It will be more expensive than if it were an official set, but designing and building your own stuff is the entire point of lego so just do it, it's fun. Plus you get to keep the parts and use them in future builds, so the costs go down over time (unless you start going for mega builds).

I really want that Lars Homstead. If I spend over $160 to hit the threshold but use VIP points to discount the order by like $100 do you still qualify for the GWP?

That looks really good. Can’t say the landspeeder has been at the top of my UCS wish list but it does look nice and that Lars homestead is something I really want. I can’t believe it doesn’t include uncle Owen though.

I never had the land speeder toy when I was a kid and always kind of wanted it so this is cool in my book. Wish it was bigger tbh.

Is this one big enough you could put Kenner 3.75" figures in it?, Or probably too big for that to look right?

Cooked Auto posted:I've sorta been doing that, just eyeballing the bags for stand out pieces and then looking them up on Bricklink. Followed by some guesswork based on parts listed. Rebrickable has a feature that shows you what sets you can build with a certain list of parts (or what % of a set at least).

They did some stuff for the first FB movie and then went back to the originals. At least they're covering a lot of stuff that hasn't really been seen before (or hasn't been done in 10-20 years).

BAGS FLY AT NOON posted:I doubt Overwatch was quite the cash cow that HP is. Despite liking Harry Potter for a time, even during my lego prime, the sets have just never appealed to me. It feels almost surprising they're still doing them, but they obviously sell. I'd say at least something like Star Wars has a million different vehicles they can make models for, including a bunch of spin-offs and EU stuff to pull from, but Harry Potter has like, 8? books to pull set pieces from, you'd think they'd be out of ideas. e: New train looks neat, kind of wish I had space to go ham with trains, I bought the previous cargo train set and don't really have room to set it up.
