Those are quite neat! I never got any of the sets my self but some cousins of mine had loads when they were younger. They are cool for being a basic accessory. I am hoping to get all their old sets to sort through if they didn't already donate them haha I can't say I ever saw this piece but I didn't have any military sets. Nice piece though!

I ask because in my small family, I am the only fan. Some of the kids like legos but they like them for the toy reason, not the collector or professional building reasons. lol Because of this, people have trouble buying me gift because they all like getting me lego sets but 7 times out of 10, they aren't good sets or ones I wanted or needed. I end up using a handful of pieces and tossing the rest in my dump drawer. lol

I am seeing new stuff on mine. Must have corrected itself.

I use these myself. They have loads of sizes and designs.

Thanks I will check it out. I am in the US so I have always just did ebay and I have a feeling I have been ripped off now that I see the pricing difference on Bricklink. Yikes!

For me, I like the city and town sets and themes. I do like the DC one but not as much as the city builds.

Gift cards, clothing, bedding, nothing too major but I like what I got.

So I have considered doing my own custom pieces but I am not sure where to begin. What paint is good to use? What about stickers? I have a lot of crafting items from my girlfriend. She is HUGE on doing crafts. I have polymer clay, gems, paints, and more to work with. I don't want to go over board and make them look cheesy though. haha

Something that goes along with your gaming system, cell phone, or computer. Mine has to be my wireless mouse because I can't stand sing the pad on the laptop. haha

Sounds like the life to me! My one cat doesn't care what I do as long as I am close by. Her is around 10, I took him off the streets so not entirely sure but he loves to sleep. lol I like how you mention the kids in a pet thread LOL Ah sorry I didn't see that thread. Yeah may as well merge it. I don't think I ever not had an animal living with me. I can't do it. lol I had one growing up. Loved the little guy... So did my cat lol

Thanks! I am going to check this one out. I have to re-up my netflix subscription but at least they do gift cards now. I hated paying monthly.

I like watching minecraft videos on youtube. Do you do some or know of some good channels?

I had no idea they made a show for this, or were lego friends first? When did it come out?

Thanks for your suggestions. I will check out the ones I don't know.

I can't think of any off the top of my head but the ones you both have listed are very good.

Hmmm.... Can you give the year of the movie?

Not sure what this is about. Is it making fun of lego movies, Conspiracies? Rap? Minecraft? I am lost. lol

I like to use plastic storage bins, drawers, and the like. All with clear faces so I can see whats in each one. I label them and for smaller pieces, I use small jewelry/crafting bags.

They look like okay sets but nothing I will be getting. I can see the Driller set being good for city mocs but I already have a few construction things. No need for another set.

I am trying to find some more critters to work with. I found a few sets on ebay, one is $10 for 4 animals. Is that a good price? I see a lot with spiders and such but I want more neighborhood/farm friendly critters.

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=lego+train+tracks&rt=nc&LH_BIN=1 Ebay has loads of tracks. Have you checked there? I get a lot of odds and end from there myself.

Very informative! I had no idea they started the bigger sets in 1984. Seems to be a big year for a lot of neat things!

I never thought about it but this is interesting! I know the directions vary but I had no idea the sets are slightly different!

I do this too! I like to keep all pieces separate. As my collection goes, I will separate the faces according to emotions and the clothing according to style.

I am talking the fun little pieces you get in some sets. I have always loved the miniature cooking pieces and mugs. I would love to find a lot with nothing but this kind of stuff. I lost a lot of mine in a move a few years ago. Anyways, what is your favorite accessory/accessories?
