I had Kyle Ren's TIE and the AT AT Assault Walker in my hands and Walmart refused to sell them to me. "Restricted Item, please set aside and continue scanning other items" Damnit don't put them out on the top shelf of you don't want to sell them. Both were marked well below retail too, I had the sporting goods lady price check them since they didn't have shelf tags.

So if you want some idea of how large Ninjago City is - here's a couple of pictures of the box inners: Hope you like stickers!  Boxes within boxes?  3 Manuals? (For reference each of these is probably the same thickness as the Saturn V manual)  I haven't even started building this thing yet. And I have no idea where to put it...

I'm pretty sure that's a regular model just being held really close to the camera. The 3D printed lego is the tiny model on top of that.

Lego just teased the MF again and the box has freakin wheels on it because it's too big to fit in the giant yellow store bags.

How 'ultimate' will this one be? Like, in ten years or so can we expect another, even bigger UCS MF, with a box that has to hover along on a built-in magnetic field? e: heh, and was the cost of the wheeled box figured into the MSRP?

I'd buy it just for the loving box with wheels on it. They had to give me like 2 extra straps when i bought the Ghost Busters Firehouse and they still didn't hold up.

Strange request time... I'm trying to build a lego set for each of the world marathon majors, and there are architecture sets for 5/6 (Chicago, Berlin, NYC, Tokyo - imperial hotel, London - big ben), but there's nothing for Boston. Are there any sets out there that come close to representing Boston? I suppose I have the 10218 modular Pet Store and the brown townhouse next to the store could maybe fit the bill, but there's got to be something better.

Boston isn't known for its architecture. The Fishing Store has the feeling of the NE, though. Maybe that? Or one of the lighthouse sets.

The disappointment isn't just that it isn't built to kid scale, but that he didn't first build in some sort of Lego pedaling mechanism.

There's a bit of pretty famous architecture in Boston, but I agree with this suggestion. Or make your own Tea Party with a pirate ship and some indians

Hot Tip, apparently Toys R Us has all collectible minifigs priced at 2 for $5 until 9/2. Finished out my Ninjago Movie series on the cheap. I initially only bought a few of to help populate the Ninjago City set, but once you have like half of them and the rest go on sale, you might as well finish it out.

Sure, sure. I've got some lego tricorn hats and muskets. I'm pretty sure I have a red ballcap too, to really sell it.

I probably could have gotten a better angle on this. I was feeling kind of overwhelmed. You could also just do a giant Citgo sign.

Yeah...don't recognize any of those. Not like Empire State Building, Sears Tower, Space Needle, Golden Gate Bridge or Transamerica building. Big Ben. Arc D triumph/Eiffel Tower. Independence Hall. Not dissing Boston. Just don't know of any famous buildings. E: Oh wait. Cheers. That's a famous Boston place. Fenway is famous on the inside, but the outside isn't remarkable. I guess you could build a big green wall. Just a bunch of green bricks stacked on each other.

I know of the Old Church but couldn't have told you what city it is in. Also I don' t think the Constitution really counts as a building/architecture. Fenway Park is about all I could tell you.

Does anyone have a 10040 that they purchased new? If so, I have a question or three. Does the triangle sail say Lego Group on it? Does it come with a 125 cm medium string?

Ah..I saw that on Peeron, just wanted to verify with someone who actually has the set. For some reason BL just lists 3 medium string. Doesn't have length. Kinda odd.
