Found them in Belgium too ! One question though: didn't someone mention earlier that the Mafia guy's gun didn't fit in the suitcase ? Totally did for me. Or maybe they mentioned a tommy gun wouldn't fit ? Another thing - that suitcase isn't exactly easy to open, and I noticed the bottom hinge become white after opening it :( Did this happen to others ? Did I open it too violently ?

Other suggestion for a flag pole, directly stolen from the Winker Bakery Shop: > > > They all exist in black, and the flags exist in a bunch of colors - availability might not be high enough to cover the current and any future minifigure sets though. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4495 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=2714 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=62462 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=2460

yeahh.. should have thought of watching the video myself :D .. but it sounds edited ? ;)

So def not half a turn with fresh batteries uh ? Hmmm make sense, although I'd have sworn i put new batteries in there... thinking about it maybe I didn't, and bought new ones *after*... good point ! Thanks !

Hey, I know this thread's been inactive for a while now, and perhaps this isn't the best place to ask, but: I'm currently building this set, and am wondering if it's "normal" that the music stops at some point: the sound brick is evidently equipped with a trigger rather than a switch, but it seems that it ends right at a half-turn before the cam reaches the button to start it again. Albeit, if there were 2 opposed cams, the music *might* play non-stop, if I'm seeing this correctly. So: did I mess up something in the build ? Has anything tried adding a second cam, is the timing right ? (i don't have no try here)

nice ! god idea on the "gun" mod!

My local supermarket had a 30% discount on all toys and games in store today. Dayum. Couldn't resist, had to complete my series 4 (i only 2 so far, which I bought overpriced at the NY Lego Store) - Viking was one of the last I found, most others were easy to feel up, but didn't find a Frankenstein monster. Had to feel up about 80% of the whole box (which seemed mostly complete but I didn't count) until I found the Viking.. felt all the rest, and there was a bunch I couldn't recognize quickly, put them aside... I thought I'd read here the Frankenstein's *head* was bigger than usual, so that's what I was searching for - of course now I see it's a regular head with a "top". If anyone could post pictures of the monster's headgear alone under a few angle, that'd definitely be a great help to figure out what to look for. I found this - http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=x231px1 - and am pretty sure I felt something like that at some point - but the pictures of this Frankenstein don't seem to show studs on the sides ? edit: Ha, bricklink has it, of course: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?M=col055 - additional pictures still appreciated, but I'm pretty sure I've felt something like that now that I see it independently, just had no idea what it was.

Basel, Switzerland.

There's even some s1 left over here ! :)

yeah. I wonder though; as a shop vendor, I wouldn't be too happy if my customers came in and felt up all the packages (gross and potentially breaking small parts), where as barcodes... I don't know what percentage of customers most shop had using them anyway. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one at my shop, my vendor seemed to have no idea what the hell I was doing until I showed him my cheat sheet just the other day.

Uhm, I'll admit to not having read the previous 35 pages in their entirety, but.. do we have news as to whether TLC went back to barcodes for these, stuck with hard-to-read and sometimes-inconsistent bumps or something else entirely ? I don't always feel comfortable feeling up packages for 15 minutes when the boxes are at the counter of the shop I visit :-D
