Or, if you like to live dangerously…
What the heck am I looking at? Is this real life? Or are they just trying to take my money and run?!
Fingers crossed. I got Pet Shop last Summer because I thought that would be next to go. How foolish of me. Got sick and fell off the face of the earth, to come back and find Pet Shop still in circulation and Town Hall gone. Great.
I know TRU is much better about matching prices, now. Will they price match AND give you the sale price?
NO I DIDN’T
I put it off. I didn’t know what to add for $40. I procrastinated, contemplated getting the Research Lab CUUSOO. Before I knew it, they were backordered on the Exo Suit until the 18th. I decided to bite the bullet and pay the $6 shipping, because I just want the damn thing. I got the order in right before they pulled it from the website, but I have no indication of when it’ll ship out and I got an email saying that if there’s a problem, customer service will contact me. I might be out of luck. Hurray for indecision!
Hannah, I’m sure we can work something out! If you have any Fantasy Era trolls, or extra CMFs, The LEGO Movie mini figures, or even a small set or something that I’m interested, I’d swap. Or cash. Cash works quite well, too. 😉
If Chris Pratt is to be believed, he’ll have a third minifigure in short order. He let slip in a recent radio interview that LEGO is making Jurassic World LEGO sets, and he approved his figure.
Thanks, Josh. It’s only letting me order one. Probably because early demand was so incredibly high. 🙁
Greg, I’ll be happy to get them for you if you trust me with such a task. I know I haven’t met any of you, yet, so I understand any trepidations you might have. We’re going on the 19th of this month, so it’ll be after the meeting.
I’m still looking for help, but as I mentioned earlier, I think there’s probably a limit on the number of suits that can be included in a single order. If I can do four in one, that would certainly solve my problem.
That might work, but word on the street is LEGO might be severely limiting the number of EXO Suits one customer can order at a time because of limited quantities. That’s why I’m unsure of I’ll be able to get two. But if we can add three to a cart, I’ll snag you one.
All I could think of was a LEGO Futurama game.. Combining spacey and city stuff in one license/game. But the show is cancelled, so it’s really unlikely.
So, my Jor-El is still available, if anyone is interested. Yet. COME ON!!
But I’m bumping this thread because I recently stumbled upon a Flashback Shredder promotional figure, so that’s also up for grabs.
Any way they can get the SCLUG part to look like a bridge? Any depiction of the city should have a bridge, right..? I really like it, otherwise!
Wow, Greg. Thanks for checking that out. I’d definitely take 100 of them for 17 cents apiece, if they’re actually still there. I’d be more than happy to fill the void with 1×1 and 1×2 translucent plates, pending availability. It all hinges on that, right?
As an aside, I’m headed to King of Prussia early in August. Looks like this one updated just a couple weeks ago on BrickBuildr. If anyone needs anything, let me know.
Greg, I’d keep your day job. Unless you were joking, in which case, quit your day job and become a stand-up comedian. That post was hilarious.
Well, an obvious extension of the LEGO Video Game series is The Simpsons, but I’m not a huge fan of that license, personally. And I’m sure that’s already in the works.
I LOVE the LEGO games – finished 100%’ing The Hobbit on PlayStation 4 a few weeks ago and I’m in the midst of playing PotC on PS3 – so this is an exciting proposal. Imma think on it a bit.
Hey, Dac. I’ve written for a few video game websites in my day, as well, but mostly on a smaller scale – like RPGFan, RPGamer, Games Are Fun, etc. Where were you an editor? And with what import video game retailer are you associated? I’ve probably ordered from you more than a few times.
Nice to have you on board!
If anyone spots that recent Castle theme King’s Castle around $70 or $80 (or cheaper, obviously) anywhere, including Amazon, I’d appreciate a heads-up.
Is anyone still collecting these? I made my first LEGO purchase since my surgeries in July, got five CMF from the (awesome) movie. None of them are dupes, but I still have a bunch that I’d like to get. In case of doubles or anything, I’d be willing to trade or unload. I’m probably well behind the curve on this, but I thought I’d check and see. Additionally, it’s a good start to getting active on here again. 🙂
If anyone sees a super cheap Goblin Kjng set available, I’d appreciate it if you could forward it my way. Either pick it up and id supply cash at time of exchange, or let me know where it is quickly so I can scoot to acquire it myself. That’s the only piece in Hobbit or LotR (except poly bags), that I haven’t grabbed yet, and I’d like to before it’s too late. I consider 40% to 50% off to be pretty cheap, in Case anyone’s wondering. :B
Thanks!Thanks, Josh. I’ll take you up on your offer. I’m in Bethel, too, so we can swap out at a time that’s convenient for you. The Village Square Toys R Us had a couple new boxes when I went, but I know everyone’s selling through them very fast. They weren’t in the LEGO aisle, on the side cap display where some Series 9 figs are still on display, but rather, just in their packaging in the checkout aisles. Not a bad idea for such an alluring impulse buy, and I think maybe they’re trying to dissuade customers from feeling them up too much.
Nah, I like to build the stuff I get. I’m not really into investing. I keep it in great shape. I’m sure once Grand Emporium retires, even an open, complete set with box and instruction would fetch a handsome price… If I decided to go that route. Particularly with the modulars, I enjoy building them because I feel like there are some really cool techniques that I can incorporate in MOCs.
There are some authentic Hulk minifigures on eBay, running around $25. I think I’ll just grab one, and if no one on here shows interest, I’ll put Jor-El up. He’s going for $20 – $22, so it’ll essentially come out in a wash. I’m okay with that. And yes, Hulk on cake would be AMAZING. But that might be pushing it. 😉
