What did you buy today?

Recommended Posts

I don't know if it really counts as "buying," but I cashed in a load of VIP points and walked out of the store with two copies of the LOTR Black Gate (79007), a Lone Ranger Stagecoach (79108) and they threw in a free hot dog stand (40078) and I didn't (technically) spend a dime. Even better, I still have $10 in VIP points on my card for my next trip.

I suppose one wants to split hairs, they were "bonus" kits, not "free" kits as I seem to recall spending a fair amount of money to get those VIP points in the first place - but it still feels like getting something for nothing when you "cash" them in.

Added a 8066 to the collection for only € 3,-. It is complete including box. The parents told me that the kid unpacked it, looked at it put some pieces together thought it was to hard and returned it into the boxing.

Nice pickup, I have it too, what price did you get it for?

I bought the galaxy squad galatic titan, the Lord of the Rings pirate ship ambush and two of the castle battle packs. That galatic titan is just huge and impressive and the pirate ship ambush reminds me of the troll warship. Two very great sets in my opinion. I also got the free hotdog cart polybag.

Finally got 76002 Metropolis Showdown; I wish Superman's cape was a little darker but other than that it's a great set.

9472 Attack on Weathertop: I like this one alot more than I thought I would. The minifigures are very nice and the Weathertop looks amazing. I brought it since I find it for 20% off.

60026 Town Square: This is a must have for City collectors. You get two fantastic buildings, a bus, a crane and lots of other small vehicles.

375 Castle. Finally. And the condition is just stunning, looks like it was always kept as a set and greatly loved. Instructions incredible, stickers barely frayed and even the sticker sheet was there still with four left on it.

So, so happy today. Now all I need is a worthy box.

6 down, 10 more to go. I'm sure I can manage that before the end of August and the wider release of Series 11 (which arrives in European LEGO Stores, but not general retailers, in a mere 4 days in my timezone).

Grogall said in the Series 11 topic that Series 11 will be released in European brand stores and on S@H on August 1st. He's a very reliable source, so it's more or less safe to say that he is correct.

*EDIT* 200th post!
