    I’ve always been amazed how I’m never missing a piece when I buy a Lego set. Hundreds, sometimes thousands of pieces but they’re always there….until now.

    Bag 8 of 30-something in the Hogwarts castle set we bought was cut open when we opened the box. We noticed one missing piece (mind blown) then took full inventory and found 4 total pieces missing from the bag. Contacted Lego, after they approve it’ll be 7-10 days before they ship. Build on hold.

    ….got this one at Wal-Mart since it’s discontinuing soon:

    So I’m a collector. When I start in on something I usually go all in. Been working on completing my NES collection for 12 years and getting close, bourbon, one of the few people on Tacoma World with an Elite Off-Road Bumper (search it) and Legos are no different. Scooping up the HP Lego randos including this in-store build from Barnes & Noble from a few years back:

    quick, fun five minute build.

    Also, this mini-figure from the 2011 San Diego Comic Con. Couldn’t bring myself to ripping open the box to put his cape on.

    Edit: and this in-store Lego Golden Snitch build.

    Got a shipping confirmation email yesterday for my Mandalorian helmet.

    WOOT WOOT

    Gonna save it for my kiddo's birfday in May. In the meantime I may decide to pickup the Boba Fett helmet as well, for his birfday. We'll see.

    In the meantime, picked up a couple FREE sets from the local Facebook page.

    The Mrs is always on there buying, selling, and giving away stuff. Saw these, along with others the same person was giving away, and I wanted these. There were others but they had already been given away.

    Too bad these are already built, but all good either way. And because they're built, not sure if all the pcs are there if I wanted to tear down and build one of the others. No biggie.

    The plane is missing two pcs, but already ordered them on Bricklink.

    The shark set goes with another one my son and I already have, so that will be a nice addition to complete it.

    Saw a bunch more of the sets that are releasing tomorrow at Walmart again. Not that I buy anywhere else besides Lego unless they're on sale because you don't get any VIP points

    I'm thinking about going to get the McLaren F1 tomorrow after work. But, it's about a 45 minute drive to the Lego store and depending on traffic too.
