    So, is the 7946 King's Castle gone?

    So, wonder how long the Joust will stick around for? Maybe it will be one of those one-off orphan sets like the Imperial Flagship?

    Tired of licensed sets

    Not a fan of the licensed themes. I feel that they're taking away from the traditional themes, like Pirates. The SW theme has proven to be a great success for Lego, and I hope they continue even though I have no interest in them. Hopefully the LOTR doesnt kill the Kingdoms theme which is finally getting some new blood.

    New Lego 10223 Kingdoms Joust Exclusive

    Gonna pick this up for my wife once it's readily available. Looking forward to some box art and instructions to get a better feel for the set. I think it will go great with the recently discontinued castle.
  4. Just curious if any of you are planning to buy any Lego for your "significant other" for Christmas. Personally, I picked up Medieval market Village and Mill Village Raid for my wife. Although she supports my Lego addiction, she's not really into my current themes. However, when she was younger, she had alot of sets from the Castle series. (sold off in yard sales long ago) When we visited the Lego store in Toronto, she was really interested in MMV and MVR, so I decided to pick them up. Typically, I buy her a poly bag stocking stuffer as a joke, but this year I'm going all out! I hope they continue to release sets like this so we can share this hobby together

    Discontinuation Speculation

    Just 1....and it's motorized, I'm more focused on the Maersk train and getting stuff for my layout at the moment. I went wayyyy over my lego budget this year and the holiday deal season still isnt over yet.

    I was temped to pick up another EN, but decided against it. Every time I buy a set for investment/trade, I just keep it for myself.

    yea, 177 now. Dropping like flies. Wonder if they automatically go on sale even more when stock drops below 100 units....

    Life and Lego Trains

    I'm also a scuba diver and since I've moved away from the west coast last year, my dive season is pretty much limited to summer months nowadays. Where I live currently is pretty cold in the winter, so I spend alot of time indoors. Lego is a great way to spend my free time. Current temperature here is -10 degrees Celsius (14 Fahrenheit) and that's considered "warm" for this time of year. Not looking forward to sunny and -30.....

    if anyone cares, there's only 179 ENs left on Amazon.com. Seems that they're selling about 100 per day, so if you haven't picked one up yet, this might be your last chance before having to resort to BL and eBay. update, it seems they're selling about 1 per minute, Amazon is going to be sold out very soon.....

    New modular building? 10224 Town Hall

    That would be awesome

    Interesting. I guess we'll have to wait and see what Lego does. Does anyone else find it strange that they released a second starter cargo train (Red) one year after the release of the yellow one?

    New modular building? 10224 Town Hall

    considering people out there will pay $400+ for Green Grocer and insane amounts for Cafe Corner, I'm sure a $200 set will sell

    New modular building? 10224 Town Hall

    Yea, I'm hoping for the Atlantis columns too. I thought the deal with the modular line was that they had to be made with parts from sets currently in production?

    Discontinuation Speculation

    Hard to say for sure, but I'm thinking that the Red Cargo Train is a Toys R Us & Lego limited edition exclusive. I wouldn't be surprised if TRU requested the Red Cargo Train as it has a more recognizable loco style (diesel) than the one in the Yellow Cargo Train set (electric). Just a guess....

    2766 piece Town Hall would be delicious! Lets hope the info is correct.

    Getting started in LEGO Trains - What to buy?

    Good choice on the emerald, it was my second train I picked up. Now get some PF and track !!!

    Black Pearl $57.99 at Costco

    That's a pretty good deal. I'm not a POTC fan and have none of the sets, but I'd probably cave if I came across this deal in store.

    Best LEGO Train Ever Made

    I'm a big fan of the Maersk train, but for me, the Santa Fe series is probably the best train "ever made". I really hope they re-do it as a PF train in the future since I missed it....
