My wife found this at a thrift store yesterday:

*pic*

She paid ten dollars for it.

Well done her! I recently bought two series 16 minifigure bags, hoping to get the babysitter minifigure. I didn't. I got the archer, and the emo dude with a scary storybook. Meh.

Well, this morning, I ordered more bricks for my Alstad Project, and got a book for Dad's Christmas present off Amazon.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that along with the bricks for Alstad, I got the winter town square kit. For no reason. Also, A small storage brick.

Another PF train motor + sides, 4 sets of big red wheels (each bag consisting of 2 flanged + 1 blind), 3 PF extension cables. Well, seems I'll finally start MOCing trains...

Today, My creative supplement box arrived today. Added more to my 0-4-4-0ST. Yes, she looks more like a saddle tank. Probably will get the small train ride set from the official lego store.

Looking for feedback on two partial sets I recently purchased (and if there is a better place to move this to please have one of you wonderful MODs do so).  I bought two 76052 Classic TV Series Batcave sets recently both listed as 'missing minifigures only' from two different people and both were missing the batcycle.  One was also missing about 100 other pieces and I haven't had a chance to go through the second one yet.  I think both may have been legitimately overlooked and both sellers are supposedly doing what they can to find the missing pieces and for now I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. 

Is this common though with this set in particular or just buying 'minifig missing only' sets?  It wouldn't be so bad except that both of them did this and that it's a potentially $10 portion of each set.  Granted, I paid about $140 for both so even if each was missing 500 pieces it'd still be about 3.5 cents a piece.  I typically only buy new and I'm thinking more and more I should stick to this if it is a common occurrence.  Opinions or validation of my annoyance at this is much appreciated. :-)

If you ask me, then I would complain. "Minifigs missing" is just minifigs missing, not whole vehicles absent... Not very fair from the seller. Even if it was a good deal.

Storage is everything. Oh yeah, just ordered a new Gray baseplate, because my original one that I got a long time ago has bended...

Yesterday, ordered a green train window frame and glass for it off brick owl. Alstad is nearly at a stage where she's complete.

EDIT: Saturday was quite a sad day for me. My uncle died, and today I tried to do some voluntary work at the Chippenham RSPCA Charity shop, but a song the radio had on set me off, and found I couldn't continue in that state of mind. So on my way to the bus station, I got two Series 15 minifigure bags, one of them contained the banana guy.
