August 20, 201113 yr Picked up 17 series 5 minifigures from FiveBelow. The clerk says "that's a lot of money for a bunch of Lego guys". I said " yeah, I know".
August 20, 201113 yr Lots of parts from Bricklink including loads of cheese! Tiles galore from S@H PAB and some mushrooms from Brickforge. Good times all round.
August 20, 201113 yr It was ages ago since I bought sets, then I stumbled on this deal: 7895 City of Atlantis: 42 EUR (instead of 70 EUR) 7977 Seabed Strider: 6 EUR (insted of 10 EUR) 8061 Gateway of the Squid: 24 (insted of 40 EUR) I only collect LEGO Harry Potter and the Collectable Minifigures, so I almost never buy big sets of other series, but these sets have awesome parts and minifigures. First build the sets, then scavenge them for parts. :) For those fellow Belgians: Dreamland (Roeselare in my case) is the place to be!
August 20, 201113 yr Was SUPPOSED TO get my Brickmaster City book yesterday but, crappy ol' Canada Post screwed the pooch yet AGAIN! Gawd they suck! I'd better get it Monday, because if I don't, they'll be hearing from me one MORE time. Ugh. I wish Amazon would switch back to using Purolator, or even UPS. Neither of those two sucked anywhere NEAR as bad as Canada Post does.
August 20, 201113 yr My last order: 10216 - Winter Village Bakery 10219 - Maersk Train 8870 - Light Set 8879 - IR Speed Remote Control 8882 - XL-Motor 8884 - IR Receiver (x2) 88000 - AAA Battery Box (x2) 88002 - Train Motor
August 20, 201113 yr 2521 Lightning Dragon Battle 2509 Earth Dragon Defense No HP trolley polybag though, bummer. Please do a review of the Lightning Dragon- no one else has yet! Anyway, my last purchase was the Republic Frigate and the new Hoth Echo Base at TRU. I got the base at half off with a receipt from that sale they had a while back!
August 21, 201113 yr Not exactly today, but last week on a trip to Berlin, I bought 7965 Millennium Falcon :)
August 23, 201113 yr A combo auction of 6631 Steam Shovel and 6594 Gas Transit for a total of $11.49 and an unopened video tape of the 8457 Power Puller for about "tree fiddy"
August 23, 201113 yr My first Star Wars sets 8089 Hoth Wampa Cave an 8092 Luke's Landspeeder. I want more!!!!!!!!!!!
August 23, 201113 yr My first Star Wars sets 8089 Hoth Wampa Cave an 8092 Luke's Landspeeder. I want more!!!!!!!!!!! Moral of the story: If you're short on money, never buy Star Wars. You'll just want more.
August 23, 201113 yr It has some new cool parts (chocolate ice cream) and also some cool minifig parts. I will probably be listing the actual Sponge Bob figure on Bricklink soon. 3816 Glove World
August 23, 201113 yr 2260 Ice Dragon Attack 10198 Tantive IV 10219 Maersk Train Bonus: lady gave me 5 30141 Jetpack(!)
August 25, 201113 yr Got the camper for my daughter. And for me, my first Technic set: 8067 Mini Mobile Crane. It's pretty awesome, very different from System building, very satisfying seeing how everything comes together. I wish I could afford one of the bigger Technic sets, but I can't even afford to get all the System sets I've got my eye on.
August 25, 201113 yr Just picked up set 8160 Speed Racer Cruncher Block & Racer X at a local toy shop for $30. Pretty good for a three year old set and that it was $40 when it came out.
August 26, 201113 yr I went shopping earlier and snagged 7978 Angler Attack on sale for £10, and 8424 Mater's Spy Zone for £5. I only went out for a magazine...

August 26, 201113 yr Just got me a 7964 Republic Frigate! Can't wait to build it! (I'm waiting for the Hurricane to hit so I can spend the day inside.)
August 27, 201113 yr My TRU finally had some Series 5 CMFs in stock. I spent some time feeling up packets and ended up with a Dwarf (the one I was most hoping for), a Gladiator, Eskimo (Inuit?) Fisherman, and Lizard Suit Man. Those are all the ones I most wanted from this series, so I'm ecstatic. Great figures for fantasy scenarios, and now I don't feel like I HAVE to go buy some old Fantasy Castle set just so I can have at least one Dwarf. Of course, I do still need some trolls...
August 27, 201113 yr I finally completed series 5 today. I absolutely love the pie that comes with the clown. I think I'll pick up a few more of these guys just for those pies!
