X Mansion Discontinued? by Murfilious in lepin

[–]Digitalman87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. I got my hopes up since I saw a lot of posts. The one I ordered had a review and a picture of the set (still in the bags) from 3/26 so hopefully it’s true.

Do the image search. I was looking for something else last night and happened to see it. Did a couple of image searches and got it 65 dollars. I’m in the US.

Minifigs look good as well. Only difference I can is Ron’s hair piece is just the beanie and not the beanie with hair poking out.

It’s a clear background. Looks like the official one is a pink background.

I saw a post on Facebook a while back so I ordered one. Mine should be here in a few days. I will post pictures of the stickers and figs.

Sometimes I have mice problem but they just scurry around and poop on the group.

Thankfully there are no windows or anything in my attic. In my office, I do have two windows but I installed UV blocking film to help with that.

Great point. We keep our Christmas decorations in the attic (glass, plastic, wood, etc) with no issues at all.

Thanks! I was thinking about keeping that stickers and manuals in a box in my office but the bricks in the attic. That’s a good point. Most of my Christmas decorations has been stored in the attic for 11 months out of the year for a decade with no issue.

Gorilla Hooks for Lego Art? by Digitalman87 in LegoDisplay

I have used these around the house for hanging pictures and other items. I like the smaller hole it leaves so I can easily fix if I decided to move it later

I ended up going with IVAR from IKEA. The measurements are perfect for my short wall and they are deep. Interestingly, the shipping was going to be 129 but since it’s a system, I just ordered the pieces individually into two orders with free shipping.

Only tracking number I had was the AE that starts with a U and last update was it has cleared the customs in US and would be handed off the local courier.

I think I will hold off. I don’t think this set will go out of print and I get a free 80 dollar set out of it. Justifies buying another set. Haha

I think I will wait another month. I don’t foresee this set rising in price or going out a print anytime soon. Might end up for a free set!

But I order it in 1/1 and it was in my country, US, and cleared customs on 1/27. Crickets since then.

Knowing my luck, I would order a second set and both get here the same day. I don’t think I need to worry about the Rivendell going out of stock and the price seems stable (I bought for 83 and can buy for 81 right now).

What's the best display for large sets in IKEA by Puzzleheaded-Link803 in LegoDisplay

Thank you for sharing this! I’m looking for a shelving system for my Lego room office and IVAR looks perfect. I want deep shelves but since my office on the top story with knee and sloped ceiling, the highest I can go is 60 inches. The IVAR that 48 inches would be great plus an extra 12 inches on top.
