It's hard to pose and flimsy as fuck.

I used the squeeze method on two minifigure polybags, but i didn't get what i wanted in either of them
Any advice?

Cafe Corner has always been one that got away for me, but I don't if I'd consider it grail of grails. It was already around when I was 14 or so, and into Lego, but alas, never got one because I was dumb teenager and 150€ was crazy amount of money. Entered dark ages some time after.

>>6475144
It is. And, feet and the jetpack piece.

>>6475145

I'll understand why they made them different. Doesn't mean I have to like it.

>>6475177
The first one i looked for was the winged spear guy in Series 15, but mistook Janitor's Broom for his spear

and the other was the double-body samurai demon from the new Ninjago, but when i thought i had two bodies it was the old guy and his cereal box

>>6475192
>winged spear guy in Series 15
He has big piece of armor. Janitor doesn't. Try to put your fingers to the hole torso goes to.

>double-body samurai demon
Which one? For normal Garmadon, check for bar piece. His hat also has flat top, as opposed to Wu's slightly pointed one. For flashback, go for 2x2 tile and pajama, feel for helmet or kitchenware. Sensei has brick and tile which is something that none of them have.

Never feel for only one thing if you're not sure. Try to confirm with something.

>>6475147
Monorail!

MONORAIL!

MONOOOOOOOORAIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>6475203
Thanks
But it's also a bit annoying, since the only store i know of nearby that sell them place them right by the counter, so it's not unusual that the workers start eyeing me
Do you get that?

>>6475211
Not really, because every store that stocks CMF here have them at Lego aisle.

>>6475211
Well, you could always just buy a bunch and then return the ones you don't want.

>>6475203
Oh, and also, the normal garmadon, but there are at least two figures in that series with a bar like that
Guess i'll go by the hat

I like whimsical fantasy stuff. Green is also my favorite color, so I wanted to get the green dragon for modding. When the set came out, I was in a place where the exchange rate was bad and a Lego store was my only Lego retailer. I waited too long for a deal which never came, and then it was gone. I'll probably just Bricklink the dragon one of these days.

>>6475211
>it's not unusual that the workers start eyeing me
I used to worry about this, then I realised the worst that can happen is they ask you to stop feeling the bags. And if you're just worried about looking a weirdo, well, you're an adult and you're buying Lego, there will always be people that think you're weird for that so fuck 'em

>>6475147
it used to be 6339 Shuttle Launch Pad, but I realised removing nostalgia, it's not an impressive set compared to more recent/shuttles/launchpads

>what's that grail you want so badly /lg/?

>>6475269
>who take everything for granted
Where did you get that

When I was a kid we lived in a Depression-era house without central heating, just an old furnace in the living room that we'd all gather around in the winter. We literally kept a cow in the house for heat whenever the furnace would quit working. I slept with an electric blanket because the temperature in the room I shared with my sisters got below freezing. Until I was in school, the only Legos I had were a shoebox of loose pieces that a neighbor gave us. After my parents got better jobs they could afford to buy me more stuff but I'm still the cheapest person I know because of how I was raised.

I don't want to turn this into a pissing contest, but I cherish all my broken pieces and don't throw any of them away. Maybe I misspoke; I should have said, "the only time I would ever consider it possible to convince my parents to spend $100 on me was if it was almost Christmas".

>>6475334
You think THAT'S bad? We lived in a single room apartment with no running water, so everyday I had to boil sea water to drink any. My parents fed me nothing but street tar and quicklime until I was 15. I had to perform cold fusion to keep us warm in the -70 degrees in winters.

>>6475345
You think that's bad, I lived in New Jersey.

>>6475345
COLD fusion! such luxury, we had our skins slough off from the heat and rad burns every fortnight, and

>>6475347
fuck, you win

>>6475347
Can't top that.

>>6475231
I would say its a solid set.

>>6475428
>Jang mostly reviews bullshit ninjago and chima etc. sets, though.
That's not true. He's done all the nexo sets from the past wave, and besides big bang stuff, all of the City stuff from this year's summer wave. And lots of StarWars stuff, and all the TLBM sets. You're just really wrong.

