Well, I wasn't really that interested in any of the 4, so give the people what they want I guess!

The NASA sets are pretty much universally well received. It would be pretty weird if the ISS didn't get it. I still feel like Lilo and Stitch just was not a well-remembered Disney movie. As much as they push the characters (especially Stitch) it was a weird movie that came out during the decline of Disney's traditional animation, and it seems like it has a very particular fanbase that is often ridiculed (younger millennial goth girls, mostly.*) So while Stitch may be a solid icon for the company, there's just not that much demand for him, regardless of how good the build looks. *I don't say this with any malice. An observation.

But the character...oh yes. If you go to a Disney park he is one of the characters that gets the biggest reactions. I was surprised to find this out as I felt the same way you did about the film.

I remember liking the Stitch tv show more than the movie, but the character is still insanely popular, particularly in the theme parks. As popular as the NASA sets have been, I’m still kinda surprised Stitch didn’t win that vote. I wonder how much influence the LEM set reveal had on pushing the ISS to victory.

Squashy Nipples posted:My soon-to-be-ex brother in law used to work for Lego, and so my now adult niece and nephew have almost every Lego set made in the last 20 years or so, including some uncommon stuff, and few items that were employee-only. That Deathstar with like 40 minifigs? yup, as well as every X-Wing set every made, and several of the big AT-ATs, and at least one big Star Destroyer. Harry Potter Christmas train? Yup, with an extra 20 feet of track. Literally millions of bricks. Will there be goon discounts or dibs?

I was monitoring the vote the whole time. And while it was a secret ballot the ISS always had a clear lead in comments, which translated to the ratio it wound up winning by. I was also surprised. I thought Stitch was going to win.

I love the background work and Daveigh Chase, Tia Carrere, Ving Rhames, and Kevin McDonald are all great. I was just under the assumption that it got lumped in with Atlantis and Treasure Planet and Home on the Range as being "lovely." Guess I was wrong!

The Stitch would have been neat, but I voted ISS. Why, yes, I do have two Saturn Vs, a Lunar Module, like six different Shuttle variants, and three shelves packed to bursting of nearly every major Space kit Lego's ever made.

Was the Lunar Lander changed much during the Apollo missions? It had to be to carry the Lunar Rover right? Would be cool to see another set with the rover.

There are two storage bays on the lander and the rover was mounted onto a panel on the last two missions. I don't think they changed much that would show up in a Lego model.

Yiggy posted:Any to be parted out as loose bricks or will they stay as sets? Stay as sets. As you can see from her Bricklink listing, she's already selling tiny Friends kits, so yeah, she's kitting everything back up to get maximum value. I guess it might be smarter to part out the ones with tons of one-off minifigs, but she likes putting the sets back together. s.i.r.e. posted:Will there be goon discounts or dibs? No, it's my sister selling it, and she's not a goon. Maybe I could arrange for a private auction? like, I could vet some goons ahead of time, and have it on a Saturday afternoon at her place. I'm sure she will accept a healthy discount on full resale prices for buyers with cash in hand.

Until there's more than just a few friends sets for sale I find it hard to get interested. I got nothing against the series, but they aren't exactly big ticket rare items.

I must say, it's odd that she is starting with possibly the least wanted sets. Usually a seller sells the hot stuff first and works from there. Or the big sets first and then on down to the smaller ones.
