First off, I think this is the most elaborate contest I've ever participated in, so congratulations for that :P Fear cuts deeper than swords. I hope some of my items are awesome enough for some extra credit ;) Also I wasn't sure if duplicates are allowed. I will revise if necessary.

1.) Something grey and it's been on my wishlist.

2.) Rain, well not technically rain, she is a water bender :P Previously on my wishlist.

3.) Unusual, I think this is something I would use like twice a year. With ice cream or cereal.

4.) Someone else My sister and I want to start playing tabletop games. Previously on my wishlist.

5.) "Book" I took a little bit of liberty with this one because it's a graphic novel. But it's Batman, so...(Previously on my wishlist).

6.) Under a dollar.

7.) Cats There's a catbus in it, which is pretty much the best part of the movie. Previously on my wishlist.

8.) Beautiful As a Star Wars fan having the original trilogy on Blu Ray would be beautiful to me. I love high definition movies, especially ones that are aesthetically pleasing. Previously on my wishlist.

9.) Movie As a Browncoat, I would encourage anyone who has a remote interest in Sci-Fi to give this a chance. Previously on my wishlist.

10.) Zombie tool I don't think this needs explanation.

11.) (Updated) Useful for future. I have a desire to create meaningful video games. Previously on wish list.

12.) Add on I actually had this on my wishlist but removed it because add-on items are lame.

13.) Most expensive As previously stated, I want to be a game developer/designer so not only would it be fun to play with, I could create with it too. Previously on list.

14.) Bigger than breadbox Total in the box it is bigger than a breadbox. Previously on wishlist.

15.) Bigger than a golf ball It's a large book. Previously on wishlist.

16.) Smells good As a guy...I enjoy the scent of lavender.

17.) Safe for children toy I don't think this needs any introduction of why it's awesome.

18.) Back to school drawing helps keep me sane. Previously on my list.

19.) Current obsession I'm a noob to tabletop games. But have been wanting to get into it obsessively within the past month or so. And this also takes my love of A Song of Ice and Fire into the mix. Previously on list.

20.) [Amazing] (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-XBR-65X900A-65-Inch-120Hz-Ultra/dp/B00BSREQI6/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1376281533&sr=8-4&keywords=4k+tv) I've seen one of these in person at the mall and it literally made me stop walking the resolution was so incredible. I know it's as expensive as dicks...but man...when these are affordable...

Bonus 2) Made in Oregon I would have put Tillamook Ice Cream, since it's pretty awesome...but alas not on Amazon.

Edit: Changed an item because I saw it won't count because it's a duplicate.

The Joker Steam Roller does come with the Joker. However, the build of the actual steamroller was a little dull. Batman's plane is a good build in that set.

The Batboat Harbor Pursuit is a decent set, but way too overpriced on Amazon. Buy it on Lego's own site if you are going that route.

Gorilla Grodd goes Bananas could be a good choice if he likes mech suits.

Green Lantern vs. Sinestro is a nice little set if he has any interest in the Green Lantern. Batman's space suit in this set will be far different than any one he would already have.

I have not built Black Manta Deep Sea Strike yet, so I cannot comment on it.

Darkseid Invasion is just out of your price range, doesn't include Batman, but does have many other Justice League members. The Amazon price is also a good deal.

Man-Bat Attack is a nice little set if you can still get it for around the $20 MSRP.

The Penguin Face Off would make a good stocking stuffer.

That's just about everything that hasn't been retired and has the price marked up due to limited availability.

For $150 I would get one of the modular buildings. My favorite currently available one is the Grand Emporium (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Grand-Emporium-10211) but the Fire Brigade (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Fire-Brigade-10197) is the oldest one so it might be a good idea to pick one up before it is discontinued.

If you're into Star Wars the Ultimate Collectors Series B-Wing is on sale right now for about $150 on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Dailego-B-Wing-Fighter-10227/dp/B009OJGLR4/ref=sr_1_10?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1371520022&sr=1-10&keywords=lego)

Another one of my favorites is the Kingdoms Joust set (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Kingdoms-Joust-10223). It goes really well with the Medieval Market Village which is unfortunately discontinued but you can still get it for about $150. (http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Castle-Medieval-Market-Village/dp/B001USHRCK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371520318&sr=8-1&keywords=medieval+market+village) $150 is almost twice the original MSRP but it is still a good value as you get around 1600 pieces.

If you are into architecture you might want to consider one of the larger Architecture sets such as Imperial Hotel (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Imperial-Hotel-21017) or Fallingwater (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Fallingwater-21005). I don't have either one of these but I do have the Robie House (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Robie-House-21010) which was a thoroughly enjoyable build.

There are also some fun train sets for less than $150 like the Horizon Express (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Horizon-Express-10233) and the Passenger Train (http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Passenger-Train-7938). The Horizon Express is a very detailed model but it has no track or train motors. The Passenger Train is a much simpler build but it has track and a motor so it is more like a traditional model train set. Of course you can get a motor and track for the horizon express but you will have to buy those separately.

