Sorry for the lack of info, This is being put on by Nicholas’s sister and is still a work in progress. The Venmo link is the only link for outside fundraising for the time being. If a go fund me is made I will be sure to share it.
Welcome to the club! While I am not into bionicle, I also have a large bin of Bionicle parts that came in a bulk lot I purchased. I was planning on taking it to Brick Fair Oaks in an attempt to get rid of some of it, but you are welcome to take a look though it as well.
Welcome to the club! Nice to have another south hills member!
Hamilton Place Apartments in Castle Shannon!
I told you that would be a good location for you! I have a ton of local spots. Castle Shannon was my stomping grounds growing up. Now im only about 10 minutes away from there.
nybody have any advice for removing the panes from windows? Specifically, I’m talking about the 1x2x2 window:
Use the technic axel part of the Brick Separator. That has always worked for me. Just make sure to put the axel in the back end of the window (obviously) and at the top or bottom part of the window pane. If you put it in the middle and apply force it wont work nearly as well.
Welcome to a fellow Mountaineer! Looking forward to meeting and displaying with you! @jrbookworm is also in the Mo-town area
One thing I did find weird was when I logged out of Bricklink I went to Shop.Lego.com and I was still logged in.
This seems to still be the case. I urge everyone to get into the habit of checking both platforms whenever you use one or the other. This also counts if you log into Stud.Io. I logged into the Stud.Io platform and found I was logged into both ShopLego and Bricklink.
I had not noticed that this could be an issue. I need the answer to that also, because I want my VIP points. I last sold on BL in 2008, and after my inventory got deleted out, I made an attempt to relist it all in 2012 (I spent hours and hours on it but only did a fraction of what I have) and never re-opened. Right now it’s now it’s of the lowest priority and isn’t happening anytime soon.
I did some research and based on everything I found it looks like you only loose your VIP points (or the accrual of them) if you are registered as a business seller and not as a private seller. So we should be good
I just went and did mine, I had zero issues. One thing I did find weird was when I logged out of Bricklink I went to Shop.Lego.com and I was still logged in. So be careful of that.
One other thing I am curious on is I am listed as a seller on Bricklink (I made a store years ago but never listed an inventory and Never even opened the store). Do we think I will still earn VIP Points when I make purchases at the LEGO stores? I have heard mixed things on this and I don’t know how to change my status from seller on Bricklink
BrickLover Brad made a short form video of my space fire truck! shared on you tube, Instagram and TikTok!
@greg I appreciate you looking out for me! As much as I would love some of the stuff in there, If I come home with more fire trucks my wife would likely kill me.
My digital attempt.
“That’s my parking space!!”
Okay thats hysterical. Absolutely love it!
Im sure Alexis would love to contribute something. Let me ask her and ill post whatever she comes up with
Welcome to the club! Nice to see another town builder in the mix
Alek, Welcome to the club! Cant wait to see some of your builds.
Hello Tom! Welcome to the Club! I must say, You do have a rather impressive collection! I went through and looked, If you are interested in selling any of the following, I would certainly be interested in discussing prices:
40362- Battle of Endor
10289- Bird of Paradise
70436- Phantom Fire Truck 3000
Disney Series 1 and 2 CMF’sAs far as bringing stuff to the meeting, We dont typically do on the spot selling at meetings, but you are welcome to bring any MOCs or builds to show off, or any rare stuff you have in your collection! You can also use meetings as a place to facilitate sales you made online with members!
I’m personally fine cohabitating with most bugs, as long as they are not biting me.
Agreed. As long as they aren’t poisonous, and don’t bite me or anyone else, I say leave em be
Welcome to the group, Dallas! Your collection set up looks absolutely beautiful!
I believe I have figured out my issueUpdate: I was wrong. @joshhall can we take a look at the issue between the site and uploading photos from a Mobile device? Seems to always be an issue on my end at least. Has anyone else reported having similar issues?
For some reason it is not letting me upload the pictures. Bob, I will send them to you some other way
If there are other photos out there of OUR displays, please post them here, or post a link and I’ll add them to the Gallery! Thanks!!
Completely forgot to do this. I have several and will upload them when I go on break!
I haven’t decided if I will participate or not yet. If I don’t I have no problems Judging.
Just a quick recap (I will submit pictures soon), This was an incredible show. Outside of the Non LUG members that we shared tables with, I think I can speak for everyone when I say it was a great time and we put on a great display. After speaking to Alexis I think we are going to prioritize this event and Brickworld Chicago in 2025. I am hopeful that we can get a stronger LUG presence for both!
Is everyone on Discord and using it? If so, I can start a group for us. If not, we can do a text thread.
I personally haven’t used discord in several months. I can download it on my phone and use it if that is the best decided method of communication. Personally I am in favor of a group text message but I don’t care either way.
Also, what games are everyone participating in? Its weird, Alexis and I got into the same exact games and parts drafts. We are in all 3 rounds of the Putt Putt which I am completely stoked about. We also got put into the Moana boat and the Friends diner parts drafts… I don’t think we will be participating in them.
Question for the masses. I was planning on bringing a smaller cooler for Alexis and I, mostly for the public days. I also have a much larger wheeled cooler that I could bring. Does anyone want me to bring the larger one? Just need to know before Saturday so I can plan on packing it.