>>6475439
>You're just really wrong
Don't sperg out, retard. I was using exaggeration
You did not understand the meaning of my sentence, which was to say that JANG mostly does new set reviews, opposed to vintage set reviews, which is why people like Bricktzar are fun to watch

>>6475454
>which was to say that JANG mostly does new set reviews,
Then say that, instead of implying that he misses 90% of lego's product line by ignoring all but a handful of themes.

A healthy person can understand rhetorical and figurative speech, but to you, specifically, I will make everything clear and explain things very slowly

Not him but I don't see how being able to understand figurative speech has anything to do with your original statement which objectively meant absolutely nothing related to your intended point.

I've been looking at the instructions for these Friends sets, and I realized something that bothered me in the official pics.

There are no workers! Sure, there are sets where the girls own and operate their own small startup businesses - lemonade stands, smoothie stands, and foal-washing stations, but the Heartlake Mall comes with four minidolls, one who shops at the sporting goods store, one who's getting a facial, one there to take pictures of the dog show, and... ok, the DJ is technically working there, but where are the cooks, the cashiers, the manicurists? Is the boy with the camera skipping out on his pizza job to take pictures of dogs? Is it a do-it-yourself spa with a suggested donation box?

This mall exists in a capitalist vacuum where the minidolls are free to wander in and out of shops, taking goods and services willy-nilly with no oversight. Paradisa box art businesses were always staffed to ensure children understood their place in the market.

>>6476029
Why would you need employees and workers if everything's automated?

This is a brave new world, created when the fleshies finally exterminated all of the yellowfigs. Now everyone's genetically-engineered to become perfect beings, free of work.

And don't worry kids, you'll have lots of time to sit and visit, because this plane's not going anywhere without a pilot!

>>6476029
minifigs are the worker class
That's why they're always scientists and construction workers and space ninjas. The minidolls live a life of privilege. Doing as they please and running shell business to occupy their time between visits to the pop star mansion and Stacy's dog park

>>6476084
Technic are genetically-engineered giant workers created by yellowfigs long ago to run the giant machines that mine for klocki. Since then, the others have co-opted their labor.

Jack Stone is the untouchable caste.

>>6476029
That mall has too many stores. It should have a single Bath and Body Works, and the other stores should all be empty.

I tried to find out his address so I could send him some unique pieces and my sigfig, but I'm not a detective enough to get it. Anyone know? I remember one video where he read some stuff from fans, the 300,000 sub special, so is his address is probably out there. I even wrote a touching note as well. I think he lives in the Bay Area. If some Anon could help me out, that would be fantastic.

>>6476911
I was talking about Bricktzar. He looks and sounds like he is from a different planet. I think he is from that ocean planet kamino where they clone australian people

I do wonder where M Night Shangbumni is from though. Maybe Bangladesh or something

Price per parts, you can't beat big direct to consumer sets. Even if you tire of the set itself you have nearly 5000 pieces in a variety of colors.

yes.

expensive, but the price per part ratio is pretty good

it is a really nice huge set with lots of details

In the last couple years I've noticed they've been doing some City sub themes that have nothing to do with the police or fire dept. There were the Deep sea divers/salvagers, volcano researchers, and just recently some jungle expedition sets came out and they have a cool new panther/jaguar as well as a man eating plant, the updated crocodile and I think new tarantula piece. I think there were also a bunch of airport sets too.

>>6477205
Yeah the jungle sets are cool. The thing about City is tha tthey're a bit to plain so they don't do much for me. Even as a kid I thought city was meh. Why would I want a Garbage Truck when I could get, say, an alien space ship or an evil knights lair?

>>6477236
Honestly, I think that's charming though. It kind of fits in with the absurdity of the world. I could totally see this as a bit in a Lego movie--normally small items that have to be huge in order to fit the single-size Minifig grip hands. It's a really good in-world gag, don't destroy that.

>>6477244
Yeah, I think I agree. Lego has bizarre proportions and both the fans and TLC cherish that

I am still unsure about the pack of cigs, though. It looks off.

Apparently it's easier for them if you give them the element number, not the part number.