Hope this helps.

1. What would be really super freaking awesome is if I was able to go to New York with my SO and either bring the dogs with or find accomadation for them that wouldn't destroy my already dwindled financials. I just really really really wanna see my grandma. It's been way too long and neither of us are really good with picking up the phone and calling. I think I get that from her directly. We joke about it every so often. Anyway, yeah, I miss her a bunch. Plus, there is also my (practically) sister and her family that I also love seeing. But yeah, New York means money or leaving the SO with loads of responsibility which she is not too keen on. Wow, this was much longer than I meant it to be. Almost forgot this was a contest post, woops.
   
   
2. I never added any sets cause they get so pricey. Especially the Star Wars one! And then if you want some of the older ones that too gets pricey because of availabilty! Ya can't win! But why not, added a few of them, not too sure which would be better this Batman and Nightwing set, cause Nightwing or the simpler Wizard set cause yay magic.
   
   
3. Ah, I see. You're using the question marks as a metaphor for what the true meaning of life is in this ever expanding universe. That's real deep man.
   
   
4. I'm part of a team!
   
   
5. Cool, I have done that a few times.
   
   Hey, so if you don't mind my asking, what had/has you bummed? Also, sorry for making this post so long, didn't think I'd just keep typing. I'll stop now, I swear.
   
   Oh, no, wait. Thanks for the contest!

Put simply, retail arbitrage is buying stuff for $(low price) at a brick-and-mortar store (Wal-Mart, Target, etc.) and then shipping it to Amazon for FBA to sell for $(higher price).

For example, say you go to Random Store and find this LEGO set for the ridiculously low price of $5. You go on Amazon and find out "Holy Crap! The cheapest price available through Amazon is $44.44! That's amazing!" So then you'll want to scroll down the page and underneath the "Product Details" heading you'll see that this set has "#203 in Toys & Games" and "#31 in Toys & Games > Building & Construction Toys > Building Sets" next to the line "Amazon Best Seller Rank." This means that only 202 toys in the entire "Toys and Games" department are selling better than this set, and only 30 building sets are selling better. That's a great buy!

On the other hand, you go to another section of Random Store and find this CD being sold for $40. You go on Amazon and see that the other copies available are used and available for $48.98. But scroll down farther and you'll see that the ranking for this CD is "#959,651 in Music." This CD is both way too expensive and not nearly enough in demand to justify purchasing.

That's my understanding of it, anyway, in a nutshell. Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll do my best. :)

1. Having more money, hahaha. But I'm working on that! Otherwise my life is pretty awesome already. :)
   
2. Please please please please!
   
3. !!!!!!
   
4. I'm part of a team!
   
5. Done. :)

Any kind of Lego makes everything awesome :) My nephew graduated from UCSB a few weeks ago and the speaker used Lego to show how they work better together than apart and stuff...my whole family was laughing.

The Delorean is under $30! http://amzn.com/B00DQC2FPM

I'm part of a team!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

Firstly, welcome back to LEGO! Second, I'm sure that kid enjoyed your gift a lot.

As for your $50. I would suggest creator. Everyone of those sets comes with three different builds and instructions for all of them. The smaller sets at a range of $20 have a fourth build available online. I have and loved the sets linked below, all of which have multiple build options and look great. For the future, I'll suggest buying sets in the $30 range if you want the most for your money. I noticed that no matter what theme you buy, the $30 sets give you much more than what you think you should get for the money.

1. Right now to what would be awesome would be to finish this project for work. Stuck trying to figure it all out. I'll get it eventually, but will just take some time.
   
   
2. This Delorean would be awesome. There are multiple builds for it so would be cool to have all of them.
   
   
3. Thank you /u/flyingfresian for informing me of this contest.
   
   
4. I'm part of a team!
   
   
5. This I have done for sure.

I'm a huge fan of Lego but Lepin is actually great for sets that Lego has discontinued. For instance, the Lego Super Star Destroyer was discontinued but you can still find sets from private sellers for over $1000. Lepin has a near perfect knockoff for a hundred bucks. Spend a little time reprinting the STAR WNRS stickers and nobody knows the difference, with a 90% discount. I always buy from Lego when I can, but for something like this I don't mind buying the knockoff.

> basic affordable set with lots of pieces

Not with Lego, although you can find some good collections on ebay.

If I needed lots of pieces, I would get one of these: http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Ultimate-Building-Set-Pieces/dp/B000NO9GT4 or http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Bricks-More-Brick-4626/dp/B005VPRDBS/ (or anything from the "bricks & more" line http://creative.lego.com/en-us/products/10681.aspx )...

Although be sure to do the legwork, some of these go on sale for exorbitant prices. That first one shouldn't be $70 even in a million years.

If you are looking to get sets 'for adults', there is a great collection of them here: http://brickset.com/sets/list-9150 and that whole site has a lot more.

