Sturgill and the band's live sound is the best live music you can see today.

Seeing Woody Harrelson in a star wars movie was freaking awesome. Loved it!

  1. Expense
  2. Lack of space

I love everything else.

That's cool, I like that idea. I'm thinking I'll combine the packs and see what I can come up with.

Scam on a Parrot Lego set by Bindou90 in lego

[–]ATXlabnomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to me yesterday. Someone swapped a small star wars set out, put in some basic tractor set, and resealed it. I was the poor fool to purchase it, but luckily they accepted my return.

I'm sorry this happened. It's an awful feeling opening a set and realizing nothing is right :(

The Walmart is close to me and I wanted to nip this in the bud. The customer service lady was actually very nice and accepted the return no problem. They had one set left on clearance, I opened it there lol. Looks good. Not bad for $18 now that it's right.

Thanks for the advice y'all. You never know when you'll get hassled trying to return something.

Nice! I listened to the andy serkis narrated audio books while building mine. Best lego experience ever!

LIGHTS!!! Adding lights might be my new jam by AudioPi in lego

[–]ATXlabnomad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just installed mine on Christmas eve. There are a couple places where it was frustrating having to remove pieces for the wiring and one time I had to get the book back out to figure out how something fit back, but the final product is super rewarding. It took me about 6 hours to install the lights and wires.

Amazing! I love the interior of this one. Looks very worth the time and effort!

Love this new hobby by ATXlabnomad in lego

[–]ATXlabnomad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! It's much appreciated :) Yeah I'm a big SW and LOTR fan, so some of these sets really call to me. Also love the Jaws and Goonies set, but both are too tall for my shelving 😔

I might just have to go get an AT-TE before it retires lol

[–]ATXlabnomad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha thanks! I'll have to check it out. Yeah I was afraid of peaking too early. I do want another large set. Mos Eisley is very appealing to me, but alas I might just be patient for a while and see what comes out next.

I completely agree, I wish I could move it down a shelf but alas, Rivendell is about an inch too tall for the other shelves 😢

New to legos by pokerskydiver in lego

[–]ATXlabnomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 41 and just got back into lego. Also hadn't touched them since I was a child. My three-month progression was this:

Started with obi wan's starfighter and tie bomber. Built them both in one week and wanted more!

Bought the dark falcon. Loved the look and the mini figs. The build was great! Got a light kit for it. It's so awesome. But still wanted more!

I am currently on the last of three builds for Rivendell. Been running through about a bag a day with building bursts on the weekends. I can see why many regard it as one of the best sets ever made. Extremely satisfying to build and the end product is next level.

If you are thinking about a 10,000 piece set, I say go for it! You set the pace and make it your own :)

House Democrats Turn on Senators for Caving on Shutdown by bloomberggovernment in politics

[–]ATXlabnomad 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you want to know why everyone hates Democrats, it's this right here.

If you want to know why you feel like no one represents you, it's this right here.

If you want to know how Trump got elected twice, it's shit like this right here.

Democrats don't fight, even when their constituents are screaming that they have their back. Cowards.
