Target have all their Halloween sections at 50% off - this means 50% off mini figures and 50% off the Racer & Atlantis baggie. Managed to pick up about 12 of each today.

I absolutely agree with Dodger. We tested it for a few months. The kids (in the age group lego is aiming at) loved it. So much that I had tantrums when I restricted access. I couldn't use it. Its so clunky. I couldn't chat. At all. Couldn't group. No storage chest and lack of inventory space. No way to move items between characters on the same account. Totally lacks the ability to manipulate the interface and move things around. You can only move using the arrow keys - no mouse ability. It felt like a 1980's arcade game. For younger kids its fabulous but as a parent I'm not paying a monthly fee for something I have to limit their usage of! If this had have been a $60, one time buy the game, I would have done it. We will be sticking with our Starwars the complete saga. Since two can play that at once and its effectively the same functionality for the kids. They do not come in contact with any other player except to fight over who gets a kill My conclusion is that it might as well have been an off-line game.

I too love the Engineer, you captured the feel of him. We beta tested it, my kids loved the game.

Zeya two of the Border's in San Jose just restocked their mini figures. They are way overpriced, but use a coupon and each one comes out to $2.61 including tax. Might be a way to finish your collection.

Borders US Halloween Sale 40% off any one item They restocked their starwars sets including the battle packs. And they advertise the City Advent Calender at $23.99 with coupon.

Thank you everyone for your help!

While I love lego, I know next to nothing about starwars. My son has asked for "good guys" for Christmas, to battle his drones (MTT) and various troopers. So aside from Rebel Troopers what qualifies as a "good guy" for the purpose of helping him have an army battle? Thanks in advance.

By how much is everything normally on sale at a LEGO store?

Its already on your list but I wanted to confirm I had a good experience and great customer service buying from Little Plastic Bricks.

Thank you very much! So yes, they aren't sending me these any longer. I was sent the 25% off most items in your purchase coupon

The two starwars ships are in my local costco for $49. There is the fire helicopter rescue I think it was somewhere about $30, and they have the brickmaster books - including the Atlantis one for $15.

It would be wonderful if Lego S@H sold a complete box. I am was really lucky with hunting around for series 2 but only because I got to the shops the day they put them on the shelves (I didnt see series 1 at all locally). I don't hold out that much hope that series 3 will be too dissimilar in availability or pricing from series 2. Because anyone that finds that complete box as it goes on the shelves will this time buy the whole thing rather than sort through them at the shop. Then you have to get lucky and find the shop that person returns all their unwanted, crumpled and felt through packets to.

If anyone has a link to a 33% or 40% off borders starting tomorrow or later, if you could post it that would be great. Recently they've been sending me other sorts of coupons instead. Wondering if I visit it too often so am not getting the good ones any longer. Thank you.

This is beautiful! Its all the little touches that bring it to life. I too wish LEGO had have made someting like that. I woud buy it in a heart beat. I'm thankful this thread was bumped so that I could see it.

I had the same thing happen this week with a HP set. So I took it back to the store today to exchange it. I tried to return and rebuy it to get the magnet but no luck - they were out.

Are those the surrounding green plastic from the thee leaved pants that you've repurposed for sprouting plants and vines? Love the vegetation and the feel is just right. Nicely done.

6) DJ Entry (Build by Duke) 15) Traffic Cop Entry (Build by Profound Whatever) 23) Vampire Entry (Build by Darkblane)

Love the contrast of inside to out. Jealous of all those 1x1 tiles. I the crabs in the furniture. My suggestion would be put the anubis up on a plinth so he is more proportionally filling the archway compared to the sarcophagus.

The pitchfork (wish they'ld find a collectible minifigure to rerelease this items with too.)

Hula Girl: nice but like other said lacking in the accessory Native American Chief: We don't have the originals so I'm happy to have a character that works with the girls from series 1. Samurai: I would like an army of these. Pilot: the first thing I thought was is that backpack a parachute? I like the whimsy. Fisherman: I love this character Cyborg: too much of a mish mash of part for me. I'll pass. Snowboarder: I like her but I doubt I'll moc with her. Driver: boring. Rapper: like the possibilities. Elf: has to be my favourite but then I love fantasy. Alien: I just have no use for him. Mummy: Could have hoped for a bit more of an aging look, but on the whole I'm happy. He was the figure that before we saw pictures, I thought would be my favourite of the lot, but the Elf took the cake. Tennis Player: like the new parts but don't like her. Really needed a skirt. Baseball Player: Not being American, Baseball is not our thing, but I can see how this is a great addition. Sumo: Wish they had have done a fat belly that clipped on like a reverse backpack. Gorilla: likewise wish for a belly. My kids had high hopes for this. They wanted it to look like the gorilla in LEGO Universe that they've been killing, not like a man in a gorilla suit. Disappointed.

I recently bought some of the torso's of #2 & #10's from the Lego shop build a mini figure section. Unfortunately I've had to put them on plain bases :( Everytime the lego shop has thrown me a survey I keep saying make more gowns! But I wonder if being female I'm not enough of their marketing demographic to matter.

I wish the Lego shop at home store would wise up and realise if people want to buy complete boxes, then they could make not only their profit but also the wholesale and distributor portion too by just selling them online. Without the barcodes that seems the only way to hope we'll get a complete set in series 3 and beyond.

After almost completing series 2, we are looking for to series 3. I wonder if the gorilla is a nod to the gorilla in LU? Since my kids requested adding bananas to our last pick a brick order I'm sure they'll be all over that figure.

Thank you for the reply. I'ld love to see the transitions between floors and look forward to the article when its available.

Thank you for the technique Bojan, your design and post are really inspiring. And thank you Superkalle!!!! You've opened up a whole new world. I've looked at LDD in the past and been frustrated that it doesn't have the amount of bricks I have at home. Now I'm like a kid in a candy store. -Cara