Personally, anything 'cuusoo' is going to be awesome. They are like the reddit of lego set creation: http://lego.cuusoo.com/

Yep, my favorite was the robin hood castle I got for christmas, it had the base piece that resulted in some pretty awesome toddler-era architecture.

I looked at the kits nowadays and it looks like the very specific pieces remove a lot of the creativity:
Modern lego set

im an engineer and as a kid i loved toys that allowed me to use my imagination and that i could use for a long time because they were changable. many of my friends who went on to do robotics etc started with legos and then lego mindstorms (or similar) -- it started as a game, freeform. so i recommend this for Adela.

for Isla, she sounds like she has a lot energy so i thought this dress-up outfit would work for her for actual lessons and just for fun.

Dude, have fun training!
This would be awesome to have. Apparently I'm a kid at heart.

Thanks for the contest.

I don't want to win the movie (good luck to everyone else!) but had to comment in here. As a girl who grew up with lego's AND loves The Simpsons I would love to own this, this and every other piece someday!

Minecraft Legos

No prize plz. Gift /u/Akeleie if I win.

LOVE YOU! <3 :D

We really like the Lego Juniors sets. They have a big chassis that the cars are built on so it gives an easier 'base' for the kids to start building with. There's a [wrecking ball] (http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Juniors-6061876-10667-Construction/dp/B00IANUDPQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1427544481&sr=1-1&keywords=lego+juniors) and a digger.

There's also a duplo construction set that might be interesting enough to him, it's has a cool swinging piece and a bulldozer and dump trucks. I thought the 'car' set was really neat too because there were so many little chassis and accessories to put on top. I also found out from husband recently that tiny Lego can actually fit on top of the Duplo so he could possibly built a simple car or wall and then you put the 'cool' arm or whatever on top of whatever he built and let him play with it. I think you just need to model the construction and destruction of simpler pieces to him.

According to Brickset.com, last availability in the US was october and november for the UK/EU stores. That's still pretty recent.

Amazon definitely still has stock, 157 listed from 35 USD and up.

http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-6024464-Creator-31010-Treehouse/dp/B00C9X591Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452262204&sr=8-1&keywords=31010

If you want one, it's probably good to pick one up now. You might just find discounts elsewhere if you Google around a bit. I actually bought two 31025 sets with a nice discount this morning, those are retired as well here in the Netherlands.

I think your daughter needs this

On the same page, I would love this

Thanks for the awesome contest!

When I was a young thing, a newly minted freshman in high school, I acquired a nickname... Luscious. It was actually from someone seeing the way I licked an ice cream cone and a joke, but 99% of the school population didn't believe that... So I acquired a... reputation

Fast Forward to Christmas of that same year. A thin, slightly cross eyed boy approached me and very clumsily asked if I would go out with him. No, thank you, I said. Over a week he more desperately pursued me until finally I asked him" Why? I don't even think you like me, what is this about?"

Evidently he had already lied and told his buddies that we had gone out on a couple dates ( since they didn't know me, but instead knew OF me ) and that wild sexual hijinks ensued.

So, a la 80s movie, I told him that for a certain amount of money I would take care of his problem. I wrote him a series of notes, recounting in detail our sordid nights. Involving every form of sexual escapade my 15 year old mind could imagine, including one particularly involved thank you for his skills with a large movie theatre pickle.

I put the notes in his books and wallet and asked a friend of his in the hallway to deliver one for me. He became a kind of legend around school, and I got quite a bit of Christmas shopping done.... ;)

link for legos!

I've considered investing in Lego sets. My son has been asking for some that are no longer produced for Christmas...and the prices they are going for on eBay make Masterpiece Transformers look like free McDonalds toys in comparison. However, if I became a multi-millionaire overnight, I'd probably buy at least a few of these bad boys. I already bought this one and spent a day putting it together and it was a lot of fun and the finished product is pretty big compared to most Lego sets. I can't imagine how big the Super Star Destroyer must be.

So while looking up the weight to check the cost of shipping I found it on Amazon for $177, which works out around the same price they sold it here for... Can't believe it was only $119 originally! https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Ideas-Apollo-Saturn-Building/dp/B01MUANC80
But yeah, no rush really. If they can have overstock here then they can catch up on restocking somewhere else faster too.

Oh, thank you! I do, that would be sweet! If you're sure :)

I only work in black. And sometimes very very dark grey.

this looks cool

I love that movie! I went to watch it with my 2 friends and got kinda mad because they were on their phones and being loud the whole time. They made fun of me for liking it and said it was a "stupid kid's movie." They knew that from the beginning, so they shouldn't have come! Well, anyways, thanks for the contest!

fear cuts deeper than words

Edit #1 - Replaced #1 #2, #9, #13, #15, edited some text, added bonuses

Okay, so a lot of my items are similar, or are kind of "flexing" the rules, but I will leave official rulings up to you. Here goes!

