Wait a minute. Does Winter Soldier actually have a "gun" gun?!?
CZ Skorpion looks like (he used one in Winter soldier)

I think it's this one:
Woohoo, I was able to find an AT-DP and AT-AP locally via craigslist for $95 total! Now I'm looking for the rest of the "AT-" sets, but it feels kinda funny paying over retail since most of the stuff I've been buying has been with some sort of discount up to now. But the markups aren't too bad, so I can stomach it.
Hope you are right about the AT-OT, as I'm definitely not paying ~$500 for the AT-OT&Transport set!
How do you guys handle acquiring retired sets? Bite the bullet and the mark ups? Patiently lurk craigslist for a deal? Or just swear off anything retired?
Enjoy the At Ap. It is brilliant. I'm just like you, I love walkers (was really bumped out about the lack of one in TFA, especially because it ment no Lego version of it too)
As to your question: i don't go aftermarket. When it is gone, it is gone. I'd love an at ot, but for that price you can buy so many nice sets at rrp it is just not worth it for me.
Probably will get some action next movie, similar to the AT-AT being first shown in Ep.5 heh.
There is an upcoming Creator Lighthouse set, 31051, that will be out this summer.
If you want one now, and don't mind paying aftermarket prices, you can get 5770 Lighthouse Island.
Dear lord, that brick-built Giant-Man. I might need that set.
Same as this? http://brickset.com/parts/6103643I think it's this one:
Agent 13 has one as well in the Airport set.
I need that Giant Man in my life but really do not care for the rest of that set.
How did you get Ren's ship to have the wings fold out?
Any idea on the pricing of that Giant Man/Civil War set? $80?
And the Falcon/Black Widow set will probably be $20-$25, right?
Does anyone else have a bunch of unopened polybags? They keep adding up while buying from S@H and I keep saving them (mostly) since they tend to become expensive. But that means you have to sell them to
begin with, and I rarely can be bothered to do that...
Ugh I think I'm roped into Nexo Knights. It's like a sci-fi Army of Darkness and I love it. Is the Fortrex worth the $100 to anyone who has it?
Thanks all for confirming that the "burn out" I'm feeling isn't a unique thing. I'm going to take some time off, work through the backlog when I feel like it and see where that takes me.
Yep.
So dumb. I buy two of pretty much every polybag and they all just end up in these stupid shoeboxes.
I really need the Balloon Cart and Hot Dog vendor polybags for my carnival.
Speaking of Nexo Knights... this summer will see Jestro's Lava Castle (placeholder name?), and while it is not a volcano proper, it will have volcanic elements and is BIG (think Chima's Lion CHI Temple in size).
And much like Ultra Agents, I am really digging the villains for this theme, and will be getting the evil sets first.
Is there any reason why Battle of Takodana is so expensive? $90AUD is obscene for that, looks like it's worth $50 even taking into account SW tax.
Visited the LEGO store today and decided to jump into Star Wars UCS sets. Grabbed the Red Five X-Wing just before they are completely gone (may have grabbed the last one).
I was planning on just getting the play sets but the call of the UCS was too strong. Now onto all the other UCS sets.
Also GB HQ is a beast and seemed to be flying off the shelf (the box is massive). BB looks fantastic.

UCS X-Wing is a wonderful set. Just know you are obligated by law to pick up the UCS Tie Fighter within 1 calendar year to go with it.
Jestro's Evil Mobile. Easy recommendation.So I'm gonna be buying at least one Lego set tomorrow. Maybe more. Is there any consensus yet on the best Nexo Knights set(s)? I want at least one set from that theme. It seems pretty fun.

It has a small brick built demon, and the mobile has a moving jaw mechanism and two catapults in it. It is badass.For some reason I'm not a huge fan of how it looks. I mean, I don't dislike it, but it doesn't really grab me. I'll certainly give it some heavy consideration though.
Right now I'm leaning towards grabbing the two mechs first.

Well the FO AT-AT or whatever it could be called was shown briefly.

I still need to get the mechs myself though.
Who, good catch, never noticed that at all. But it looks like it is missing its head as there are just some tubes coming out of the body.
