    ^ I don't know about obvious... a weak old part can be broken in other ways. Either way, the seller needs to make things right.

    ^ You're right, they all look great! ... just me?

    That's really strange... were the parts packed well? I could understand accidentally selling a few broken parts, but not 80% of an order, unless the seller has zero knowledge of constraction and just got it in a lot, or something.

    What few used sets i have bought stay in a seperate bin. Partly because they are the only sets i have has with cracking pieces, so i want to see if any of the sets i bought new end up cracking as well.

    I loved that zeppelin so much, but Im not sure Lego would make such a large molded piece again... so it would likely be smaller and brick built.

    Always been a big Nintendo fan, my only hobby that never stopped for more than a year. A few years ago, a WiiU game called Lego City Undercover came out, published by Nintendo. Bought it and loved it, especially because seeing a living Lego city was what I wanted so many years ago on the living room floor. Saw there was a tie in set available, 60007, with Chase McCain. Bought it (shocked by the price when I took it to the cashier, but not about to stop), and loved it. Started looking into other City sets, saw many of them match vehicles from the game. Bought some more. Saw the Grand Emporium was a real set, after seeing it represented in the game. Buying that was when I fully committed to being an AFOL! Now I'm hopelessly addicted, but never been happier.

    Can't wait to see more!

    I have read on forums that those rereleases didn't sell that well, but no clue otherwise.

    I really don't think AFOLs have that strong of an effect. For every AFOL buying a set, there are a thousand kids getting one too. (made up statistics that are probably wrong as all heck) Short term supply, sure, jerk scalpels are causing issues (minecraft sets during Christmas, for example), but otherwise no.

    Words cannot describe how much I appreciated that Johnny Thunder's equivalent was named Jake Raines.
  11. geezerman402
    Plus I want to see these grey Johnny Thunder hats! I know it came in brown and black...

    Two hospitals under the City line so far. Neither are too good... http://brickset.com/sets/theme-City/subtheme-Medical

    Preach! Nexo Knights may not be everyone's cup of tea, but they are miles ahead of many other themes.
  14. geezerman402
    Not a 2016 set and shouldn't be discussed here. (but I think it's a good set)
  15. geezerman402
    You're right, "Bioncle" is not a Lego product.
  16. geezerman402
    Yup. These days retailers don't want excess stock kicking around when the hot new stuff comes out. And since (compared to the past) there are waaaaay more new sets per year, the turnover needs to be done quicker.
  17. geezerman402
    ^ Sure, you and many others may not like how a set looks. But the idea that after some years, many AFOLs will absolutely love these themes (and have fond memories of them if it has been long enough) is likely true.
  18. geezerman402
    Looks great! Lots of small details.
  19. geezerman402
    This box of Lego is basically all sets I owned, or wanted :P
  20. geezerman402
    Yeah they were retreads, and most of them much smaller than previous pirate sets. But they were all very good sets in their own right.
  21. geezerman402
    A very good selection of sets coming out of this!
  22. geezerman402
    "Rouge" brings me back to my days of hanging out on the GameFAQs forum for Rogue Leader. I guess it was inevitable :P
  23. geezerman402
    Really great addition! Almost enough to convince me to buy the deli, but something about the set still puts me off :S
  24. geezerman402
    Anyone investing is a reseller. But that really shouldn't have a negative connotation unless they are scalping.
  25. geezerman402
    Also the logo for dino island quite indicative of the sets, I feel. Bleh.
