  1. I'll add that the "Content I Started" stream is suffering from the same issue. My Dragon Masters topic that I created this week isn't show up in the feed.
  2. They probably had more demand than sets in stock. It happens, especially when there's a promo running like x2 points. I had that happen to me for the Daily Bugle. Took forever to get the set shipped, but after 2 months it finally arrived. I "complained" after a month and they sent me some free points. Thankfully I didn't need it urgently for a present or anything. I bought it because it was on sale and too good to pass up. Hopefully the same will happen for you.

  4. I don't think we're likely to see a chrome ship anytime soon, but there are a number of Monkie Kid and Ninjago sets with "chrome" gold as a prominent color. How hard would it be for Lego to do the same with silver on a Star Wars ship? Unfortunately it's not that the 6 countries with the Smart Brick will have more sets. It's just that the other countries will have fewer sets. This is how I shop for all my Star Wars sets.
  5. Resetting the streams sounds like a good option. I've built my own streams before to try to get around the errors in the default ones. What you've stated is accurate.

  7. I wouldn't go so far as to call them a scam, but I think your analysis is too lite on Lego. The reality is that you get that exclusive GWP only if you buy the set on the first day, sometimes within the first few hours. And yes, the terms and conditions say "while supplies last." But to create a limited number of copies of a highly valued GWP and then create a history of there not being enough to last past the first day and you get the nightmare that GWPs have become. It's not a scam and there's no deceit. But I would say there is plenty of marketing trickery going on. What Lego should do is mass produce the GWPs to ensure they have enough to last the entire promo period. And then any left overs get sold at retail price (I've seen many of them listed at $30 retail value). They can even wait 6 months before selling the remaining stock to ensure day-one buyers get to enjoy it more before the general public.

  11. This is amazing build technically, but the fact that you also made it visually beautiful is so cool.
  12. My plan is to use one for display and the other to part out. I'd use the figures and pieces in MOCs. At that price, it's going to be a great PPP and with figures I couldn't get for decent prices on the aftermarket. I really want to keep one for display, but I also love making my own scenes. That's why I ended up getting a 2nd Rivendell. With Barad-Dur I just ended up buying a 2nd set of the orcs. I don't need more black pieces and I'm not going to MOC often enough with the Mouth or Sauron to justify paying $60 each for them. Though the helmet is tempting me...
  13. Oh wow, they did it. They did it justice. It's amazing. I think the tan for the baseplates is an odd choice, but it doesn't diminish just how incredible this looks. I may need to go sell some of my older sets so I can afford to get 2 copies.

  20. This blows my mind. The Lego is amazing. But what really impresses me is your calculation of all the dates that share a day of the week.
