LEGO / Re: Legos
« on: September 27, 2011, 01:27 PM »
I joined the Club at Disney World last month.  They just opened a LegoLand or whatever it is called, here in town.

I ordered a case of Wave 1, working on Series 2 and 3 with a guy, so if that Happens, there should be plenty more giveaways...not quite to the scale of the SDCC Death Star, but cheaper to mail!

I saw that they did "Old West" Legos... that is where the boy is going to start.

And somebody did some nice GI Joe:Real American Hero customs...

Ok guys we have a problem.   

My son just discovered "Legos".  He is 3. We skipped duplo and went straight to mini-figs. 

This means I am now 4 waves behind and playing catch up. 

I am willing to buy any extras anyone has.  I am also going to buy a couple cases of earlier waves and we can do a giveaway after I get a complete set. ( I know this is not the classified section, but I asked the site owner for permission and after paying a fee, got a variance this time)

I was at the Toys R Us getting Wave 4 and 5 using the Braile method when the Guest relations person stops by and asks bow successful I am with that method. I told her I was kinda new to it, but could tell certain figures pretty good.  She said to stay where I was was and returned with a guide to determine which figures are in the package by reading the dots along the bottom fused edge.   I have not had a chance to google it, but once I find it I will post it here.   

Do Legos ever go on clearance?  Are they ever at Big Lots/Ross type stores?  At this point my son doesn't want particular sets, I just thought I'd snag some cheap ones.

Yeah anybody wanna help me out at the show? 

As JJ and Jeff and Rob can attest I am pretty useless at Show.  And factors have conspired against us getting more than just me there.

I had a Hot Dog from a Street Vendor the first year, Pizza at a Pizza place last time.... this year I don't have mapped out, but certainly some "toursity" "cliche" thing... Carnegie Deli?

Thanks everybody! I must say, I'm totally excited about getting this. This will be the first item I keep in the package, and it will most certainly be one of the highlights of my collection. And I can't thank JD.com enough for the awesome contest and prize.

Did it get there yet?

You are leaving it in the package?  That is really cool.  I was tempted to open it up and look inside while it was here at the office, but thought the eventual winner might want a good box.

Notice they sent it to me in a shipping box too. 

Congrats GREG!  I am thrilled it went to a good home.  Worth all the effort to get one hearing that.

No Leia or Endor Rebel in my case.  I got Jango Fett though...

The hoth rebel tech is just "meh"...

I will have to see how he looks with the other guys, but honestly, this could be my last wave.  The collection may be as "complete" as it is going to get for me.

Star Wars Universe / Re: Star Wars on Blu-Ray
« on: September 17, 2011, 07:59 AM »
For "Abomination Release Day", I popped in the AVCHD's of Harmy's Despecialized Edition.  Free of charge, no money to Lucas, and more care went into them than the Blu-rays.  I'll just get the bonuses off the Internet.

I guess I don't have to ask if the the otheR Site's forums are still down......

What was the end result of the kickoff rule after the first weekend?

I think the TD's were a result of teams not focusing on coverage during the shortened off-season.

Can't wait for tonight to watch 2 games with Teams without a team I root for involved.

Dear Tony Romo,

OMG you suck.  Please stick to golf, so the Cowboys can use the #1 pick after the upcoming 0-16 season on a Quarterback.
Unless Jerry Jones trades the pick for a bag of magic beans.

Love,

ME

(yes a little dramatic and I know the Cowboys have no chance this year, but damn I wanted more than 30 minutes of hope this season)

Definately! Great prizes there! It's good to have some giveaways again.

Tell me about it.  Spreading the addiction fun is the part of the hobby I enjoy most nowadays.

205
Check the Front page. I was able to snag one So get your entries in.

206
Anything new?  Or just re-re-re-releases of the same old stuff?

Have they figured out the Paint apps for figures yet?

207

Woohoo!  Very cool.  Did you get the rest of your personal stuff as well or just this?

No but the set I gave my son has been abandoned for Smurfs so I am going to just "share" with him.

As far as the Star Wars set goes, I ordered the Case from EE.com that has the Revenge figs plus Walrus Man and Hoth Rebel, so I am not worried.


208
Wait, what are they going for on Ebay?  I might "let" you win it and we can split it....

Also kidding....

I sold the other 45 I got from HTS...I am just giving the ONE away.  After I did a figure swap with all Crystal Skull figs.

209
Ok, I got one in from HTS for the site to give away.............. watch this space and the front page for details.

Local guy got his today.

Mine is still DOA.  So I think I have missed the boat.

Oh and I lost the bet, he did indeed get the set.  In the Boxed Set Shipping box even.

So no Indy set, Paul? Also, wasn't there going to be a contest here for a Death Star?

The mailman just dropped off a box with the Indy Set.  So it looks like we will be having a partial giveaway....
