I may take a trip to the LEGO Store tomorrow, but not sure if it's really worth the drive.
This has been a fun thread though!

But we can hopefully but the rest the premature rumors that Alien Conquest and PotC are on the way out. They aren't.

Or they'll be sitting on eBay and Amazon for a LONG time... Easy to bite, 50 of them are only $343.10, that sounds affordable, until you consider that is affordable to everyone. Watch, they'll be $9.99 with free shipping after the new year on Amazon.
That will net you about $6 after all is said and done, which is LESS than these will cost you now. Avoid this one at all costs... I didn't buy a single one of them...
3843 - Ramses Pyramid (x12 @ $3.98/ea)
- excellent parts for this price, need the tan baseplates for desert MOC
853176 - Mummy Battlepack (x5 @$3.48/ea)
- love the flying mummys, but will probably resell later
3847 - Magma Monster (x2 @ $3.48/ea)
- needed a couple more orange base plates for lava scene, which go for about $2.50 on Bricklink
7040 - Alien Striker (x1 @ $3.98/ea)
- I didn't have a sealed one of these yet for my AC collection. Just need UFO Abduction and the Walker now.
5000030 - Kendo Jay Booster Pack (free)
- Kids will enjoy this one
Paying for shipping sucks, but I don't need to visit the store now.
The other deals I had to buy 2 or 4 of at a time using BOGO or other deals, so until the stuff showed up it never felt like much, but boy, putting 99 items in your card is strange...
Now what am I going to do with them? Haven't a clue, maybe I'll have one monster baseplate collection! :)
I'm just saying, to anyone who thinks it is a "deal", keep in mind how much space 99 of those take up, plus you talk about "parting them out"... I don't know about you, but that is absurd in my view, my time is worth WAY too much to be doing that, either sell them as a complete box or don't bother...
It is peanuts, at some point you're working a minimum wage job, or worse, with stuff like that. But you probably know that already. :)
Now this pig of a site will not let me use my VIP points...
I removed the set I added and it still allowed the use of VIP points....
I got a few Police cycles and a few Pyramid sets for the baseplates... It is a shame to dismantle all of those sets for a baseplate especially the Game boxes...
Im guessing a LOT of people will be listing those game pieces on BL and eBay.. I guess the good news is if you are using the game and lose a game piece it will be easy to get another :-)
I only spent just over $75 to get the Kendo Jay.
Funny, tonight's order is already sitting in "customer service", it seems that every one of my orders ends up that way these days...
Grr...
Oh well if I do not get them.. it is not the end of the world.. would have been nice for the baseplates though
This has been the case ever since I got caught in the eBay scam of stolen credit cards, every order I place goes to customer service. They end up clearing it and shipping it, but it takes a week or so. PITA...
Hopefully given some time, that might change. Or it won't, who knows...
AT-OT is sold out everywhere that I know of, I haven't see it since Black Friday. Tantive IV has been on sale at various price points for weeks on Amazon, I picked up 5 of them for $101 with shipping a week or so ago.
Oh well, at least they have them to replace...
will not buy anything...at least from lego website :)
10198 - Tantive IV - 60€
7189 - Mill Village Raid - 46€
10222 - Winter Village Post Office - 38€
10199 - Winter Toy Shop - 32,5€
10216 - Winter Village Bakery - 31€
10215 - Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter - 30€
7985 - City of Atlantis - 46€
8052 - Container Truck - 42€
5893 - Offroad Power - 42€
Don't dismantle the game boxes! They are great storage for baseplates and models. I used them to transport several City Vehicle models to a museum display I LUG NY has set up in Connecticut. The games boxes are the best. My friend told me you can even turn them inside out and fold them together and the other side is plain white.
The stores have been open for over 2 hours now, I was expecting lots of reports of people with sacks full of 50% reduced exclusives :)
I'm assuming it will go on sale simultaneously on all the sites, but I'm wondering if a time was announced. I wanna go to bed. : )
