Legocity2713 Posted July 11, 2015 Then wait, same as mine, we still have the Exo Suit. If you wanna catch the points it's a nice deal Don't blame me if they are gone tho Haha, no worries. Thanks for the response. I'll ask how long they expect to have and probably get there the first day of double VIP just scoop it up before anyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted July 11, 2015 Day one purchase for sure. I attempted day one purchase of Exo Suit and Research Institute...sold out before I got a chance. I lucked into the early December release of the RI before it sold out again. After the Exo Suit sold out, I lost interest in it, so not too upset I didn't purchase it. But this is a must have, so I will not risk it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAB Posted July 12, 2015 I reckon this one will be available for some time, given it is a licensed set. It will be interesting to see if it is available in stores other than Lego (like BTTF and Ghostbusters). If so, expect sales and long availability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blondie-Wan Posted July 15, 2015 I get kind of tired of people complaining about some minifigures not using the Woody legs. Why should they? Those are HUGE! They wouldn't look right at all on any minifigure besides Woody or Jessie. I've seen people use ones (painted brown) for Chewbacca, and I have to say they work really well there. I would not at all mind seeing a Chewie with the longer legs (and arms) show up sometime. I agree Sci, i never even understood why those where made! awful 3 studded things... Because those particular characters required them. They're much taller and lankier than Buzz, and would not look as good without them. When do you guys recommend buying the Big Bang set? I kinda want to wait until Double VIP Points in October, do you think that they'll still be around till then? The licensed Ideas sets in general appear to have much larger / longer production runs and availability periods than the non-licensed ones (naturally, since they have the broadest appeal beyond basic LEGO fandom). I expect this set to be around for several months at a minimum, and possibly a year (though I've certainly been wrong many times before). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jern92 Posted July 16, 2015 TBBT page is online on LEGO.com The Netherlands.. http://shop.lego.com...Listing=listing Available from August 1st for €64,95.. NZD110 in NZ. That is really pricey for such a small set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pong0814 Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) I never really paid attention to this set (liked the show, but not enough to get a LEGO set of it), but when I looked at it the other day, I just went from "couldn't care less" to "gotta get it when it first comes out!" With just a few modifications here and there, I can finally create the Pulp Fiction diorama I've been planning to do for the longest time. Most of the parts are already in the set: The couch, the table, the seat, I just have to change the layout of the "study" to turn it into the "kitchen". There's even a door that leads to the "washroom" positioned perfectly just like in the movie! I mean, I could probably get those bricks for cheaper if I just did a pick-a-brick or bricklink, but this is just easier for a lazy guy like me! (Plus, Sheldon's printed Flash shirt is a bonus for me!) Edited July 16, 2015 by pong0814 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silent Nomad Posted July 20, 2015 Does anyone have any ideas for any alternate accessories for the characters that aren't in the set? I already came up with a light blue bladed lightsaber for Leonard, a white flag on a black or brown lightsaber blade piece for Sheldon, maybe a transparent pink brain piece or turtle for Amy, and (to copy someone else's idea) a wine bottle and glass for Penny, but I'm not sure what to give Bernadette. Also, what do you guys think of using this piece for Penny's hair instead of the included piece? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gedren_y Posted July 20, 2015 Leonard's lightsaber is green. That hairpiece looks like the style Penny had when she was making french toast . . . on oatmeal day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silent Nomad Posted July 20, 2015 Well, I'm glad I mentioned that lightsaber color. Any ideas for an accessory for Bernadette? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fred67 Posted July 20, 2015 Maybe a flask or something like that... you know, with some deadly virus in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silent Nomad Posted July 20, 2015 That's what I was suggesting in a conversation with my mom (my parents are really into the show too), since Lego has that erlenmeyer flask piece. She was thinking that could be an option for Amy, because of that scene where Sheldon's working in her lab with her and she has him wash all those beakers and stuff. I still think I like that idea for Bernadette, though, because Amy's more about brains than beakers. Any other ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silent Nomad Posted July 20, 2015 Very cool idea, but I'm trying to be purist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gedren_y Posted July 21, 2015 I'd give Bernadette a reference to her current job. She works on drug development, so a syringe and a petri dish, or pill bottle made of a white 1x1 round brick and a blue 1x1 round plate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silent Nomad Posted July 21, 2015 How do you think the petri dish would be made? Another idea for a pill bottle could be a trans orange 1x1 round brick and a white round tile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
