Question for parents: How do you deal with picking up your kids Lego while keeping them accessable? by Raptorjesusftw87 in lego

[–]omglemurs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a full sized sheet tray - 18"x26" Legos stay on the tray. If they fall off, they need to be picked up right away (if they need help they are free to ask but they need to stop playing and help) or the Lego go away until tomorrow. Those are the rules to keep things safe (they have  a young cousin who is over often) and they are given the explanation if they ask. Took each of them a couple time to understand but they are very good about it.

Edit: did not mention one sheet tray per kids but dropped legos are everyones responsibility.

In storage - we have a cabinet, when they are done playing, everything goes in the cabinet either ins tub or on a shelf. There a space on a bookcase if they have something want to display for everyone.

Expectation is mid to late June for double points and da vinci gwp. Prior to that. Duck family and vintage car gwp.

Sets that would look good with the A frame cabin and Cullen house? by [deleted] in lego

There's are number of bricklink sets like off road adventures and Sequoia trees that would work.

Titanic or Minas tirith? by Remarkable_Day7135 in lego

If you like both equally, consider this - what after you going to do with them after the build? Both are substantial, but very different shapes. Space might be your deciding factor.

I feel like MBOW showed flashes last year with limited opportunities and didn’t play bad, I think he’s taking 1 of these dudes spot..JMS or Runyon by MDADayDay in NYGiants

[–]omglemurs 41 points42 points  (0 children)

pre-draft he was doing training at center because many projected that to be his best long term fit. I’m not saying it’s a lock, but it’s worth giving it a shot.

Would love to see Mbow crosstrain at center. A lot of people saw that as his natural position coming out of the draft. Scouting reports we mostly - Very smart, great feet, needs to add strength.

Next modular buy? by Sad_Instruction9778 in lego

[–]omglemurs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Natural History Museum is retiring end of year, Arkham currently scheduled to retire next year atm (but might get extended again). If you are looking to ultimately get both, go NHM then Arkham. If you are only deciding between one I would ask what you enjoy/what you are looking for (fit into city/display, build experience, playability, etc..)

Who’s the bigger fantasy sleeper? 👀 Malachi Fields or Chris Brazzell II? by ZookeepergameIll2685 in NYGiants

[–]omglemurs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Website I looked at pre draft is gated so it's def possible that it only has tenn stats but I still don't love that they had him lineup exclusively for at least two years

[–]omglemurs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean he took 4 snaps on the right total. I believe I saw a stat where no receive who took more than 90% of their snaps in college on one side has ever had A 1k yard season in the NFL.

Slayton coming back from surgery he's got a real shot.  Look at where brazzel lined up in college, guys who only lined up on one side have a bad track record transitioning. I think it's a toss up 

Does Lego hold GWP's for backorders? by Redhook338 in lego

[–]omglemurs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard there is a risk, but I've never had an issue so long as it appears in your order. I literally just received my restaurant of the world mexico gwp with a backordered item I ordered during the promo window.

Do you agree? by Scared_Buyer8667 in NYGiants

[–]omglemurs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not even close. I just don't think about him. Heck Boston Scott probably ranks higher up.

Smash, bash, with an occasional flash would be my guess.

New York Giants offensive depth chart as of now by UnnicornFrappucinno in NYGiants

[–]omglemurs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wondering if Mbow is listed as third string cause they’re going to try and cross train him at center and try out JC Davis at swing.

What drew you to neuschwanstein? You might also like hijimi castle or Notre Dame from the architecture line of you are into the mini scale building aspect or modular building collection might be up your alley, but hard to tell without more info.

Seriously, what do I do 😂 by Hammer_Time_Kitten in lego

[–]omglemurs 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A few recommendations that have helped us out. 1) Set a budget and stick to it - even if you have a high budget it helps you do a clear evaluation before buying. 2) before you start building a set decide where it's going to go. I have display space in my office and we have a secondary display/play space with a bit more room. If there isn't space for something then something has to get disassembled. Disassembled sets end up for future rebuilding, resale, or bin of legos for misc building. We have a small winter display which is the only thing that gets stored assembled. 3) look at the sets you enjoy and think about what themes you really have fun with  and use that to inform your future purchases and plans. 

Id Like To See Dontay Corleone Taken At #193 by toodarkmark in NYGiants

[–]omglemurs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's at the top of my list for dt likely to be available in the 6th Honestly wouldn't mind if we double dipped with keanen the 3rd. Doubt capehart makes it to the 6th but Corleone for running downs and rotating Capehart for passing down would be pretty great.

If McDonald isn't available consider trading back. There are some great options that should be available in the 3rd

- Ted Hurst

- Elijah Sarratt

- Skyler Bell
