Dogen posted:when are they going to just buy more aws time or whatever when there's a big launch, geez The stuff still sells whether there are issues or not, so why spend the money? Definitely going to buy the A-M Speed Champions set with the safety car, though.

Also, a Speed Champions safety car is a really fun idea. aye fuckin great another big guardians ship to replace the benatar which replaced the milano before it.

I went to my local Target after lunch. They had a bunch of the new space sets out. The Classic Space Plushie and keychains too. There were maybe 15 cmf boxes left. I used the android app "Minifig Scan (unofficial)," and it worked, but it was pretty clear I'd been beaten to the punch. All that was left were Space Heroine, and Space Butler, and Beetlezoid. It was still nice to know what I was getting. I wanted Beetlezoid, so not a huge deal. I'm building the Mars Rover atm.

trevorreznik posted:Great work on that jedi fighter though. My kid & I just built the yoda fighter Also huge shoutout to you for pointing out the Yoda Starfighter and making me get some ideas for that last thing I made, I had the older version forever and kept it around cause it was one of the first sets I got after getting back into lego. Think it turned out cool….only 2 ships on my shelf that are full original are the Obiwan and Anakin Star fighters and have no idea how I could mod them. a sexual elk posted:Hmm, mebbe next project Anyway thanks for leading the way to this Cause I really like how it turned out and how it just kinda came together, it was a major redesign but it was just a flow of design and feel a sexual elk fucked around with this message at 06:22 on May 2, 2024 |

On holiday and decided to splurge on the Interceptor anyways, was sub 200 hundred thanks to VIP points. Gonna look nice next to my UCS A-Wing. Also apparently Costco has the Tantive IV display piece for 59.99 in a bunch of warehouses. Gonna stop by my local one when I get back cause 80 was a bit much for me but 60 feels like a decent price for it.

More new Summer announcements: Disney, City and Creator 3-in-1. That dinosaur set... holy loving poo poo. I have a little display with all three builds of the original 3-in-1, paired with the fossils from Ideas, because they're the same species. Looks like I'll have to find a way to expand that display... As for the city, looks like there's lots of new animals. And that Lego truck looks spectacular, assuming the side panels are printed rather than stickered. ~edit: Forgot Harry Potter and Star Wars.

Really excited for the red panda, and especially that it's in a small set. I have the 18-wheeler lego truck that came out a while ago, might get the new one too.

FBS posted:The City construction crane and excavator and that modern house 3-in-1 look great, drat. Kids got it good these days. Crane truck looks like a modified (brickified) version of the Technic one from two or three years ago, which for the record is amazing and might have been one of the more under priced and under appreciated models of these past few years, so I'm glad it's getting a second wind.

So I finally sorted through my old lego bins and pulled out all the broken, megabloks, tyco, and assorted non-lego pieces. If my end goal is to sell them in bulk is it worth sorting by color?

Not really. If you know you have any rare/desirable parts or sets it is definitely worth it to put those pieces on top for the photos, people that buy bulk bricks are very good at identifying that stuff and it can only help your chances of a sale. They aren't gonna care how many red 2x4's you have.

Artemis set review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g72AhIp9_u0 TL;DR: not as many stickers as I thought, but when a guy on a Lego channel says a build was "tedious" and "one of his least favorite builds in a long time," it makes me want to wait for a sale long in the future.

The Monkey kid, Ninjago and dreamzz sets all seem to blur into one in my head. There's a lot of cross design between them. Everything is big colourful mechs and pagoda temples. It seems like all three themes just overlap a lot in what they are putting out. None of it is bad, per se, but I find it a bit samey. City and Friends are firing on all cylinders though.