1. Something Grey - Strip of magnesium - This actually just got gifted to me. This coal trash can is silver, which is basically grey :D
   
   2)Something reminiscent of rain - Zen Garden - Flexing the rules. It's only related because it's a garden. An umbrella!! I don't have one of these, and I have no idea why.
   
   
2. Food related - Pineapple corer/slicer
   
   
3. On wishlist not for me (this is for my fiancee) - Apple Cider k-cups
   
   
4. A book you should read - Everyone should have the Joy of Cooking
   
   6)Item less than a dollar - MP3
   
   
5. Something related to cats - This is related because of that scene in "Christmas Vacation" where the cat gets electrocuted
   
   
6. [Beautiful but not useful - Lego adoption of Brandenburg Gate](
   http://www.amazon.com/LEGO%C2%AE-Architecture-Brandenburg-Gate-21011/dp/B0050R0V3O/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=E9RD1GO4V1KF&coliid=I22USNN7FC4LVL)
   
   
7. Movie everyone should see once - Not on wishlist - Harlan County, USA. This documentary is nearly perfect in every sense of the word. This movie is so powerful, and so real, it's just unbelievable. One of my favorites. I always suggest it when someone asks "what documentary should I see?"
   
   
8. Something useful when Zombies attack - Kinect Your Shape Fitness Evolved - You need to be able to Outwit, Outrun, and Outlast.
   
   
9. Profound impact on life - Guitar. I really want to learn how to play, and my dad was going to teach me, but he passed before he was able to. It would mean a lot to share that passion with him even though he's already moved on
   
   
10. Add-On Item - Cat6 cable!!!
    
    
11. Most expensive item -It's actually the guitar, so I went with the 2nd most expensive which is a Logitech G19 keyboard Nope. It's actually this amp.
    
    
12. Bigger than a bread box - Mizuno backpack
    
    
13. Smaller than a golf ball - Not sure if a k-cup would count, but I threw it in there. If it doesn't count, I will find something else It doesn't. Here's some ship and anchor cufflinks I really want for my wedding :)
    
    
14. Something that smells wonderful - Kind of cheating, but a different k-cup. Donut shop coffee is the BEST. Changed to a different beverage. I have a horrible addiction to this stuff, and it smells wonderful (to me)
    
    
15. SFW Toy - Legos are a toy!! :D
    
    
16. Helpful going back to school - I listed the Zen Garden again because it's helpful to have something peaceful when going back to school
    
    
17. Something related to your current obsession - I am OBSESSED with Lorde. I have stated this many times over the last week.
    
    
18. Something amazing/awe inspiring - SERIOUSLY. LOOK AT THIS FUCKING CHAIR. THIS MOTHERFUCKER RIGHT HERE? THIS SHIT FOLDS UP SO YOU CAN CARRY IT. NOT GOOD ENOUGH? SHIT, SON. THIS BITCH HAS TWO ARMRESTS FOR YOUR LAZY ASS. STILL BITCHING? GUESS WHAT DICKLIPS, THIS BITCH HAS TWO CAN HOLDERS AND A FUCKING COOLER. YOU DON'T EVEN NEED TO GET YOUR BITCH ASS UP TO GET A DRINK, BAM, YOU ALREADY GOT ONE. IT EVEN HAS A POUCH TO HOLD YOUR OTHER SHIT, IF ALL OF THIS ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH. YOU NEED TO HAVE THIS CHAIR.
    
    
    BONUS #1 - I looked through your reddit history (not very hard, but I did look), and came up empty, so I'll just post something later that might fit.
    
    BONUS #2 - These blankets are made in Oregon, and look SUPER cool. Not on my WL (I have more than enough blankets), but I really like them.
    
    
    I may attempt the bonuses tomorrow, we will see. This is definitely a placeholder until rulings on some items are made. Fix'd :D

Congrats on the little one!! :)

Here's something to add- Amazon has the Cyberman Fun Pack for $6.06 http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Cyberman-Pack-Not-Machine-Specific/dp/B010R2RHGU

Yes! I love Lego! Like these Star Wars ones. Ole Kirk Christiansen!

My SO would love this Lego Stars Wars X-wing Starfighter because he loves Legos and Star wars :)

I'm in love.

I have both the 9493 and the 8088 and I preferred the 9493. I thought the build was more interesting including the mechanism to make the wings open and close. And I love the minifigs in the orange jumpsuits from the original trilogy and you get Jek Porkins.

Everything would be awesome right now if I had a glass of wine and some popcorn and my kid would stay in bed. So awesome.

Link to Batman legos.

I'm part of a team!

It's mostly stuff for my daughter, like this Lego kit (though the Simpson's House is highest on the WANT list), as it's her birthday next month. She wants chapter books and Lego for her birthday, so I'll be looking around the shops here soon.

For me, it's a new harddrive as my I'm running out of room. I'm pretty sure that's the one I need.

