I went to my local Lego store the other day for x2 VIP points, unfortunately they were out of Ecto-1's. I asked an employee if they had any in the back, and he thought for a moment, and said "Well, actually we have one..." He came out with an Ecto-1 with a large dent in the box. It had a sticker for +100 bonus VIP points. He said no one had wanted to buy it based on the box, but as today was x2 points I'd actually get 200 bonus points, the equivalent of a $10 discount! I left the store with an Ecto-1 that day.

Yesterday my local Lego store had plenty of all the sets in the line for x2 VIP, including the I-Rex breakout. I elected to pass. That's the only one I don't have yet, but the only thing I really want from it is Wu and the dino, the rest is pretty meh.

Great lighting! The hand is very nice as well.

Fantastic build, the worm and spitting effects are awesome. You do spoilers like [ spoiler] -insert text- . But without the space in the first tag.

That table is all kinds of awesome.

Fair point, I didn't even think about newer players! Excited to see which one you picked... Don't tell me, it'll be a surprise!

Hit the Double VIP points hard yesterday, some early Christmas shopping. -Mystery Machine -Minecraft The Dungeon -Speed Champions Finish Line -Ecto-1 (Damaged Box- +200 bonus VIP points ) -Speed Champions Porsche -Poe's X-Wing -Heartlake Food Market -2 PaB cups (1 large, 1 small) -2 Calendars and 2 Gingerbread houses Sat in the store eyeing the Red 5 but didn't pull the trigger. I'd spent enough for one day.

It wasn't working on my phone either. I tried desktop but got the same error message, so I imagine it was a server thing and not your device.

One more question... Do we have to pick builds to change that were posted before this challenge was announced, or can we also pick ones that were posted during the running time of the challenge? I can imagine you wouldn't want us to post a build that was made just so it could be easily swapped to another corporation. Where's the fun and creativity in that?

For the last couple hours I've been getting Error 403- Forbidden whenever I try to access the website. It seems to be working fine now.

Location: F08 - Raduon Tags: Spying, Piracy Log Of Jebediah O'Reilly, Entry #026: Scramble Code 613Alpha76 Encryption Key [classified] Security Clearance 10 or Above Required for Access I've been a fool. I tried to run, I tried to hide from my past. It found me. This shouldn't have happened. It's a miracle Dr. Long managed to get us out. Both of us. We should be dead. I knew... I should have seen it before. I've been there before... at the station. I wanted to forget- forget. I won't see a psychiatrist. I can put it behind me, I've done it before. I will do it again. Corporate wasted no time getting me back in the field. I've been assigned to investigate reports of Kawashita activity on Raduon. Anything to keep my mind off the events of the last few days... technically the events of the last few years. That's enough of that. This is a mission log, not a diary! Better up the security... if this got into the wrong hands, my career might as well be over. I'd have to fake my death, change my name... Oh wait, I've already done that. Dammit, get back on track Jebediah! Pull it together. There's something. Looks like a Kawashita comms beacon. I could just blow it up... ...or bug the line. Much better. The information gained will be even more valuable than simply destroying the beacon. On a side note. Dr. Long made me wear that ridiculous blue spacesuit... didn't even match the time period. Some buffoon in charge of handling my regular uniform back in present day has misplaced my helmet, and I have to wear this stupid regulation one until they find it. Someone is going to have hell to pay when I get back to the Axle. End Log Entry #026 Extra photos and commentary in the spoiler.

Excellent atmosphere!

Jebediah celebrates the season with a cup of overpriced coffee and his Octan Tree™ (patent pending). Plus, there's not a scorpion in sight!

Thank you.

30 to Bob

Excellent creation paying homage to an excellent set.

You have singlehandedly ruined my day by bringing this to my attention. It's true though.

Sorry if this is a really n00by question... but say you build a freebuild, post it in a new thread, then register it to be "scored..." What exactly does the scoring, well, do?

I would assume this applies in-store as well? All the stuff I want is sold out on Shop@Home. I might be able to make it to my local store though, maybe I'll get lucky.

Oops, I probably won't be going. Misread the fine print and didn't realize you had to RSVP by the 14th. :sad_cry: I thought you just had to RSVP before the actual event. I'll call them tonight and maybe they'll be nice to me.

Should we refrain from beginning to transfer credits until the credits are in the system?

Made for the Pimp Rey's Speeder Contest over on the Brothers Brick. My exact train of thought: "What the heck, it worked last time." Sharknado Speeder! Comments welcome, as always.

Where's my DeLorean?
