  1. I agree, capes have dwindled in availability as well now that i remember haha!! I don’t have a problem with army builders per se, it’s the ones that buy in bulk to resell in brick link, theres’ a few that brag about it on other groups and quite honestly I’m kind of glad Lego is going through these problems because that means it’s throwing them off so US loyalists who really do want the pieces and parts can get them before they do hehe
  2. Omg, i forgot i had an extra laying around somewhere in my garage, time to go through my lego poly bags and sell them i have to de clutter my sets anyways
  3. They already have an amazing system in place… in case members forgot the “missing” bricks section limits bricks by the amounts they come in kits meaning if only 5 3026’s are available then that’s it, they can limit the threshold any day of the week but they understand they need to make money by limiting 200 per person honestly. Not to mention the missing bricks has every single brick available at any time per kit as well. too bad we can’t buy them all and are limited to pick a brick quite honestly, I honestly buy for personal use, the biggest problem for pick a brick in reality are the army builders that buy and hoard every single 200 of each order and resell them on their brick links stores… like others have said and myself life was good with pick a brick and bricks and pieces circa 2021, I stocked up on soooo many Lego goods it was golden now they made the system 500% worse believe me. It took a massive nose dive and buried its head in the sand and so far it’s been digging down further in the sand for the time being.
  4. Nothing’s the same anymore, once they run out of stock for the time being they completely disappear from bricks and pieces. The number of bricks in November was around 12,000 now it’s like 11,200. Who knows what’s LEGO at’s play here, your best bet at this rate is brick link, sad to say though in 2021 Pick a Brick was the better alternative.
  5. Help me understand something, I went back to visit my sister in NYC and stopped by the toys r US section in the seventh floor of the Macy’s store, granted I am aware the upcoming LOTR 2023 line so I was shocked for once when I saw these poly bags for sale given how everything for sale there in TRU is recent, the poly bag is Gandalf from Dol Goldur from 2012 and they sold it for 19.99, did I miss something? Hardly think Toys R Us is getting rid of old stock given how they went out business and they had to stock up on new toys: I went back on December 27(The picture was taken December 22) and they were all gone at Macy’s. I went to the fifth avenue LEGO store and asked a Lego rep and they acted like they never seen it before and told me it was a TRU exclusive. I’m so confused. I went to emphasize that each bag was sold 19.99 not the usual 4.99 or so, imagine my shock when the lady at the register told me that price!
  6. Thinking about it, at this rate they were handled faster and cheaper than LEGO, i remember buying them for .07 cents, and I just saw the pricing from lego for .58 cents for them on LEGO, massive difference I think. Shipping is where it’s at the moment and Bricklink will deliver faster and cheaper, in 2021 Pick a Brick was king for this hehe
  7. From 40567 forestmen hideout, lol They finally added the forest men and lady lower green legs LOL, you could only get them if it was legit missing from your lego set but I had to purchase them through bricklink! I should had waited haha
  8. This morning, I actually stayed up at midnight and did not see the visors there at all and the count as still 11282 it’s went up to 11285
  9. I wanted to buy that Hobbit Toys R US Macy’s exclusive poly bag but that 19.99 price tag was a deal breaker for me I hope they don’t inflate those prices for the upcoming LOTR sets
  10. It was 12,000 at the end of last month, the numbers keep going all the way down until maybe next year or midnight tonight
  11. Once a piece is out of they haven’t brought them back, I see that number of available shrinks since early December, Lego is playing it safe! as a matter of fact they didn’t send me my forestmen shields and lo and behold they “sent” replacements but it’s been a month and half already 😔 not holding out hope anymore
  12. First thing January 2023. They haven’t released new bricks since mid November
  13. I’m waiting for Lego to drop the august Pick a Bricks so I can buy more mini figs, then I’ll rebuild my castle again 🤣 I got lucky with black knights and forestmen I need lion knights now
  14. I just keep seeing the number of available bricks from the 12220 drop all the way down to 11,950 😭
  15. It seems like we won’t get any august pieces this month, so far it’s been two weeks since Lego released that black inverted slope piece, at this rate who knows, I feel they are avoiding the upcoming holiday rush 😭
  16. They did, both my neighbors leave their garage doors open and multiple times they will put in the notes and take a picture of my neighbors house inside their garages 🤣🤣 one time of them had the Audicity of leaving me the shipping receipt next to my front door
  17. I could count with my one hand the amount of times fed ex delivered my Lego sets to my neighbors 🤣 Lego Simpsons house, Lego avengers hq, and a Death Star 🤭🤭 lucky them
  18. July is good, it means that the pieces I want are around the corner. I got my order but I noticed my shields are missing, would Lego mail them separately or do I have to call them for shields?
  19. Castle parts for me, I’m watching the website like a hawk
  20. Yes, that one was on sale a while back from the CMF line up, I almost bought it thinking I had more time because I was waiting for the green torso to be in stock, I managed to get some green torsos but now see they removed the blue ones and I’m crossing my fingers it would be brought back in December I hope 🤞
  21. Did they removed the blue forestmen torso? Will they bring it back next month when the 10305 castle parts go live? What about the dark green lower pants? Any luck as well, thanks?
  22. The mini figure parts, hair, torso, from the Viking set were all available in stock at Pick a Brick, with that said so were the forestmen parts earlier today
  23. Damn, I just wanted a handful of forest men and their Shields’s, I got lucky!! Are the bright green pants sold at Pick a Brick the only ones available that can possibly match the torsos? Or do we need the dark green 74040 ones?
  24. Hey is that the forestmen/women torso also? What time does the Bricks and Pieces go online with new merchandise? I’ll have to be on my toes when August comes around
  25. Don’t feel bad, it happened to me in the past and yes with Black falcon pieces, I ended up netting 10 extra torsos again, the hardest part was ordering the legs that took two months to arrive in stock LOL
