Thanks for the heads up. Got the case and all 5 coins. Sucks that you can only redeem one code at a time. Need to decide which 6 sets to buy lol
That makes me want to just eBay them when the price tanks. The Octan one was already as low as $20 shipped before the re-release. I still have the camera that I need to order something with on top of that.

Yea, I ended up just redeeming the Castle coin, and paid shipping for camera+valentine love birds set. I'm debating on the pirates coin still.
Already have Space, which is the one I care most about, since 90% of my Lego as a kid was Space.

Found some minor clearance at Walmart today. Creator 3-in-1 pirate ship 31109 was $75 and the $30 Vidiyo sets that are usually $24 at WM were $18. There were some shelf stickers for the SW Landspeeder ($18) Grievous Starfighter (can't remember $, still overpriced) and Ninjago Sub Speeder (maybe $24?). Hagrid's Hut 75947 was $29.
Nothing great and extremely YMMV since most stores are gutted.

Indiana Jones is supposedly coming back at the end of the year with at least 4 sets.
Another interesting rumour is Avatar sets. No, no the beloved one, the blue tall elf ones. The second movie is supposedly coming out in December.
LEGO is going to destroy Pick a Brick and Bricks and Pieces very soon. If you want anything order it now.

My local Michael's had LEGO Dots packs on clearance... sort of? They had a dozen pegs full of them and every peg was marked as clearance but when I self checked the price they were regular price. So maybe a future clearance that hasn't been pushed through in their system yet? Dunno.
Series 4 rang up at $5.99
Series 3 rang up at $3.99
Both contain the relative same amount of pieces.
Maybe something to keep an eye on? Thought I'd give you guys a heads up just in case.
Decent idea for a buck or buck-fifty. Anything more than that seems kinda high to me.

Ordered two more coins … knowing that each require a separate purchase and must be redeemed within 60 days, think I’m satisfied with owning 3.
Sooo … in other news, looks like Barracuda Bay really did retire, glad I got in on that … seems like a real sleeper set because many people don’t realize it has two builds and ships always seem to skyrocket in value.
Wish I could find the Ninjago Hydro Bounty for less than $129, but it seems like it’s actually getting hard to find. Not sure if that’s just a residual impact of the holidays or if it’s legitimately scarce. Target has it for MSRP so I’m not sure if I should bite or hope that somehow Walmart gets more in to clearance later.

My favorite part of post Christmas is the random returns. Found a Lego Movie 2 70848 Systar Party Crew for $9 at WM today. You can see where the wrapping paper tape ripped the box. According to Brickset, it retired in Dec. 2019. Some kids don't appreciate history.
The only consistent clearance at WM near me is Vidiyo, but I haven't seen the $5 boxes yet. People are finding Falcons for < $80 but the only decent SW clearance I could find was Mandalorian battle pack for $9.

I love that. I got a $13 LEGO Movie set in 2018-19 for $5.
And speaking on Walmart you can simply buy the GWP Tiger for $10.

I think it's the most perfect piece to represent LEGO in the 2020s.
Lego loves making models of junk that collects dusts. The set with the most pieces is a $250 map. A $200 globe comes out next month. A piano that doesn't actually play music is $350, a $230 NES and TV, a $200 typewriter.
The printing of the minifigures has gone down the toilet, the quality of colors per brick has gone down the toilet, sets are being delayed, canceled and recalled all the time because LEGO's quality has gone to shit.
So why not just make a toilet?
If LEGO doesn't approve the toilet they are losing out on making a shit ton of money.

2585 Pieces. $200. February 1st.
The set will include a sound track like the mosaics do of 4 hours of just 'He's Got The Whole World In His Hands' and "It's a Small World After All'. (Not really)
No stickers and some of the tiles glow in the dark for reasons no one understands.

I like the globe but I feel like it's pretty small for the price- gotta be a ton of internal bricks or something.
Good to know the cmf figures are out there. Gotta get a trash panda for my booty call- who is a trash panda.
