What are you buying right now ?

RogerKirk · October 2016

I'd been putting off getting the Pet Shop for a while now. But since it's now marked as retiring soon, we've agreed it can be a Christmas present from my wife. So the order's gone in this evening!

SprinkleOtter · October 2016

Good morning at my not-very-local LEGO Store. They had a bunch of damaged box Disney Castles with $50 of VIP points off. They might have more if @SumoLego cared and hasn't already gotten a dozen from his other sources ;)

More Christmas presents shopping for nieces/nephews this weekend:

#75122 General Grievous is for me though, as my first constraction set. Will find out whether it is my gateway drug into the constraction range...
Both City sets are for myself as well; previously my most recent garbage truck was 1987's #6693...

Bumblepants · October 2016

Got started with Christmas shopping as Ninjago has buy 2 get them both 30% off deal going on locally. Pretty much amounted to a free Raid Zeppelin alongside the Misfortune Keep. Looking forward to the many ninja-pirate conflicts coming to our home!

josekalel · October 2016

Got #31052 Vacation Getaway with Target, it's just a matter of picking it up today...and I might try to build it, so that I can have another vehicle in my town.

SumoLego · October 2016

Bah. @SprinkleOtter

JooTog · October 2016

Have not found anything in Katy, TX yet; but ordered #60103 Airport Air Show from Amazon and had it ship to my office back home.

Tempted to order a third #31052 Vacation Getaways to build the house.

dspigel · October 2016

They arrived today.

I envy you...been wanting to get #60051 but I've been hoping it could go lower in price than it is currently at Amazon (since it says it's been lower before).

stlux · October 2016

Following my order of 100 2x2 grey tiles last month, I ordered 300 more from PAB to really get a proper pavement going for my city... Next month I'll probably decide I need to order 500 more :p

Briking · October 2016

@dspigel Your wallet will hate you forever more. Now you'll just have to get PR, DO and BB as well. And AS in the new year. And then make a start on Bricklinking the retired models...!

Welcome to the dark side!

historical · October 2016

I caved and bought the pet shop as my christmas present. I was going to wait until black friday for the snowglobe, but if it sold out before then, I would regret it. This is my first one.

I have wanted the modular buildings since they came out when I was starting college, but never purchased due to college expenses at the time. have accepted the fact that the retired ones will never be in my price range, so I figured the pet shop is a good start :)

MegtheCat · October 2016

I am working on getting 8 BL orders paid for so I can build my Johnny 5. I bought the PDF when it was first available but lacked the money to buy the parts until now. I decided to limit the store selection to North America to hopefully cut down on the shipping time.

Also, while not buying it myself, I am trying to convince my Dad that he should buy me LEGO for my birthday this Thursday. Or at least give me the cash to buy it myself.

I know what you mean! I plan on getting the DO before the end of the month. I might as well cash in on the double points.

sid3windr · October 2016

Got 2 Brick Banks and a City Advent calendar for myself this morning; Friends Advent Calendar for my daughter, too. Going to feel up some more banana guy CMFs tonight, I think.

josekalel · October 2016

Just ordered #21108 Ecto-1 from Amazon (still deciding whether to get the one from the new movie), along with the Akro Mils organizer...I missed on getting the Garbage truck and it went $5 up in price :(.

chrisalddin · October 2016

LOL! I did exactly the same thing about a week ago... Foolishly, I didn't do my (very basic) sums and work out how many I actually needed to cover 4 road baseplates, so a second order went in last night... :-)

One thing that I did get right was to order the extra parts to make up a few additional trees, the same as the ones outside the DO, and also for two benches. I've got plenty of lamp posts, so they went up a few days ago. :-)

Once all that is done, I need to start on the park, based around two of the #40221 Fountain polybags, one using the male and one the female figure.

stlux · October 2016

And now I need trees. And benches...

khmellymel · October 2016

I just bought #41129 after having not bought any small sets (minus CMFs) for ages... I feel guilty for breaking my self imposed no small set rule. But... Hot Dog stand! How could I resist???

josekalel · October 2016

#60118 Garbage Truck went back to under $15, so i got it, along with #60081 Pickup Tow Truck...more vehicles for my town.

dspigel · October 2016

I bought the NRG dragon since it was $31 on Amazon.

:-)

I just duplicated the small bench that is outside the Parisian Restaurant for the time being, but made it 6 studs wide, as opposed to only 4.

VaderFan2187 · October 2016

Bought 75139 Battle on Takodana not long ago. Got 30305 for free with it :-D

Don't have PR yet, but checked the instructions online and will add those parts to my next PAB order :)
For trees, do you use the ones from DO/FB?

