Interesting, must have been an error. They were certainly there at one stage! A bit steeper than I was hoping for. As much as I thought this might be a multi-purchase round, maybe I'll be just getting the balloon. -
Bricklink had the prices up for Series 8 earlier today. I can't see them any more, is it just me? For the record, US prices were as below, but it's Euro prices I'm looking for

I'm clearly doing something wrong so

Seagull with the wings tucked. So the flocks of seagulls people make aren't all identi-posed.

I'm afraid I have no idea what my item count is near, so I can't translate that to how many cabinets, sorry.

I feel like these are contradictory points. The first point boiling down to "being back Space / Pirate / Castle / other sets from my youth that I'm nostalgic for". The second boiling down to "why does Lego cater to adults more than to kids?" I don't buy that kids would care too much about a classic theme revival. Some adults would go nuts for it of course. If Lego did roll back the themes, then they are even worse for catering to adults over kids. If they reduce catering to adults then fat chance you'll see the themes you pine for.

Yep, that's how I'd go about it. Maybe not down to the level of every single part and colour of part needs to be separate, as different volumes dictate different tactics. For me I've some drawers mixed like; 1) Very low volume of a part - doesn't matter the colour, all in one drawer 2) Medium volume of a part - Split to one drawer with monochrome (Black, white, greys) and another drawer with all other colours. 3) High volume of part - each drawer contains a colour or range of colours (like I've a drawer full of grey 1x2 bricks, and another that has all the different greens of 1x2s) 4) Rarely/occasionally - I'll mix a part similarly where each variant is super low count. All "food" type utensils for example, go in the one drawer in the utensils box. A carrot is as good as a pie here for functionality & finding.

I saw these when you posted them elsewhere. I'm very impressed with the cyclops head on the Hulk body, I'd never have thought that up.

Which Lego YouTube channels are best these days?
Yoggington replied to Lego Mike's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Another guy who posts quality over quantity: https://www.youtube.com/@kaizoideas/videos His videos come months apart, but every second one is a fully built-in-the-brick concept for an ideas project (and then every other vid is something smaller like a vehicle for the biggie, or a brief tutorial). His builds tend to fit in the City line, sometimes veering futuristic - but these are City builds with AFOL leanings for detail and technique. No talking heads or algorithm hacks, just stop motion building of fully realised MOCs. Super stuff. -
I use three of the Bror. Its garden shed/garage shelving, so it can look quite industrial in a house (less so in sage green). But in return you get very deep shelves, and open sides.

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Future Series Rumours
Yoggington replied to r4-g9's topic in Special LEGO Themes
This is an excellent idea. Allows for a unifying theme but can also be as varied as you like within that. Spaceman with a futuristic instrument, jester with an old timey something or other and so on. I'll see if I can think up a good full series. -
That's why I'm just hoping :D
-
I'm delighted to find the only one I'm really considering is the smallest of them. My one that got away is the Training Ground. Hopefully the designer posts the instructions elsewhere.

We are literally talking about it right now.

This is true and I agree. I for one would certainly like to see a lot more Castle stuff for example. I think the irritation comes when people make sweeping statements about how there are way more licensed sets than unlicensed - because this simply isn't true. Phrased the way you've put it now, I can get behind that.
