I went to the Orland Park store today in Chicago. They normally have both models on the wall at the same time. They only had the truck. The clerk there indicated to me that the bigger wall stores had the truck, and the smaller stores had the frog. She also said that that was the only model they'd have on the wall for the entire 3 month period. She didn't know if this was how it was going to be going forward, or specific to this one. This model has significantly more pieces (66) then previous ones (avg about 40).

Interesting videos from Beyond the Brick at Brickworld Indy. Tom Atkinson and a walk around the loop, while it wasn't running, and a more in depth look at a few modules. Standard video w/o commentary of the loop -
I grabbed a picture of both of them today in Chicago. At one of the stores I visit, I had an employee specifically mention to me that their store's limit was 3 cups each of any of the PaM parts, which I found to be quite generous, even though I didn't take that much.

Amazon (US) has LEGO Education 9286 4 pack baseplates for $28.68 today. This is a 48x48 light bley, a 32x32 blue, and 2x 32x32 in what appears to be regular green.

My understanding is that Store Managers don't know anything about q2 yet, which is somewhat odd.

By no means is my module proven, but I ended up going with an axle all the way through, 3l liftarms attached to 2l liftarms w/ axle. Based on what i can make out from the video, nothing like he went with. -
My local TRU (Mishawaka, IN) had Halloween Bat (40090) for 3.99 (60% off).

[GBC] Ski Lift

Very nice technique! I just got around to testing this out this evening, and as you said, the slight bend in the tread really holds it on there. Lots of interesting opportunities with this type of connection. -

I'm in process on one at the moment, what in particular did you have an issue with? -

Where the 'chair' connects to the chain link, that is just held on by friction, not locked in? How strong does that connection seem to be? -

Great Lego Sets book - sets question
Prune Face replied to AmperZand's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I'm not sure they'd publish a full listing out there, as they want you to buy the book.That said, if you look at the Amazon listing (atleast the US one, I can't speak for others), there are 7 pictures of inside pages (14). A review at TheBrickFan has some others. See also, a reddit thread on the subject. -
