Ah, thank you. They did this last year with one of the other big patches too, didn't they? I can't see why they wouldn't open that up by default.

Man, I don't know how to feel about this. LEGO DesignByMe is shutting down in January 2012; LDD will still be around but you won't be able to order what you build direct from TLG anymore. On the one hand, the slow upward markup on pricing over the years basically turned the service into highway robbery, but on the other hand it was a neat service with a lot of cool functionality like custom printed boxes and instructions.

That's too bad, but I'm sure it was never very cost effective for them as a company; custom orders never are. Since they're dropping Lego Universe too, it sounds like they're trying to cut down on expenses.

Man, I made a design in LDD that I wanted to eventually order. I guess I need to HURRY UP THEN. It was only about $20, the pricing isn't too horrible on small models. On the other hand, my 532-brick 3DO LDD model that costs $161.16 (what a bizarre number) was never, ever going to be ordered anyway.

This sucks. I'm just about to order my first custom set using this service and the whole thing is really neat, would have loved to have a chance to do more with it in the future.

Racist cops? Can someone explain this to me? Also, I need to counterweight an assembly... Are there any official Lego counter weights, or should I just glue some pennies together? Or maybe cram some lead fishing sinkers into a lump...

I had completely forgotten I was doing the Lego MBA thing until kit #4 showed up today. Out with lime green, in with mustard yellow, it seems! I had thought we were getting a new box with each level, but this one just came in another plastic bag. The set looks decent enough though. I have my doubts they'll be rolling this out in other countries or adding a Level 3 and beyond, though.

I'm digging the Dino minifigures. Lots of detail on the faces.  Probably wait a while until I get them. I'm hoping for some Pharoah's Quest stuff to get heavily discounted (the way Atlantis is now... in the UK at least) soon and saving my Lego cash for that. I'll have to get this set though because the dude with the camera is the closest I've ever seen to a Lego version of me.

An interesting lesson in how the Bricklink search engine works. I already ordered two boat weights, but I'm about to order up some of those counterweights. Thanks!

And hey, just noticed that the Raptor Chase set has a slouch hat "Clever Girl" type minifig. Awesome. On an unelated note UK Toys R Us has 3 for 2 on all LEGO this weekend. In retailiation Amazon has loads of sets at a third off (Lots of Star Wars, Harry Potter and Alien Conquest). A lot of them are the cheapest they've ever been on Amazon.

Hey Lego goons, maybe you can help me out with the set that I'm looking for. Over the past year, I keep seeing this really awesome motor home set that has pop up on a few different commercials, most recently in the commercial where all the Star Wars mini figs pile into it and then jump into the millennium falcon. I've check the Lego site a few times and it keeps telling me there is one, but it isn't like the one in the commercials. Is it real or did they just build it for that and if it is real, what the product number and what set is it from.

The instructions used to be available on BuildTogether.com, but it looks like they've been removed. There's a PDF mirrored here: http://blockdot.mgnetwork.com/lego/buildtogether/downloads/rv.pdf The first few pages have an inventory with part numbers.
