  1. The guy paid $65 for it, wouldn't that make the official price $60?
  2. http://mostlybricks.com/2009/12/14/preview...nstruct-a-buzz/ They will have a full review up when he/she has the time.
  3. My only complaint with the train is it seems too tall but that is the "minifigures" fault. Plus don't forget the great ignore feature everyone. I suggest EVERYONE use it if they have a problem.
  4. I collect Hess Trucks, and The USA Proof Sets (Coins), and gardening / plant/ nature books.
  5. Great use of those interesting corner pieces for the overhang.
  6. It's already the year 2012!??! We have less than a week to live!!!! Serious why does it say 09.12.12. Since when did year go first? It's 12-12-09 no matter if it's the stupid American way of the European way. In no way, shape, form, is it 09.12.12.
  7. I forgot all about this wonderful set! I own all of OE except this set and some little $10 one! I'm so mad at myself for never buying it, I was hoping to get it on sale like EVERY other set in the theme I bought, but sadly that never happened. This is LEGO in it's prime and I wish it sold better so Johny Thunder hasn't thrown under the bus. Of course if it did sell better I wouldn't get most of the sets for 75% off.
  8. You forgot, cows, pigs, polar bears, frogs, owls, bats. I really do believe we will get LEGO Zoo within 1-3 years.
  9. No because it's a LEGO Train and not a real one! To me the bear looks like and Orient Expedition "monster". http://www.brickset.com/detail/?Set=7411-1 In that case it is somewhat build-able.
  10. I saw the son and dad one and loved it. I'd love it more if LEGO didn't rip parents off on the price of the bulk boxes the last several years.
  11. I think the TS3 dump truck is the ugliest set we have seen so far for 2010. At first I thought it was a Duplo set until I saw the cabin roof piece that every vehicle has. Ick.
  12. I'm guessing it will be $50USD. It really needs another minifigure, human or monster.
  13. The Carrier is nice but not $65, not $60 nice and not even $50 nice.
  14. I don't. I try with Brickset, but it says I only have something like 150,000 pieces and 300ish mini figures. I counted the pieces in sets I got a few years in 2001 I think and I had 58,000 in them alone. I counted my minifigures around then too and I had close to 400. So they are off and I'm off.
  15. I bought my first LEGO Train in 2003. It was that ugly blue, white, and black set from 1999 I think. I hate the set. However it was $50, plus $10 for shipping and $3 for tax... BS tax... So year LEGO Trains need to make a come back to stores.
  16. Same with the camel in PoP, it was wood I think. The pig tractor set is much smaller than the helicopter and limo. The pig set is most likely $30-35, maybe $40 because it's a Farm set. However if the fire Helicopter is $40, and that just comes with a little car than the blue version of it with a "big" limo will be at least $40, more likely $50.
  17. It's so you know what direction the wind is coming from.
  18. The Impulse sets at mine are $6-$7, so it will actually be more than the car. Stupid TRU.
  19. Ummm.... Am I looking at the same set as you? This is one of the best brick built buildings LEGO has made recently that doesn't cost $150.
  20. 502 pieces for $50 is a good price in any line and an amazing price in the Toy Story line. Very cute set.
  21. Small LEGO planes are always too much, it's why I never bought the awesome Mail Plane. That new piece seems completely useless to me. I really wish LEGO would make some new City faces and torsos. They make new torsos for all the other themese everyu year and City can't get a couple? Even a "new" face from a different theme, anything new. I'm sick of buying 5 different sets and they all have the same 2 minifigures.
  22. Most of the super packs in recent years have been random City sets. I think they are kind of stupid, you don't save enough money by buying them.
  23. I'm Jewish. OK not really, but still, don't be a jerk any time of the year, more so because Jesus wasn't born on Christmas.
  24. The Impulse sets are very nice, I wish they would have them in stores where I feel an IMPULSE TO BUY THEM!
  25. There is always the chance someone opened the box, stole the bag for the minifigure parts, and then resealed it. I think that happened a Batman set I had, I "ordered" like 70 "replacements". I had one mistake in that (A minifigures head, Ridler?) and then ordered that as soon as I heard Batman ended.
