They were for that build, normally no tho but he loves his new monster gloves.
I need to work on a backlog and storage stuff for him, maybe a binder for all the instructions.
Looking forward to the advent calendar.

NOOOOOOOOOO! I don't need to spend more money! Shut up and take my money if good sets are discounted!
Will they price match something from last weekend if it is on sale this weekend?

Eh, oh well. At least I got the 10% off last weekend and Maersk before it disappeared.

That Holiday set is amazing. I really want it.
I guess I bite the bullet on the Post Office, and just stick that and the Holiday bonus in the cellar until next year.
"What, this? Yeah I bought this months ago remember?"
That's the line I'm using when I assemble the Toy Shop next week.

Damn! I was denied!! Something about the corporate office saying it was a misprint. Didn't feel like arguing, so I left.
Good job, doc!
I hope I find out if I'm getting a job I'm waiting to hear back on this week, if I do I'm going to be very interested in seeing what's on sale. At this point I think the next 3 sets I need to try to get before they go away are the Haunted House (is it true that's going OOP after Christmas?), the Imperial Shuttle and Daigon Alley.
Glad you enjoyed and got use out of themHey, I found your tumbler instructions online a while back and ordered myself a bunch of parts from Bricklink, have the black Tumbler sitting on my desk at work now!
Just wanted to say thanks for making those instructions available. You rock.

Add me as well, Reluctant-Hero. And Forester, be sure to setup your Friend List because I can't send you a request yet. Just press the Home button and choose "Friend List".

I've done the same thing with my space men!
An amazing episode that sadly introduced the worst character of the reboot...

She didn't actually turn into the worst character until way after that though.

First the iDaleks and now the iNerada?
Captured River's expression as well!
The pic doesn't show that Ten is in a proper pin striped suit. The hair was harder to find. I think the sleepy guy hair would work, but it is the wrong color. Sonic screwdrivers were easy to make.

She was awesome until the backstory reveal. And she's still OK.
Worst part of the episode was it was a Donna episode.

Donna wasn't that bad. I like her more than River.

BAH! Donna was cool. Helluva lot better than Martha. But I can see why Donna would grate on some people.
Also, DrForester, have you busted open the pod racers yet? Curious as to your thoughts on it.
EDIT: I started looking at the pics for the exclusive holiday set. It looks really nice for being free. Four mini figs plus one of the new horses? Very nice indeed.

Built them both. They were mildly enjoyable builds (especially for only $30). Was disappointed by the giant single pieces for the back of Sebulba's racer. I can't imagine having paid full price for them though. Honestly, the biggest score in the set is those long clear technic pieces, those will make great stands for something.
As a side note, I can't believe this set got Obi-Won instead of Qui-Gon....

I am looking at it as a great parts pack for moc purposes.
Edit: Also, I am wanting to build tonight and continue the modulars. But the in laws are in all week so I don't have room to do the time lapse or do the combo build. Tempted to just do a building at a time just to build.

Rory at top. Like he should be.
Also, Fire Brigade at that price is great. Everyone jump on it.

Galazxy squaaaaaaaad. Tiny one is a lock to buy. If I buy the smallest couple and get addicted the hunger will spread to the expensive ones.

That little ship sure packs a lot of firepower.

Flick missiles are an all-or-nothing affair. no such thing as moderation. they're in nearly every damn set. they put in as many as you could logically fit and then add one more.

Then I want to see a pincushion kind of battle ship. You press a tab than flick missiles go everywhere. I want eyes to suffer, toes to be hurt and cries heard everywhere.

This is the kind of absurd shit I'd hear in elementary school about video games. "Other countries have like 5 versions of pokemon that we don't." Legos why you warp my mind.

More pictures here.
Also, is the blue/orange mech/jet Creator set in the third picture next to the green mech Creator set a leak? Didn't see that in preview pictures.
Galaxy Squad looks adorable, but I hope the actual bug minions are in cheaper sets than the Bug Obliterator.
Also, Bug Obliterator doesn't seem like a good value. A tiny bug ship with one troop and two so-so space vehicles?

I could see some interesting *ahem* creations from that top one.

I see the return of the good ole' Lego space bazooka!
Also, I did break down tonight and give up on the mega modular build. Just too tired and space constrained to set up the area to do time lapse. And with Black Friday coming up, I will be so tired I probably wont want to dig into it. So instead I am doing the buildings one at a time, and just finished the first floor of Grand Emporium again. Even though I am doing a building at a time now, the pieces from four of the them are still mixed together (but somewhat sorted). Taking forever to find some pieces.
You know what is sad about those pictures? Knowing they are from a Toys R Us I cant tell if that is the TRU tax or regular Canadian pricing.

Yeeeessss. I acutally wanted to mention that metal detector in my previous post.
You're an awesome human being! That kid is going to love it.My girlfriend came home with a wishlist from a kid in a sub for santa program from work. I saw "Lego's monster kind" on the list and picked this up for him:
Hope he enjoys it. Wish I had the money to buy something bigger.
