The final parcel arrived today, SigFig x2, now complete, at least for now (made it so he can be clean shaven or bearded).

I finally completed my quest for the DFB cmf set today.
After a short rest, I just have to find the Mixels Series 8.
Then I'll be ready to buy some big sets.

I should have just posted my 27% joke in the Predictions Thread ;)

We don't have [email protected] here so no free fountain. Curently there is a local TRU roadshow going on whereby free gifts were given with min $100 worth of purchase (~USD75). I think this has to be one of the better promos in years!

So my purchase is as below:



And the free gifts are:

@Recce I like #40110 Coin Bank a lot; its a cute little build, and the robber will soon be paying a visit to my #10251 Brick Bank :-)

I've previously bought a few of the coin bank set, but more for the purpose of parting out :)

I wish I got 40110 when [email protected] had it on sale, as I like banks and don't want to get the modular yet. I'm quite a dog person, so 31044 caught my eye. I didn't want the ducks, and decided on another set. I might get the set some other time. Most of the model is the dog anyway, and I could sell the duck parts.

brumey

also digging #40110 . got it last year with double promo.

@Adzbadboy, check out XXXVII (Mark 37) Hammerhead & XXXIX (Mark 39) Starboost, look familiar? Don't they look a lot like the Iron Man armours in #76048 & #76049.

@VorpalRyu Damn it! Now I have to purchase those too...

had a little blabber with  my local toy stores boss.
from lego they only get the amount of the pre-year +2%

he will reserve the next minifigure box for me. and maybe get a DFB box of 60 again.

Speedman29

Quiet on the LEGO front for me for a while. Still waiting on the Technic 911 GT3 that I ordered on June 1st to be back in stock. Has anyone who ordered one from [email protected] had theirs yet?

Sorry!! I looked this up to check a fact for the Marvel Matters Podcast on Youtube. Still think their collectable epp was one of their best. <3 
But yeah, sorry Lol @VorpalRyu wants to get them also, if that makes you any feel better?

VorpalRyu

@xiahna, you mean I got them, it's only two of the three latest Spider-Man sets I need now....& the Dr Strange set....& the new Civil War set they haven't released yet....for the moment (waiting for the next TLG Marvel set announcements).

xiahna

^so in other words... you want them.
O wait, I get your point! Yes you are correct. To be fair I am on some killer pain meds right now...

^Good time for some creative Lego building!

I misread the top quote as "You need to change your phone." I've been trying to work out what in the screenshot revealed @Pitfall69's phone was out of date ever since! Oops. In any case, I think 27% at 7:08 is fine. My phone has a good 5 hours left in it at 27%...

Hope you're feeling a bit better now @xiahna - @VorpalRyu told us you might have had appendicitis. Seeing you back online is a good sign!

Nice round number: let's have a 1K party! @Pitfall69 notice the minutes ;)



Sausages/hot dogs for everyone!

Congratulations @snowhitie on reaching the 1K. Must also say thank you as it was your like on the bendybadger draw this week that got me to the 1K Mark as well

Got my Lego Wonders book in the post today! Quite tempted to make a Sphinx...

nexander

Decided I really want to get most of the rebels sets. Only got to get the funds for the new sets and figure out how I'm going to get the ghost and phantom. Suspect I might have to trade some of my others sets. My slightly squashed but new at-at may have to go :(

JudgeChuck

We have a bit of an odd arrangement on Saturdays chez Judge Chuck, in that my other half tends to go shopping twice; once to the supermarket and another trip up into the town centre and she tries to take each of our twin daughters, separately, on each trip.
This means that we each get some 1 on 1 time, which is lovely.
Anyway, after all that preamble, I spent a great day making a bead necklace and rebuilding Final Flight of Destiny's Bounty with each daughter in turn. LEGO + daughters / sons = Happy Dad.
Happy Father's Day to all Dads tomorrow! :-)

tallblocktoo

Sounds like a great day @JudgeChuck.  Happy Father's Day to you as well!

Happy Fathers Day to all the dads here - hope you're all being spoiled rotten!

Managed to call into the Lego store at Leeds today to see the new Porsche and Big Ben in person - very impressed! 
Nearly picked up the Detectives Office until the girlfriend insisted I buy it online instead of walking round Leeds with a big Lego bag..

.....^ you didn't listen to her, did you?

Happy Father's Day to all the great dads out there!!! (US) Have a great day!!!

@SamJ - I didn't see Big Ben at Leeds today - how could I have missed it? I did have a glance at the Porsche though - it was getting a lot of attention!

They have it set up behind the hoth base to the left. It's a lot bigger than I thought, just wish I had somewhere to display it

Started making a new entry for the Disney contest. This has involved digging through my half-sorted crates, which was really fun... I mean, it's far from ideal to have everything that's not a minifig, a brick brick or a plate mixed up together, but it does produce epic childhood nostalgia.

I didn't realize that many countries have adopted the US date for Father's Day. My bad :( I hope everyone that was celebrating had an awesome day :)

Home and resting after a fabulous four days at Brickworld Chicago. Three people from my LUG won MOC awards and I scored a Palace Cinema in the raffle. Already thinking about next year.

Speedman29

Woke up yesterday morning to my daughter handing me the City ambulance plane set, which was a nice little treat we built together.

Also got an email back from CS after questioning the increasing delay in getting my 911...

Dear Steve,

Thanks for getting in touch with us.

We’re happy to know you’re excited about the LEGO® Technic 42056 Porsche 911 GT3 RS and I'm sorry the status of the order keeps on changing.

Due to the way the box of the set is put together, we’ve found that there’s an increased risk of the box being damaged during shipping. We weren’t aware of this until very recently. Since we always want LEGO fans to have the very best, high-quality experience with any of our products, we’ve made the decision to postpone online sales temporarily.

The delay is solely due to the possible damage the box may receive during shipping and is in no way due to any issues with the model. You can find the LEGO Technic Porsche set at LEGO Stores currently. We’re working really hard on improving the packaging to make it available to buy online again as soon as we can.

We’re very sorry for any inconvenience or disappointment this has caused. You should receive the LEGO® Creator 40221 Fountain with your order.

Steve, please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help!
