JohnTPT17 Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 Dang... I wish those mushroom pieces were cheaper. And the hat/cloak from the main villain dude. At least the sloth shirt is on there for a good price - I might need to get that one for my mom at some point, she loves sloths. Quote

Now all the good stuff will be OOS when I go to place an order Because they are very good at knowing how to maximize profit! In the past I've refused to be rushed to buy PaB pieces, but the really short shelf life of some of them is concerning. I don't feel compelled to get any of these without the double VIP or GWP though, but I may stay up late on Friday night to do it at midnight. Quote
Capybara554321 Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 If they wanted to maximize profits they should have the option to add the full fig at once. Quote
Clone OPatra Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 Oof some of these prices are incredibly rough. Over $2 each for the cool swords!? And what's with Bo-Katan's hair being over $2 as well? I'm used to that meaning it's going to be a limited mould (like that Wonder Woman villain's hair in the WW84 set, which was quite expensive), but haven't we already seen the mould recoloured in upcoming Chinese Festival sets?

eldiano Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 Dude, the postal service has been pissing me off, my order was in delivery since the 1st, i got one part of my order that was delivered yesterday, but today it was supposed to be delivered today, but the mailman can’t find it on his truck. 😭 Quote

I had a Bricklink package that was shipped on the October 21st, that has bounced all over the country (including my town TWICE since then) and has yet to be delivered. I've given up on ever seeing it, as tracking has stopped updating as of Nov. 6th. More to the topic, those sword prices are OUCH! I really want Mr. Oz's hairpiece, but I'm not paying those prices for it! Edited November 14, 2023 by Murdoch17 Quote
upliftingbricks Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 Looks like the horses have had a sneaky 0.65 increase in price since the new parts have been added. Used to be 4.49 now 5.14 in my country Quote
Clone OPatra Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 While in the context of how much we feel like LEGO should be charging some of these feel bad, in the context of how much people are charging on Bricklink, these Dreamzzz parts' prices look much more favourable. Take the Nightmare King for instance. Lowest BL price in the US is $17. On PaB all up he's about $6.30. Night Hunter's lowest US price on BL is $13, and roughly the same at Nightmare King on PaB. That's still not "good", but it's better than when viewed out of context. Quote

Funny story, when I was writing this I caught up with the mailman, he already had delivered the mail from my box and when I got my kids to get it, no lego order. I drove around the neighborhood and caught up to him and asked him if he had it, his scanner showed that he had it with him still but we drove back to my mailbox to see if it he delivered it to wrong box and searched his truck for a good 4 minutes and nothing. I told him, thanks and sorry for that issue. 20 minutes later he drives back to my house to deliver it saying he found it under a pile of boxes. This is my loot for today: Quote

BrickMatit Posted November 15, 2023 Posted November 15, 2023 For anyone who is interested, both imperial faction torso (governor 6444301 and soldier 6444336) from Eldorado Fortress are in stock. Quote

I’m super easy to read haha, I am in the middle of it, I am just waiting on lego to deliver my bestseller order that was place two weeks ago that’s back ordered for some odd reason. I dislike the fact that the fort looks weird with yellow accents rather than yellow. I also want to redo the governors office since it’s small. I have enough yellow pieces to replace the round canon area and raise it a bit however I’m missing like one or two yellow bricks. I thought I was slick by timing my orders where I thought the bestsellers would get there first considering their turnaround time but nope, nothing but delays. Haha Quote
karrit Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 (edited) Looks like most of the retiring PAB parts have been removed from the US website. Looks like the ones that are listed as bestsellers are still available for now. Edited November 17, 2023 by karrit Quote
RichardGoring Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 Well that's irritating, as my order will be going in tonight when double VIP starts! Sigh. I don't think there was anything I really wanted though, so still comfortable with the decision to risk it. Quote
Sir Dano Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 My order from the 1st finally arrived: I really should have ordered more soldier appropriate heads, I'm running low. Quote

Unfortunately New Elementary also seems to have removed the pictures they had up of the retiring parts so I can't search that way anymore either. Quote
MKJoshA Posted November 19, 2023 Posted November 19, 2023 Well, I managed to order Blue-Coat torsos and Orcas for double points yesterday. I'm still seeing the parts that are due to leave B&Ps. Ordered a calf and a baby sheep as well as the exiting Viking torso. The red spaceman was still OOS, but its been that way for weeks. now. Quote
RichardGoring Posted November 19, 2023 Posted November 19, 2023 I was putting together orders for some of the Bricklink MOC Pop up sets yesterday and kept running into an upper limit error on best seller parts, which was frustrating when trying to get to the GWP threshold. But it's seemingly not a specific number, with both being in the 900 parts range, but not the same. Got my Majisto and winter market stalls though. Now, will everything arrive before Christmas so I can build them over the holidays? Hmmm... Quote

Here it especially says till when you have to order your parts to get them till christmas (normal parts are 20th november). So you should be able to get them in time, although you never know. But last order I put arrived pretty quickly, though I think there are a lot orders placed on insiders, so it might take some more time till they arrive than back then. Quote

It has been in stock several times lately, but sell out very quick. Now I belive that the parts are gone until they show up in a new set.. Quote
eldiano Posted November 20, 2023 Posted November 20, 2023 LOL, my best seller order from November 1st, is still back ordered, meanwhile my standard bricks from the same order got shipped from Europe. The best sellers were just white and yellow bricks. Quote
Clone OPatra Posted November 21, 2023 Posted November 21, 2023 Capes from the Disney Castle and Hocus Pocus set have shown up OOS. I wonder what other minifigure parts from those sets we might see. I'd like the light grey classic skellie heads from Hocus Pocus personally. Quote
