Everything LEGO thread!

Ordered the Haunted House. I figured why not with double points.

 

Finally built the shuttle yesterday. Holy crap, they really knocked it out of the park with this one

 

Anyone having trouble creating carts in Bricklink?

First - I was able to autoselect and get five stores with all my parts but when I went to create carts - nothing would happen. Any 'ajax' error would pop up.

Second, Bricklink will not even finish the search for the parts during autoselect.

I've tried using Chrome then Edge as browsers - didn't make a difference.

Any thoughts? TIA

Edit: Got my stuff ordered through ios.. go figure.

 

Got a decent little order put in today

 

Picked up the 2021 X-Wing so I could get a badass Princess Leia from ANH. Here’s a landing pad for Luke to chill on while he drinks his coffee. I’m holding off on applying the many stickers until I figure out how dramatically I want to rework the set.

It’s a cool kit for $50, with great technic wing articulation (s-foils to attack position!). I retooled the back and top a bit to accept some of my greebling, and I modified it to have folding landing gear. The landing gear it came with was stationary and lame.

Oh, another add are the smooth grey plates to the engine intake detail (semi-illegal attachment method) that many others on the internet figures out before me.

My nostalgia bleeds me of these credits, yo.

 

I forget, did you end up getting her and her plane? There’s a $5 kid aviatrix in the current line of green mystery bags that is pretty sweet.

 

Great to see her plane built and on display!

I ended up passing along all of mine. Glad they went to good homes!

 

Ah, dust. The eternal nemesis of displays everywhere...

 

I have a display cabinet for my models , but that just isn't happening for the Lego. Several of my sets could do with being disassembled and deep cleaned at this point. Also not looking forward to dusting everything in taking to the show in July

 

One of my sons "newest" sets.

 

I sneezed after reading this...

 

Happy to add this to my collection.

 

Google “Lego May the Fourth 2021”

I tried to post a link but got paranoid with the 67 lines of tracking information in the link and couldn’t cut it down to get it to work.

 

going down the rabbit hole that is brick link and found a favorite from my younger years.

I remember that set, but didn't have it. That was right when Lego was starting to descend into design juniorization and some other business decisions that nearly led them to bankruptcy. Fun times

 

I had it. Unfortunately my entire collection of legos disappear from my home of raising.

 

That hurts, man...
