Buzzetta Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 Have any idea when the Spider-Man ghost rider set will be available? I had June 3? Checked Amazon and toys r us.... It has a June 2016 release date. It may not show up on the shelves though until the very end of the month or the first week of July. It has already shown up on eBay though from overseas vendors so it is on the way. Lego Set 76058 for reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphN Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Have any idea when the Spider-Man ghost rider set will be available? I had June 3? Checked Amazon and toys r us.... From my understanding is that we aren't supposed to get those until August. Of course they are already available in Europe. I have seen a few moc's already for the bridge where they made 1 complete and it looks pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crnbrd Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Hey everyone the giant tie fighter is 75 dollars off for Amazon prime members as of right now. It's 125 instead of 200.

It's done really well and Ghost Riders bike is kick !!!. Also, the street corner set piece i thought i'd hate, but it's really nice once you see it in person.

Buzzetta Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Things I have seen. Someone leaked the upcoming 'new' Death Star... Full disclosure... I sold my extra Death Star 10188 back in March for $565 + shipping. I could not be happier that I did. It seems that Lego is taking a lazy route (like they did last Christmas with the annual Christmas set and rereleased Year 1's set) and simply reissuing it with a few updated minifigures. Wait what? Yes, I have seen the pics and they are reissuing it. Now back in 2008 the price point was $400. What will the price point be now? I am guessing that eight year later we are going to see a jump up to at least $100 making a full retail version of this set $500. I will be VERY surprised if there are any internal changes. All of the pics I have seen are clearly identical to the opened sample I still have. Rogue 1 Lego sets have completely leaked. Lego recalled the images but they are still there. Amazon Germany accidentally published them in high resolution and although they asked the normal sites to take them down they are still available. Yes, I have pics of everything mentioned but since Lego is asking sites to take them down I have not decided if I am going to post them here. Since they have not asked anyone to take down the new Death Star pics "YET"... I will post it here until they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crnbrd Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I purchased mine last Christmas. Glad I did it then. I've heard a lot of grumbling about this new death star on Instagram seems they changed Han Solos hair. Is this one of the 2 vip things mentioned on this month's calendar?

Buzzetta Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 I think it will be a VIP purchase closer to Rogue One given the tie in to the Death Star. It's definitely coming though - there might be an exclusive figure in there that I have not identified yet but it's not worth the price of a new Death Star. If it's that important I can wait for the Chinese ebay vendors to start making knock offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzetta Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Giving you all a heads up since these go QUICK every year. Lego purposely sells out / shorts these since they are no good to them after Christmas. Last year Advent calendars were sold out by Thanksgiving. They are priced the same on Amazon and Lego Shop at Home The Star Wars advent Calendar $40 Star Wars Advent Calendar on Lego Shop at Home Star Wars Advent Calendar on Amazon The City / Town Advent Calendar $30 City Advent Calendar on Lego Shop at Home City Advent Calendar on Amazon Pros and cons on who to order it from... If you are ordering the SW Advent then go with it from Lego itself. Lego is currently offering free shipping on any purchase $35 and up. So if you are looking for free shipping it doesn't matter. However if you order the Star Wars set through lego you can at least get some rewards points. If you are ordering the Firefighter centric city advent calendar and nothing else then you will not qualify for free shipping with lego and the rewards points you would earn pale in comparison to the money you save in shipping getting it through Amazon if you are a prime member. BTW - The City Lego one is already backordered. These do actually go pretty quickly. Side note... the links to do not benefit anyone. Originally I just opened the page up from a Lego site I visit. (FBTB.net if you want to go support them). I used the direct links to Amazon and Lego so it doesn't benefit anyone else but Lego or Amazon itself. I personally chose to order it using the Link from FBTB.net though to throw some love to that site. Edited September 2, 2016 by Buzzetta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzetta Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 BTW... why did I order the Advent Calendar ? Simple... I own one of these and have it on my coffee table. All of those little builds will find their way into a new maze board a few days after Christmas. When I saw the micro builds I thought it would be perfect for a customized game board. Lego Maze. Check out this google link... there are a lot of interesting customized boards for this set: Google Image Search - Custom Lego Maze boards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzetta Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 I already started my Christmas shopping... Going to probably throw one of these in toward the forum grab bag... and maybe a few other things. OR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
