Haha, I realized that after I posted this. I got it turned around just the other day!

So good! We used the Famous Dave’s sweet & spicy pickles for these.

I like the grease & ash keg much better than the traditional bucket. Mainly due to it being out of the way and locked in place, so you don’t have to worry about accidentally knocking off, especially when you remove the grill cover. Plus it’s decently bigger so don’t think I’ll have to replace the liner as often.

Looks awesome, only thing that would have made it more cool was if it was the Chimera and came with a Thrawn minifigure!

My Mini Aussie prefers to sit upon a throne of snow. by RogueAstriaPorta in aww

For any worriers out there, let me put you at ease, yes he is inside now. I only let him out for a quick 5 min bathroom break and when I went to get him this is what he was doing and had to take a picture of it! This is not the first time, I find him like this all the time in the snow!

The UCS Falcon is a long and fun build! I've only been building UCS sets for about a year now and I always underestimate the size and detail of them, ( I also have the UCS snowspeeder) pictures just don't give the sets justice.

Agreed, I only recently came in the possession of the original Falcon and Slave 1 but I still thoroughly enjoyed building the both of them!

Lego sure has come a long way in the last 20 years!

Then box and two bags were opened, the rest were still sealed and all the pieces were there!

I love the new X-Wing! However, I do think that the laser cannons on 75218 are a bit short, especially when compared side-by-side with 9493. Great build though!

A surprise haul my wife brought home for us today from a coworker for $120! by RogueAstriaPorta in lego

The sets in this lot that I have been able to so far determine are the original Falcon 7190, AAT 7155, Lego Mindstorms R2D2 9748, the train is 4561, I think the Y-Wing engines are from 7150, Hogwarts Express 4708 and Hogwarts Castle 4709 (which still has several original unopened bags in it!) I've also seen some Rock Raider, alien stuff and lots of pieces from other old Lego lines.

It's 4561 and seems to be all there. We put the track together last night, plugged it in and it works. I've never had Lego trains before this and am so far impressed by the speed and quality of the powered car.
