These are great! They are like cheaper modulars. It's making me want to collect the bike shop and any others like those. Ugh.
I like the new head wrap. I'll be getting this set. I like the woman pirate. Her hair looks like the CMF fortune teller hair mould. Looks good.
Is that a new outfit on the girl?
That racing bike is kick ass. And there are two! Must get for me.

My Amaro Little Spud arrived today. I'd take a picture but I don't have the means to set him up nicely. The connection mold seems a little iffy. It would be nice to hear about the other ones out there that fellow GAFers purchased.

Spent almost 30 minutes at work today feeling out CMF 12, thought I got everyone I needed but when I got home I realized I grabbed two Wizards and not a Wizard and a Princess. Luckily I was able to figure it out before opening the second one so I can still take it back and exchange it.
So now I have everyone, including 3 Musketeers (eheheheh), two Jesters and two Greek Warriors (the doubles still in their bags, not sure if I'll keep them), but I'm missing the Princess. Drat!

Those are really cool. I really like the Han/Chewie cover, even though it's one of the simplest...

Those new lego creator sets look amazing. Sadly I won't be in the US next year so I won't be able to get them.

I'm gonna wind up making some terrible purchasing decisions if I can ever manage to fit lego into my budget again. I love the tiny creator buildings and some of the swamp sets. Also a couple of the other creator sets and the tiny pirate island.

Dammit. Why did the pirate sets have to turn out nicely.
Probably with a $30/50/75/etc. superhero purchase?
Wtf I going to buy... I literally have them all.
I hope the Juniors batman set will count. I do need that one.

New mold on the crocodiles--and possibly the swordfish head (the body's still the same).
That swordfish is a real step down from the BIG shark that came with the last Pirate's line ship. What happened to the big shark? It was only in two or three sets. That guy ruled, you could put a whole minifig in the mouth and close it.

I'm a little sad they don't come out until spring :-(

I don't know much about Bionicle, but these are amazing (MOCs, not official LEGO versions):

Tarakia - Master of Mind by Brickthing, on Flickr
Kulgai - Master of Vine by Brickthing, on Flickr
Onuta - Master of Claw by Brickthing, on Flickr
I believe it's a sawshark. Swordfish has a non-serrated "sword" like a foil or rapier.
AFAIK, this is the first appearance of the dark red brick bricks.
These could be in huge demand on the secondary market, once the Pirate sets are released.

This got lost on the last page, but anyone here with a PS3 might want to get the classic spaceman dynamic theme along with other dynamic themes that were released yesterday:

Been a while since I posted, though granted, it's been a while since I picked up any LEGO though that changed last weekend.
Decided to buy this on a whim:

Bionicle is going to be a big money sink for me, but probably not as bad as it was for me originally since they arent doing the random mask packs anymore.

In the "bad decision LEGO" news, it appears that December will be the last mini-model build for the foreseeable future. I don't know if the LEGO Club meetings have been cancelled as well, but there are none advertised in the November or December calendars.
I hope this just means that LEGO is refreshing the programs, or replacing them with something new, because they were/are insanely popular at any LEGO stores I have visited.
With that note, here is the cool November mini-model build:

Well, I think there are only two aren't there?
I have the lousy one (the Phantom), which honestly isn't the worst set ever. The ship has some interesting elements while I like both figs (the mask is cool, as is the smaller-than-usual astromech).
Hot damn, that level of detail and color variety is great.
The HF 2.0 system doesn't get enough credit as far as MOC's are concerned.
Indeed. I'm curious to see what the smaller sets are like.
Lego Club meetings take a break during the holiday months so those should start back up in January.
The turnout for the builds in the summer months when school isn't in session is insane but it calms back down in the fall. I believe the official reason why they left the November and December builds off the calendar is because they were experimenting with the way they promote them because they were running out of sets too fast. Obviously the solution would be to make more of them to satisfy demand but it might be a supply chain issue holding them back, I guess. I really hope it's not because they were phasing them out. There was a period last year when they were doing two different builds a month and they eventually phased that second one out pretty abruptly.

Reports say being sold November 16th at $4.99.
I'll stop by that morning and if I can grab extras I'll get some for non-North America LEGOGAF.

Do they ever have these for sale online? At least you don't have to buy other stuff.
I am concerned about the Sticker Champions as well... but the release timing is great for my birthday! Still cautiously optimistic about getting at least half of the sets.
