    I do a fair amount of ordering from Lego. Mostly the Direct to Consumer (D2C) sets. Those hardly go on sale anywhere. Other sets I look for deals online where I can unless Lego has a promo then I’ll buy from them for the promo.

    I tend to watch my Brickset wanted list for deals on Amazon. I'd say half of my sets were bought cheaper than retail. There are very few sets I feel that I need to have right away.

    Love the glass block around the door:

    This is more of a corner set than an in line building, the facade colors wrap all the way around to the back door.
    Very clever build with the Diner letters too:

    Honestly love this Modular build so far! :D

    This arrived today. It was ordered with everything else, Lego just decided to ship it separately and by another carrier.

    Picked this up from ebay at a big discount. No figs or box. The stickers on the windshield were a pain. Great little ship. I'll be getting another when they come down in price.

    This is what the Millenium falcon (not the $800 one), Poe’s Xwing, at-st, Rey’s speeder, Yoda star fighter, lukes speeder, and some other small figures all look like bagged up in pieces in a back pack.

    Took them up to visit family for holidays. Had them put together. My nephew and I made a stop motion video. He loves doing it so I thought if I took up all my sets he could make a good one. He did. Just don’t know how to upload video from my phone. Might have to do it to YouTube first?

    But bringing them home I figured I’d break them down so I can have fun putting them back together with my daughters and not lose pieces on th drive.

    Heavy bag.

    Best way I’ve found is to upload the vid onto YouTube and then paste a link. :thumbsup:
