Yeah, most of our Lego has been taken it down and my wife and I are busy rebuilding everything - just got the Imperial shuttle, imperial flagship, Tower bridge and death star ahead of us. Eep.

Well, you have to figure out a way to separate him from the base. I have some of those from the Egyptian adventure theme a while back and they are on there pretty dang good as far as I can tell, but there's probably a YouTube video detailing how to get them off.
Would buying that magnet set be cheaper than just buying the Vader minifig alone?

This is where I got a Darth Vader for my son, since the sets he was in were so expensive. No light saber included with the movie bundle, but we had the parts to fashion one. I don't know if this is harder to find now, but when I got it, pretty common on store shelves for $10 or so.

This watch is $20 and comes with vader *AND* obi wan

Very nice!
New Chima polybag:
Available at Target.
Very nice. Available now?
Thats awesome! Are polybags just exclusive to the US? Wondering if other countries miss out like Australia does. Would love to know the reason for that - I'd snap up most of these if I could - I love the smaller stuff.
BUt anyway - it looks great - my son will (would) eat it up.

So, all my bricks are officially washed and half-dried. Tomorrow the sorting begins.
Got a potato-quality picture for you guys.
Bike and messy room for scale:
I'll take a better picture when everything's all nice and organized. So expect that sometime in 2016 probably.

Oof. I want that Darkseid set, but $70 is more than I was hoping it would be...
Those prices seems a bit ridiculous compared to the sets I remember...
will still buy...
About what I expected, big fig tax on the Darkseid invasion set. I'm not wild about the Javelin yet but will hold full judgment till some reviews. Black Manta will wait for sale because none of the builds are interesting and only want Black Manta.
The rest are all insta-buys.

Yay, I'm home and I came home to 5+ pounds of black bricks of various sorts (from bricklink) to work with for my OrthancWork week was shorter than expected.

I would buy a ton of poly bags in general seeing as Lego is like super expensive here, those are probably affordable.
What do they go for?
Sadly we don't get poly bags here.
You're in New Zealand right? I'm Australian. Why don't we get these I would like to know? Do you Europeans get it? Other countries? Is it US only?

We get SOME polybags here in Europe, some in Lego Stores as a monthly promo and then some in stores available to buy like that but those Toys R Us bags the US seems to get seemingly all the time will forever elude me it looks like

Occasional newspaper promotions is about the only way to get polybags in the UK.

My local LEGO Store had some of the new City, Creator and Technic sets so I picked up the snowplow. I'll get the others during next month's promotions.
Checking out the other City sets, it seems the builds are simpler than previous years.
As long as they don't go as simple as Town Junior builds, I'm happy.

I require Green Lantern and Black Manta. I'll probably end up buying them all, though.

Apparently the Disney Princess Frozen set has been spotted in Swedish stores. Hype rising!
You mean Frozen right? That'd be amazing if it came to the US right before Christmas. My daughter would flip.

Oh, lol. I got the Swedish name for it. Apparently they might have been removed, but it means that they're almost ready to be sold.
My one bricklink from November 24th still hasn't been shipped, I sent another irritated email to the seller. It was still polite but this is getting annoying. Thankfully none of the parts are hard to plug into Orthanc at a later time unlike stuff in the orders that did arrive.

He lives in Florida based on the receipts he shows. The east coast probably gets shipments before the rest of the country.
So apparently, 71016 Simpsons Kwik-E-Mart is going to be available to VIPs on April 15th, and will have a general release on May 1st.
As always, take it with a grain of salt until proven.
If true, then May will be another expensive month, with this, the Simpsons CMF S2 and the UCS TIE.

They were just putting out these at Target today. I was the first person on brickset to add it to my collection
LEGO GAF, let's do this!
He's just 2 good
No wonder... I never thought about it that way. As someone who lives in Cali, I'm used to us getting certain things early too once in a while -- stuff shipped over from asia. But east coast getting LEGO early makes sense since they come from europe I guess?
