Tech Artist Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 Here we go, 23 horses squished into a large pick-a-brick cup. Larger photos on my flickr stream. That's amazing. Also, your Flickr page for that is set to private. Would love to see a bigger resolution photo. Quote
splatman Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 Is it just me, or is there a horseload of horsing around going on lately? I know no one can talk to a horse, of course. Quote
antp Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 Would love to see a bigger resolution photo. You can see them by clicking the flickr link in his signature ;) Quote
Tech Artist Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) You can see them by clicking the flickr link in his signature ;) Thank you! It's odd that the ones he posted would link to a private page but whatever. =) Edit: I see a lot of space where some 1x1 pieces or perhaps some plates could have gone.

Cara Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Link fixed. And this photo shows everything that was in the big cup still after removing only the horses. (I used gems and flowers as filler). Quote
Alcarin Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 I wonder, is there anyone inside EU that lives nearby LEGO shop who would be so kind as to be my supplier with LEGO PAB cups? And then ship them to my home.... I would give a list of items I am after and whenever he finds them on the LEGO wall he fills them and ships to me and I pay through paypal or (if larger quantities) through IBAN/Bank transfer (if its not too costly) Send me a message.

rodiziorobs Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) My first trip to PAB! I was with my wife, who graciously allowed me to get a small cup (so I didn't press my luck asking for a large--besides, we spent nearly a half-hour just on a small!). 1st PAB! by rodiziorobs, on Flickr 790 pieces altogether, nearly 300 of them are the 1x1 round tiles, of which I didn't have any before, so I'm happy to have a ton now. I wish I could have snagged some more windows/panes and crates, but I figure getting a little of everything was best. I also got some friends colors, which I like but I never buy the sets because I just can't justify the price when I have no use for the minidolls. Anyway, I think I did good work. P.s. I was at the Murray (Utah, US) store, and they did not have horses. I didn't ask, because I hadn't read this thread recently and wasn't aware horses were a possibility. Edit: my wife just told me she thinks we should go back for another cup :) Edited July 10, 2014 by rodiziorobs Quote
62Bricks Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Was at the LEGO store in Beaverton, Oregon, and got a bunch of 2x2 round column pieces in white, two stacks of white 1x3s, some 1x8 black tiles and for filler a couple handfuls of olive green cheese slopes. Quote
Modelmaker Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 ARGH! I'm so jealous of you guys. I'm stuck in Ireland with no Lego stores and no cups to fill I'd love to get my hands on a wall. Quote
schumiholic Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Hi! I have a request for those of you who have access to Lego PaB wall, preferably in EU, if you'd be so kind. I am looking for some round plates 1x1 for a few creations. If you go to a pab wall and see that they have black and trans light blue round plates 1x1, please let me know. I need 3 large cups: 1 cup and 3/4 of cup of black pieces and 1 cup and 1/4 of cup of trans light blue. I can send you the money through paypal and you can buy them for me and send them to me in Romania. If you can help, please let me know! Thanks! Quote
Ritsz Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 I checked out Brickbuildr and in the Lego Store in Lille (France) it says that there are 3 x 3 Green Plants. Does anyone know wich piece they refer to? Quote
antp Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 It is for the bamboo leaves. It is me who updated the inventory, I wasn't sure what was the right entry for that part. I also had problems for other parts not displaying : horses, 2x6 pink plates, 2x4 lavender & azure plates, 2x2 pink bricks ... Quote

I also had problems for other parts not displaying : horses, 2x6 pink plates, 2x4 lavender & azure plates, 2x2 pink bricks ... Oh Bamboo's. I'd love to pick up a small cup of those.. Do you think there'll be still some left if I go on monday? Quote
antp Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 It was one week ago, and last time I went in January they were already there too if I remember well, so I guess they will still have these. Only thing that may be out of stock is the horses, as the box was nearly empty and I didn't see a new one behind/above ready to replace it. Quote
talos Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 I only got a small cup, was restrained and got just one horse, (I didn't see them till I had the cup mostly full...LOL) there were only about 10 left in the bin. I got a stack of 2x12 plates in LBG, a bunch of 2x8 bricks in white, then filled in the spaces with some black slopes and tiles and those 1x2 handle parts, like on the top of the haunted house, not sure what they are called, I didn't pack it too tightly I guess. I was hoping to find some narrow wheels for all the tires I have, but they only had the wide wheels. Love that mismatch they always seem to have at my store. Quote
Ritsz Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 I hope your right about the bamboo leaves! Last and only time I was there was at the opening. Quote
Speedboat Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 This is my latest haul, a big cup from the store in Hamburg: Quote
antp Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 I hope some day I'll find these 2x2x2 slopes in a store; they seems new for PaB: I do not recall having seen these mentioned previously. Quote
-Horizon- Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I hope some day I'll find these 2x2x2 slopes in a store; they seems new for PaB: I do not recall having seen these mentioned previously. I think I've saw them a while back..... I could be mistaken. Quote
Modelmaker Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 Only getting more jealous now I actually priced how much it would cost me to travel to the nearest store to me but it would be cheaper to buy a new modular set so i'll just do that instead Quote
psdillon Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I actually priced how much it would cost me to travel to the nearest store to me but it would be cheaper to buy a new modular set so i'll just do that instead Could be worse - you could be in Australia like me! Add $30 and 5 weeks delay to every bricklink order. Quote
antp Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I think I've saw them a while back..... I could be mistaken. Possible. I actually meant recently, since they started to "unify" the inventory of PaB walls between all stores ;) Quote
Timinchicago Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I was in the Chicago store last Friday (July 7) and they did not have any horses at that time. Quote
KringlesBricks Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) Went to the PaB wall, again, today - my third visit in the same week! I got 3 small cups - FIRST small cup I was able to fit 360 tan 1x2 45 degree slope pieces. Came to about $.025 per slope piece. I asked the manager if he had green ones...he said not at this time. I want those green slopes so bad...to mix into my river walls SECOND small cup was filled with 32 2x4 tan plates and 40 2x2 dark grey blue bricks - using these pieces for my train track bed THIRD small cup was filled with 220 lime green 1x2 bricks, and filled in with transparent blue 1x1 round pieces Edited July 16, 2014 by KringlesBricks Quote
kibosh Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Why three small cups instead of 1 large and 1 small? With the new pricing, large cups are more economical. Quote
