I want to buy some of those Elves sets but I need to figure out what to do with a bunch of these unopened sets I have...><

It would be nice if they came out with a Ghostbusters expansion pack that included a mini ecto 1 and a slimer figure!
Me and the SO bought the Parisian Restaurant set from the Creator Experts series. Made the first booklet (ground floor part) today. So damn beautiful and rich in detail. My sister bought the Palace Cinema as a gift for our wedding in two weeks.
Really tempted to get the detectives office too now.

Get Pet Shop before it is gone.
Well, I plan to just get the sets I really like, and allthough the pet shop is nice, i like the detectives office a lot more. It costly you know
Want som juradsic world sets too, but what i've seen so far i don't really like. I hope they do some classic jp too. Would love a t-rex attack set with the green car (it is featured in the ideas that ate concidered at the moment, so one can only hope)

Another vote to get pet shop next. Once you get a couple, you'll want them all. Price on that will likely double later.

Well, after seeing the new mould for the hover board I can easily see a slimer minifig if the games are selling well.

This. It's "temporarily out of stock" now, I'm guessing within two months it will be gone.

What's a good affordable set thats great for putting together with my wife, who's not big into Legos?
She respects my collection but really isn't into any of it.
She's a sculptor and costume artist who makes a lot monster costumes and uses heavy power tools.
Just seeing if there's a good icebreaker set.

Dunno. I'd rather just buy the sets that really attract me, in stead of just collecting them all.
If it's fased out and gone, so be itBentBricks

Not sure. Parisian Restaurant? Are there any themes that are in her area of interest?
Maybe have her put some Mixels together with you then you guys make your own.
I always get some of those seasonal small sets for my wife. She has never turned to the dark side though.
That's an awesome idea. They'd make so much money if they did. People would just buy them for the slimer.

I recommend the birds set. At $44.99 it's reasonable and there are 3 separate builds so you can help.
j2g reviews the Kwik-E-Mart:

If you don't want to be spoiled on all the little touches, don't watch this.
I'm pretty sure this set breaks the record for printed pieces,and I'm thinking it may break the record for number of stickers as well. I forgot about the Maersk ship.

How did they get it?
edit: The Lego Ideas book is on sale at amazon for $8. Is that a good price? If I remember right it got good reviews from some people here.

That video solidifies my want for the Kwik E Mart. So much lego goodness.

Get a Daredevil and Bullseye figure in one pack, then have an army booster pack filled with ninjas from The Hand.

I've been ready for a DD set since seeing how good he looks in the Marvel Lego game. I won't hold my breath though.
And soo many Simpsons' episode references.

I would be happy with just a pack of red ninjas.
Heads up for anyone interested, Amazon now has all the Dimensions packs up for preorder. FYI they don't charge till it ships so its a safe way to ensure you have an order secured somewhere if there is a rush on them and no one ends up having a good preorder bonus.
Another FYI, my cart total with everything came to $335 before tax..

According to Brick Fan, Slimer appears on the far right (second row) of the dimensions box. Also it looks like the mystery mansion is on the front of the box (far right) which means Scooby-Doo.

That would be amazing. Looks like Superman and Aquaman in the top right too.

Is Kwik-E-Mart still going to be available on Wednesday?
Have Simpsons series 2 figs started showing up in the wild yet? I know TRU sometimes gets CMFs early...

I just noticed Batman in Lego Dimensions has the old cowl design.

I have to admit, I was huge fan when Simpsons first started but I stopped watching after a few years. I didn't remember all the references mentioned in the video, but it's still awesome to me nonetheless.

It's a terrific set at full price. Buy it!
It will be one of my purchases in the near future. Perhaps during May the 4th to add it to an order.
I really want Brainiac, Martian Manhunter, and Supergirl.

Are you near a brick & mortar LEGO store?
I have two within a half hour drive.
BentBricks

No you wouldn't.
Scooby-Dooby-Doo! Seems like the Dimensions game is a ticket to make new LEGO moulds that are very specialized. Woohoo!
Just finished the second floor of parisian restaurant. Found the ground floor more fun to build (more detail), but had a great time together with my girlfriend eather way. And putting the two floors together was magical, such a beautiful set! Can't wait to build the top floor tomorrow, allthough it will all be over then...

So you're probably in the GTA or BC. If you're in the GTA you need to visit Lasting Toys!
I'm in the GTA. I have heard good things about Lasting Toys and will check it out.

Let's say Lego added Dinensions stands in an upcoming CMF series, but bumped the price up again by $1...
How would you feel about this Lego GAF?

It won't happen, but I'd be pissed if it did.
How would you feel if they did exclusive LEGO minifigs (IP's LEGO owns) in Dimensions packages that you can't get through LEGO sets?

It is amazing. Worth the trip west.
We are lucky. Within 30 minutes we have 4 official LEGO stores plus LT.

Impressive assortment of minilandish sized builds.

Isn't that exactly what they're doing? The BTTF set has an exclusive hoverboard, the Wizard of Oz set has the Wiched Witch that's not available anywhere else, Unikitty's face brick is unique, etc.

Those aren't LEGO IP though. I think he's talking about like, if there were a pack of classic space themed Dimensions stuff with some modern minifigure version of a spaceman or blacktron guy that was not available in a conventional lego set.
I forgot about the one at Fairview Mall. The Vaughan Mills location is run by Merlin as it is a Discovery Centre location. Too bad you can't earn VIP points there.
Do any over your official stores have 4x5 leaves of any color. Doing the landscape of Orthanc I have already burned through at least 500. The Tree the Orcs will be chopping down in particular took like 60 of the 2x3 leaves and 100 of the 4x5 ones. I will be calling my store in cinci Tomorrow but that's like an hours drive for me.

There were none the last time I was in Nashville. Shame too, because I want a lot more to make a forest for Halloween.
Doing pre desolation Orthanc is horrible when it comes to use of lego plants lol. I am burning through so many of them doing it. I just like the idea of lush trees around it and a pond, etc rather than barren ground. It doesn't help that this means I have to cover 4 and 1/2 48x48 plates full of lush vegetation (5th one is partial pond and 6th is mostly covered by Orthanc) Doing a large half circle cobblestone path around the tower as well. Also doing small gradation changes to land height.
Why would they do that when they could make more money by releasing the CMF series first then later releasing them again in "Fun" packs for you to buy all over again.
And you know you will buy them again.
