Nobody asked, but the new CMFs have some pretty neat aspects in person. Ones with transparent parts in particular, IMO. The nursebot has these cool trans blue arms and all of Orion's limbs are trans purple - looks great with the star print (same with the solid black with print on the flying...

Series 26 CMFs are out at Walmart, if that's something you're interested in. There was a fresh display box at mine today when I stopped in unexpectedly.

Android here too. Literally a free phone, the cheapest one Verizon had, I got for trading in an ancient Samsung Galaxy. TCL, like the Chinese company that makes the garbage flatscreen TVs you see on heavy discount for Black Friday every year. I actually did use an app apparently, "QR and Barcode...

Maybe the codes have changed again since, but the big ones scanned just fine for me when I finally found boxes with them instead of the small ones: https://jaysbrickblog.com/news/it-looks-like-lego-minifigures-series-25-qr-codes-could-reliably-reveal-contents-inside/ didn't need a special app or...

They're funny over there, IDK why leaked images of real sets are such a pain point for the mods. Instead lets see another picture from someone who dropped $1500 3 days ago to buy all the newest modular/technic/UCS sets at once and fawn over their amazing display of wealth. :rolleyes:

It's up for preorder on S@H now too, same $35 price FYI.

I love it, and am all for the new inclusive minfigs, but have to laugh at the idea of an astronaut in a wheelchair.

I got my damn goats the old-fashioned way, by looking like a creep at the Lego Store while fingering every box in the crate. The manager on duty was a good sport about it though, we had a laugh when I brought out the kitchen scale and gave up trying to scan QR codes. It's the only figure that...

Guaranteed 6-packs would be a nice alternative. Of course they'd split up the anticipated chase figures, but I might be more willing to spend a bit more and take on less desirable figures if I knew I'd get the ones I actually want, too. As it is, I bought these 24 expecting to return 12...

Can I just complain about the CMFs? I ordered 24 from S@H, hoping to maybe get at least 2-3 goats... well I got 1, along with like 6 gamers and 6 dog groomers. Not that I wanted it, but 24 packs didn't even get me a full set. The intent all along was to return the ones I don't want, but man what...

Yeah, October is going to be an expensive month. 😐

Not a deal, but reminder the Bricklink designer sets are up for preorder now (site's getting crushed with traffic, naturally).

Looks like the shape of the original Cyclops visor is molded into the helmet instead. Consider me whelmed. I'll seek out the M-Tron, Ice Planet, and Blacktron, and nurse figures, the rest I can take or leave. I like the UFO costume, but I was expecting print like that with the constellation for...

I'd love to know how they thought the price on the Hoopty was reasonable. Like are they obligated to make X number of marvel sets per movie, did they know the movie would tank, and did this to claim a tax loss? How'd they even arrive at this turd ship design? I haven't seen it yet (I will, just...

Those clearance prices were nuts... the one day I'm not looking at CAG early instead of actually working... Consolation prize, I got somebody else's PAB order so now I have $30 of black technic fins of various sizes that I have no idea what to do with.
