    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.

    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.

    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

    @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.

    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’s

    As 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

    I believe I have figured out my issue

    Update: 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?

    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.
