What did you buy today?

[dr_spock]

6 random mini-figs.

[Zorbas]

Those Kingdoms sets look great! The big surprise is that they had the 7950 for 4 euros and it was only today I discovered that a normal price is around 7. Cheaper LEGO in Greece? They made a mistake in pricing I guess.

I recently acquired a complete (minus the anchor string) 6274 Caribbean Clipper, I just picked up 2 of the farmer and wizard impulses from the lego store....and... Any day now, I should be getting my order of series 2 mini-figs.

Very fruitful day for me...

I went to Target on the tip off from Brickset that they had Collectible Minifigures series 2. I looked, and they did. (Thank God for Brickset!!!)

The boxes were pretty picked over, and I only had money for twelve. Okay. So I whip out my barcode sheet on my iPod, only to find... That I had the British Barcodes. Shit.

So, I randomly picked 12. Here are the results, and a mini-review for each.

1 Lifeguard. I was pretty impressed with this one. Very nice body print and leg print.

1 Witch. I love this one, surprisingly. I absolutely adore the printing.

1 70's DJ. Oh. My. Gosh. He looks exactly like my father did in the 70's...

3 Traffic Cops. I was kind of disappointed that three were traffic cops. I would have been happier with one, but what can I do? Nice printing, I love the Speeding Ticket.

1 Mime. I laughed at this one. The three heads did it for me.

1 Pop singer. She's very... Pink. Her hair reminds me of Faith Hill.

1 Weight lifter. I like him, especially the look on his face

1 Karate Master. I love the Dooku hair in black. The trophies are awesome.

1 Ring Master. Meh, not my favorite. Would have preferred a pharaoh.

1 Spartan. (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Seeing as the box was pretty well harvested, I did not expect to get him. My favorite of the bunch that I got.

Broke my foot last week playing football so im pretty depressed. Perfect chance to build some models though as i cant do much but sit on my backside for 2 months!

Just ordered the modular Firestation which i cant wait to build, comes with a free creator helicopter which is good. Got a bricklink order for the minifig competition too. Spent more than the prizes are worth on pieces but i guess thats not the point

Sorry to hear about your foot, that's bad luck. Though that's exactly how I got into the Lego hobby. Lego is a great thing to do when you're suffering with broken bones...unless you break both of your elbows. Then that's just difficult....

Anyway, I recently bought the Snowtrooper Battlepack, and will hopefully be buying a second Clone Walker battle pack before they disappear soon, if I can find one.

I need pistols and Clone Trooper gear...and the walker will go great with my Imperial Army.

Oh I also managed to snag another Manta Warrior set for £2.50 before the prices went up to £3.00

1 Witch. I love this one, surprisingly. I absolutely adore the printing.

D'oh!!! You got a witch! Glad to hear it... I ordered two from a BL store before I got any random figures from S@H, but NONE of my Targets (x4 now), TRU (x2) or LEGO Store had ANY figures. Outside the contest, I want to make a larger "Witches from Hamlet" vignette.

To this date, I still have yet to see a pack in a brick and mortar store, the only ones I've seen I got online.

That said, in the spirit of the thread, I tried to order 16 more from S@H, and so far they haven't complained. It's been a few weeks, so maybe they let it slide... but I'm not holding my breath. To bulk up the order so that I didn't have to pay shipping, I also got:

• Wizard (x2)
  
• Jester (x2)
  
• Prison Carriage Rescue (x2... to make a large wagon)
  
• Outpost Attack

First time I buy a SW set and it for my son.

[Diaaabo]

Traded some minifigs, today the cheerleader and the nurse arrived by mail. Plastic issues aside, they look lovely I'm probably going to enter the EB contest with them

[kostasm13]

Just got yesterday the midi scale Millenium Falcon (7778).

It's my first Star Wars set.

I'm not a huge Star Wars fan, but this was a very beautiful set.

[SilentMode]

Treated myself to set 3222 (Helicopter and Limo) via the Lego online store.

[Diaaabo]

And just ordered some more minifigs: Clone Pilot from 8088 & Onaconda Farr.

[CF Mitch]

[fenrir]

[Soundmanred]

Took advantage of the "Buy 2 Get 1 Free" sale at Toys R Us!

Got Spongebob's Good Neighbors Set, the Kingdoms Prison Tower Rescue set, and the City Train Station set.

Spongebob's house was cooler than I expected, and the other two have yet to be opened yet!

Also got some Series 2 Minifigs at Wal Mart (surprisingly!). Got a Mariachi Man, Surfer, Skiier, Vampire, Lifeguard, Mime, Spartan, Witch, Cop, and Pop Star. They have an almost full box, so I'll go back for the rest tomorrow!

CITY #8401

[Hey75]

A small reward for my son, his second SW set.

[fred67]

Arrived: new set of 16 random Series 2 figures from S@H... don't have the patience to list them all, but no spartans, no pop singer, no vampire, no explorer... that's twice, two sets of 16, both without any of those.

Also got:

Got two prison carriage rescues to make one good cart with two horses.

A small reward for my son, his second SW set.

Nice reward! I'm sure he deserved it... it's great being a dad.
