Re: [USA] Amazon - 9467 Ghost Train for 25% off

Good while it lasted. Pretty sure 25% is the lowest I've seen it, even though it's only a few $$ cheaper than last week. Finally hit a price I'm willing to pay though, as I don't think we will ever see this set drop too much more.

I have to agree. It's really not a very impressive set.

Re: [Amazon] Urak-Hai Army 9471 for $24.74

Decent price. The wall section on this is pretty small and this really is all about the figures. Still a great way to pick up a large number of Urak-Hai forces if you want to increase the size of the assault force on Helm's Deep. I do wish it came with an even split of factions though. It would be n...

Re: LEGO 76004 76000 Superheroes 2013 Sets

Yeah, I don't know where people are getting $40 from. Maybe from just doing a straight currency conversion or something, which does not work with LEGO. These should be at $25 max. They are similar in size and likely piece count to the current $20 sets in the SH line and the $25 Desert Skiff in the S...

Thank you. It's the S8 man bat figure. I was going to go with a zombie, but he just seemed a little more sinister since most of what you see is his outline.

Re: [REVIEW]: 9492 Tie Fighter

I agree on the extra minifigures being there to just drive up the price a little. I was impressed with the finished model, but it suffers from the same problem as most ships...there's really not a whole lot to do with them after they're built.

[MOC] Getting in the Halloween spirit

I decided to build a little Halloween display piece for our living room. I was inspired by the Ghost/Clock polybag set. The clock is the same as what's in the poly, but the rest was from my own playing around. hmoc1.JPG You can see more pictures here Now it's time to brainstorm for Thanksgiving. Thi...

Well that was quick....the minifig pack is sold out online already! That's nuts. Can't you get most of the minifigs in those packs for like $1-2 each on BL? The classic space reissued ones I'm interested in average around $7 new. I'm sure the reissue is easy to tell vs. a true new copy of the origi...

Re: Sneak Peek at future sets in Batman Visual Dictionary?

The use of the term "sketch model" on each kind of negates the possibilities of these being 'official' sets. Agreed. The jet looks way too rough to be something TLG would actually consider putting out as a set. Although, I would not mind getting a large variety of clear parts out of it if...

Re: Why no LEGO city zoo ?

I like the idea of a safari/wilderness expedition theme as well. It would be a much easier way to do animals that way, considering you would have to devote so many bricks to the enclosures for a zoo.

Re: Toys R Us Buy 2 Get 3rd Free 9/16-9/22

What is the best way to approach this sale? Obviously you want three sets at the same price, or 3 of the same set. But are there any combinations that make the most sense? EDIT: Looking around a bit, everything large has a limit of 2 on it. Based on the last BOGO 50%, if you want modulars you will n...

Re: [USA] Target 30201 Monster Fighters Ghost polybag

My closest store put them out last Friday. I picked up a few thinking I could come back later if I wanted more. When we were at the store on Sunday, the end cap had been cleaned out.

It will be a shame if there are not more around as we get closer to Halloween. It really is a pretty cool set.
