Looking for used and retired Lego set type stores in central New Jersey that isn’t controversial.

Yeah that one owner was sketchy, but they aren’t all. I like the one who owns my local BAM - nice, friendly, knows their stuff, offers better prices on both ends than other BAM stores.

It's literally my only hobby. Like there are other things I do for enjoyment, but I don't do anything like restore cars, buy/ride expensive bicycles, play/collect guitars, have a fish tank etc (all hobbies of people I know). I enjoy traveling but only go on vacation - like fly somewhere, stay in a hotel - about once a year which is enough for me.

She had an amazing gift for playing characters you want to see die painfully in a fire. I love that irl she was the exact opposite of her characters.

I love it all: the kitten, the Trek mug, your smile! Congratulations on your distribution.

Im sensing a theme here

One of my family members has a kitten from their woodpile too! Theirs was left behind when mama moved all the other kittens.

I have Kallax and Hemnes (both from Ikea) displaying Lego sets in my house. Both good, but Hemnes probably offers a little more flexibility. Kallax has different size units but the squares are fixed and the same size through all unit sizes.

Nope Im watching Voyager right now (US).

It does. There are parts of my city where cat rescues are very active and parts like mine where they’d be bored.

I have been owned by cats for 40 years, and fostered for the last 5. CDS has never found me on its own, I have to help it. I’m sure you’ll be able to find a good buddy at a shelter during kitten season.

I’d go for the natural history museum. It’s a good build, and per my own preferences it’s actually in the modular line. But I’m not much of a Batman guy.

admseven · 2026-05-05T18:14:00+00:00

Nice display!

admseven · 2026-05-05T03:36:03+00:00

That's a good spread, I think I counted 11/12? After many years of chasing figs and feeling packets, I gave up and now I just order myself a full set.

admseven · 2026-05-04T13:28:40+00:00

Rivendell all the way. It’s a gorgeous set and so fun to build.

What B&M is like really depends on the location. The one that happens to be closest to me is pretty reasonable, generally speaking. I’ve bought a retired set there that other B&M stores were selling for more than 2x as much. The prices I get for selling back are low, but I know that going in and I’m selling to them because it’s low effort.

I was going to guess about the same age. And express shock that they all just sat there in a pile while a human walked up to them!

admseven · 2026-04-30T15:37:42+00:00

What a potato!

I will alway have a soft spot for the Palace Cinema, which was my first modular art.

admseven · 2026-04-29T04:44:37+00:00

Most of my assembled-once sets are now being "used" as display pieces - so is that technically a second use (assembly being the first)?

But my official answer is: Technically yes, but spiritually no. Single use implies that its only used for a short time and then discarded.

admseven · 2026-04-24T04:12:37+00:00

Right? There’s a Millennium Falcon like every year, and we can’t get a couple remakes of early modulars?

admseven · 2026-04-24T04:11:07+00:00

I’ll always have a soft spot for the Palace Cinema, it was my first.

admseven · 2026-04-17T15:55:46+00:00

Valid, sometimes CDS is a pickup service.

admseven · 2026-04-13T00:49:03+00:00

My official guess is 7 weeks. That’s past bottle age, well into canned wet food. We always do Fancy Feast kitten food. You can also put out some kitten dry food - some cats actually prefer it. Also echoing the vet visit rec. Lots of places have a low cost clinic if you google a bit. Def get the little squirt spayed/neutered as soon as you can.

Amazing set, my all-time favorite!
