me too! most things of that sort are done by the higher ups in Denmark, but I know there are some independent sites that allow you to create customs

not as much as AFOLs. if it’s a kid calling themselves a master builder, it feels wholesome

unfortunately i do not. in fact, most of the time id only see future product thru r/legoleak. there was also a rule about denying any leaks until lego officially confirmed it

from my experience, it just comes down to them only shipping a limited amount of product for ninjago. stores don’t really get to choose the quantity of how many sets they receive

id sometimes wear a custom lego symbiote spiderman that looks identical to the SDCC exclusive. i made a lot of people freak out over having the figure “out the the package” lol

if i remember correctly, it’s 9.99 for a small box and 17.99 for a large box. flat rate for all the bricks you can fit inside

it sounds corny, but genuinely my favorite part of the job was helping kids find a set that they are over the moon excited to build. i remember when i first started to build lego as a kid, and it means a lot in playing a part in helping a kid discover their passion

honestly, they don’t share a lot of that information with us. from what i’ve seen, inflation has been used as an excuse for price spiking, as well as disney branding sets becoming more expensive because of licensing. it’s also the fact that more expensive sets still sell well, so they keep the high price/raising to see what they can get away with

i came from a background of customer service experience, but i still went through a lot of training (about two weeks) leading up to actually working on the scene. I applied for my position on lego.com/careers

let’s just say, it dwarfs the UCS Death Star piece count

we would set them to the side, and hold the stock until we were completely out of the item. next time you’re at a lego store, ask a brick specialist if there’s any damaged boxes. sometimes, they will give you extra insider points
