REVIEW: 8684 LEGO Minifigures Series 2
escortmad79 replied to WhiteFang's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Wouldn't call it racism, more like stereotyping, the same as if TLG were to produce a Scotsman minifig with bright orange hair, tammy, a kilt & a set of bagpipes or an Englishman with a suit, bowler hat, briefcase & newspaper/umbrella (Please TLG? ) -
Selling huge amount of old roads (MISB)

How much? -
Nice, think I'll need to try my local Tesco to see if they have one or two I bought another ninja & another clown from series 1 minifigs (even though I vowed no more from this series! )

No kidding in the UK! I've NEVER seen one!

2nd barcode will be removed after series 2 but there will probably be another way of telling what's in a bag I reckon. -

Hopefully the Ferrari driver will have a champagne bottle to celebrate his win rather than a trophy. Hopefully the baseball play will have a new bat rather than the old brown carrot! -
They do when stuck in a sandwich Mmmmm bacon!!!

Where did you get the promos from?
-
BL or eBay will be your best bet to get one

Picked this up for £14.99 from Argos clearance a few weeks ago. The pigs are fantastic but the torso's we have seen before & the tractor is stupidly oversized! Put it on a road plate & it takes up both lanes!

Wait until next week & you'll be able to buy as many as you want in the UK! -
If you had to collect it all over again...
escortmad79 replied to David Thomsen's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Some I would & some I wouldn't. I'd definately buy Emerald Night & Green Grocer again but some of the smaller City sets I have bought I certainly wouldn't -
Didn't buy them but went to my Fiancees aunts house tonight & I ended up getting given a load of promotional Lego packs from a newspaper they had in a drawer: 5627 Dozer 4991 Police helicopter 5626 Coastguard bike 4992 Fire boat 4938 Fire 4x4 7997 Creator biplane 7604 Creator Triceratops 7872 Creator Creature

Wish I could find the b***dy thing!! I've not been able to find this set & the 2 Kingdoms impulse sets anywhere in the UK (aside from Lego.com, which with added postage makes them quite expensive!) Don't know why they're so hard to find in the UK, but they are!!

Minifg collectors series 2 pics and barcodes

Spoke to my local TRU this morning & one of the staff reckon they could be in next Tuesday -
I came out of my dark age last Christmas. I jokingly asked my fiancee for some Lego for Christmas so she bought me a tub. I also saw the stuff Jamie Berard had designed, Cafe Corner & Emerald Night in particular & decided I had to have them! Unfortunately I was too late to get Cafe Corner as it had been discontinued by the time I came out of my dark age but did get the Emerald Night set for my birthday & then bought Green grocer shortly afterwards. I bought one of the original sets I had when I was a child from BL auctions when they were up & running & keep looking on ebay for other sets I had. Since Christmas I have purchased a whole heap of stuff (All of which is recorded on my about me page) with a view to creating a Lego City when my fiancee & I move into our own place again

It better be finished by March 2012, my fiancee & I are looking to spend our honeymoon in Florida so we can visit Disney world, the Harry Potter themepark & of course Legoland Florida We're a couple of big kids!

There is a very long history of female authors using a male name when writing book, likewise there are male authors that write romance novels under a female name -

It appears they're releasing them every 3-4 months Series 1 = May 2010 Series 2 = September 2010 Series 3 = January 2011 Series 4 = April 2011 Series 5 = Possibly July/August 2011 if they do release one? -
3221 City truck Was meant to be going to an auction to bid on a load of classic space Lego, thought they'd get through maybe 100 lots an hour. Arrived an hour & a half after the auction began only to hear "Lot 233 then..." as I walked through the door! Ahhhh f***!!!! The lots I wanted were 205-211! So turned around & walked back out! Bought the above set at Tesco on the way home!

Another new fire station? Ditto! Will be spending my hard earned on Minifig collection figs & then older sets from eBay & BL orders for MOCs!
