I've got a spare motorcycle lying around, waiting to be put to good use. I may have just found it.

Picked up some Series 13 and 15 again on my grocery run today. Got only one dupe in all 7, which was a second Space Marine (or w/e that guy is from 13). The others were Hotdog Guy (woo!), Egyptian guy, Accident guy, the robot guy, and the pest control lady. Also those probably aren't their real names. Still no Keno / Samurai from either set OR Scary Warrior, but I'm holding out hope. Also noticed today that Target had series 13 cleverly at $4.98 instead of $3.99

Pyroclastic posted:I wanna say it was me, way back when we first learned about them. And I'm still interested in a full set. Pyroclastic on January 30th, 2016 posted:Also on that page is Germany is getting an exclusive-to-them minifig series of Football players. We non-German collector types may have to try to arrange something to get them over here, like I did for the Team GB thing during the London Olympics, but I'm not sure I know anyone in Germany. You are indeed to the first poster expressing a desire to aquire a set of the German soccer minifigs. If you want them, they are yours for retail price (16x2.99€) + shipping. I have opened the packets, and can send you every player+ball+baseplate and include either all or 1 of the "instrucions" plus the opened packets if you want them. I'll have to sort shipping out, see what's safest etc. Hit me up in a PM with your address and I can research shipping options.

Finished modeling a micro-scale TIE Defender last night, ordered the parts on Bricklink and can't wait to build the physical copy.

Makes me want to go back and fix my micro-scale Kylo Ren shuttle - sometimes things you build in LDD have, uh, structural flaws that cause the wings to just fall off over and over.

Bought an incomplete (and uncommon) 1968 (Unnamed starship) off ebay. Finding the replacement parts is gonna be harder than I was expecting...the trans-yellow hoses are not very common, and they're at least $3 apiece, and I need six. One US seller wants $10 for blue robot arms, which is ridiculous. No seller has the 5 part types I need, either. Only seller with 4/5 has an $80(!) minimum buy.

I don't think I've ever seen that set, anywhere. I like how the robot has a dish for a head instead of the traditional travis brick with antenna. Needing to buy from a dozen different sellers to collect classic parts is pretty normal though. Someone somewhere must have a giant stockpile of yellow hoses, because all the ones I had as a kid have gone missing. There's probably some master thief out there somewhere that traveled the world stealing them all, planning to sell them to fund their retirement in 30 years.

Along those lines, bricklink prepping for an update: http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/newsview.page?msgid=987449 Some refinements to wanted lists and buying stuff on your wanted lists.. including an option to upload LDD files to build a want list, which is pretty bonkers.

Mariachi guy is the hidden gem of that set. The printed compass tile is super cool though. Well and the penguin for more ice skate pieces.

Ooh, yeah, looking good on a lot of those. I might have to get the goggled head on Archer there and put it on one of my Ray Stantz Ghostbusters. Also two different penguins, Femborg, Elsa gone bad, lil devil, gay dog dude, teen mom and of course,

Just went through the box of football figs, tried to sort the dupes by bumpcode which was a pain since there are two sets of two figures which share seemingly identical bumpcodes. Ended up with only two full sets (For some reason I only have 2 schweinsteigers ... go figure.  I'm pretty sure the box had at least 3 of everyone else. And schweinsteiger was one of the three figs I was missing for my already started set, together with two others which only had three each in the box)Current list of spares (Mostly unopened): Hummels x 1 Hoewedes x 1 Schuerrle x 4 Kruse x 1 Boating x 2 Mueller x 3 Loew x 1 Reus x 2 Oezil x 3 Khedira x 4 Mustafe x 4 Goetze x 4 Kroos 3 Needed to complete a set for me: - Schweinsteiger x 1 Needed to complete a third set for someone else - Neuer - Kramer - Schweinsteiger Hopper: Do you have a Schweinsteiger or any of the figures I'm missing for an unclaimed set in your pile of spares? Anyone else who is interested in any of the spares let me know, otherwise I'll try and return them to the store I bought the box from.

I'm surprised Lego Sam Fisher has a "realistic' looking gun. You don't really ever see that on non licensed stuff. I really like pretty much that whole series. I'd be happy getting just about any of them. Goth kid is kind of lame though.

Maybe, but it's obviously intended to be a pistol on that figure.

Didn't you buy a sealed box? If so you must have made mistakes identifying the packs. A complete box MUST have 3 full sets (3x16) + 12 spares. Unless you bought an opened box. Edit: If you can't get your team together I do have an extra Schweinsteiger. Hopper fucked around with this message at 23:48 on May 23, 2016 |

I know the part. I have a bunch of them. I'm just saying I'm surprised they gave a non licensed figure a black pistol. You don't see that much.

I did, I even saw the salesperson take it out of the shipping box from lego. I sorted all the figures by bump code while watching a movie and then opened enough of em to finish three series. My schweinsteigers have a very distinctive bump pattern which I can't find on any of the unopened packs, but I'll double check the hair pieces tommarow. According to a box listing on eurobricks it should have had four.

Why don't you just open all the packs? Noone cares if they are unopened. Plus I seemed to remember readign soemwhere there are 3 different series of bumper codes.

Because nobody else seems to want the figures and I don't want to deal with the hassle of ebay, so I'll return whatever is unopened instead, or try eurobricks. There are several series of bump codes, but they can be IDed by the number on the packet and are per factory / assembly line, meaning a single box should only have a single type of bump code.
