I've never really paid attention to the collectible minifig series but saw some in my grocery store the other day and ...drat, you guys are paying $10 a pop for these things? Jesus Christ.

I’m paying $5 a pop, you’re getting robbed if you pay $10. I remember when they were $2 a pop

I'm not sure what else they would do for Dune sets. Doing a sand worm justice would be impossible. A small duel set with the Emperor, Feyd, Chani, Irulan, and Paul would be cool for figures, but I don't know how you would make the build interesting.

There's another movie coming so it wouldn't surprise me if there's another set. But what, dune is pretty people focused

Stud-scale Arrakis planet, with each stud being a grain of sand.

My VIP points vintage Lego Space cap arrived. It's fake pre-aged. I think I will get a fair bit of wear out of this.

Oh that's cool. Never even saw it. I'm guessing it is gone already? E: looked it up. I'm guessing you bought that on ebay or something. Those were available 2 years ago.

But yeah, it was first made available 2 years ago. Dunno if it is back or just constantly in stock. That also explains all the new ones on ebay.

What do you guys think would be a good local price for a UCS Sandcrawler*? I'm gonna sell some sets and I have the sandcrawler, but I got it from a friend and even though the set is otherwise complete, there are no minifigs or physical instructions. Ebay isn't really helping because similar sales are all people asking like $400 with

Paper bags! I don't object, just feels like a big change.

I can immediately see a problem with paper bags: you can't see if there is a piece stuck in the corner. Gonna have to be more diligent with feeling the bags after pouring to make sure they are empty. I'd bet that LEGO starts getting lots more "missing" pieces claims after the paper bags become the norm.

I mean they’re paper, just tear them completely open

Just set them on fire and then separate the pieces from the ash

I've got a classic space one. I can't remember the brand name though. I'll try to remember next time I'm there.

I bet it looks okay on a wall from 4-5 feet away, were one looking to accent a room with a swirly purple blob. I think it's a victim of lego's horrible product photography.

I kinda like it but I doubt I'd pay that much for it. Plus, I have a feeling it's not a very fun build overall.

# ? Apr 25, 2024 17:33 |

None of the mosaics are very fun builds.. but they do look a lot better on your walls at home than on the box. I really ended up liking the classic space one, I never would have bought it though. I got it as a gift.

I'll buy Artemis and, just like real life, delay building the set until the Chinese beat me to it.
