want buy stuff also hard

i think is RM going down...thus making other going up

Can we meet later at around 12.30pm?

USD is still ok, earlier this year was around RM3.10+ = 1USD
Today its RM3.28...

GBP was great this year and it has never breach through the RM5.00 resistance, now it has so it will continue to rise until the next resistance...

EURO used to be 4 - 4.1....now 4.3. hahahaha
maybe GBP is going to its historic RM 7 = GBP 1


12.30pm i should b around Plan B will bring the stuff along.

Wah makan Plan B... hehe

Unemployment rate is still very high in the UK so GBP shouldn't be going anywhere near RM7 within these few years.

I HOPE...

big sets cannot haul liao, just hauling some parts and figs... just hope retail price can maintain around standards early this year.

by the way anyone been to one u parkson lately? any new arrivals like galaxy squad second wave and castles? not much choices when i was there 2 weeks ago..

Yeah I saw it too. SOLD OUT means habis cerita for those still hoping to get this...

Yup! Reached 20k limit. Initially they took it off completely and no trace of the set, now they put it back into their database so at least you know of the existence of this set....

If you use non-rechargeables, the depleted batteries are still good enough for other devices like alarm clocks, remote controls (tv, aircond, etc.), and even LED-torchlights. But then, you will have a lot of these batteries, and you can MOC like this:


That is why I opt for re-chargeables, but due to lower voltage, I need to put in 7-8x instead of 6x. Hence, my MOC on battery pack couple of months ago.
Now, I want to use 9V DC adapter, since some of the stuff don't run far, like the excavators.

test-meter can get anywhere, normally I goto Pasar Road, Pudu in KL. Branded one is like Fluke. Yes, those with two cables, normally black and red.

Test meter quite useful, can test many things. AC or DC voltage. from 0.xxx to 1000V, even for cheapo ones.
Can test Amp, Ohm resistance, simple broken cable test, etc. Can use for home electrical also (don't simply plug into the 240V AC if don't know what you want to test )

When motor run slow, I just recharge the whole 6-8x lots of batteries. Quite conclusive on low-batt most of the time.
Very rare I check it often. But sometimes useful to isolate out a single faulty/flat battery, as it can cause the entire battery pack problem.

Hahaha S@H is your 2nd home huh?

I haven't build 42009, but looking at your pic, the red circle gear seems misplaced (or by other beams/axles in wrong holes/location ?)

Why I say so, generally, that tan-colour 12T gear should not have free-space at the back of it. Also, it should not slide on its axle. It will rotate properly in place, using the grey-colour 20T gear.

My suggestion, recheck the entire build around 5-10 studs/holes of the tan gear. I suspect some beams/axle at wrong place.

we may actually see shipping charges come down during economy boom as ships and planes are carrying more full loads...

Good morning taikuns! Friday's here again.
Next week things should return to normal. Kids back to school. Terrible traffic also back.
See a lot of taikuns griping about our weak RM. That's the best antidote to Lego poison, reduce our addictive/mindless/endless hauling. Even unlimited cheat code seems to have expired. Some of the regular taikuns have gone into hiding... or HT!
