    75022 Mandalorian Speeder Also, I damn near had a heart attack at TRU. I saw a set that was not on sale at the regular price. I couldn't believe it, had to check to make sure I was at TRU.

    The latest episode of "The Crazy Ones" a sculpture of a rocking horse with an overgrown minifigure atop it was spotted.

    I disagree. They themselves aren't represented in the character. The minifigure at least represent their facial features to an extent. Whereas the voice of an actor, Chris Pratt as Emmet for example, doesn't represent Pratt in minifigure form.

    I love me some 6085 Black Monarchs Castle!

    A somewhat(I think) LEGO spotting. Was watching an old episode of Big Bang Theory, go figure, it was the episode of Leonard telling the story of how he became Sheldon's roommate to Penny. The apartments flag was, I believe, the old Lion Knights insignia.it may just be a coincidence seeing as its just a posed lion, but it looked just like it.

    I've got one for "mycomicshop.com". Dammit man! I'm already spending too much LEGO money on comics...stop reminding me!

    Wow. I wouldn't say awful. It strayed quite a lot from the book, but I liked it quite a bit. Curious why you say awful?

    I know my area, TRU has, by far, the biggest section & selection out of the three. I can only assume that's how they justify the markup. I don't mind paying a few dollars, since if I bought from LEGO I'd have to pay for shipping. But, with 9516 Jabbas Palace for example, they had a $20 mark up on it.

    My money does it for me. Also, comics have been leading me astray.

    I'm not too fond of them. I'd be more likely to buy a Superheroes one regardless of its contents(being pieces/mini builds)depending on which figures. I bought the Kingdoms one a few years ago, it was alright, the builds were of little use to me.

    Another spot on Big Bang Theory. Sheldon was building something, couldn't make it out though.

    I don't follow this thread, so if this may have been suggested. Upon opening 70812 Creative Ambush, Sudds Backwash would be a nice start for OG S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Dum Dum Dugan.

    Oh man, so awesome! 10225 is my favorite set in my entire collection...and this is fantastic.

    Great posters and movie screen, well done.

    Also, this Emmet has a different face print(both sides) than other sets. I saw this on display in the window of a LEGO store. Originally I wasn't going to get this because I'm not all that into the big pirate ships. But, after seeing it includes the double decker couch and a Kitty variant, and seeing the huge size of the thing, I was sold. This review has reinforced my decision to buy, gat job.

    How on Earth do you store such a huge collection?!

    Tough choice indeed...I'm going to go with the Iron Patriot suit.

    Quite a haul today: 70801 Melting Room 70804 Ice Cream Machine 70805 Trash Chomper 70806 Castle Calvary 70807 MetalBeards Duel 70809 Lord Business' Evil Lair 70811 Flying Flusher 70812 Creative Ambush Martian Manhunter I was hoping to get them all...sadly they were missing some of the better ones. They were also rather cruel to display the new Batman sets, but not have any out. I wanted to get Flash to go with Manhunter.

    It's definitely underhanded, taking advantage of a situation and unknowing people.

    I think, at least in my area, it really comes down to 'supply & demand'(in a sense). The few times I've been to Wal-Mart, the selection is pretty poor. Target is a bit better. Then, you walk into TRU and there selection/bulk outweighs the both put together. Granted, Target/Wal-Mart aren't dedicated toy stores, but I'm assuming that's how TRU may justify their price gouging. I shop there less and less because of the crazy make ups they do. A few bucks I don't mind...but when they bump in $20 like they do...
  23. Vindicare
    That is fantastic, thanks for sharing.

    I'm not overly fond of the more human looking, 'toned' Groot. He just looks too human to tree bark. The movie looks great though. This is a good year for the MCU.

    These articles are really sad and annoying to read. The author either didn't do proper research on the theme, or just doesn't care to include it. As mentioned earlier, there's plenty of non stereotypical girl things in the Friends theme, yet these articles never mention them...
