The REAL Gtab Fan posted:Boy howdy the Ecto-1 looks pretty cool. Not too far from what the guy made either. The only thing that looks better on the prototype is Peter's hair. Anybody know what piece that is?

So I'm heading to my local Lego store(Pleasanton) tomorrow morning with my kid (before Free Comic Book Day). Any reason to get there early though?

Waldorf Sixpence posted:Apparently the Lego store nearish to me is having a 15th birthday event, including a free gift for the first 100 people through the door (what are my chances?), free minifigs on a spend over £25 and a free Lego Store set if you spend over £100 I'm guessing this is Westfield? I didn't know it had been open that long.. I hadn't heard about this, and that's my nearest store too. Anywhere I can find details?

Guess the online May the 4th sale didn't start at midnight EST, wonder if it'll be like 9am EST or something. edit: then again a bunch of Star Wars stuff is on sale now, but it doens't look like any of the big ticket stuff went on cool sale price, looks like 9525 is half off though.

Wow, sale has been up less than 10 minutes and The Malevolence which was half off is already sold out. I put the sandcrawler in my cart but only get the poster and no minifig it doesn't seem to be active yet for counting towards the $75 for Revan.

On the other hand, we still have two modulars and a sea cow to build, so I guess Lego sort of saved me from myself.

Yep, nothing that interests me. B-but... Revan! Already have four A-Wings.

Got a X-Wing and an A-Wing. Was originally going to get a Headhunter instead of the X-Wing, but... oh Porkins, I can't deny you.

Well hopefully the Malevolence comes back in stock tomorrow like the B-Wing did.

It's the last of the existing sets I want and can reasonably spend the money on. I'm still going to the Lego store tomorrow to buy it and get Revan but would have been nice on a little sale.

I didn't expect the UCS X-Wing to go half-off, because it's doing a lot better than the B-Wing, but I was hoping for a 10-20% discount. Apparently it's doing a lot better, I guess.

I already picked up the Malevolence when it was on clearance at Walmart because I knew it was the last time I was going to see it locally, so that's out. The Y-Wing is kind of tempting, but it's not nearly the deal that I was expecting. Oh well. I still have the Kingdoms Joust and Sea Cow waiting to be built. edit: Nevermind. Y-Wing is out of stock now too.

How much larger is the UCS xwing than the normal one? Looking at photos it looks likes its maybe 8 or 9 studs wider on both sides, which would make it not a huge amount larger than the normal one. I'm still undecided on whether to grab one or grab the new star destroyer and benny's spaceship when those two sets are released.

I really hope the UCS x-wing goes on sale tomorrow. If not this sale is hot garbage compared to previous years.

My girlfriend told me that I "should" get the republic gunship and that I "should" redeem my $30 in points. My plan was to do this on the cheap but oh well I was getting that Revan no matter what. I'm tempted to fire up KOTOR later....

Got an extra Ralph and Krusty, need an Apu, Burns, and Itchy. I also have an extra S8 DJ and Alien villainess if you'd like. If anyone would be up to do a trade, please let me know!

If anyone would be up to do a trade, please let me know! I will buy Ralph from you if you're selling. What I have for trade is mostly all older series figs: 2x painter, baseball player, skydiver, and george washington. I also have some hobbit figs from 79003 - that would be Bilbo, Balin, Dwalin, Bombur, and Bofur with accessories (I even have Gandalf somewhere but I haven't seen him in over a month, pretty sure my cat ate him). Also have two Bilbos in red shirt. Also, I have some older space minifigs - two black shirt futuron figs, 1 yellow shirt (all have slight wear, can take pics if you want to see) and a Blacktron fig that is pretty much perfect. Space figs lack air tanks and helmets. I want to collect a full set of Simpsons, so far I have (or will have soon) Bart, Marge, Lisa, Maggie, Krusy, and Chief Wiggum

Woop woop, snagged Itchy & Scratchy, Ralph and Chief Wiggum and Nelson. So pretty much everyone I wanted to get since I already have the Simpsons house. I don't get why they made the minifigure version of the simpsons so much better than the version of the family in the House set.

Built General Grievous's Wheelbike yesterday. I'd heard it was the second version and there was one a while back too. Wondered why they thought that particular one needed a new version, so I looked it up on Brickset. The old one looks kinda rubbish to be honest. This version is great, and his minifigure is great as well. I kind of want a bunch of him now to give him a load more arms. Might cannibalize a bunch of droids to add some extra bits too. The old minifigure looks like total rear end. Anyway, I've had a look through the rest of the Lego stuff I've bought recently, and it's almost all robots with legs. Two of the three I got for this Star Wars offer are robots with legs, the movie set I got is a robot with legs, and there's a Creator robot with legs and Galaxy Squad robot with legs as well. Didn't even do it on purpose, that's just how things went. Guess I like robots with legs.

Welp, it's not a daily thing. Still the same selection. I skipped double VIP points for this.

My local TRU has been price matching sales online, I wonder if I walked in with those prices on the Malevolence and Mandalorian fighter if they'd give me them. Cause I know my TRU has like 40 Malevolences in stock. edit: Amazon just kicked of a Star Wars sale too, bunch of Lego sets are on sale, including the Millennium Falcon http://smile.amazon.com/gp/search/r...%20lego&ie=UTF8 Corn Glizzy fucked around with this message at 08:21 on May 4, 2014 |

Here's a handy link with options added to narrow it down to: Prime eligible, sold by Amazon, 25% off or more, only official Lego sets. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_nr_p...&rnid=598397011 edit: despite this, it still lists stuff that's like, a dollar off of 12 dollars.
