    REVIEW: 3300002 Holiday Set 2 of 2

    Going to rant for a bit here ... Nothing annoys me more than people making judgement calls without all the information. Don't blame scalpers and resellers for inability to obtain this set. Lego made a coding error back when the first set was being sold that allowed people to buy as many as this second set as they wanted from S@H. This lasted less than one day, but everyone that ordered (not me) received their sets. I know of people that ordered 25+ of this set and got all of them ($10 apiece). 1.) If Lego hadn't made the error, there would have been thousands of these left for this three day sale. 2.) Even though Lego made the error, they didn't HAVE to ship these sets - they could have cancelled all of them due to a website error. Next time get off your high horse and do some research. If you're going to blame someone, blame Lego.
  2. Added a bunch of stuff, sold a bunch of stuff and updated the list. Finally completed the inventory on 4504, so added that as well. That's all I'll be adding for quite a while, other than select minifigs.

    Limited Edition Lego Christmas Vignette 1/2 2/2

    I have two copies of the first set in hand and two copies of the second on the way. Assuming Lego didn't run out before they shipped my orders, I'd be willing to sell one of each at a reasonable price to a Eurobricks member.

    New Lego 10223 Kingdoms Joust Exclusive

    Well, the cows are popular pieces, although there were two per set and the sets only cost ~$100, not $150. So, if you figure relative rarity of the barding is three times that of a cow (given the cost and # differences), I'd estimate Bricklink prices will start ~$20 and stabilize around $15 per barding. On the other hand, the lion barding in 7946 can be had for ~$4, so that would intimate ~$6 for the joust barding. However, I think we can all agree the price will be considerably higher than that.
  5. Indeed. Actually, according to my tracking information, they were delivered on Wednesday.
  6. Eldorado Fortress and Lagoon Lock-Up should reach you soon. Have fun!

    Lucky LEGO finds

    Actually, more than likely the clearance prices have already been through the system and they are BACK to full price. IE, you were too late.
  9. Sold three sets, added 10175 and several POTC minifigs. Edit: And the 10175 is sold already.

    Lucky LEGO finds

    I purchased 90 polybags yesterday at Target for $0.39 apiece. 51 ninjas, 21 fire helicopters and 18 Atlantis subs. I left plenty of helicopters for someone else...

    2011 Xmas target giftcard Legoset

    No story ... I bought 90 polybags at Target yesterday for $0.39 apiece. 51 ninjas, 21 fire helicopters and 18 Atlantis subs. I paid for them using the Christmas giftcards. Free and cheap Lego for the win!
  12. Sold two more sets and will be adding 10175 and 4504 once I complete inventory on them.

    2011 Black Friday Thread

    This is from the Holiday book (prices good starting end of Oct), not Black Friday sales. I got the book last week.
  14. I can't PM you, since you don't have 10 posts yet, but I have series 3 and 4 available at MSRP, and also a full set of series 2, along with some extras of each series, plus a few assorted series 1. Let me know if you're interested. Thanks.

    Winter Village Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    ??? The sets are from previous years. The theme started in 2009 with the Toy Shop, continued last year with the Bakery and this year's set is the Post Office. There is one per year. The holiday train, while not officially part of this theme, was released in 2007 and goes nicely with this too! 2012: I'd like to see a small house, or grotto.

    A Guide to building a Medieval Village

    Well, since these people didn't read your instructions in the title of the thread (guide only, no comments) and it's already messy, I'll just point out someone needs to figure out a better solution for these guides. Perhaps so you can lock your thread whenever you'd like, so comments can be avoided... In any case, I'm sure there is a better solution out there than strictly relying on people's reading comprehension. EDIT: In other words, I am really enjoying the guide. Edit again: This was moved from the other thread, along with a half dozen other posts...nice job mods!
  18. More sets sold, prices lowered!

    Looking For...

    I don't quite understand what you're saying here. Are you saying you only want to buy from those in Seattle, or at Brick Con? Or, are you saying that after you went to Brick Con, you realized you were interested in what you have listed?

    Lol - this made me laugh. How can your spouse build without you being married?

    Kingdoms 2012?

    That's only the first half wave and, as stated specifically at least five times in this thread, Castle doesn't come out until the second half. So, the list shouldn't include any Castle themed sets.

    Those aren't 3-D printed. So, your examples are not applicable.

    BATMAN 2012

    Actually, I think he's (somewhat) correct. His list almost matches the list I found. http://prideprince.tistory.com/entry/2012-LEGO-LIST This guy has scans of all the pages in the new catalog - the link I provided is a list of the sets in 2012. LEGO Super Heroes 2012: 6858 Batman vs. Catwoman 6862 Superman vs. Lex Luthor 6863 Batman vs. the Joker 6864 Batman vs. Two Face 6860 The Batcave 6865 Captain America 6866 X-Men 6867 Iron Man 6868 Hulk and Thor 6869 Avengers 4526 Batman 4527 The Joker 4528 Green Lantern 4529 Iron Man 4597 Captain America 4530 The Hulk
