TLG NA is really dragging their heels tonight.

I just want to go to bed. But I don't want to wait until morning to order and take the chance of things being sold out.

I could just wake up early and drive to the store before work. But that is about $20 in gas and a few hours of my life gone.

Do we really think the birds are going to sell out? It's a $45 set. That's a lot of dough, especially when the Research Institute was the cheap scalper set.

Exo Suit and Mars Rover went really fast. I am not taking any chances on Ideas sets anymore.

Aw man. $45 is so much for those...I don't want to miss out on one Ideas set though...;_;

$45 for 580 pieces. That is below the magic $.10 a brick threshold.

I know, but they're so tiny because they're small birds. HMMMMMMM. I'll figure something out. Thank you, my shoulder Phon.

More like, get ready to empty your wallets.
I feel like it's like the movie, Ground Hog Day. Every year, new releases and my wallet is emptied. It always turns out the same no matter what.

I think they said tractor beam was spelled wrong.

I'm waiting only a few more minutes. I am too tired to keep waiting.

If they are fair, they'll wait till the entire US is on Jan 1, which would be in 2 hours.

It is midnight pacific now. No sets up. I am going to sleep. I think things will be fine in the morning.

Jan 1st is here and no sign of Slave 1.
Will Birds be available in Lego stores?
Yes, but it'll be one of the sets that will sell out fast.

I want to say 8/1/14, when the last Ideas sets released.

From a CITY video just released, what looks to be a diving boat from the undersea subtheme is show for a few frames.
Interesting. Is that a new boat mould?
Hmm was there something I was supposed to be doing earlier tonight? Ahh, I forget. Maybe I'll remember in the morning. 
I adore Brotherhood Workshop's work

My wife has taken the kids for a sleepover at her parent's place (no, I'm not in trouble, it's all above-board!), so for the first time in I-have-no-idea-how-long, I have the house to myself.
I shall be completing the Milano, and possibly the Snowspeeder, and I shall also possibly destroy the Model Team Wheel 'n' Whirl so I can start the alternate build or maybe the single-image-"try-this-sucka" build pictured on the manual. Whatever happens, it shall be a night of creation and destruction!
So LegoGAF, what do you like to do when building? Ambient music, rockin music, TV shows, movies, podcasts, audiobooks, or possibly even contemplative silence? What should the background of my Lego marathon be?

I usually have a documentary from Netflix on during building. I can focus on building while listening to some facts about a random topic.
I'm gonna try and stay up waiting for the website to refresh.

I just watched the Guardians of the Galaxy again with the wife. The Milano is just as perfect in Lego form as she is on screen.
Buildingwise, I normally just build my big sets late at night while listening to music. Sometimes in front of the tellie but that's rare. Smaller sets get built with my son, so that he can enjoy it as much as I do.

Wow, about 1/3 of the way through the Milano. Great build so far, but then that pilot chair. So slick, so good.
Ended up putting on some Louis CK stand up on Netflix while I build. Having a good time so far

damn you guys are really selling me on that milano... just having watched GotG again as well.
heading to LEGO at 11am. I can't believe they will be sold out of Birds or Slave I. Going to pass on Detective Office for now, as gorgeous as it looks. Anything else star wars will just be icing as I can pick that up during the year at target or TRU sales..

Went to Westfield Stratford this morning, got there just after they opened and shortly walked out with these;
Boy was it tough to stick to just those, I looked at all the enw creator and SW as well as DA but they need to be spaced out... plenty of time. Slave 1 however does not wait.
Birds is very heave for it's size.
Also picked these up at TRU a few days ago;

Dammit! Since there are so few figures I want out of CMF13 I want to wait, but they're also excellent to pad out an order to reach the free shipping threshold. Either way, they're still not up. I'm guessing noone is working there today.
