Double posting is bad enough, bro. Triple posting might warrant you a warning from a moderator. Better keep it in check. Use the edit button to add to your reply if you must. smile.gif

Thank God I have no interest in the Super Heroes theme. Some pretty hardcore stuff this year... But the vehicles are quite awesome so if anyone wants to let go of the car in this 76002 set in the future, do PM me. Could use a nice car like this in my city. Haha. smile.gif

CNY eve meaning saturday right? can meet there..got annual pass? biggrin.gif
not really nice comparing to? anywhere theme park is for sure crowded..especially during school holidays and public holidays..

LLM is a family theme park..family means for adults n kids..not like USS in singapore which is more to adult theme park..

for me, USS is the best theme park..but i do like LLM also..they need to improve in some areas but still ok..

i only disagree on the ticket price  sweat.gif
so ur into which theme? biggrin.gif

Haha am a lifelong City collector. Also collect Modular and Creator houses/buildings to further enhance my city. And most recently, a dream come true in the LotR + The Hobbit themes. smile.gif
Used to collect those old school Castle lines too but not anymore coz I'm only into medieval, non-Fantasy stuff.

Haha I actually have NEVER taken any photos of my collection to share with anyone all these years. Not here, not anywhere. No real reason to it, to be honest. I mean...they make and keep me happy everyday after a long day at work so I guess that's more than enough for me. Haha. smile.gif

its new year 2013..so change for the better biggrin.gif

sharing is caring bro..maybe we can get ideas on how u play/keep/display the city theme..and of course get poison also  thumbup.gif

Haha I don't think wanting to keep certain aspects of my life personal to myself is a bad thing. So I don't believe in changing how I do things just because others think it's better. It may very well not be for me, after all. Food for thought, no offense though. smile.gif

Nothing really special about how I display them, to be honest. I just partition them accordingly in an empty room from one end to another. Starting with the Winter sets from the left to the farm+airport sets to the main part of the city and lastly to the harbor/beach/coastal guard areas at the other end. The modulars are centered at the heart with the bigger sets like police, fire, service and train stations as well as garages around them to form the central area. Three separate train tracks run from one end to the other as well. Pretty standard layout. Similar to how a lot of guys do it on Eurobricks.

Haha well thanks for understanding. smile.gif

Who knows, I might change my mind someday and start spamming like there's no tomorrow lol.

Nice haul, by the way. I love that Peter Parker fig. Maybe get a sling bag for him to add even more reporter-feel to it. Haha.

Err...kinda doubt it. It's more of a troll listing, if you ask me. That fig can still be gotten at a much better price elsewhere so I doubt anyone who is in their right mind would actually go purchase from these two sellers haha.

You might want to get the Fire Brigade first. Word has it that 2013 is the last year for the set before it goes EOL.

i would say 750-800, considering that rrp is $50 us cheaper than the town hall, similar to pet shop which i think is 760 in LLM (correct me if im wrong).

btw, your maersk train still available ah? :B
*
The RRP is indeed USD150 for the Palace Cinema but if you look around, most places are listing it in the range of USD 180-190 on average so there's hardly any difference when compared to the Town Hall. Might change in the near future, though. Hopefully for the better.

im guessing due to the availability as it isnt "officially" released yet (only for S@H VIP members atm) until 1 march.

That would most likely be correct, unfortunately.

Yes but in his terms it is stated that he does have a day job but i didn't expect to leave and it's been 3 days.

Just send one if you haven't already done so. 3 days is enough of a wait to send a high priority message. If he still doesn't reply, well, better find a different store then.

I mean i sent already. It is not advisable to make payment while estimating the shipping without the invoice right? What would happen to the order status then? First time this has happened to me.
*
Do NOT ever make any payment before you receive the invoice. Just move on to a new store if this drags on. Kinda time wasting to wait so long, if you ask me.

No worries. I understand how it feels when the seller turns out to be unresponsive. I've still got some sellers who never bothered to leave me any feedback even after months of purchasing and completing deals with them. And I can see that they've all received and read my priority messages, and yet nothing in reply. But then again, it's probably not worth the trouble to file a complaint and then expect it all to happen smoothly in the shortest amount of time possible so I just ignored them and moved on.

But this only happens very marginally so it's not exactly a major concern. Most of the sellers are generally quite alright.

I cannot decide between 7938 Passenger Train & 10233 Horizon Express.

Passenger Train comes with motor and remote control and tracks!

Horizon Express is new and more stylish and has a wonderful striking orange colour and it looks cooler...

Simple. Get both. Haha.

I would love to, even though my wife isn't against the idea of me buying "expensive" sets once in a blue moon.
But i'll try not to step on the border line tongue.gif

But i think Passenger train is more value for money and bang for the buck since it comes with motor and tracks.

Horizon express is more expensive and its just the train itself... nice though.
*
Well, to be honest they're both roughly equal in value. While it's true that the Passenger Train comes with a motor and some tracks, the Horizon Express is about double the piece count. And yet their US RRP is the same at 130. So a bit of pros and cons each. Not exactly hard to equip both with motors and get additional tracks hence why I consider them on par with each other overall.
