http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/146540868...as2&tag=f0f5-20

Actually i'm planning to bring in since my colleagues wanted 2 of these

Still thinking whether wanna do Pre-Order or not 

Ordering it bro?

bro..i'm looking forward for your final price of the 4 sets i pmed you

but if the 2 modular cannot get less than RM700 then count me out

one of the LYN forummer offer me this price for modular before...but i still didn't get it coz that time no money...i dunno if he'll offer you this price or not...you should try nego with him...but don't mention i say this

Bro alby,

did u get my PM?

So here's a question for all all you collectors: if the value appreciated.  Would you actually sell it if it was your only set?

Or would the satisfaction of knowing you have a valuable set be enough?

I'm asking because I have some Hot Toys which value has gone up which I didn't attempt to sell.

I did that when I was collecting comics though. It was cheaper and used to by multiple copies of certain comics.

Parcel arrived 

So what big big set are you referring to?
Oh, so you used to collect MP series. I've got MP-01 and MP-05 only from the MP series. Got a bunch of other TF too.

Haven't sold ANY of my toys so far. Any they continue to pile up in my store room. 

Yup, you are right. Not only sellers are risking it. You are also risking it.

Still grateful for the Iron man deals

Hi guys,

Finally I get enough rest to write my first Lego shopping report. 

That was my little haul yesterday. Was on a day trip to Singapore yesterday and had a little time before I leave to check out one of my favourite Lego store in Singapore: ToysHunt. They have branches in Novena Square, Great World City and Tampines. I've visited both Novena Square branch and Great World City main branch in the past but not Tampines. Personally I like their Novena Square branch more because it is well organised, the main branch at Great World City is much bigger but I find it more cluttered probably because they have more stuff lying all over the place...

Also Novena Square is more convenient for me as sometimes I take the bus rather than drive and the bus stop right at Novena Square. So nothing beats browsing the shop while waiting for the bus to depart, gives me extra incentive to wait patiently for my return bus ride and usually time flies when you are in the Lego shop!

ToysHunt is very well stocked not only with Lego sets but also almost all things Lego like mugs, t-shirts, bags etc. They have a good selection of every theme including Duplo and they are very up to date with the latest releases. Just yesterday I stumbled upon one of the three Iron Man 3 sets: 76007. Super Heroes theme is not in my radar but I just grabbed two sets anyway since I find the price of $80 to be 'reasonable' for a set that size... They don't have the sets I want at the price I want so I might as well help someone here in the forum. I know quite a few forum members wanted 76006, 76007 and 76008 so I inquired for the benefit of everyone here:

76006: $50.90 (out of stock in Novena Square, available at Great World City)
76007: $79.90 (more than 5 sets in Novena Square)
76008: $29.90 (out of stock but new shipment expected in a few weeks)

Again, I'm not familiar with Super Heroes sets pricing so please make your own judgement on this. The base plates I find to be quite reasonable at $13.90 a piece for 32x32 and $24-$27 for 48x48.

There are several points that make ToysHunt stand out against other Lego stores:

1. They sell loose parts!
2. They sell parted out sets! ie. for example they have LOTR Unexpected Gathering set without minifigs. SW sets without minifigs.
3. They sell lots of minifigs!!! Minifig collectors will drool until the floor is banjir! haha!
4. They sell custom minifig & weapons! Fancy a SWAT team? They have it!
5. They sell custom minifig casings. These are good quality ones made in USA/Europe. I remember reading it somewhere before...
6. They always have some sets on special promo.

This time 6873 Spider-man's Doc Ock Ambush slashed from $79.90 to $59.90 and UCS B-Wing slashed from $415 to $369 thereabouts. I was undecided whether to take one set each of 6873 and 76007 but in the end just went for two of 76007.

Well, this is my mini report on ToysHunt. They have an online store too: www.toyshunt.com.sg

I don't have the luxury of roaming around Singapore to check out other Lego stores but ToysHunt is pretty darn impressive to me and I think should be up there with the best if not the best in Singapore.

can i ask who may bring in this set Lego New 75010 B-wing Starfighter & Planet Endor?

Today's haul and the last haul for the month till my Lego budget stabilizes. May I present to you the Victory Lap Raceway from the year 1988! Bought from Amcorp today

13 minifigs! So many printed pieces I lost count. 2 large base plates! Comes with recovery vehicle in case of crash! Even have a medic with stretcher on standby! Two pits to serve the 4 unique race cars! I wonder why TLG never produced a set like this anymore 

Some of my minifig population decided to watch the race in action, hence the place looks very crowded.

Latest haul from US with the help of a friend

OMG gone for a week and the thread flies!
Alamak @Mr. Alby I just saw this... Can still place order ah?? I want the palace cinema and camper van 
the COD locations are no problem for me... but i hope the price will be really good! Good also if arrive in June/July... that means I got budget already 

Will be in Penang in April... anyone from there got anything interesting to sell? hehehheheheh

Went to ikea yesterday to get ribba frame.,,,30 minutes standing in undecided.. which one should i get?


decided to buy frame on the right side, smaller size, can fit about 18 minifigures instead 70minifigures if i choose the left frame. i tot if bigger frame, too crowded.. not exclusive enuf. bought 6 of them.

on my way home, drop by stationery shop and bought really thick cardboard. now i have these for my project:


doing the measurement, cutting the cardboard took only 20 minutes..


and the result... walla!


the frame cost RM34.90 (ribba ikea frame) and the cardboard cost RM7.50 (can cut up to 8 size of the frame). including the white 2x2 bricks, the cardboard and the frame itself..  total cost is about RM40/frame.. 

I have benefited from alby's CS. I will try to post more and paying it forward.

Those that frequent spore, there are always sales around the island. Just last week and the week before that, they had some 20% promotion, and those big sets are really a steal. modulars at RM600, and arkham asylum was also at <RM600.

Also, it is highly expected that the newer 2013 sets are going to be cheap in terms of RRP. So if you can wait, i strongly suggest waiting. Take palace cinema for example. RRP in spore is expected to be SGD250 only. toystation have their stock at about RM585, but it all sold out bcos everyone wants a piece of the action since its new.

happy hunting!

bro, stock is not tat limited la for AA. It has been in stock for the longest time. I think it was out of stock for a few days when it just came out. Since then its always been available... anyways, you can always ask him to keep it for you a few days before you drop by. I think they will reserve for you since its no longer such a hot set in spore now (esp when sales got <600!!!). 

and risk kena tax :|
