Re: What was the last LEGO set you got?

Oh, another thing about Mixels: Six of them are "Uncommon",  And by Uncommon I only mean that they put 3 in a case instead of 4.  The other 3 are common, 4 to a case.  If someone has trouble deciding what to buy, buy an "uncommon" because statistically they're harder to get.  I mean to write down the common ones for the BiM community.  I will soon.

Re: What was the last LEGO set you got?

Super-excited. I just got these:

http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20131027162551/lego/images/c/cd/1395110_734883096526504_3100051_n.jpg

http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110821011100/lego/images/5/50/1351.jpg

I've been wanting both for a while, but especially Toa Ignika. I can't believe it's six years since he came out! Back then, my parents kind of banned me buying any more LEGO for some reason (that ban lasted literally years, from 2005 until 2010 I think). But I now finally have the Mask of Life, which I've wanted for years, plus the skyboard has loads of pieces I don't have.

The Dol Guldur set is really cool. I actually love the Beorn minifig and can't wait to find a new use for the head mini/bigsmile  and I now have orcs, which pleases me greatly. Since I got the Necromancer minifig on ebay a while ago, I've added him to the setup, and can't wait to do my Hobbit 3 tie-in animation. I started working on a series called Young Istari a while back and now that I have this set, I can go ahead with most of it.

The Melting Room.  It cost me nothing!  Not sure what's going on, except that a robot is trying to melt Emmet. 

Galactic Films, I almost got that ATRT at an insanely reduced price, but someone bought it at full price.  I'm sure you're enjoying that!

Have you seen The LEGO Movie yet? The film kinda' explains it.

Sounds like a bit of a schism, there.

Since Lego had the 15% off deal, along with a free Darth Revan minifigure and free poster, combined with the fact that this was the only SW:TOR set I hadn't yet acquired, I just couldn't resist. Ooh boy, it's lovely. It has a high price tag - more expensive than the Sith Fury-Class Interceptor, which I prefer - but the sale/minifig combo made it worthwhile.

I don't make Brickfilms. I trade virtual hats.

Man, I want that set. I love TOR, plus those three promo movies that the TOR sets have been based on are awesome.

Just assembled the Delorian from the Back to the future set.  I built the one from the first movie.

That's cool! I just got this baby on bricklink for $36. Not bad for a set that was $45.

Not too bad.  But At the Lego store they're retailing for $35.  I didn't pay tax because I bought it in Delaware.  But I did spend $20 on gas and toll.

Re: What was the last LEGO set you got?

Just ordered the Extremis Solider minifig on ebay for £3.50. I also bought the Spider-man/Nick Fury/Venom set for £15.99, as opposed to the usual $20. It's arrived, but I don't plan on opening that or the Extremis guy until after my first exam on Tuesday.

These are both for Avengers Tower episodes 3 and 4, which I'm going to start working on once I've finished episode 2 and the intro for the BFCU Interactive Adventure.

Re: What was the last LEGO set you got?

I just made my first ever Bricklink order!!!!!:D

I've bought some trans-orange Ice Planet pieces, a few alien heads, the flesh colour Madame Hooch head, and some Adventurers heads and torso. Most proud of the Dementor face and the Chinese Imperial guard body (Adventurers) as I now plan on making a Jiang-shi (Chinese energy vampire).

Now I just have to hope the actual payment process goes smoothly. I've always been wary of Bricklink in the past because it doesn't tell you postage outright (I understand the process - the seller determines it bla bla bla) but I decided to take the leap and give it a try.

If you can't pay though PayPal, ask the person if you can send a money order. That's what I always do.

I'm sure it'll go fine.
I've done about half a dozen orders and it's never gone haywire.
The only thing is, once you do it, you'll wanna do another order.

Addictive? mini/eek Aw man, I hope not, because I want to save up for the Ghostbusters and Back to the Future sets next.
