Gosh darn you, I wasn't going to do this but dammit now I don't think I can wait. Can you send me the info I need to get it from barns if they still have it in stock and can I do it over the phone with them? Or do I need to physically go there.

Ooh, didn't realise you needn't be a member. Are you able to send me a PM too?
BTW, does a membership give 10% off all Lego sets?

Canadians, the TRU promo did start today - I just picked this up:
Yep, I am glad you posted earlier, Ghost. Just got back from the store.
The plastic is really stretchy-not the standard polybag material. Is this the new normal?

Yeah, the only Minecraft LEGO sets that interested me was from the Cursor set and the follow up Microworld sets.
I actually own the full set of them. They're tiny, I like the Minecraft block shaped boxes, and you can connect them as well.
Once they turned it into its own full line of larger sets however, I just lost interest in it.

Don't need to be a member? I'll head there after work if you can send me the info for ordering, it'd be much appreciated.
And I hope that is a tease of things to come -- it would be out of this world!

PMs sent with the upc. And I will be gone for most of the day due to travel, so if others want the upc those that already received it can send.

Watched the video. They obviously don't keep and store their boxes.

Only skimmed through the video but... does that Minecart actually go down the whole trail by itself or you have to keep pushing it?

Wal-Mart sales were good yesterday. Got all three for ~$150 total.
Planning on keeping the Rebels set in the box for a while to see if price goes up for resale, probably.
The Krennic/Shuttle set might just be for parts tbh. I will probably build it to see if it changes my mind but I may just go for some sort of deluxe Bat-Plane or something, not sure.
The Striker though... Excited for that one. All the minifigures look great.
*EDIT* according to new reddit threads, many Toys R Us stores have begun selling these sets today as well. TRU is also running a 20% off all SW LEGO sale right now. Go see if you can score a deal!
Good news: amazon is stocking summer star wars sets now
bad news: some are mispriced and are too high... could be a mistake, I hope
22.92 for the battle packs
that is definitely not right. And as much as I love amazon... they have no price matching policy, nor will they price adjust after an item ships if you find it cheaper. One of their downsides. They even removed the "tell us about a lower price" feature that used to be there

An E-Type would be lovely.
Yeah, I got krennics shuttle from a Walmart that had it clearanced as well. They also had the other two discounted down but I already got the striker for cheap elsewhere​ and I already have a different version of the other set. I also need to cut down my expenses a ton this year so I'm trying to cut down to exclusives only for the most part, but it's hard. I probably will only get a couple sets from the Batman movie line and now that I have picked up a bunch of superheros I will probably eliminate that line from my pickups. I've been moving more toward buying most of my Lego in bulk now via bricklink, lugbulk, and PaB.
According to my rebrickable database the number of bricks I've bought loose in bulk finally surpassed the amount I have via sets, 320,000 bricks non set vs 315,000 from sets. (Yes I keep track of a count of all loose bricks I buy excluding the ones I bought before 2013. So technically I probably passed it before now but those parts are not in my database since when I started keeping track I had lots of sorted sets already sorted in loose bricks and I wasn't about to separate them to figure it out.) I could of done it somewhat but bricklink deletes orders completed after 6 months so I couldn't go back to the beginning.
Also it's not that crazy time consuming. I use a scale that gives me a count of all the bricks so I can count several thousand bricks in a couple minutes.
Walked into the local grocery chain and saw last Blue Power Jet for 30Eur, quickly grabbed it. Then driving back I realized I got one or even two sealed ones hidden out of sight. But will try to play the birthday card on this one. You know, mine present being allowance to unpack and build
The receipts I saw people posting had them selling at MSRP with an additional 20% off
But who knows, particular stores may charge more.
Good to hear. I might make the trip then.

I'll confirm new Star Wars were at msrp before 20%. I didn't see the Rathtar set at mine. Every time I hear Rathtar I think of Reptar from Rugrats.
You meant twice as often.

I got mine cheaper, but that is a great set. It's HUGE too.

Thanks for the UPC, Phon. Just ordered the Saturn V!

Edit: Got it, thank you!
Is it a good build? I'm tempted.

Is Ultra Agents a dead series? I picked up the Hurricane Heist set for $29.98 at TRU today, first time seeing it on their shelves. Looked like an interesting plane/helicopter/whatever to build.

Yesterday I posted about how I barely buy any LEGO anymore, and today I did the opposite. As Ghost said, Canadian TRUs are giving away the Astromech polybag today....another Canadian outlet (Mastermind) slashed prices on a few sets so I grabbed the Beatles one ($28) and the Caterham ($40) from their online store.
Stopped by my local Mastermind and ALL the new sets are out. The new Star Wars battle packs look fantastic. As do the Brickheadz which I hadn't seen in person yet.
The Scout Trooper looks so impressive even by the size of the box.
Lots of stuff getting added to my Brickset want list tonight....

Dead, unfortunately, the villains of the line were amazing! Infearno Interception has the best futurecar build ever.
Hurricane Heist came out 2 years ago or something, my TRU also had a lone HH for 50% off but someone bought it a week or so back.

Pretty good. The top wing comes together in a cool way.

I don't give a shit about minecraft but that set looks just SO much fun. I wish I had that thing as a kid.

Pic from the LEGO Store in Mall of Scandinavia:
Did we ever figure out a good way to know what LEGO Batman figures were in each bag? Still sort of want Red Hood and Catman
(Picked up Injustice 2 and happened to walk by)

Wondering if the ucs bb8 will be similar
Personally I hope not. I know the ultimate aim is for models to look like their counterpart, but I'm not a fan of '3D modelled' Lego like that. It looks like they took some 3D model on a computer and generated the Lego model. I much prefer when it's designed by a human
How does that stage 3 fairing/command module section work? Do you get a spare lander that sits inside stage 3 and you can flip the command module around to dock with it? Because the top looks white not grey so I'm a bit confused how it all fits together
Could someone please PM the UPC? Seeing the pics has made me unable to wait for June 1st.
Same 😬
