ZootyCutie Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Recently got Mixels sets 41509 Slumbo and 41515 Kraw. There's a neat secondhand bookstore near me that sells Mixels from Series 2 to 4 for only a dollar more than list price, so I decided to snag a couple of the older ones up. Quote

Do you plan to use them in some historic/Fantasy setting or just using their parts for some MOC? I heard they come with very interesting parts, especially their joints Quote
KyuTsa Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Now its emerald train, LOTR sets, and STs. Its so hard to sustain and maintain multiple armies at the same time.hehe Quote

Vorkosigan Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 I picked up a non-LEGO set while on a trip to Korea that may be of interest to historical fans. It is an ancient Korean fortress, I posted a review in the Community subforum: http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=109571 Quote
tom20arc Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) I missed out on the Hobbit/Lotr sets because I was in my dark ages. From all lego themes these are definitely my favorites so I decided to buy some of the sets because I will probably regret if I didnt buy them So I recently got: (30% off on the first four sets). 1x The Lonely Mountain 1x The Battle of the Five Armies 1x Attack on Lake-town 2x Witch-King Battle 1x Dol Guldur Battle 1x Dol Guldur Ambush 1x Attack of the Wargs 1x An Unexpected Gathering 2x Mirkwood Elf Army 1x Pirate Ship Ambush 1x Battle at the Black Gate Still planning on getting all the LOTR sets I havent got yet and also a 2nd Battle at the Black Gate to make a full gate.

Granduncle Bullroarer Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Finally completed all the Middle earth sets with Battle of the 5 armies, also picked up some gundabad and Morder orcs.. Quote
VintageLegoEra Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 (edited) What a Lucky Day! New in original Polybags, Lego 6010 for only $ usd 14!!!!!....So pleased! Comes with box, instruction manual and catalogue too Edited June 22, 2015 by VintageLegoEra Quote
Deathleech Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Well since it looks like the LotR line is officially done, since there are no interesting LotR Dimension sets coming out (by that I mean containing new parts), and since no other Lego themes currently interest me I decided to go on an army massing spree. I have gotten the following sets in the last few weeks: 1x Wizard Battle 1x Witch King Battle 1x The Lonely Mountain As well as BrickLinked the crap out of the following 2x Cave Troll 2x Goblin King 2x Gray Wargs 20x White Forehead paint Gundabad Orcs 20x Regular Gundabad Orcs 60x Mordor Orcs Quote
Horsecreek Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Well since it looks like the LotR line is officially done, since there are no interesting LotR Dimension sets coming out From the latest promotion video there was a short clip with Sauron. Quote
Granduncle Bullroarer Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Holy crap that is a nice haul..

Isundir Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Finally got my first Castle set since I was erh maybe 10, the Kingdoms Joust, and it's pretty damn great. Also picked up a bunch more of the Red Lion Knight guys (dunno their official name) because that Gold Lion symbol is pretty much exactly the Dutch Lion which is pretty gosh darn awesome. Quote

ZCerberus Posted July 2, 2015 Posted July 2, 2015 Ghostbusters That is a historic theme acquisition? I'd be more tolerant if you were a long time member who was a regular in history. Please be more mindful of topic's purpose. Quote
Vorkosigan Posted July 2, 2015 Posted July 2, 2015 Finally picked up the Battle of Five Armies. I was on the fence about getting it at all but seeing it at Target for 30% off I figured it was now or never. Quote
Isundir Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Looks interesting!....Any photos? :) I'll be posting a picture of my first small Castle Army in the 'Post your Castle Armies here' thread or what that is called, the set will be in the background. I'm just still waiting for 2 more Minifigs to come in the mail. (If you really want me to I could take some more pictures of it though.) Edited July 3, 2015 by Isundir Quote
VintageLegoEra Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 Ahhhh....Very pleased, Here is the New 6010 ( Supply Wagon ) off ebay for Just $14...ENJOY! Quote
Deathleech Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Haha, I love that sales pitch. "Look at all the exciting toys that this set can build"! A Wagon! A smaller wagon! A wagon with no wheels! And lastly... a pack for your horse. The possibilities are endless! Anyhoo, nice find Edited July 4, 2015 by kabel please do not quote pics Quote

Anyhoo, nice find It appears to me the 'wagon with no wheels' is like a plow to farm the land, given the position of the axe, which is kind of nice. Quote
VintageLegoEra Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) It appears to me the 'wagon with no wheels' is like a plow to farm the land, given the position of the axe, which is kind of nice. True, as back then this was a very common tool/Technique to harvest the Grounds. Even in today time, some are using the same Technique! :) Edited July 4, 2015 by VintageLegoEra Quote
Wardancer Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 3 Poison Ivys for 8 Euro each! To make seductive forest nymphs. Quote

LAKAbricks Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Well, I can see it has been a while since I got my last Castle set, the 7189 Mill Village Raid, probably three years ago or so. Except for the wonderful 10223 Kingdoms Joust, newer sets have not really appealed to me. - Maybe next time... Or if I find a really good offer Edited July 6, 2015 by laka Quote
