  1. Finally found it. Thanks.
  2. Thanks but I'm not finding anything.
  3. Where are you seeing these?
  4. And Majisto is in the back waving his wand over the castle. Can't wait to see what the set will look like. I still have an unopened copy of the original Workshop although the box got crushed when I moved. I also have a built one.
  5. I'm still getting my Standard PAB from USPS. The Bestsellers PAB have been coming UPS as well as sets & GWP's. I actually think it's going better with UPS over Fedex but have gotten a few shipping delays from UPS. I get the notification the package is being delivered & later in the day will get a delay notification for the following day. One was even x number of stops away so here's the link to track the driver & then the dreaded delay notification was sent. Never have gotten a tracking number from Lego for Standard PAB but the charge notification for my credit card & e-mailed receipt from LEGO let me know that it's on it's way and then I get the tracking notifications from USPS a few days later so I know when it arrives in this country.
  6. I was on the fence about some of the parts that came back in stock this week also. I'm trying to wait for the next big GWP too but then I remember the issues with the Elephant parts as well as the removal of one of the colors of the squirrel as well as one color of the retriever dog over the past couple of years. I don't think I'd risk waiting on the Orca so if I didn’t already have an order in for them I'd probably get them while they are available. I 'm currently trying to decide if I should grab some baby Polar Bear Cubs or wait.
  7. Was able to grab some of the Torsos before they went out of stock again as well as the epaulets. Sadly the Pirate GWP has sold out though so I cut back on my part order just to get over the free shipping threshold. Still waiting on some of the animals, plants and a few other things to come back in stock. My order from late on September 30 has arrived in the US so hopefully will arrive by the end of the week. Parts order from October 3 has also been shipped already. I'm liking this 3 week PAB turnaround but don't expect it will last very long.
  8. They are messing with PAB again. I had a list going & it is now gone. Very frustrating. I keep filling out the feedback survey when they mess around with it. I filled one out last week complaining about all the parts that are missing pictures. Today I let them know I wasn't happy that my list has disappeared.
  9. Wasn't there a Stitch figure in the latest Ideas/Target vote winner that was the big Sorcerer Mickey? Not Planning on getting that set unless I like what the Lego designers do with it. But I'm definitely interested in a buildable Stitch. Still hoping we eventually get a Lilo's House playset with a Lilo minifig. Would absolutely be thrilled if they included the jar of her voodoo spoon friends being punished. Not really interested in anymore Encanto sets but depends on what it actually is.
  10. Still showing in the US but the Halloween pack is gone.
  11. I followed through with my plan to get Viking Village from Target rather than Lego. I had $54 worth of Target Circle rewards and still had a $100 gift card left over from when they sold them @ 10% off for Target Redcard holders, So that was a big savings for me rather than getting it from Lego with double points and/or a decent GWP. I had always planned to use the gift card when the set was released and my saved Circle Rewards made it an even better deal. Ended up getting another $15 in earnings for spending over $100 and 1% more back on the purchase since I didn't use my Redcard to pay so I've got another $15+ rewards to spend on something else.
  12. Based on the prices of those two pieces I don’t expect there is any printing on either one.
  13. I ordered a bunch of stuff last night before this latest batch got added. Was loads of fun trying to figure out what everything was without the pictures but found it was mostly Ninjago so only added a few things to what I already had in my cart. At least today's new adds mostly have pictures. I see a bunch of stuff I want so maybe I'll try to do another order before what's currently available goes out of stock. Still have quite a backlog of out of stock parts I want.
  14. No pictures so until I get around to trying to compare to New Elementary's or Rebrickable's pictures I've no idea what sets they actually are from. There's a hat listed at least a half dozen times but doesn't say what color any of them are. A few listings are for wings. One of them appears to be Tiana's tiara.
  15. There's a ton more new parts up on PAB. Mostly out of stock of course and no pictures. Seems like a lot of heads, torsos, armor, printed tiles & creature parts from the descriptions.