Well it really depends on what you want so here's some random stuff.

• Volrath Stainless Steel Mixing bowls - Unless you are bashing them with a hammer, I have no idea how these could wear out.
  
  
• MTM 50 Round Flip-Top Rifle Ammo Box WSSM, 500 S&W The hinges on these things are great and have a 25 year warranty. They are also the perfect case for AA batteries.
  
  
• Pretty much any safety razor that costs more than $3.
  
  
• Lego
  
  
• IdeaWorks Waterfall Soap Saver It's this really cool soap dish that drains the water off it into the sink.
  
  
• J.K. Adams French Rolling Pin - Bonus for being Made in Vermont!
  
  
• Victorinox 12" Slicer - This knife gets more use in my kitchen than any but my Chef's knife.

My son is getting a big bucket of LEGOs for Christmas: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005VPRDBS/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3A75OQHMPSD3E&coliid=I37OLSCHT22HUG or http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Ultimate-Building-Set-Pieces/dp/B000NO9GT4/ref=pd_sim_t_6

It's going to be a long lasting toy that helps him learn and be creative, and most importantly they aren't exhaustible like art supplies are.

As someone who grew up poor with two brothers, I can definitely say that Christmas can be done better and more cheaply with one great group gift, than with a bunch of smaller gifts for each child. Also, Goodwill tends to have $1 toys and presents right around the holidays. It's not new, but IMO parents do their children a disservice by teaching them to expect new things.

This might get buried in the comments, But I would just like to point out that there are two versions of each model; a more realistic expensive one, and a more play-set like one that includes mini-figures.

• The realistic Star Destroyer (the one shown in the video) is actually close to $2000.
  
  
• The Death Star, however is the play set one with the mini figures so it's only $400.
  
  
• There is also a play version of the Star Destroyer for $400
  
  
• And a model version of the Death Star for $1200.
  
  Edit: LEGO is expensive, I've been playing with LEGO play sets since I was about 4. There is a lot of work that goes into these toys and it's kind of sad that they seem to be dying compared to the video game generation (not that I'm against video games, I love video games, I just also like LEGO a whole lot.)
  
  
  Edit 2: My mistake, this is the one in the video which is $400.
  
  fuck.

Sam I Am loves minifigs!!

And happy birthday to Sam!

Yea, it is crazy how much they cost. I really wanted the Super Star Destroyer as it is over 4 feet long and as such, HUGE. But, I didn't have the money then to shell out like $500. Now it is more expensive and well, I don't have the time as much. Also, I want to clarify I am not really a Star Wars guy, I just like lego sets that are really big.

ive always loved legos, one of the best toys in my opinion Ole Kirk Christiansen

Fantastic idea!!! I hope you caused many gifts to be sent today!

I got them this lego box

1. Right now, a final decision from the Coast Guard. Ideally, I would love to be retained and continue my career.
   
   
2. Star Wars Legos!!!!!
   
   
3. Profit
   
   
4. I'm part of a team!
   
   
5. Done and Done!

That's a decent price. This bulk tub of parts http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Ultimate-Building-Set-Pieces/dp/B000NO9GT4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333330522&sr=8-1 is 2.4 pounds, 405 pieces, and $30. Say the tub is 0.4 pounds, that's $15 per pound of lego.

That said, it's Craigslist - offer $100. :-) Good luck! Post pics if you get it.

Thanks for the contest. I just finished my first one earlier this week. It's great.

Heres the cheapest item on my list and the item I really want.

This is pretty awesome.

I always enjoy these toys with a friend. ;)

Looks like the LEGO Saturn V set.

LEGO 21103 The DeLorean Time Machine Building Set by LEGO http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DQC2FPM/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_JeO7tb18BPH5R

1. These sunglasses, because after too much, you're gonna need them the next morning.
   
   
2. This relates, because after I use it, I'll need the riddle item to get rid of the ashes left.
   
   
3. What goes better than a man with the riddle item? If he has a well groomed beard, too.
   
   
4. This is the fastest starfighter in the Rebel fleet, therefore it can really book it.
   
   
5. It can also be called a foot locker, and these go on your feet. Ta-da!
   
   Bonus: This shirt relates, because Rockets blast off from Cape Canaveral. :D

A little higher than budget but this one looks really cool

http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Wars-Fury-class-Interceptor/dp/B007Q0OV4I/

Also the new Skiff has nice minifigs and is under budget and you could get a Tie Fighter and be within your price range

A fun add-on!

Thanks for the contest!

I think I like the minecraft lego thing on your wl the most. Right now, this hat is probably the thing I favor the most on my wl. We're both gamers, so I'd say we share tests, though I don't own a console anymore. I had to sell it last month to make ends meet.

You know how with Lego some kids carefully follow the instructions in the booklet and others just use their imaginations and build random stuff?

Well, some grew up as adults who can easily build Ikea furniture, but that's not the point. The point is that there isn't one specific way to play with toys. Some will use dolls as action figures while others will sit Batman, a T-rex and a car around for a cup of tea.

As for your brother, he'll grow up to become the target demographic for this and than (NB : don't buy from the second link, it was originally sold for "only" $300 or so.)

I don't have parenting advice as I'm not a parent and not an example to follow as a child, but maybe try to work on his strengths rather than his weaknesses (ie. teach him how to read and write rather than try to force him to speak.) Read him books while showing the text and images maybe?

I love playing legos with my kids.

This book would be cool and its $20.


My kids need more legos.

Edit forgot to say Ole Kirk Christiansen

Just placed an order with my Prime account for this: http://amzn.com/B00IANUDPQ

Since I chose the gift wrapping option with a letter, I hope it gets to him by his birthday on Friday!

I have been trying to find this Lego but I haven't been able to find them.

Patrick Kane is our hero.

Here is an extreme example: http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Super-Destroyer-10221/dp/B0050R0YB8?

This set retired this past June, with a retail price of $399. Six months later the price has almost doubled on Amazon(sales rank 22,000 so these things are selling at that price), with sold listings on ebay between $5-700.

The popular brands are usually a safe investment if you can wait months for a return. Star Wars, Spongebob, Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, etc. Even better if it's a popular part of those brands(Hogwarts castle, Death Star).

Lego even keeps a list of items they plan on retiring soon here: http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Retiring-Soon

This Lego set is on my boys' wishlist.

Ole Kirk Christiansen

Pretty cool little set. Need to figure out how to mount it on my wall.

1. It would be awesome if everyone started watching my YouTube Channels, and I made so much money I could quit working at shity jobs I hate, and be YouTube famous instead....
   
   
2. Would really love the Back to the Future Delorean, but since I'll be the 4th person picking this I'll also pick this Monster Truck Big Rig for originality!
   
   
3. ?????
   
4. I'm part of a team!
   
   
5. Gifted a few times.
   
   
6. I think I know the secret... PMing you now...

Well I went on Amazon to go find a bunch of legos to buy, and I saw this, this, and this.

1. I never knew legos went for that much...
   
   
2. I have all three of those from when I was little, one of which I never even opened cause I lost interest. How much did my parents spend on legos?

I would spend countless hours building Star Wars legos and be happy as a clam about it: 1 and 2.

Turn that frown Upsidedown, sweetheart.

I'm tempted to buy a whole bunch of them so I can have an army of Cybermen and Daleks because they're super cheap on Amazon right now!

I already bought a second Fun Pack because the price went down so far before release...

> 1100 dollar gpu

Yes, just like lego.

This 2,169 sq. ft. house made of lego took 10,079,829 pieces. Which comes to 4,647 pieces per square foot.

Per Wikipedia the Chang-Gu World Trade Center is 896,700 sq. ft..

So that would require 4,166,964,900 lego, not accounting for any structural differences between building a skyscraper and a 2 story house.

You can get 790 pieces of lego on [amazon](LEGO Classic Large Creative Brick Box 10698 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NHQF6MG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_Y5ktybPNSBE3D) for 46.99.

So roughly $247,855,291 in materials alone to build a building that size out of lego. I wouldn't call that being cheap.

(Please feel free to check my math, I have a degree in history math is not my forte.)

Best price: http://charts.camelcamelcamel.com/us/B00NHQFA1I/amazon.png?force=1&zero=0&w=725&h=440&desired=false&legend=1&ilt=1&tp=all&fo=0&lang=en

All of the LEGO stores in the Houston area are roughly the same size, I'm afraid. If you're looking for particular parts, you could use a site like Bricklink, but it's not exactly an easy site to navigate. You could also buy something like this from Amazon--I can't recall seeing them in the Woodlands or Galleria stores but I also wasn't looking for them, so you may want to call and check.

I got it for $60, amazon is the cheapest and you can sometimes get free shipping. Ends up being $57.

Edit: http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Wars-X-Wing-Starfighter/dp/B005VPRG3S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334112784&sr=8-1

They’ve always carried some version of the basic brick box. Here’s one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00NHQFA1I/ref=mp_s_a_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1520371787&sr=8-1-fkmr1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=lego+basic+deluxe


That’s about 7c per piece at MSRP, which is significantly less than the average 10c per piece in non licensed theme sets and ~12-14c in licensed sets.


They’re just not heavily advertised because they simply don’t sell that well. Consumers like the themes and licenses and more unique parts. And that’s not to say you can’t just build whatever you want out of the pieces in a themed set - people do that all of the time just to chase down more unique elements.

That simply isnt true, there are heaps of sets of generic peices.

Heres one http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Bricks-10662-Creative-Bucket/dp/B00AWBLS80/ref=dp_ob_title_toy

And this one here http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Bricks-More-Brick-4626/dp/B005VPRDBS/ref=sr_1_638?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1416663306&sr=1-638

As well as a huge selection of pre designed sets made entirely of generic peices. Now granted the selection is not huge but people are happier buying the designed sets and mixing and matching those bricks, and besides, you can always just buy a few sets and throw away the boxes/instructions if you're that concerned about your childs lack of imagination.

Yikes that was fast! Still good on Amazon for now. I was able to PM at Target.

hmm checks Ooryl's username, yep gotta be some Star Wars on Ooryl's wishlist. Over various moves over the years, Ooryl has lost Tales from Mos Eisley Cantina and Cloak of Deception Hardcover from this bookshelf full of books.

Ooryl also has on Ooryl's list the Old Republic Republic Striker-class Starfighter Lego Set to go with the Sith Fury Interceptor that Ooryl already owns.

Someday Ooryl really hopes to own the Lego Super Star Destroyer but it is way too expensive for Qrygg to ever imagine receiving it as a gift, even from Qrygg's family.

Does this seem like something they would enjoy?

They aren't fake. This happens with the Lego classic boxes. LEGO Classic Medium Creative Brick Box 10696 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NHQFA1I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_49UFAbC64QN9E

My personal recommendation would the the UCS Tumbler, if he's into cars.

Otherwise, LEGO makes some good looking starter kits for kids

I used to get the magazine from Lego and was part of the club. I've wanted this set since it first was in that mag. Back when they made it it was only almost 300. Now look at it. This is probably one that I will always keep wanting but never get to have. This is like my lego crush! I also wanted the imperial star destroyer version too. I may have these two mixed up even but look how pretty that is. drools

Lego Makes Creative Brick boxes that run 30-60$ USD

Medium Size - $30- 484 pieces

Large size - $60 - 790 pieces

ALSO, hotwheels has a car that will take lego minifigs: LetsGO

You think that's cool?

Try this

1.2m long super star destroyer.

Or you could get the larger Death Star.

1. Having LEGO at my new place would be awesome. I had to leave all of my LEGOs at my parents when I first moved out, and really regret that decision.
   
   
2. Yay LEGO!
   
   
3. !!!!!!!!!
   
   
4. I'm part of a team!
   
   
5. Okies!

LEGO? LEGO? THIS IS A PLACEHOLDER COMMENT. I WILL BE RIGHT BACK AFTER I NARROW DOWN A SET CHOICE.

CAUSE FUCK YES, LEGO.

Oh, and raffle phrase "Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen"!

ETA: This Creator set would be great! It's hard to narrow them down cause there are so many great ones. and sadly this one is too much.

The last thing I built? Was a little mini AT-ST that came in a set that /u/Qu1nlan got me!

Amazon has a few Fun Packs at low prices.

~$5 Doc Brown

~$6 Cyberman

~$7 Sensei Wu

https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Classic-Large-Creative-Brick/dp/B00NHQF6MG

*Edit, better set
https://www.amazon.com/10697-Building-Large-Creator-Pieces/dp/B00XJ5C4FW

$750 on Amazon. Manufacturer recommends it for ages 16-20!
http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Super-Destroyer-10221/dp/B0050R0YB8/ref=sr_1_1/191-0159503-7816776?ie=UTF8&qid=1411710891&sr=8-1&keywords=lego+superstar+destroyer

I'm in the process of putting together one of these! Really cool.

They aren't bad ... this is $50 for 800 pieces. Now, 800 pieces sounds like a lot, but if you have this box in front of you it's not all that much (lots of 1x1 and other tiny pieces). It's not bad, like I said, but for $50 it's just a bucket of plastic made with manufacturing technology that's been in place for decades. The prices are inflated due to brand recognition only. Then the kits have even more inflated prices due to double brand recognition (e.g., LEGO + Star Wars!)

thats why i would rather buy the creator packs like this one then my kiddos can make whatever they want

You've always been able to buy both designed sets and tubs of LEGO for building whatever you want.

e.g. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000NO9GT4

Some people like using their imagination, some people prefer following instructions.

They have a marvel helicarrier Lego that is $380! And that's not even getting into the adult collectors level legos

https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Super-Destroyer-Discontinued-manufacturer/dp/B0050R0YB8

This is what I ask Santa for. (he said it won't fit in the sleigh)

This is amazing.

Just look at that fucker!

Here's a more affordable Imperial Destroyer

Sith Super Star Destroyer

It just saddens me that I'll never have enough disposable income to be able to afford these things.

Huge sale over at amazon right now. A whopping 4 cents!

FYI the Cyberman pre-order is on sale at Amazon.

I recommend this one... relatively cheap for lego (6c a piece)

Saturn V

I already have it... it is sitting above my TV where the Jets are losing...

Lego offers actual sets of the most iconic DC buildings:

• https://shop.lego.com/en-US/United-States-Capitol-Building-21030
  
• https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Architecture-Lincoln-Memorial-Model/dp/B00NHQHK3O
  
• https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Architecture-White-House-21006/dp/B003U4A12U
  
  The Washington Monument seems like an impossible task given the angles, so I moved down the line to the Jefferson and then the Kennedy Center.

I thought the same thing about the LEGO Simpsons minifigs when that set came out (except Maggie, thank goodness).

Part 8 be like: https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Architecture-White-House-21006/dp/B003U4A12U

If it's really that difficult to find then your best bet is Amazon.com

Or else contact Lego/LegoLand Dubai.

i've seen MISB out of production lego sets go up in value. afaik, lego isnt too huge on re-issuing past products

here is a nice example

this might change eventually but as it stands now, legos can be a decent investment for collectors

Here buy him this, all the fun he will have with it should distract him from throwing his food on the ground!

That x-wing came off eBay. I think it's either a Lele or Lepin version of a 90's era Lego set. This is the set:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Star-Wars-X-Wing-Fighter-Model-Building-Blocks-Kit-Kids-Children-Toys-Gift-/152230548445?hash=item2371a5d3dd:g:qrkAAOSw-kdXzR7X


Don't spend more than $20 on it if you buy it. I got mine for like $11 including shipping. There are a lot of sellers who offer this set but, the number of them available tended to rise and fall when I was watching it. One week there were none, another week there were dozens.

EDIT: This is the discontinued Lego brand version: https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-X-Wing-Starfighter-Discontinued-manufacturer/dp/B005VPRG3S

LEGO MINECRAFT that item looks mighty fine!

It's the Super Star Destroyer (Executor)

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Executor

http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Super-Destroyer-10221/dp/B0050R0YB8

and the astronomical cost of legos

edit: ~$1100. that's more than my car is worth at this point ;~;

K'nex do sell sets that are intended to be build. Such as their roller coasters. Lego does the same. But Lego also sells boxes of a large assortment of pieces that are intended to use to build whatever you want. Proof? K'nex set lego assortment

Ok, so these large Lego boxes represent our VM hosts. The Lego inside of them are all our VM guests. There's no reason why you can't take something from one host to another, because all the hosts can stack (proceed to put those storage boxes on top of each other, because they're built for that).

On the other end of the spectrum, I do like the Lego version as well (I have the Ghostbusters vehicle set) but not sure if that counts;

https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-DeLorean-Building-Discontinued-manufacturer/dp/B00DQC2FPM

Just get it off Amazon for $35: http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-21103-DeLorean-Machine-Building/dp/B00DQC2FPM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377987711&sr=8-1&keywords=lego+delorean

We ordered a 400 piece set from Amazon (several, actually). My wife used them for a lab she was teaching at the local college - something about molecules.

Note: 400 pieces isn't as much as I remembered. I must have had thousands when I was a kid.

First result when searching "lego" on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00NHQFA1I/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1457624472&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40&keywords=Legos&dpPl=1&dpID=51wH8x4c-hL&ref=plSrch

That's not too bad honestly. This one is expensive as shit.

Non-theme LEGO is expensive.

They made the Ecto 1 from Ghostbusters and Delorean from Back to the Future..

Both of which came from this same program.

You can still buy the giant tub of generic blocks, plates, stick pieces, etc that the girl is holding in the photo. here

Indeed you can, but the amalgamation of the two is not quite as good as either on it's own it seems.

You can still buy "classic" boxes of Lego that have no model associated with them and are just a bunch of random bricks in different colors. Example.

No, you want this set.

Legos are rediculously expensive. Some of the prices might just be rarirty though....

Edit: Bah, if he's really into Star Wars LEGO he probably already has an X-Wing.

lego Delorean this is pretty neat! I'd pick Dead Island if I had the choice!

Too Late And I'm sure someone has made a mod that puts little cylinders on top of every block in minecraft... and if not that'd be the first thing i'd try.

EDIT: Found it! also what the fuck, downvoted? I'm relaying the exact information Craysh was looking for. Not only did Lego make minecraft sets, but there are unofficial texture packs already out there that make minecraft look Lego-ey.

Holy hell that's expensive! Maybe I could cannibalize the countless Lego sets sitting around my parent's house...

Edit: WTF, 800$+???

Damn. Not 7 months ago at the Lego store in Downtown Disney.. 400.00 in a slightly smashed box with a "damaged box discount" NOW, its over 750.00 on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0050R0YB8/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_ikojub1R0A Crazy!

Grats!!!

Some useless crap from mine...

• Bluetooth 'Handset' gloves

• Nerd​tendo Game​booze 8oz Flas​k

• LEGO Delorean

• Chocolate Fountain

• Single-Can Mini-Fridge

• Flux Capa​citor USB Car Char​ger

• Marsh Bow and Mallow

I've got tons of the crap on there, all fairly reasonably priced, and no fucker ever seems to buy me any of it! Even though I constantly point people towards it!

My last birthday, my friends were saying to my girlfriend they "didn't want to buy me something from my wish list". THAT'S WHAT IT'S THERE FOR!

I despair.
