    I've been waiting to pick up the T2 Camper or Technic Tow Truck. Now is the time.

    Based the cab off of a MOC I found. The rest of the truck is my own work.

    stopped by a local mom and pop toy store. they had a half box of minifigs. lucky there was a Rowlf and a Statler in there - got all the Muppets now!! :woot:

    and they had sign up sheets for a lego building contest. each weekend this summer is a different age category. the adult contest is July 23/24. was tempted to sign up but i'd want to bring the camper. and i haven't ordered a single thing for it.

    Is that through BrickLink?

    If not, I've developed some ways to minimize add on parts not order or searching for part when it's obvious the system finds a vendor who is gouging..

    yeah, that's just the estimate in studio. i know some of the prices are inflated and the basic bricks are available direct from Lego PAB for a lot less.

    But why

    Studio really is just an estimate. I've often gotten Bricklink orders for less than Studio estimates the parts. Also, it's worth comparing PAB to Bricklink - a surprising amount of parts are less costly on the latter.

    I’ve never found the right part/color I’m looking for on PAB. Congrats to all who’ve had success :thumbsup:

    I guess I've never used PAB, always Bricks and Pieces. Generally had decent results except for the nebulous lead times. Haven't order from the new combined system, either.
