Holy starscreams that's expensive. Will be cheaper for you to fly here and pick them up during a sale.

Wow, this thread is full of epic barrels of awesome!! I'm pretty envious:o
I don't collect lego for the simple reason that once I started I probably wouldn't be able to stop, I have enough space issues just collecting Transformers, and I already have to budget out some things so I can afford others.
having said that, I bought Benny's Spaceship Spaceship SPACESHIP!! in the big W sale this week, and I'm going to try to talk my wife into building it with me, then we'll look at it for a few days before dismantling it and putting it away so we can have our coffee table back.
There is something about this set and the way it represents more than half of the lego I had (and still have in a bucket at my parents house) when I was a youngster.
Hopefully not, it's made even harder in that I have 3 friends who are all independently into collecting lego. two of them, their wife blames me for it, even though I warned them both before they started, and proceeded to tell them that if they call me at 2am on a lego fuelled eBay bender I will only tell them yes. :D. something to do with being a bad influence:confused:;)
the third friend has been collecting since before we met at uni and she's got so much that she's had a dedicated lego room for years, her husband can't blame me because it started before we met.
for the moment, I live vicariously through them.
My son is now just getting into LEGO........Holy crap!!!! I will NEVER complain about the prices of TF's again now that i know what LEGO sets go for! Talk about a toy for the rich only!!!!:eek::mad:
Got Benny's Spaceship, Spaceship, SPACESHIP! about two weeks ago. Still in the box. :)
Picked up Ecto-1 and the 4 TRU exclusive micro-Modulars today from TRU Cannington
Some Lego Minifigures to round out the week

Finally spotted Series 12 minifigures in QLD! Took advantage of TRU's 20% off for Friends and Family voucher and picked up a few of the little guys (and girl - there should be a genie in there somewhere).
From nothing... to this. Thanks for nothing Bricklink... :o

^ I honestly can't remember. They came from about 4 or 5 different sellers... I'm drawing a complete blank... Sorry Mate.
When shopping on Bricklink, you need to pay attention to a couple of different things such as a seller's minimum order amount, whether they're willing to ship to Australia & their postage costs. Then before you've even realised it, you've just bought 41 pieces from a seller in Austria... Please don't judge me... :o:D
Got a Chima Gorilla animal set from one of my year 2 students because "you look like a Gorilla". Always awesome when you get the quiet kids being a little cheeky by years end.
Do we need a "what's under the tree list" thread???
I've got.... 6 sets under there for me and the kids.... So for me :-P
& here is that particular haul...
http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...psbced0681.jpg

Now to find room to display them once I find time to build
Been a long time getting around to picking this up but today's the day:

Now to start bricklinking a custom colour corner cafe...
75078 Imperial Troop Transport! Took advantage of Myer's "buy one get second item half price" offer :)
Been picking up the Microfighters and only found out there is a series 2. Went out and got the AT-AT.
http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e1...ps3l2on4e5.jpg
Nabbed "bad cops car chase" and "double decker couch" from the Myer sale as they did not have any troop transports.
So I have ordered 2 of them as well as Ezras speeder bike, the ghost and a architecture trevi fountain from the interwebs.
Got to get some of the micro fighters and other battle packs too, Lego is really nailing Star Wars at the moment.
Finally at Myer with "buy one get second half price" offer:
- 31029 Creator Cargo Heli
- 31030 Creator Go Cart
- 70818 Double-Decker Couch (x2, for the offer)
Myer was out of the troop transport too. Must be popular with troop builders during sales. Don't mind the new helmet design. Never watched 'Rebels' so looks like ROTJ style to me.
Got my dauther the Frozen sparkling tower and just got myself a hotdog man mini fig :rolleyes:
How are you finding the set? I was going to get this one as a present for mum, but got her the Parisian restaurant instead. It's so detailed front and rear and internally. Lots going on with it.
Creator street here is now the emporium, Parisian, movie theatre and town hall. :)
Splurged and got these (at full price)

They look great. But that truck is gonna be expensive!
Honestly it was good build, few oh cool moments, but I much prefer the restaurant, and yeah there's xetail in every room and even a basement. The guy painting the wall is a bit meh, but still cool how they did some things like bay window (though gappy), and the toilet.
Only have the restaurant and pet shop at the moment, i'd have to make room to put more, and if i did it'd be bricklinking cafe corner (with custom colour walls for bottom floor and awning) and an actual interior (inspired by cafe/bike shop) and the green grocer. But then I'd want the detectives office or something and something else for the corner on the other end so ... $$$ sigh, just not a fan of the cinema or emporium due to lack of detail in the latter, and well, 6 seat cinema...
After binge watching all of Star Wars Rebels, I now have the Ghost, Ezras speeder bike and some clone transporters waiting to be built. Also ordered 2elsas ice palaces to be put away for a few years until their new owners are old enough to build them.
