I blame her. Quote
Little Brix Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Picked up a red arm C-3PO and Finn (Dusty Storm trooper outfit) Poly bags. Quote

BrickShady Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Just a small one this time around: 75223 Naboo Starfighter Microfighter. But a cute one though! Edited February 3, 2019 by BrickShady Quote
bountybossk Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I caved in and ordered 75222 Betrayal at Cloud City. It was on sale for €250 (RRP is €350 here) so that's a better deal. Especially looking forward to the figs. Quote
Fuchs Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I bought the Rsistance Speeder Pilot Nodin Chavdi at ebay to get a torso and the legs for my Finch Dallow Figure; also got Finch Dallows helmet and Head via Lego for free, Quote

The PDF instructions have the proof of purchase number. No questions asked, those four pieces are all in the same bag, so missing pieces worked. There are 2 bag number 1's. 75526 Elite TIE Fighter Pilot for 50% off at Target. My wife found it for me. Quote
roadstermatt Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 tried to speak to customer service at tlg ref the figures got sorry not available can send out as you weren't missing the figures in you set so then have tried to order complete figure on the missing brick page looks like i'm getting the head and helmet Quote
Hickernator Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Most recent purchase I made was for the Death Star Escape set that was recently released. Haven't built it yet however it is one of the better sets released so far this year in my opinion. Always wanted some scenery as opposed to vehicles. Quote
Calanon Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 The Inferno Squad battlepack. Very nice minifigures, need to make Dio! Quote

I buy almost every OT-set and honestly, this is one of the most boring sets I've built in the past months. The figs are fantastic, but the built is not at all exciting compared to f.e. Yoda's Hutt and Echo Base Medical Bay. Quote

Because I was still on the line about it, it looks good on paper (or screen) but I wanted an opinion from the physical point of view. Anyway, last purchase was a lucky find at a flea market, a used 8083 Hoth battlepack (w/o box) for 18€. Quote
Cylo Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Bought the new droid escape pod, the new stormtrooper helmet is really a meh, would have preferred the old helmet. The backpack on the back of the sandtrooper also is oversized, so i think I need to modd it. Quote
weeble1688 Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 Yesterday I finally got one each of the new battepacks, #75225 Elite Praetorian Guard & #75226 Inferno Squad. Looking forward to building them today! Quote
Little Brix Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Gave in to temptation and bought the Escape Pod vs Dewback Microfighter set. Quote

JPN366 Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Picked up the 75223 Naboo Starfighter Microfighter and the 75224 Sith Infiltrator Microfighter at the LEGO store. Quote
Rishab N Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Got a used 10179 Millennium Falcon for $450 including box and instructions. 99.9% complete, just missing a few small pieces . Pretty happy with it, but unsure if I will keep due to space reasons. Quote
LegoDW Posted February 24, 2019 Posted February 24, 2019 I just bought my first two Star Wars sets, xWing 75218 $65 Tie Fighter 75211 $50 Thought these were two were a good place to start! Quote
jeffreywilfong Posted February 25, 2019 Posted February 25, 2019 my last buy was the Porg, but that was a while ago. I'm saving up to buy bricks for a couple of MOCs. Quote
JPN366 Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Bought a lesser white whale off of eBay. 7930 Bounty Hunter Assault Gunship for $52 total. The box is open, but the bags are sealed and the manual and stickers are present. Quote
