    Thanks! Those are a little bit later production than I'd be looking for. Awesome looking sets though!

    Yea, via Bricklink, the 3 of them seem to be worth around $1000.

    Finished this one. I give it a 4 out of 5 stars. The result is great, but the only problem I had was that there could of been a better way to attach the station to the stand. You also need to be really gentle when attaching parts together.

    Just got this notice about my Round 1, Lego Designer order. Not that I mind so much, I just hope they hold up their end…

    In December, we sent an email to let you know your BrickLink Designer Program order was getting ready to ship. We wanted to clarify some info.

    Your order was placed on or after August 3rdwhen we made additional Round 1 sets available to pre-order. We made a mistake by not reminding you the sets you ordered in this second wave of pre-ordering wouldn’t start shipping until as late as June 2022. We’re sorry for not mentioning this and apologize if we’ve caused any confusion.

    If you have further questions about your order, please contact LEGO® Customer Service at https://LEGO.com/service.

    As always, thanks for your patience and understanding.

    Your LEGO® Service team

    It’s a bummer you might have to wait till June. At least you were able to secure a copy of something.

    Random question: does everyone's lego.com orders come Fedex?

    On the west coast fedex is absolute trash and I'm tempted to message Lego support and see if there's any way for me to pay more for or request them to ship it USPS or UPS (which are a thousand times more reliable, at least in my area of the country/state). If they only ship fedex though I can't imagine a way for them to do it some other way.

    For reference, my NYE order has been sitting in Oregon for going on three days now. Originally supposed to arrive last Thursday, who knows when it'll get here now :pout:

    Would be interested to know this as well. Fedex delivered my Santa set to my neighbor, took a week to sort that out.
    Plus FedEx and USPS usually leave my packages at the bottom of my steps or in the driveway depending on how heavy it is and how far (or not) theyre willing to walk with it. My UPS guy always puts stuff up on the porch and out of view from passersby.

    Yes, at least here in Florida. Has been that way for years. Just be glad it’s not Úsps out of cali... anything we buy from that state takes 1-2 weeks just to leave the state.

    Trying to get back into one of my stalled projects. There is a show coming up in April in Omaha that I'd like to have a new build for.

    Messing with the crab boat again; this will most likely be the one to see completion.
    2022-01-10 Crab Boat 01.jpg

    I started this smaller boat (only about 2 ft long...) last November. The basic hull design came about pretty quickly, but I've been stumbling with some of the final shaping/details. Really want to build this physically someday, though. Tried some improved techniques and I'm pleased with the results thus far.

    Lastly, I started tinkering with another very big, very dumb thing. Won't move very quickly, but we'll see if this goes anywhere or ends up another dead end...

    I picked up the Extreme Adventure vehicle set the other day and I did the alternate mobile base vehicle build first. I'm currently dismantling it and will do the extreme adventure build next. I haven't seen many of these on the used market locally so it was a pretty cool find!

    Last package that got shipped to me USPS from California got here in 3 days. I can’t remember the last time I got something fedex on time.

    Just a bummer to order Lego, get excited when it’s supposed to have been close to delivery, then have to wait another week. If they only ever ship fedex it’ll just be a fact of life I have to drink another beer or two over hah.
