    SWMBO says to walk around barefoot, you'll soon find them.........Don't ask how she knows.........
    I can just imagine how she knows ... probably the same reason I work barefoot when I am building! The only one important enough to replace is the helmet and that can wait until some day when I am ordering parts anyway.

    @GrannyLEGO, aw, that's awful.
    A small order came today, containing the Groom Brickheadz, Valentine's Bear, Sports Xtra bag, and new Botanical Accessories.(weird that the first one is still going, too.)

    I have introduced my wife and son to bricklink.  I may regret that.  She has just completed her first mod (cherry blossom treehouse) with the aim to move to mocs.  I can see this being a tad expensive in future!

    That sweet relief when you finish another mini figure series (DC).

    Lego is drunk. I placed two pick a brick orders. First I received that the item was shipped and then later on I received an email that there was an issue with my payment option. I called when I got these emails on the first order and Lego told me there was no issue

    Just got #80105 delivered from Lego and one whole bag 1 is missing. This has never happened to me before, thankfully. I called customer service and they are sending out the missing bag but apparently it's coming from Denmark - aaaahhhhh! Two to three more weeks! Sorry, just had to vent.

    Built #75972 today, and #75973 yesterday, and I've never played Overwatch aside from a free trial my friends wanted me to play,(wasn't my thing, I like strategy, racing, Disney Infinity), but both have hugely useful pieces. No one on the internet has attempted Evil Doctor Porkchop's ship from TS3, so the pink mech looks like it has provided useful parts, the gray one has hinges useful for Baymax, the truck can easily be converted to an old road/rail truck, and the building in 75972 reminds me of architecture in PotC. So, I'm really glad I got those on sale.

    Bit of a mix at the moment. I bought Carousel in 2017 and hoped to build it that year. Other sets and things came before it and now its retired and seemingly going up in value. Do I hold on to it and build it or do I sell it? Same with Temple of Airjitzu. I've never really thought of the idea of selling retired sets I intended to build but it seems they are going up in price. The urge to hold on and then sell it to buy more lego is quite tempting.

    Build it. I always wonder the same thing, and realize if I sell it and it's retired, I won't get it again. Hi, #10194! (Didn't sell mine, but it's an example of one that always comes to mind.)

    I'm going to the LEGO store at MOA to spend $70 in VIP points. They've accumulated since the program changed last summer. At the time, I tried to log in to VIP, but couldn't. Today I had no trouble except having to reset my password. Trolls Caterbus, here I come! (That thing is just so cute!)

    Got a Pink Elephant today, along with two other interesting figs. Got a Year of the Rat torso and the one with that funky looking artistic design. Not much for accessories though, got a rat, printed taco dish and magnifying glass. All out of Halloween exclusive parts I'm afraid.

    Well, this Arctic set with the mammoth really is very nice. Lots of great details (proper snowshoes!), some very nice parts in trans blue that you don't see every day, and I love the navy and orange parts, which look great together. And the mammoth himself is just delightful...

    Had to look it up but I agree ... nice looking set for sure!

    Anxiously waiting to thread the needle of betting the new Donald/Goofy BHz between my work schedule and scheduled trip to Disneyland. I've considered waiting to buy them at the Downtown Disney Lego Store, but don't want to risk missing them on either side.

    Thinking LEGO should pick Animal Crossing for their next Video Game licensed theme. It's popular, family friendly, reminiscent of Fabuland and could introduce a plethora of new head sculpts for interesting customs.

    Sure it won't happen though.

    I'd like that too, but also can't imagine LEGO doing it, which is a shame when you consider how well the franchise fits LEGO's values!

    Had my first ever missing part yesterday - one of the flexi tubes from #41373 - which was annoying as not something I have spares of lying around.  Replacement requested online so hopefully it will shortly arrive without further trouble.

    WizzAir just announced plans to fly to Billund from Sofia 2x a week starting in June. I can finally get to the Lego House super cheap and quick!

    I went to the Lego store a couple of days ago. Got a couple of exclusive sets like the Bookshop, ISS and Dinosaur skeletons. Plus got my Year Of The Rat set.
    One thing I did see was the Creator Mini London Bus. Was that a UK exclusive or was it sold world over? Or are we just lucky getting it finally? It must have been quite old. It was advertising the Creator Big Ben set that has long been retired.

    ^ I ended up with three of the mini buses. Built one, gave one away, and still have one unopened- the box is copyright 2016. Interesting that there's still some around.

    I just wonder how a giveaway set from 4 years ago ends up in Australia now.

    I think they just made too many. I went to 10 or 11 different Lego Stores this past Fall all over the eastern and central US and several of them had an overabundance of this set.

    The wife signed her and I up for the building event on the 11th. It's just a little bear with a heart for Valentine's Day but either way, its free parts :) Plus, we'll have fun building it.

    I have to stop looking at other people's MOCs on social media, I keep seeing 'new' old parts I realise I don't have & find there's plenty of them on BrickLink for cheap...

    Checks FB, new posts in Brick Mecha & LEGO Space Classic.

    "Those tyres look useful," checks BL, adds all three colours to a want list.

    "That part would be perfect for build x or y," checks BL, adds four colours to a want list.

    Two new pos...

    I finally have enough Donalds to MOC Daisy, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Scrooge, Darkwing, and Launchpad. I built a Donald(to keep as Donald) and Goofy and Pluto. Oh, and Casey Jr. is still chugging towards 1000! I need to finish his tent...

    Still waiting on Walmart to get the new polybags. They haven’t updated stock in a long time. That said they have a fair amount of LM2 polybags just hanging around.
  • eMJeeNLeMJeeNL Member Posts: 781
    just just got an e-mail the #60204 i ordered at Amazon 31-12 FINALLY shipped. Wonder where they got it from, as it has been out of stock at Amazon DE, UK, FR and IT ever since...

    Looking forward to going to Legoland Windsor on Sunday for BrickWeek. Unfortunately the weather doesn’t look great but I had an email from Lego giving me free tickets to visit again for a future date. 2 trips for £20 initial spend. Can’t complain!

    The little guys look so happy to have big brothers. I am not particularly a fan of either Brickheadz or space stuff but I must admit I love these guys and the way @KungFuKenny has set them up!

    Kmart is now stocking #60233 Donut Shop Opening for AU$79, which is half price for us, so we had to grab it (it was on the list, especially since the donut is big enough to do that scene from Iron Man 2). While we were there, I bit the bullet & grabbed #21156 Creeper & Ocelot, I wasn't going to do the Minecraft BigFigs, but I decided who wouldn't want a giant Creeper to keep them company in their office.

    Yeah the big creeper is great.

    Got an old City Arctic polybag free with purchase from Hobbyco yesterday. That makes it older 2 sets in about 2 weeks I've come across.
