the 15% is subject to the 3mil allocation right? any way to check how much it left or it's still valid now?

I think the 15% cash back is gone by now

My Fire Brigade progress: only finished the vintage fire truck. It's so good looking that I spent 5 minutes admiring it just now
Although it isn't a big truck, but I spent 40 minutes to complete this.



20 minutes to sort out the parts from bags with number "1".
Disaster #1, I somehow mixed a bag of number "2", all small parts into these pile (worst thing is I don't know which parts ) I didn't realize until I was keeping the bags, now I have to be extra careful in picking pieces


Disaster #2, there is a deformed tile in my set Hopefully there is spare, else I can claim replacement from Lego, right?

Is anyone familiar with Ninjago lore (if such a thing exists)? Is it true that in the stories and series, the General and Warrior are unique, but the Soldiers and Scouts are multiple? Or can the Warrior (Slithraa, Fangdam, Bytar and Lizaruu) be multiple as well? Trying to plan which sets to buy, and how to not get too many of any figure unless it's a troop figure.

you can check here. http://ninjago.wikia.com/wiki/Ninjago_Wiki
Quite a long research. Or you get the LEGO Ninjago Encyclopedia

the last time I bought my first LEGO train set 4560 in jusco in 2003 (possibly the last ever of this set in retail... coz the box is beaten up and hastily taped back, seemed like BIB )... I found out a few magnets are missing. submitted my complains in www.lego.com and no respond .

If its a grey/light grey 2x1 tile .. i think I might have extra. PM me to know how I can give it to u

I didn't get to do my truck. My brother wanted to build the brigade with me, so I let him do the truck and I will do the building. hehehehe.
Oh yeah, and it took me 20mins just to sort out number 1 bags.

OMG! You poor fella! I haven't opened the number 2 bags yet... I hope I won't encounter such a thing!

Anyway, will post up some pics too on progress. I only managed to complete 90% of Part 1. Can't wait to continue summore tonight!


By the way.... Got an announcement to make

I got these 2 days ago!

wow.... that means 2.4-2.8k rm gone. i only manage to get 1 box modular in 2-3 month times....

Thanks bro! I'll let u know after I build finish in case there is an extra piece inside, but the likelihood of them giving a spare tile is rare I think.
It's a grey tile (part no: 4211052).

WOAHH! Mind sharing where u bought those?
U are ready for 2013's Modular, the Palace Cinema I'm still missing Grand Emporium & Town Hall

I bought them from new zealand... from a site called trademe.... much like our lelong.my and ebay. we can bid or buy now or something like that. best part about it is that you can lay-by for 60 days (put deposit like 20dollars or something and pay balance later). My parents are living there, so they got them for me.

Costs about RM2.5K for all 4 sets. which is significantly cheaper than buying here I suppose! and no shipping charges cos they all came together with my mum when she came back for holidays 2 days ago....

I'm very blessed to have been this lucky! Those 4 are my first full sets!!! Been refraining from buying so many sets (avengers, lotr, starwars) and only collecting minifigures so far till now

And yes, very much looking forward to the palace cinema! and I wish I had the earlier sets like green grocer, cafe corner, market place... but they all costs a bomb now. Green grocer costs as much as the 4 sets combined!

Looking for all modular collectors here, maybe we can make bulk orders with bricklink collecting parts for cafe corner like one of the forumers who successfully collected all parts (with subs) for RM700++ only!

Had to assemble the Fire Brigade cos my brother waited over a month to help me build this...
(sorry for the low-res photos... will take better quality ones later )



Now I'm at work... and all I can think of is to complete the whole thing by tonight! very sleepy at work now tho

The other 3 buildings will have to wait till 2013...

Added on December 15, 2012, 11:35 amRM2.5K more or less! But "puas hati" kinda spending for lego sets, esp when you get 4 of the ones you want, without ALJ pricing!

BUT! I sooo sooo regret not buying the monster fighters haunted house set from US...



I really want this set. it's so unique. the house was 'made' to look run down and broken. haihhh....

wow this seems kinda nice, im not into lego actually, but when see this set, it make me stoned. how much for this set by the way?

was USD 179.90...

someone here got and selling for RM8++ i think....

singapore is SGD330

no money yet for this! but i bet the price will be more next year.....

great, nice price still can consider. have any source who sell it here at RM8++?

just search at ebay and the price near USD300 include priority mail. good price?

I brought the pet house 1/2 hour ago. Lol. Just swipe the Amex. Hope the 15% still on. LOL. Still lack of fire bridge n town hall. LOL....

yeah it's really a good buy!

Buy it, then can mod it to be Modular friendly

Congrats! From where though?

Today's haul


Share some poison
These 2 only costs RM92.50 each. It' very worth it IMHO, with lots of pieces plus instructions to build varying sets, not sure if there is a book inside though
The SW one is perfect for new SW collectors I guess.



Some douchebag stole the minifig!!

Just opened the box of the AT-RT.
Not bad, small box with 3 polybags... so worth it.

Yoda's head in a special plastic bag of its own!

Oh yah... almost forget...
