UberJumper posted:Does anyone have any suggestions on selling a Lego collection? I have all the manuals, but not the boxes, and i have some of the sets such as Green Grocer/Cafe, and an absolute ton of Castle Fantasy (the one with orcs/dwarves). Is there a website where i can sell it that is not Ebay? Post on this thread before SA-Mart. Folks here are less likely to lowball you into annoyance like seems to be the standard rule with SA-Mart.

Big Mean Jerk posted:That was loving ridiculous. EDIT:Never mind, saw the referenced post. I bought the Sopworth last weekend and it was a really fun build. Now I just hope a Focker build comes out at some point. I'm also hopeful they start building planes from the 30's on at some point. I would love for a B-17 or a C-47 model to be released at some point.

I'd love a nice 1930s sea-plane/flying boat, like a Grumman Goose.

I Apologize for the extremely lovely tablet quality photos (i don't have any other type of camera anymore). But here is almost all of the instruction booklets, from my lego, Cafe Corner/Troll Ship/One other castle set is in another box that i couldn't find this afternoon. Will look for it. http://imgur.com/a/8lRbO Close up album shots: http://imgur.com/a/1XgdY 7078 x 7 7038 x 1 7048 x 6 7097 x 2 7009 x 1 7079 x 3 7094 x 1 7037 x 4 8402 x 1 7633 x 1 4994 x 1 8401 x 1 7685 x 1 7639 x 1 7638 x 1 4996 x 1 7633 x 1 10185 x 1 5618 x 1 When i get back in a week i will start sorting through the sets, and try and find the other drat box with the parts/instructions to Cafe Corner/Troll Ship/Dwarf Stuff/Skeleton ship (i am starting to wonder if my ex accidently took it when she moved out), and making sure everything is still there (i am 99% sure it is, but to be sure). I have no idea what this stuff is worth, but bricklink seems to be starkraving mad. Where the cheapest green grocer is 500 bucks? What the gently caress?

Yeah you're sitting on a bit of a treasure trove. I don't envy you sorting through the sets to verify completion and all that, but you'll get good money for some of your sets. Like said above, Green Grocer is about $500 used, Cafe Corner is like $700-$800 used. ireladd fucked around with this message at 07:51 on Feb 5, 2013 |

Yeah, you're sitting on a goldmine if you can take the time to piece everything out to the different parts. Those two modular city sets alone are worth 1000+ together, and you can easily put all of the troll stuff into a 'super troll megapack' on ebay and get mad moniez.

Maybe. It is a high demand set though-- however with Lego restocking their online store, a bunch of resellers are freaking out since it is no longer a quick flip and trying to dump their stock on ebay to try to sucker in people who didn't realize it restocked. Look there-- you can probably get it for only a few bucks more than retail.

There is a happy ending to the story and my son's birthday wishes will come true (and perhaps yours too fellow afolgoons): Amazon has restocked on the minecraft set! Get yours before it's plastered all over the deal/lego websites!

Even more photos and videos from the Nuremberg fair here: http://www.spieletest.at/bericht.php?ID=1174 Including close-ups and a couple of sets I haven't seen before, like a Creator single prop plane, a monster truck transport and Formula-1 transport.

 Asteroid Field definitely feels like they are pushing the concept a little far here and the Coruscant model looks rubbish.

Well hello Hoth and the snow speeder. I'm going to need a couple of those. I still think the lil Xwing is one of the best sets. Also the new Coast Guard sets and that single engine plane look pretty sweet. Whats everyone's take on that new helicopter/airplane nose piece?