I had all the part numbers written down, but once I started the order, I started searching them all to give the rep the element numbers instead.

So I'm trying to rate the Juniors Batman vs. Mr. Freeze set. I'm thinking a solid 7/10 for Playablity and a passing grade for Swooshability. But what about WLGSBT-ability? I figure a B or C, but I'm not the expert on that.

>>6477743
I would rate it fairly low because of the bat fins on the back and the overall ovoid shape.

Do Juniors sets have alt builds on the back? Maybe one of them would rate higher.

At a time I had money, I wanted to gift the Tal mahal to my mom. It went off the shelf about a month before I could finally buy it.

I have a Lego Clone Building Event box from like a decade ago when they held the event at Toys R Us.

Each box originally had 100 clones but I have about 10 that came with it.

Is the box worth anything?

>tfw spacex set never

>>6478140
Recently at the local store picking up some stuff and one of the clerks asked if I build them because she sees a lot of people buying lots of the same set, especially the Star Wars ones. I didn't think that many people got suckered into the whole 'LEGO is better than gold" thing.

>>6478149

I guarantee people will be hoarding the new Falcon set thinking it will take off like the old one.

At the same time, I kind of like this trend. Lots of resellers out there so when a set goes out of production, there's always a steady supply competing with each other. Only problem is that old sets pre-investment era have shot up in price.

Is the lighthouse 3-1 creator set legit?

I want those cavemen but I also just want a cozy fishing/sea set up.

I always thought I was biased against DC for thinking their sets were shit (I'm a Marvelfag) but maybe not. Why the imbalance?

>>6477316
where's the cereal from?

>>6478052

I'll wait for it to not be over £100 because I'm patient and I know the price will plummet several times during its shelf life. The 6x6 Tow Truck can fuck off though - I'll just BaP the bits I want in about 8 months when they become available.

Still waiting for a Pirates+Sci-fi theme

The Ninjago subtheme with air pirates was pretty cool though.

>>6478149
>>6478151

I suspect that the investments articles are sponsored by aforementioned pre-investment era hoarders who are getting a bit impatient at being unable to get rid of items at prices that make people think "I can get a shitload of new sets for the money they're asking".

>nope, it was rocker dude, my absolute least favorite of the bunch

Well, he has some neat parts but honestly I could've gone without. Picked one bag at random too, and got Misako which is okay.

But then I realized she has one of my absolute pet peeves, where the design on torso continues to legs, which makes them more or less unusable separately. Ninjago movie in general is filled with these

Since when did inbred rednecks like Lego?

>>6475244
I used to be embarrassed buying lego when I first left my dark ages. Then I would tell them it's for me and my nephew to build together. Now if they ask I say it's for me but hey, at least I'm not buying drugs anymore. (I still buy drugs)

The helicopter from 70163 is kind of nice. I really regret not grabbing 70815 at clearance. Told myself I wanted to do a helo conversion to it, but never picked it up.

>>6478052

Lego Star Wars has been really bad about letting designers go crazy adding unnecessary lines and details to faces. Especially Luke's face, for some reason.

>>6478285
Apparently yes. There are a few gems on youtube, such as this:

Thanks again to the anon that told me to call it in. I was just about to place an online order when you posted.

>>6478326
You're welcome!
I love BL, but some of the new parts are ridiculous on there.

>>6478326
Do you guys think that it'll get cheaper once the new wave is almost done?
I can't see myself paying $5 for a figure

>Do you guys think that it'll get cheaper once the new wave is almost done?
Not by much, because cracklink prices are usually determined by scarcity, and most of the pieces circulating there are from people who harvested sets, so you only get one tiger per $150 set. Keep in mind that you are never going to see them cheaper than what Lego is currently selling them for online, because resellers who are buying them in bulk will be marking them up from that price.

If you want them, and don't want to pay $8-10 per cat and have to make multiple orders to get all the ones you want, you should probably just buy a lot of them directly from Lego right now.

I have the feeling this is the only set the tiger is ever going to appear in.

>>6478376
Anon makes good points. Get what you need from B&P before the resellers clean them out. I also concur that this might be the tiger's only appearance.
