  1. You might want to reach out to Istokg over at Brickset or on his website: The Unofficial LEGO Sets/Parts Collectors Guide - Home (weebly.com)
  2. As an additional note, it looks like the track is back in stock on Amazon at retail price: Amazon.com: LEGO City Tracks 60205 Building Kit (20 Pieces), Multicolor : Toys & Games. They also sell TrixBrix (bought my first set today): Amazon.com: Trixbrix Double Straight Tracks Box 10pcs Compatible with Lego City Train Sets 60197 60198 10277 60205 60238 : Toys & Games edit: even the passenger train is available: https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Passenger-Train-60197-Building/dp/B07CC37F63/ref=sr_1_26?crid=1EAHQ45MRJUOX&keywords=lego+trains&qid=1645126486&sprefix=lego+trains%2Caps%2C174&sr=8-26
  3. I've found that the Photo Paper Direct glossy vinyl sticker paper to produce a decent result--though, for some reason, I can't get dark bluish gray to print correctly on them.
  4. Anyone think we'll see Halloween Trooper Poe and Pumpkin BB-8 next year?
  5. Just a random tidbit that may be helpful to those in the US using the Akro-Mils drawers--Avery 8195 labels are the perfect size for the ends of the small drawers.
  6. Does anyone remember the LEGO Studios sets? I LOVED them as a child. I spent hours making grainy movies with silly effects wishing that I had a better digital camera. Vydio is the modern, updated, smartphone, TikTok version of it. It's a reasonably safe way for younger kids to do with bricks what their elder siblings are doing on TikTok. People predicting gloom and doom for LEGO haven't seen the lines outside the LEGO store (in the middle of pandemic!) for new set releases. Recent Creator releases (and other adult sets) are some of the true masterpieces in company history. The only thing I wish LEGO would do is produce more sets in the "pocket money"/allowance range, but those have probably also increased with inflation.

  8. It was probably early 2000s, but there was a LEGO Outlet in Dawsonville, Georgia that I went to as a kid. The only thing I really remember about the "look" was that it had LEGO studded carpeting.
  9. Hello, Has anyone found a specific model of printer or printer settings (from Photoshop) to be particularly successful in matching the LEGO color spectrum? I'm particularly trying to match dark bluish gray and tan/dark tan. I've tried the original Classic-Castle color chart, the peeron chart, the 2016 official chart, etc. I'm printing on PPD vinyl sticker paper, but the results have been less than stellar lately. Thanks for your help!
  10. The Ikea Linnmon 59" x 29.5" table works well as it's approximately 6 32x32 baseplates wide by 3 baseplates deep.
  11. Does Amazon ship to you? They usually have the exclusive sets (at least in the US). I'd imagine a large retailer would likely have better deals than Bricklink unless you can find someone willing to ship to you at cost.
  12. mdtvandy changed their profile photo
  13. What do you think are the best sets produced by LEGO for acquiring pieces to build (Brickmania-style) WW2 military models? I found 76019 and 75972 to have a significant number of useful parts. What are your favorites?
  14. Has anyone figured out a way to make the Akro-Mils cabinets with drawers more mobile? A cart or something?
  15. Hello everyone, I've made some decals for Anglican priests, bishops, and Diocesan shields for my cathedral project. Here are the stickers: Priest Choir Dress Archbishop's staff And some Diocesan Shields: St. Matthew St. Luke St. John St Peter St Mark Blessed Virgin Mary Four Evangelists Christ Church Cathedral and Ovoid Archbishop of Canterbury The Episcopal ChurchThe Episcopal Diocese of Washington The Episcopal Diocese of Tennessee Let me know your thoughts and any requests for other Diocese or Churches!
  16. Does anyone know if the Aquaman in the TRU starter set is different from the one in the FunPack? Do some of the PS4 Aquaman sets also have Supergirl?
