Re: LEGO!
I haven't bought Legos in forever and my VIP points were set to expire on the first of the year. So I got the 60050 Train Station and the 60118 Garbage Truck sets to go in my eventual epic City set. I had about $40 worth of VIP so I got $85 worth of Legos for $45.
The Station is actually selling Lego sets in its little gift shop. I love it.

Re: LEGO!
For only the 2nd time I can remember I had a missing piece in the Palace Cinema. It wasn't anything major (a two stud piece that I was able to use two single stud extras in the same color) but it's a testament tohow good they are that in my over 50 sets (actually now that I'm thinking I don't even know how many I have) I've only had two missing pieces.
Sweet berry wine!

Re: LEGO!
I need to do that. I'm tired of paying!
On that note I recently built the Sa dcrawler and Slave I. I've got $100 in vip points so I may get the TIE Fighter half off basically.

Re: LEGO!
For my birthday, my sweetie got me a 3in1 Creator set of a Corner Deli and the new LEGO City Gas Station set. I also splurged and bought myself the Cargo Train off tru.com. The day after I bought it, it dropped in price $20. I emailed them, but haven't heard back yet.
That'll be my fifth train set because LEGO trains are awesome.

Re: LEGO!
For Christmas, I got the Modular Assembly Square. It’s taking me over a week to build it. It has over 4,000 pieces.
Still missing the Bank set. Might try and get that in the next couple weeks, since I’m buying less comics I have a little more scratch for Legos.
The Diner just came out. It looks pretty sweet. I noticed it’s the first time, they haven’t used the traditional yellow face characters. The Diner figures have expressions, facial hair, etc.
If I had the space to display it, my Lego City would look pretty fucking epic.

Re: LEGO!
GF bought the Diner set after I said I was going to buy the Bank set. Diner came in the mail yesterday, along with the cool freebie set it comes with, which is a 60th Anniversary set of 4 mini constructs recreating the original 4 subsets. One for the Galaxy Explorer Space set, one for the 1978 yellow Castle set, one for the Pirate set, and one of the 1990 monorail/tram set.
It’s pretty sweet. Oh, and the Diner set is cool too. Should get the Bank set in a week or two.

Re: LEGO!
Got a quarterly bonus on my check last week, as well as several hours of OT, so much paycheck was almost twice what it usually is.
I splurged and got the Ferris Wheel set.
Also saw the Roller Coaster set on Lego.com. Squeeeee!!!
Holy shit at $380 but I’m saving up for that bad boy.
Ferris Wheel should be here in a few days.

Re: LEGO!
Wow. Voltron?
https://shop.lego.com/en-US/Voltron-213 ... =144831966
I remember sitting on the floor one Saturday morning in the 80s trying to build the vehicle version of Voltron out of Legos. Figured out fairly quickly that I didn't have the right pieces to try the lion version. I also tried making the vehicles from Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors.

Re: LEGO!
My Lego Movie 2:Apocalypseburg set came on Friday. Haven’t opened it yet. Have to figure out where I’m gonna display it. Running out of room in my apartment.
