Dame Cook posted:$150 or £132 for 2,025 pieces and 11 minifigures. Surprisingly good for a licensed set. Not bad a tall. I could probably make a quarter of that back by selling the minifigs.

I can't remember my first set because I was given a lot of the bucket sets and some pirate set I was too young to assemble, but this was the first set I ever bought with my own money. It was a pretty huge deal to me

I think I am actually going to buy a sealed case of series 3. In the first two, there weren't really enough figs that I found very interesting, but with the exception of the Sumo and the Racecar Driver, I want all of those. God drat, I love that pilot.

Dr. Platypus posted:If I wanted to buy a Lego house what would a good option be? It doesn't have to be huge, should preferably be in a middle price range. I've been out of the Lego game for so long I don't know anything anymore. Family Home, $59.99  Click here for the full 690x515 image. Apple Tree House, $44.99  Click here for the full 690x412 image.

DoktorVerderben posted:I gotta say, I don't get the whole craze for minifigs. I mean yeah some of the ones in those sets are cool, but to me all that falls by the wayside once people want five bucks a piece for them. To me, the real fun in Lego is in the bricks and building things, not in the figures. I agree for the most part. The minifigs are just fun because there's a limited supply of them and because you never know which one you're gonna get. Plus they help add variety and novelty to builds in a way a lot of the regular minifigs don't.

The city stuff is basically all vehicles except big fuckoff police station, big fuckoff fire station, big fuckoff airport, etc. Not to mention those are more playsets than they are models.

PeePot posted:I'm big into getting LEGO versions of actors. It's funny having Harrison Ford, Jake Gyllenhaal(topless), an army of Sean Conneries, and 5 Cate Blanchett's (why not they were a buck each). Pirates means Geoffrey Rush, Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley, and hopefully Jonathan Pryce. If you get a Joker and a Luke Skywalker you will have two Mark Hamills.

I am sick of not being able to get the minifigs. The only place that carries them around here is Toys R Us, and I'm not paying that much for them. I got lucky because Target had series 2 at Halloween.

Finally scored some S3 minifigs. Got 2 K-Feds, 2 Baseballers, an Elf, a Tennis Player, a Hula Girl, and 3 Mummies. I didn't mind a bit about the dupes on the baseballer and rapper, but the 3 mummies kinda blows.

I got a really bad luck streak with my latest minifig haul. 4 loving racecar drivers. What the gently caress am I supposed to do with these? Nobody wants them, so I can't even trade or sell 'em. Plus two more mummies which brings the grand total to 6. At least I got a Blacktron Cyborg.

So I bought Flying Mummy Attack yesterday and I love the plane. Especially the RAF symbols, which caused me to do what I almost never do and actually apply the stickers. But there is one thing that bugs me about it. How is the pilot supposed to see where he is going? It's just a solid wall in front of the cockpit. (I do realize how silly it is to bring up BTW)
