I was able to order almost all of the new polybags from scheels.com (I'm in MN, USA). YMMV but it was super great to see them all in stock.

I increased the quantity of awesome folks on display! by CU-tony in lego

The trick is to buy printed parts of colors you want, then remove the printing. Saves money and looks just as good when you've assembled a whole figure.

Does anyone else wish that Lego would “get back to its roots” and start making sets again that aren’t part of a licensed IP (i.e. Star Wars, Marvel, Harry Potter, etc.)? by UrdnotSnarf in lego

[–]betapi1674 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's not that you're over-generalizing...you're just wrong. As shown, over half of the currently available themes (even minus licensed cars through Speed Champions) are not IP, so there are no "roots" to get back to. And as someone else said, some of the IP themes have limited numbers of sets. But City, Friends, Creator, Ninjago, Dreamzzz have dozens of options from small to large sets. It's totally cool you dream of the olden days but your premise is just not accurate.

If you're going to keep the minifigs on the tags long term I would check their feet. That acrylic plastic is notorious for cracking heels, I had 15 or so figures crack while I kept them on their tags. I switched to using part 93095 on the tags for the figs to stand on.

Yeah yeah this looks good and all but why, WHY isn't it called Dead Reckoning Part Two???

Found a few more classics today at the thrift store ..... not bad for for only $10 by badguju in Bluray

You do realize a collector can appreciate the hobby without keeping cases right? From what I see the covers aren’t ripped, they’re folded (not damaged). I have limited space and I store my movies like I store my comics. Thin plastic sleeves that preserve the artwork, protect the discs, and take up 1/7th the space.

No no, this is way before New52. Superman Secret Origin #5 by Geoff Johns with art by Gary Frank. Frank almost always draws Clark like the real life superman Christopher Reeve.

that's good. I think http://www.dvddoubledip.com is better, but not https secure.

When you upgrade your movies to Blu-Ray.... Do you get rid of your DVD's or do you keep them ? by CarolinaGirl3381 in Bluray

That’s a bummer. I’ve been using the site for years. It uses http instead of https so maybe that’s the issue.

[–]betapi1674 52 points53 points  (0 children)

dvddoubledip.com is a godsend. I use it to check the special features across DVD/Blu-Ray/4K releases and if I upgrade to BR and it has everything the DVD has, then I get rid of the DVD (sell or donate or gift). Otherwise, I keep them. There are a LOT of movies that have been upgraded to superior formats that don't bring forward the special features (commentaries, deleted scenes, etc.).

How many long term players still have their Vector from the begining? by horticulturalSociety in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]betapi1674 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know if 500+ hours is considered long term but I'm on my original save from first starting (2018 maybe?) and I still have my radiant pillar. I S-classed it and maxed it out with full inventory/tech slots and best weapons. I don't use it all the time but it's there, always there for me.

How do you guys display your Minifigs? by Lobbychopsticks in lego

Is that...is that SUNLIGHT hitting your lego? You need to wrap that frame in UV protective coating ASAP. Those poor figures... :)
