  1. I'm hugely disappointed it's not part of the Speed Champion theme. That seems like such a waste. Have 2-3 Bond cars a year, have dual sets with the 60s and present day models. Even without the Bond figures (which might be a licensing issue) I think they would be much better than another Creator car.
  2. ^Yeah the heads would always fall off. So happy LEGO did that for the new Series sets and probably Movie Sequel. Same here. But it looks like you can get two, so if they are 2 for like $1.50 on Bricks and Pieces I'll pick a pair up.
  3. There is a new $10 ring set in the USA. It's a brand new (?) ring piece (for a human, NOT a minifigure). It's OOS but listed. Part number is 36970 Set number is 853780 https://shop.lego.com/en-US/Creative-Rings-853780 (This is my 100 post. Woohoo!)
  4. I actually really dislike the cargo train, it has very few cars, the ones they do have are awful and it's just nothing special. Plus there is only one switch track instead of the normal 2. That passenger car is amazing. I like the remade front, it looks good. LEGO has been making huge specialty pieces for over 25 years and it works here. And the one engine and two cars really works well. The prices are supposedly 130 and 180/190 Euro in Germany. So it's probably $150-$180USD for the passenger and $200-$230USG for the cargo.
  5. Not a record as mine took the same amount of time. I should email them and complain to see if I can save $3 on shipping.
  6. Anyone in the USA seen this in a non-LEGO Store? I'm trying to figure out if it was a TRU exclusive. Walmart has two exclusive sets and this one seems to only be at S@H.
  7. There are none. I'm saying LEGO should make a new switch the track piece that had studs on it, or a technic pin or something.
  8. How about we wait until decent pictures before complaining LEGO just threw some small pieces to drive up cost. I mean would you Europeans be happier if LEGO threw in some big pieces, like dinosaurs, to drive the cost through the roof? I bought some switch track for $9 just last week. I didn't understand why it had 4 curved track, would have made more sense to be two curved and two straight. I would love if they changed the switches to ones with studs, but I doubt it.
  9. Paying rent instead is an option. :P
  10. White is a very famous color for wooden coasters in the USA. White support and red cars. There is the Jack Rabbit in Rochester NY, nearly 100 years old. Not sure how it's stayed open, the Seabreeze Park is only open like two months a year. Also the Bobsled Coaster is white. I stuck a video because it has a great view of Lake Ontario. (Even though Europeans probably can't watch the YouTube clip.)
  11. I knew when I ordered there would be delays. However I (rightly) expect my order from March to be shipped out before someone's order from last week. That's kind of ridiculous. If there are pieces that are on backorder than don't list them on B&P until they come back. Plus I didn't order that many parts.
  12. I rather spend the $3 on pieces, plus shipping might be more than 4-6 of those clock pieces. What?!?! I ordered March 7, they didn't ship until APRIL 10th, still haven't gotten them. I'm going to file a complaint when they do show up. I'm looking for new JW2 pieces, the sets are listed not sure if the parts are for sale yet. However all the new parts, like every torso and Junior printed pieces, seems to be listed. But no full dinosaurs, raptors have no legs. If anyone wants to try and call in to get the pieces listed, but not for sale online. Oddly the Tron set isn't listed at all.
  13. I'm annoyed with those clock pieces. When I made my order (months ago) it wasn't for sale, now that it is and my order still hasn't arrived. They are the perfect size for a train station I'm planning.
  14. If the old Cargo Trains have 750-800 pieces and cost $200USD then it makes sense a 1200 piece train would cost 250 Euro, $280-$300USD. Not that I like that, but I have seen the current trains for 40%+ off so whatever. By the time the new trains come out maybe we can get the old ones for 50%+ off. :)
  15. It's back, just wait until it drops a lot in price. The piece is number 36920
  16. I just got an email from LEGO, my March 7th order just shipped today! I'm not in a rush to get the pieces but this is outrageous. Yes I know some of you will brick and moan that I'm not talking about new pieces, too bad. If you are in the USA just be warned it will be 6-8+ weeks before you get your pieces. I also never knew there was a taco 1x1 curved tile piece, just saw it yesterday and it cost $1.11USD!!! (Others of the same size and shape, like the pizza slice are only 33 cents.)
  17. LEGO sets based on a horror show of a season that hasn't started filming yet would contain spoilers? Go away. It's not April, this isn't clever, we aren't fools, you are just a troll.
  18. Thanks and darn. I made an order weeks ago, I would have added the Train Station clock, 86 cents is a good value. I wonder if it shipped. And yeah LEGO selling the tent piece is new... and kind of expensive. Kayak is $1.40 yet tent is $2.50ish?
  19. Then LEGO made a ton more and there wasn't a supply issue. I think what is really preventing it is Disney. Disney probably wants LEGO to make sets with the figures, like Incredibles 2 and minidolls, than a series of minifigures. I'm still worried we will get more Batman next fall.
  20. Please site your sources.... Everyone I know has said the same thing, the stores were cleared out of the exclusives and newer stuff, probably because LEGO took back that stock. Everything else was 5%-15% off besides old junk no one wanted when it was cheaper years ago.
  21. Looks like two $10 motorcycles and then $15 for the base. Ludicrous. I'll wait a few weeks for the 20-30% off on Amazon.
  22. My only pet peeve is the exact opposite of this. It drives me to not be part of the AFOL community because wackos go around correcting every little thing. I say LEGOs, not LEGO System Bricks. You know what I'm talking about, it shouldn't be as big of an issue. It's like if video gamers went around correctly every time someone said Gamecube instead of Nintendo GameCube (The official spelling). It just doesn't matter. So it's why I might be here this week, but then gone for 3-4 months as ARAFOL (Anal Retentive Adult Fans of LEGO) just take all the joy from the toy (It's a toy, not your parent) away.
  23. I don't think that many people will be posting about LEGO finds from TRU as LEGO supposedly took back all of it's newer set stock and everything has been cleaned out rather quickly at not that much off.
  24. He's just waiting until this Christmas, that way if you win again he saves on shipping.