  16. The order I placed that was mostly bestsellers & two each of the Orca parts is now showing the Orca Parts as backordered.. So looks like I should eventually be getting them hopefully. I purposely removed all the other standard parts from the order. Will have to wait for the other animals to come back in stock now.
  17. If they are still showing in your cart you might want to try moving it to your bag. That's what I did and I've since received an order confirmation. Hoping the parts were held until I completed the order or they'll fill the order when they restock. That order was split with just the Orca parts as standard parts and everything else was bestsellers. Missed out on the polar cubs & baby seals so hopefully those restock soon. I see a lot of small PAB orders in the near future as stuff comes available.
  18. Looks like the Harry Potter Quidditch Capes will probably be a 4 pack. Each color is listed for $8.48 so same price as the Rivendell multi-pack batch was.
  19. So I had the Orca parts in my cart but the body disappeared from being in stock. Placed the order anyway & it appears to have gone through, hopefully I get them. Now I'm going to go order a bunch of Polar Bears & Polar Cubs.
  20. As stated, in theory no. I always add something small to the order or some Bestseller parts to insure the GWP gets added & shipped.
  21. A few of the animals & Large Fish parts are up. Torn over whether to grab what I can right now & hope the rest get added soon.
  22. Not talking bad about pitchforks. Just saying it is now a somewhat cheap part that is easily gotten. They are on PAB for $.34 whereas the something like the Lute is $2.83. Likewise snake is $.17 and a chicken is $2.06
  23. Well I have to say that this batch has zero accessories I want. Unless they aren't showing something interesting. In the pictures I've seen a few of the figs didn't appear to have an accessory. Pitchforks, mugs, croissants, umbrellas & cameras are all cheap parts.
  24. I was disappointed we didn't get the Pirate pack gain in the U.S. also. The lack of consistency in promotions around the world is annoying at times. Just like we never got the Winter pack over here. I get that there are supply issues going into some of these things but if there are GWP's remaining at the end of a promo period they should just distribute them until they are gone rather than bringing some back 2, 3, 4 or more times in different regions. Meanwhile we are still waiting for some to show up that have been rumored for months.
  25. As an AFOL I have zero interest in some of the minifigs they come up with for BAM. I'm more likely to grab the parts I'm actually interested in and cobble together figures using only the parts I really want. I'm pretty good at knowing which parts are pricer or exclusive so I definitely try to get my money's worth when doing BAM. Solid color legs are mostly a pass for me as they are easily gotten cheaply elsewhere. I go for the printed or dual molded legs or the skirt pieces and things like the Mermaid tails if I can find them. I try to get the seasonal figures if I like them but if I have a choice of grabbing bottoms other than the solid color ones they usually use I will. If it's a specially printed one meant to match the rest of the figure then I will get it. I also go for animals, some of the newer instruments, decorated pies, the flask pieces and such for accessories rather than something like the snowboards, pizzas, bananas, swords, cameras, umbrellas, wands, purses & such that can be bought cheaply elsewhere. Likewise I seek out interesting Headpieces over most plain hair or basic hats like the baseball caps & bike helmets. They were on a roll for a while with trying to make coherent figures but the Q3 wave that was mostly Ninjago did nothing for me other than the Chicken. This new Q4 wave has more body parts I'm interested in but no decent accessories. The Halloween wave was just so-so but I did grab a bunch of the Jack-o-lantern hat piece. I wish they'd bring back the Jack-o-lantern head. The accessories for those three I think I only grabbed one watering can. Passed on the lantern & saxophone and took extra Jack-o-lanterns for accessories and a couple of blue bunnies. Also took some dual molded legs rather than the solid green & brown ones. The challenge with putting together any particular coherent figure is actually finding all the parts that are meant to make up that figure. I've often found it challenging to find all 4 specific body parts needed for some figures, or if I can build the figure itself they accessory I want isn't available.
