    They uploaded alternate instructions for the space shuttle and I’m hoping they will for this castle soon! https://www.lego.com/en-us/service/buildinginstructions/10497?CMP=AFC-AffiliateUS-LNtsWdwRzsQ-2513819-115554-1 lucky I got it with the shipper box 😍😍 They got 36 today and already have 14 left 🫣

    No news sources, internet happens so fast for me but I have been given links like these about working there and apply 🤷 https://www.legocareersvirginia.com/

    Damn, what did I say, already in front of all these peeps and I only see 6 Castle sets displayed 😍 No GWP’s in sight For those wondering why this didn’t came out on August 1st, the group here is telling me that they were 200 people here Monday lined up outside 😒

    I have gotten invites and news about a new factory meant to handle increased BAP
  5. eldiano
    They are literally building a new warehouse just for BAP on the east coast of the USA, it was supposed to be done any time soon so it’s just a matter of time 😒

    Some stores might have some available still if you are lucky, I know legoland has them for sure! I’m having problems checking out when ever I try to I get an error and a second ago the backorder button popped up with 25th august ship date 🙄 I’ll see if I can get one tomorrow at a store

    OMG if it’s out stock already on the shop online lego store I’ll definitely be there bright an early tomorrow, I called my local lego store and they were like Oh yeah we got some but LOL we “don’t Know” how many we got. I know they are lying because my home girl told me they got them in last week lolol. Any other promos that go live tomorrow as well? I’m not holding out hope for another Forest Hideout due to demand this month.

    Your best bet is stores, lego low key emphasizes on “while supplies last” 😭😭

    It would be cool and weird, a good friend of mine always told me they build the Lego sets when they can but the whole entire store helps 🤣, I would be territorial “mine” get your own 🤣🤣

    It’s close to the 3rd on some parts of the world and you know how some stores just let them go before Street date, I figured they would out and about already 🤷

    You are not the only one, I’m shocked at how many VIP points I racked up from buying BaP on impulses buys for my mods, you are right they are losing money on me that way but their loss not mine, they rather raise prices on other stuff 🫣
  12. eldiano
    Anyone seen this out on in the wild yet?
  13. eldiano
    They can't even track these when you pay with cash, the only way TLG enforces the rules are with VIP accounts. I'm a little Jelly my sister went to the 5th avenue lego store and managed to get the GWP 20 minutes ago, i'm hoping stock holds up until 3rd of August but if shop.lego.com is out i'm not holding out hope. Oh well.

    I loved the fact that I could buy parts of new sets so I can add on and make more mini modular sets that way, Last time I purchased items was close to before the overhaul but still, I have no clue what they are doing in terms of parts, maybe because of shortages but we will see.

    Promobricks is saying this GWP is live already on the august 1st releases mentioning that if you got it already in June you can’t get this one or whatever but also has the same minimum purchase limit of 150 euros, It’s not midnight yet in the US site though
  16. eldiano
    Once I got the Forest Hideout I couldn't let it sit there not being built, the curiosity got the best of me and I had to finally build it. Weird building techniques and all but worth it!!! The only regret was not having this castle set next to it!
  17. eldiano
    Rumor has it this will be a vip exclusive when buying sets of $50 and above early next month
  18. eldiano
    Is this Lego 40515 add on pack coming to the US site? All references on lego.com are European

    Crossing my fingers it doesn't get delayed like the Star Wars AT-TE, Common LEGO we have 1 week left please

    Go to the popular Bricks and pieces availability on this forum, they will keep you updated on what new parts and pieces available each month. Before the change earlier this year LEGO was doing good on adding bricks from non licensed sets but they have reduced what you can buy and it's mostly 2022 bricks and pieces that haven't been available, we are hoping it's a delay because in the past we could buy same unique bricks introduced in the same sets that month so we will see. I know LEGO was building a factory on the east coast just to help with BAP. Me personally checking the topic I mentioned earlier was helpful in knowing when black falcon pieces came in, i'm not going to lie I have a colossal black falcon army right now and i'm hoping i can do the same with the lion knights but it's on Lego on when we can purchase the pieces, there usually not stingy since i have splurged a ton of money on castle and pirate accessories and minifigures lololol. PS: after playing the Minifigure Factory the pants, hair and hat, face and accessories are bare bones, it focuses too much on torsos, I found like 6 castle torsos from the 2013 release. They plan to include more from what they say but I do need a few dragon knights torsos

    LOL, is that why in the past they could sneak new sets before the official LEGO store release date? I’m not going to lie, being an annual pass holder member does have it perks, especially when it comes to getting a 10% discount on the majority of newer sets on items less than a 100$
  22. eldiano
    The market is hot and could be a gold mine depending on what you have, usually can net you 60-80usd per container but if you have the rare vehicles I’ve seen them fetch up a high price! Hey when did Legoland start offering GWP?! They have the current Harry Potter staircase I always thought they were separate companies

    How big of a box would it be? I just brought MicroMachines blind boxes but I can find out which items they are from the barcode so all is not lost LOL. PS. If you type in the set in PAB the lego website does populate the bricks for this set now, you can buy almost every brick from 10305. Out of 711 available bricks only 95 are sold out, they have the generic torsos, heads and legs but no forestmen goods or printed castle stuff, the only shield I saw was the Black Falcons. It usually takes a couple of months for them to add the other parts, this was the case Medieval Blacksmith and Medieval Castle, let’s hope Lion Knights Follows suit!

    Ehh It’s not bad, I kind of like the hype with other minded Lego maniacs haha, the problem is that 100% they all want the same set you want therefore you need to be there early to ensure a guaranteed spot in line haha like Richard Goring mentioned, I actually became friends with some lego employees and they can get me a heads up on shipment, even then they usually get them a week before release date, in the past they could sell them before the street date but the LEGO Group restricted their software to put a stop to it. I agree, I don’t know why it’s a big deal, this ain’t old school lego that you are stuck with what you got, they can literally but Lego Mini head male replacements if it’s that bad. Yes, I got it for my Death Star set, it helps keep the box in shape rather than sagging on side because of gravity LOL. In 2017 there was a time that LEGO told their employees to throw them all away but a couple of years later they let us keep them! Like I mentioned it keeps the boxes stiff and in good shape!

    In the past it was always 15 days prior to the official release date for VIP members, the official release date does say August 8th but like Richard Goring states also the US Lego website does have a banner that says VIP access will start August 3rd. There's a little queen lego figure in a yellow banner by the release date that advertises the VIP perk for 3/8 With that said though my local store is full of nerds, I know some workers by name but the thing is every 1st of the month or when a big release comes out there's like 10-20 groups of people lined up outside! We have to scan the QR code for the waitlist to be let inside but the thing is that LEGO doesn't send that many sets on release date usually like two boxes which is like 6 sets and once it sells out you have to wait until the next shipment. I remember when the Daily Bugle came out they were sold out for a month straight every set that came in was taken already. Hence why i'm not risking any chances with this set, even though I won't be able to build it for a while haha but I'm curious on the GWP and promotion they got if any and more than anything it would be now or never, I as a collector like to have the shipper boxes and i hope they let us keep it, other wise the shape of the box gets warped and distorted, we will see.
