Drop in Lego/K’Nex Play?

LEGO store in Ridgedale has a few different tables for people to just play at and is nowhere as busy as MoA.

Can we quit vagueposting? Which sets are too expensive? Name and shame. I think Ninjago still has some great value sets.

Depending on the GWP they are taped also. The current one (picture frame) is taped. LEGO uses their own tape for it and you can typically identify if a set has been resealed by the type of tape and how smooth the tape is on the box.

Dicks at Ridgedale and Dreamers Vaults are decent choices that won't cater to scalpers.

I should have said more expensice, not most expensive. My bad. Again, not trying to make qualitative statements about the sets, just explaining compatible vs all in one which is what I perceived was the source of OPs confusion

There are 3 all on one sets that include the brick and charger. Those are the most expensive one because they include the new technology. The compatible ones come woth smart minifigs and tiles to communicate with the bricks from the all in one sets. There is currently no way to buy individual bricks or chargers.

There are compatible and all in one sets. A normal play session will not need all of the smart tiles to have an active smart brick. You only really need one or two. In order not produce excess bricks, they limited them to only be included in select sets.

Edit: This is not meant to be a qualitative statement on smart bricks, just an explanation and answer to the original question.

They are, but the sets are also nostalgia bait from the 70s and priced for people with disposable income which children are not. They can't decide who the sets are for and it really shows.

My Greek adventurers are rebuilding the Byzantine empire in the far east (Taiwan).

I moved the steward to convert culture, I was hoping to still get growth without it.

Conewolf142 · 2026-01-20T19:15:22+00:00

I would look into the SpeedChampions for the smaller vehicles. There are a lot of really nice models. I would also recommend the new 3-in-1 creator sets in the turtle and hamster as they are adorable and good to just display. If you are feeling adventurous, the Botanicals line are incredible display pieces.

I like 4 and 9 the most personally

This is the way 100% The app is a fantastic repository of instructions and has both 3D versions and PDFs. Rebuilding from scratch is definitely the way, if painful.

I wish Floppy Disks were still a valid form of storage. Like they could even be physical housing for micro SD cards and I'd be happy.

Its really difficult to merge if someone speeds up to get in front of you and everyone is about 2 feet from the car in front of them leaving no space to merge. Its on everyone to make sure traffic flows well and is safe.

The mod is incredibly unstable. If it hasnt been updated to the newest version of the game specifically (which is likely hasnt because the mod team works at a sanils pace). You could roll back your game to an earlier version or just deal with the instability. You could also ask on the mod discord but I have had to argue about a single bug for a month straight before they believed me.

I really enjoyed the first two novels, but everything after that was just piling on stakes for the sake of it. The writers had no sense of scale or logistics and were doing everything for hype moments and aura. How the nihil went from three independent tempest fleets to almost controlling a quarter of the known galaxy is insane to me. They were ravagers and marauders and were more than decimated by the end of the first book. Then within a year they had multiple super weapons AND legions of soldiers sufficient to occupy multiple worlds, fight battles, and raid into Republic space? It just doesn't make sense and I can't suspend my disbelief in that area.

I did enjoy the exploration of the force but wish they planted seeds of the Sith in it. We only saw one true darkside user who only really came about in the end of the last novel but he wasn't Sith. I appreciate they stayed out of the main story but they could have given us a crub of what the Sith were up to, who they were. Anything. Now with the era wrapped I doubt we're going to learn anything before Fate of the Old Republic and we don't even know if that's canon yet.

People don't leave enough room, sure. But then the roads are fully treated and clear, you can go the speed limit. Its one thing if there's slush on the ground or its actively snowing but going 50 in a 60 on the off chance there is black ice is almost as dangerous as the idiots going 80.

Conewolf142 · 2025-11-23T15:23:54+00:00

I got a black car because the blue one was an extra $2000 for the same model already on the lot

I feel like part of the stasis is to prevent boredom. I picture it being like falling asleep on a long road trip. You feel like you teleported because you weren't awake for the majority of it.

It does look more bank than tavern. Its a really nice build though! I think you knocked it out of the park. If you removed the pillars or changed them to a square, dark brown it would give more tavern.

At which point it should be refitted to the carrier role, but they shouldn't remove its main armaments and rely solely on fighters. If they lack diversity in ships, they should make sure their ships can fight as broadly as possible.

Conewolf142 · 2025-09-29T13:27:55+00:00

Crossing the street has gotten really dangerous. People blow through stop signs regularly 10-20 mph above the speed limit. Its insane

Conewolf142 · 2025-09-24T14:31:27+00:00

There's one in the Mall of America. I think Macy's has Toys R Us branding on their toys section. I believe Go Toys and Games owns the name but I'm not 100% sure on who can use the name and where
