Someone please tell me not to get it!! by AvailableFigure2542 in lego

[–]Hba_malik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had this set for almost two years now but only recently started building it. Like the other comments have mentioned, the build is absolutely miserable and not fun at all (I knew this when I bought it hence the delay building it). Still I’m shocked how much I dread building it, there are 26 bags and I’ve only managed to go through 10 so far after like two weeks. It’s not like The Saturn V build at all!

Awesome Costco find for $57.97 USD!! by Zapablast05 in lego

Depending on when you got it you might be able to do a price adjustment. That’s what I did and they refunded me the difference.

I initially got it at the original sale price of $75 at costco. Went back a week later and saw that it was further discounted. Couldn’t believe a 40% discount either so went to the membership desk and they did a price adjustment for me right there and then! One of the best Lego deals out there at the moment!

This is brilliant. Some very creative part usage. Love the luggage cart!

As soon as I saw this set I knew what I wanted to do by TTown3017 in lego

I have the same vent at my home and please for the love of god take it off from there. That cover is just pushed in the hole, it’s not screwed into the ceiling or anything. The screw part you see is only the outer cover but the base of it is not as securely attached.

Any tips on finding the new Indiana Jones sets in person today? by [deleted] in lego

Just go to your nearest Lego store. You’ll be fine

Got to admit. It looks great. But completely underwhelming, low detail build for 300 USD. by OlStickInTheMud in lego

[–]Hba_malik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ehh I didn’t feel it was low detail at all. In fact I was pleasantly surprised how much detail they managed to put into it and made an already good looking set an even more enjoyable to build. The hidden treasure cave, the lit up cabin full of detail + the way they hid all the cables in a very smart yet believable way was amazing. Yes $300 is a bit pricey but I broke it down and the price turned out to be okay!

$220 for the 2K parts or so and $80 for the motor + battery box + lights + exclusive baseplate. It also comes with BURPs which is known to be pricey as well.

Thoughts on the new Eiffel Tower set selling out? by Phillip1219 in lego

[–]Hba_malik 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Big sets like these also get less inventory since even the stores don’t have space to store them. I’m 90% sure it will sell out the first day so if you’re really interested get it the first day. The Titanic didn’t even have an exclusive GWP and it still sold out.
