I don’t know what happened to it. I posted, then went to edit so I could add a picture, and now my post is gone. Haven’t felt like typing it out again. You can see the Craiglist post here: https://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/tag/d/pittsburgh-massive-lego-star-wars/7331996364.html So many questions though.

David Bacon replied to the topic The craigslist thread in the forum BUY / SELL / TRADE! 2 years, 11 months ago
This Craigslist Post caught my eye. An AFOL being forced to part with their collection?
But wait, “If they don’t sell for a fair value, I get to keep them.” I am confused, is this person selling or not?
“[Y]ou are welcome to come and buy what you want individually. Price for individual sets will be 15% off market value.” Sounds fair, but not…[Read more]

I will add captions and comments later but here is a link to see pictures from our day at Legoland New York on May 28th. https://photos.app.goo.gl/rcassHoSKKwVJs6B9
Summary: A bit underwhelming to be honest. Around half of the rides were open, and the rain at 4pm caused three of my kids to miss out on Driving School. The employees were all…[Read more]

My kids are actually watching Looney Tunes right now (HBO Max). “Father, look at this large mouse I found!”

So, I bought one of the Ice Cream Dream puzzles and while putting it together with my wife, my purist mindset was disappointed to see that the colors of the ice cream puzzle are added in post-processing. This is evident by how some of the different colors have the exact same parts arrayed in the same orientation. Plus it uses some rare colors…[Read more]

My local Walgreens has the recently released Lego 1000 piece puzzles for sale for $10/ea. The packaging looks a bit different, but the puzzle image and piece count is the same.

If anyone is interested in trying out for Lego Masters Season 2, filming begins late February and they need more builders. I got a message from a casting associate and she said you can get in touch with her if you are interested. Her name is Alexandra Schween, and you can reach her on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/alex.schween/ I do not…[Read more]

I found zero clearance aisle, and nothing of note in the Lego aisle. I did see a large display for a $40 Classic set with 1500 pieces in it. https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Classic-Bricks-Bricks-Plates-11717-Building-Toy-Great-Gift-for-Kids-Imaginative-Creative-Educational-Play-1504-Pieces/728689474

David Bacon replied to the topic Fall 2020 Online CCAC LEGO classes in the forum LUG discussions 3 years, 8 months ago
I actually taught a 1 hour virtual class on Stud.io with my daughter’s 2nd grade girl scout troop. Definitely not as much as I wanted to cover. I would make sure that you get familiar with the controls of Stud.io before teaching. Also, I would devote a good amount of time to making instructions in the program and teaching about that aspect.

I agree with Bugatti first because then you can see how Lego has improved their designs and appreciate those improvements.

I think these look interesting, but overpriced. I would rather use the plethora of studs I already have to make my own.

Great news. Are orders to be made by phone only, or is their a website to purchase through?
Are we allowed to post this on Social Media?
