Yessssss I was having a lovely day at the office and then my ExoSuit (ordered like a month ago), and my Knowhere Escape and Milano sets arrived directly to my desk all at once. I swear shipping straight to your work address is the best idea ever. On the other hand, my wallet hates this thread sometimes. You people made me cave on the GotG sets!

If not landing gear than at least a UCS stand or something for it to be displayed on.

Do any of the Blacktron trans neon green pieces ever make it to the PAB walls? Like round or square 1x1s.

Normal trans green shows up every so often though. Which is the better green anyways.

I pressed my internal "gently caress It" button and picked up Benny's SPACESHIP!! to go along with The Milano. That thing is enormous, and full of so much detail, holy goddamn. It's brilliant.

The Ecto 1 build is like my favorite build ever, but drat that black background in the instructions made it hard for my girlfriend and I to tell grays, silvers, and blacks apart.

Pyroclastic posted:Two minifig-scale Minecraft sets have been revealed. Those actually look really nice. I wonder how much of it is printed and how much is stickers, I hope the majority of it is printed(at the very least, the minifig stuff/animals). The Minecraft tools in minifig form are neat, too. Can't wait for a set with a Creeper to come out and it to never be in stock forever because who doesn't want an official Lego Creeper who is also into Minecraft?

I suspect those are pre-lim pics. You can kinda see the edge of the stickers on Steve and the Spider's faces. I really doubt they'd make minifig heads use stickers.

Swung by the Bellevue Lego Store today and saw that the Spider-Copter set was 20% off. Even at $36 for a 299 piece set that I really only want Mary Jane from, I couldn't pull the trigger. I can't help but think that'll go way lower at a Target clearance

I'm just going to the store today to get mine. I mean, they should be there, right? I've never bought a set early before but they had the fairground mixer on display early it seemed like.

I still can't believe the Ghostbusters firehouse made it to 10k (not that it isn't super cool). I feel like this round is going to be another one where the winner will be obvious because all the other ideas are ridiculous, impractical, or ridiculously impractical.

I love the microscale ones, but it's because there's so much in there that they feel like Minecraft. Minifig scale Zombies and Skeletons and Steves are cool, though.
