    The VIP Target app still shows active.
    Not sure how to do it without the paper receipt, any suggestions?

    figured out the screenshot thing, and had to upload two separate shots since I'm not able to get the entire receipt on one. But had the order number in both... Let's see if it's accepted...:fingerscrossed:

    I learned today that you only get 1 pt per dollar through target instead of the 6.5pts/$ direct from lego. Better than nothing

    Built the Blacktron Cruiser. It's a really neat set; nice update if the classic Invader and pairs well with the Galaxy Explorer.

    20230101_211656.jpg

    I still have to harp on a few things, though. Lego is very pricey and a "premium product". The threshold to get this GWP is incredibly high at $190. For all of this expense, the pain instructions seem very cheap.

    20230101_202338.jpg

    And we can now add black to the list of colors with mismatched hues/texture

    20230101_203514.jpg

    I bought into the GWP hype (as usual), but the Cruiser would have been more satisfying as a regular retail set.

    its actually got bigger tires on it now, and those minifigures, of me and the wife.

    never swapped in some white short doors, and at one point tried to stretch the cab longer to make it a real crew cab. but it was already to long with the full sized bed, i may need to pull this off my shelf and work it over again

    Instructions and the more important boxes go in the linen closet. I don't know why, it was just an empty place to store things at the time.

    Shoot, I still haven't figured out what to do with the Legos themselves. They are sort of scattered around the house, shoved on various random shelves. :notsure::notsure:
