WhiteFang Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Yesterday, I went and bought crazy lots of LEGO sets. There is one particular item, which is a great bargain for me! 5618 Troll Warrior x 12 7040 Dwarf Mine Defender x 1 7048 Troll Warship x 2 7627 Temple of the Crystal Skull x 1 The best buy of the all, is the 5517 Creative Barrel, XXL 1800. I bought it for approx USD$59 after discount. With a total amount of 1800 bricks, there are a pool of white, black, blue, red, green, orange, lime and etc in that huge barrel. It's fanastic to have this barrel to start with, for your bricks storage, to build a MOC, restoration or whatever with it. Therefore, one brick will cost roughly about $0.03 cents. Singapore, do not have pick a brick, unlike other countries. Some shops do offer similar services, but charge at a very steep price. Furthermore, this set was discounted at about 35% off retail price and it was actually released in 2007, around Christmas period. This is the breakdown from Peeron. Quote
Dragonator Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Well, true to my word, I have just got back from another shopping outing, with the Peril in Peru set at the top of the list. I ended up spending a bit more than planned, but hey, it's 20% off, so I may as well. Firstly I got 7628 Peril in Peru. I'm looking forward to building that! Next, I finally got the At-AP Walker (7671), with a 25% discount. Then came one each of the 7667 Imperial Dropship and the 7668 Rebel Scout Speeder, both at 20% off. Finally, I got another Air Mail set (7732) at 25% off and the 7725 River Ambush set at just over 20% off. All in all, not a bad haul if I must say so myself. Now I really need to let my bank card recover, it has been being used far to much recently! Quote
CopMike Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Found the 10124 Wright Flyer from 2003 in a toy shop in Cannes, France at discount price €45 ! CopMike Quote
Stash2Sixx Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 XBOX 360 Indy LEGO game. OMG!!!!!! I thought I would never see that set again. AWESOME FIND! Copmike is a hunter! LOL Quote
WisrthanU Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 I bought some spare pieces and the new Creator Beach house. (Worth $30 but no good interior.) Quote

CopMike Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 Today I got 50 of the Fabuland monkey 4: Now I need a sh-tload of bananas ! And a Fabuland bunny 4 key chain also: CopMike Quote
The Rancor Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 (edited) I wonder how much those simians cost? I just bought 7631 Jetpack Pursuit. It should come soon... Edited July 11, 2008 by The Rancor Quote
Hinckley Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 Today I got 50 of the Fabuland monkey 4: Now I need a sh-tload of bananas ! Is this going to lead us to a new trend of "My Fabuland Army" threads? What a great idea! *runs off for Fabuland figs and weapons, camera in hand...* *imagines stop motion marching* Quote
The Cobra Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 7737 Coast Guard 4WD & Jet Scooter (my first CG set; a couple of quads and a couple of kayaks will follow). Quote

Shoc Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I was just browsing, and saw this... Today I got 50 of the Fabuland monkey 4: Whyever do you need so many??!! Many other Fabulandless people could have bought most of them! And a Fabuland bunny 4 key chain also: From Bricklink or somewhere? If I may ask, where were these originally sold? Legoland? :skull: Quote
LordGalewind Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Just bought the 8295 Telehandler and it should be here tuesday. That only leaves the excavator to complete TECHNIC '08. Quote
Dragonator Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 I just received my most recent BrickForge order today. These things are amazing! The detail is astounding; they are some of the best customs I have ever seen. The MegaGun is much better than I expected, the pictures really don't do it justice, and the detail on the space marine armour is fantastic. I also love the gladiator helmet and face-guard, as well as all the other Roman weapons. Just great! I accidentally missed a couple of the new items off my purchase, so I'll probably be making another one sometime soon. Quote
Hewman Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 A 9V cross track. Sure it doesn't sound exciting but it allows me to use up all those curved pieces of track I couldn't find a use for before. Quote
Brainbox Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Picked up Swamp Raid and Gold Hunt on Saturday. Saved some money too, as the shop had (for no apparant reason) Swamp Raid priced at £11.23. Not a complaint mind. Quote
