to find a better deal, and missed out. I remember seeing it at B&N when it was near retirement for 35$ and I thought that wasn...

Like mentioned above, you can't be expected to know every license owned by a competitor. Ideas won't automatically reject a project as soon as it is submitted because of licensing conflicts. They tend to let it go and worry about those issues if it reaches its goal. Who knows, maybe in the year that...

Megabloks bought the TMNT license

My Walmart finally dropped down to the final level of clearance. To bad there was only one set left on the shelf by the time I got there. I picked up the X-men vs Sentinel set for 15$ (MSRP 49.99). I had been passing on a bunch of them for 35 for two weeks. There had been quite a few sets on clearan...

I'm curious, isn't this copyright infringement by modifying and using the Lego and Star Wars logos, box design elements and images?! I get "creativity" but you're using someone else's intellectual property without consent. And people complain about the Chinese counterfeiters... Seriously?...

A lot of the same sets are on clearance. I think some stores are just very slow.

Noticed a lot of sets have gone on Clearance this week at Wal-Mart: Ninja Turtles 79117 Turtle Lair Invasion - 74.00 (Reg. 99.97) Chima 70144 Laval's Fire Lion - 35.00 (Reg. 49.97) Chima 70143 Sir Fangar's Saber-Tooth Walker - 30.00 (Reg. 39.97) Superheroes 76022 X-Men vs. The Sentinel - 35.00 (Reg...

If my math is not wrong, overall it is just 20% off if same value items are purchased. Is there any Friends & Family event going on at the same time? Maybe I am not understanding what you meant? I think everyone understands what a Bogo sale will equal per item...when comparing equally valued it...

All this week Fred Meyer is having a BOGO 40% sale on all Lego (excluding friends/elves). You may be able to find a few things marked down that this will stack with...but that is very much a YMMV thing. There isn't really anything out right now that I'm still looking for. My Freddy did have Simpsons...

Checked the price lately? It's 900$ on amazon, 700$+ on bricklink...800 is a fair estimate

StClair wrote:IF they are mini-dolls does anyone think there is a chance they will fix the legs so that they can move independently?

I don't think they will any time soon but it really needs to happen. It would improve the minidolls a lot imho.

Do we have to make any purchase for these posters? Just walk in and ask for the posters? AFAIK, according to the listing, only the new hope poster will be given out during the May the fourth promotion. Not sure on specifics. It also says additional installments will come in the coming months so I g...

It is confirmed they are flat and not folded

There is also a free mini build each day that comes with a very nice printed brick that says celebration 2015,

That's good to hear that there is chance they could be flat. I've only ever seen them folded (though I don't get to a Lego store very often). I have even tried to lay them flat and put books on them to even out the creases but it never works. I still have the posters from the UCS R2 and the Sail Bar...