HugeYellowBrick · October 2016

3 orders, 3 free 24-in-1 Christmas Builds, 3 free Parrots, 3 free catalogues and 2 sets of stickers

stlux · October 2016

Very jealous of the stickers! None came with my TLG parcel today :(

stlux · October 2016

Originally only wanted #75904 Mystery Mansion and #75902 Mystery Machine, but have now finally caved in and ordered the rest of the Scooby-Doo sets as well...

dspigel · October 2016

So this is how my wife let me know my #5002947 Admiral Yularen arrived.

She's awesome.

Fauch · October 2016

you're?

Legogram · October 2016

Picked up #10246 Detective's Office, #40203 Halloween Vampire for 4.99, a couple of Christmas Ornaments, #5001622 Store Employee minifigs, and a couple of keychains before dbl points ran out. Didn't find anything interesting in the PAB, but the minifig 3 packs had solid mint green and pale blue legs (sorry, I don't know official color names). In the accessories, they had the statuette that looks like what the movie star cmf has, as well as the lasso for the cowgirl. Also got a 24 in 1 set, since the store still had a few left.

stlux · October 2016

Used the current Amazon UK discounts to buy #75913 F14 T & Scuderia Ferrari Truck and #41133 Amusement Park Bumper Cars. That's me all set for Lego-related Christmas gifts this year for my nieces. Nephews already all set since last week, so now all Lego shopping for the rest of the year will be exclusively for me, myself and I! :)

I couldn't help but jump straight to that too.

ryjay · October 2016

Almost bought the Friends Advent Calendar to get the bowling ally........but then didn't.

asrfarinha · October 2016

Got me a second 76052. Way over my "allowance" for October...

MrJ_NY · October 2016

Just had to ship my Brick Bank back to Lego since they put my 24 in One set on top & it put a huge crease in the front of BB box. (sigh)

ryjay · October 2016

@asrfarinha...do you like that set as a whole or are you just after pieces of it?

sid3windr · October 2016

Caved early on the TBBT and Pet Shop sets due to the announcement of them being retired on November 2nd... Good thing I made a budget and am keeping to it *ahem*

asrfarinha · October 2016

ryjay said:

It's mostly for the pieces and to take advantage of a decent enough deal on Smyths.

josekalel · October 2016

Went to yet another Walmart and found #70604 Tiger Widow Island; I'm not a Ninjago fan but I liked the way the set looks in the box, so I got it at $25.

I also got #70334 Ultimate Beast Master since it was $3.

MrJ_NY · October 2016

60115 4 x 4 Off Roader - Went to TRU for the Frankenstein free build with my grandson and made them pricematch Target $12.39 - TRU shelf price was 24.79

Retirement announcement? It's on backorder right now, to ship no later than 2nd Nov with [email protected] UK. Are you saying there's one more run?

mmozzano · October 2016

Well the plan was to pickup the Yellow Submarine and get it signed by the Designer at the Liverpool store but I turned up around 11.30 and they had already sold out. Not to worry I used the money to buy Dimensions for the PS4 (with Supergirl) and 3 fun packs.

Happy with that.

It was announced to be retired on 2/11 on zusammengabaut.com together with a few ideas sets (EU ony?). Not sure of the accuracy, but I wasn't going to risk it ;)

TheBigLegoski · October 2016

Just ordered my personal most expensive set ever from [email protected] with double VIP (a whopping 659) points. I was not planning on buying such an expensive set, but since it will retire soon, instead of buying the Parisian Restaurant, or the other soon to be retired sets: Ghost Busters Ecto One ideas set, and maybe Wall-E, I choose to get the Sand Crawler
#75059

Ever since it came out I wanted this set, but it is really expensive, and I kept putting it off because of that. Now I thought: it is now or probably never! Even though it is actually really in excess of my budget. Having gone somewhat bezerk ordering this, I won't be buying anything else for the coming time.

It also means I probably will not ever get the Ecto One set, and will probably cross that Ghost Busters headquarters set of my wish list either. What is the point of buying that set, IF I can afford it, and IF I don't have the car to go along with it (I am not all that interested in the other GB car from the new movie). Don't know if it makes sense to other people as that huge GB headquarter set is just epic, but I can't collect everything anyway, and I am not, or have ever been a huge GB movies and/or cartoon series fan. So I am happy with my choice to get another SW set to add to my ever growing SW Lego collection.

ps.
It will also come with set #40222, a very nice bonus.

Good choice, but I don't think you'll be able to follow through with that...

BuriedinBricks · October 2016

For those interested, the LEGO store at downtown Disney in Florida has Temple of Airjitzu back in stock at 50% off. They have 8...well, 7 now ;)

sweetness34 · November 2016

I picked up the Beatles set this morning and got the tin soldier ornament.

I did the same. It is fun getting a set on the first day it is released
