August 14, 200915 yr I got 7196 Chauchilla Cemetery Battle and 7197 Venice Canal Chase from a little store called The Sentry. I walked in, and to my left there was a pile of the cardboard boxes with purple stripes, so I looked for the numbers and just asked him to one of each out for me. They are very nice there.
August 15, 200915 yr Just ordered two giant orders from BL. So happy about the ordered parts. I am done with shopping for a six month or a year
August 15, 200915 yr Yesterday I got the Cave Crusher. It's AMAZING. One of the best sets of the year, IMO. The only cons I can think of are an extra miner and beefing up the midle section a bit. I also found it at Kmart which isstrange because I thought it was exclusive.
August 16, 200915 yr Oh, yes. I love my grandparents! They got me this big bag of LEGO pieces from a huge carboot sale/flea market (rommelmarkt) and I like it! I've cleaned it and I am now going to sort it and make the possible sets that are in it. They said the people who sold it also had other bags of LEGO and baseplates. I think with all those bags and baseplates you could make all the sets. These are the ones that are in it, although not complete (at first sight, do you spot others?): - 6597: Century Skyway: (only) helicopter, airplane and control tower - 6571: Flame Fighters: whole set, except for figures and baseplate - 4714: Gringott's bank: some parts, including the goblins, yay. So, consider me very happy. :) I'll make what I can make out of it, but I'll probably part it out. And yay for first Fabuland figure, in new condition. Edited August 16, 200915 yr by Matn
August 16, 200915 yr (at first sight, do you spot others?): Well, it is a tiny little picture but I can spot set 6244 Armada Sentry in there, including the baseplate... Good luck sorting!
August 16, 200915 yr Just won this off ebay for £8 including shipping! Nice! Even two Indian canoes.Really good buy, I would say.
August 16, 200915 yr Just five boxes: 7632 : City Crawler Crane (present for a friend) 7667 : Dropship (had to get an extra 'spare' before they all get sold out) 7669 : Anakins Starfighter (A few Euros off list price and another R2!) 8015 : Assassins Battle Pack (realised that I didn't have one - so just for the collection) Game : Lava Dragon (surprisingly good game with a great amount of playtime - recommended) Might go back next week to pick up a couple of boxes of Hailfire droids.
August 18, 200915 yr I got Sepertist Shuttle on sale and got 1 more Chrome Stormtrooper. Thet was the last one they has there.
August 18, 200915 yr Recently my mom and I went to some local yardsales, and I happened to find an almost complete Insectoids 6919 Planetary Prowler that I bought for two dollars! I already owned this set, but my first copy has a lot of the parts glued together (don't ask, horrible child memory), so I'll be using the new copy as a display copy and junk the old one for parts. Oh, and did I mention that it had a few extra pieces in it, like some extra palm tree leaves and a bush? Edited August 18, 200915 yr by Grevious
August 20, 200915 yr I had a £10 pound voucher for forbidden planet so i brought the clone wars Y-wing and the boba fett "you mean a lot to me" T-shirt.
August 20, 200915 yr Pirate Tank Squidman Escape Dark Side Magnets Silver Stormie 5 figures from PAB, with Jedi hoods which were not supposed to be in the tub. I got em all! 7 large fences from Turbo Car Chase from PAB, along with 11 moutain parts all for £6.
August 20, 200915 yr Today I purchased Indiana Jones' 7195 Ambush in Cairo. I really love Indy's new torso And I really like the scimitar (?) and the black torso as well Toodles ! CF W
August 20, 200915 yr I received the Green Grocer and the chrome Storm Trooper today via the mail Ordered it from shop@home last monday and asked normal shipping! That's fast if you ask me... Ground floor is already build, rest will follow this weekend and then I can place it next to my Cafe Corner and Market Street. Finally complete!
August 21, 200915 yr I technically didn't buy them today, but Echo Base finally came off of backorder, adn I got the sepratist shuttle about a week ago. Currently building a lightbox so I can start reviewing.
August 21, 200915 yr I really like the scimitar (?) Try "BUTS": Big Ugly Troll Sword. (I'm not saying they're ugly, just that they aren't nearly as good as the real Lego scimitars would have been in this set. )
August 22, 200915 yr I just placed my first BrickForge order. It consists of: Black Beret Dark Gray Crowbar Dark Blue-gray Plasma Blaster Tan Pig (It will make a good mother for the upcoming official piglet set!) Dark Gray Particle Pack Dark Gray Particle Gun And a red Crowbar (Forum exclusive! ... Ooops. )
August 22, 200915 yr I bought the Echo Base set as well as the IJ Ambush in Cairo set. As well, I finally built the troll battle wheel I got on clearance.
August 23, 200915 yr I bought the Echo Base set as well as the IJ Ambush in Cairo set. As well, I finally built the troll battle wheel I got on clearance. At Wal-Mart?
August 23, 200915 yr At Wal-Mart? I was at Wal-mart today and they had some of the new SW. Echo base was sold out though. They had the sep. shuttle, Battle of Endor, tank droid, Anakin's Y-wing, and Midi falcon though. I got the corporate alliance tank droid and the two SPIII impulses.
August 23, 200915 yr Bought Ambush in Cairo the other day as well like a few others (discounted price at Target). I really don't mind the sword since I can just use it in one of my troll MOCs. The torsos are actually pretty good for Jedi robes as well.
August 23, 200915 yr Well I went to the the new LEGO store in Honolulu, HI (opened last week) And I bought: 10194 Emerald Night 7639 Camper Got back today and I can't wait to build them
