Anyone ever build this set before?
The legs on the Lobster are very loose: the red part doesn't want to stay in the black leg parts

I loved LEGO's Aqua Raiders line. It ended too early. So did Power Miners and Space Police 3.

I remember that i collected more Bionicle toys than any other Lego theme.

I'm still annoyed at Lego for cancelling it.

So am I, but I love what LEGO has been doing with Hero Factory.

I used to collect Star Wars, Super Heroes, Bionicle, Power Miners, Space Police 3, and Spongebob Squarepants. Now I only collect Hero Factory. (Not this years line, but I never completed any of the others, so I'm buying what I missed secondhand.) I might start collect the TMNT sets...

#lego #starwars #starwarslego these are some of my favorite non-main characters in Star Wars! I just like the way their helmets look in their overall look by SacredKnightOfTomorrow, on Flickr
I love this set! I built it this morning. The gun reminds me of the gun at the top of the Kenner Death Star Station Playset from the 1970s. What I love more are the figures! The Helmets are spot-on cool! And I love these non-main characters

The helmets are spot on! #starwars #starwarslego #lego by SacredKnightOfTomorrow, on Flickr
It makes me want to build a death star battle station

How do you guys store your sets? I have 2 giant shelves for my Star wars, LOTR, and superhero sets. I don't display the Hero Factory sets as I build a lot of MOC's with them.

Big bookshelves, with every shelf being a big display. For example, I have two at the moment. The first one has three shelves plus the top that can fit stuff. The second has five shelves with room on top again. So you can accommodate what you want for each theme. I have 3 Lego Movie shelves (the Spaceship, Spaceship, SPACESHIP! takes up a whole shelf), one Super Heroes shelf, two just Marvel shelves, a TMNT shelf, and three LOTR/Hobbit shelves. Plus on my dresser (I keep all my Lego in my room it gets really crowded) I have my Isengard setup and my Ideas sets. Wow, long post.
Does anyone else have GOTG sets? I got the Milano this week and it's probably my favorite SH set. It even has the boombox with Star-Lords mixtape!

smitbro2 · 09-11-2014, 01:59 PM

Big lego Star Wars fan. I have several UCS sets (New Xwing, Bwing, Imperial Shuttle, R2D2, Obi-Wan starfighter) Very fun builds. I'm looking forward to the UCS slave one this fall.

*Zulithe* · 09-15-2014, 02:13 PM

new LEGO Hobbit sets (for the Battle of the Five Armies film) hitting Toys R Us Stores now. Not Pictured: The Smaug set, also hitting stores.

*snake* · 09-15-2014, 02:15 PM

No LOTR stuff I assume? It wasn't in the leaked pics.

*Zulithe* · 09-15-2014, 02:16 PM

No new LotR... but there are so many awesome things they could still release. There is hope LEGO will release more, for sure.

Unfortunately I think LOTR is doomed...sad because there were so many unused ideas for sets in that theme.
I have a link to a bunch of 2015 prelims that were leaked. Here:

YAY, alternate RR print coming to TRU... how do you get it? who knows. Some think it may be a GotG dvd/blu-ray pre-order promo.

This print was from SDCC, so happy we are getting it reissued.

I think they're just doing The Hobbit line, since the last LOTR movie was a few years now. I only got the Gandalf Arrives, and Frodo's stove polybag. Would've liked to get more, but the sets I would've liked were big and spensive.

*Zulithe* · 10-09-2014, 02:45 PM

Yup supposedly Hobbit/LotR is ending now after these last Battle of the Five Armies sets hit stores it should be the end.

I'm sad but it is still awesome when you think about it: We got TOLKIEN LEGO SETS! How amazing is that...

So yeah I own every single Tolkien set except Orthanc (I need to get it very soon!) and the late 2014 Battle of the Five armies sets (Smaug and a few other sets), which I will also be buying.

Not only are they very valuable to me on a personal level but they are worth HUGE dollars on the secondary market. Same as my Harry Potter lego sets.

*Zulithe* · 11-30-2014, 03:19 PM

Hot Dog Guy is going to be one of my favorite mini figs. I like the space dude as well! And that unicorn girl!
WE GOT A LEGO UNICORN COSTUME EVERYBODY! Yaaay!

Darthknuxward · 02-01-2015, 11:08 PM

This year is shaping up to be great! Chima, Ninjago, and Bionicle are all big story themes! Star Wars looks awesome(Azure Angel)! Minecraft and Jurassic World! Justice League sets! My wallet is sobbing just thinking about it!

*Autbot_Benz* · 02-05-2015, 11:46 PM

Lego Ideas as announced a Lego Wall E will be made and a Lego Doctor Who set choosen from the Cussoo section.

Rumor is The Doctor Who one will come with all the doctors the Tardis some villians and stuff like that.

Ulisa · 02-07-2015, 04:02 AM

Played with Lego as a kid but didn't get into the sets until I got married. My husband is a big Lego nut and he's gotten me hooked on it. One of our family friends runs a business distributing Lego which does not help the addiction

My husband is a lot better at building than I am but I'm learning. I guess before we married, he was part of a Lego club that makes these massive sets for conventions and whatnot. Says one of his favorite memories is actually meeting one of the Master Builders. I've seen a few of the displays his friends have made and they are awe-inspiring. I hope to be able to help them with one at some point.

As for me, so far, my husband has helped me in pretty much all the sets we've done but it makes for a fun project to do together. We did the large R2D2, the Ghostbusters' car, and am currently working on the Simpsons' House.

And he surprised me with a freelance project of his own a few weeks ago. made me Scrooge McDuck's money bin
