The pick a brick team is going to test providing us with lists of upcoming element launches and notifications of when elements will be removed from pick a brick.

The team has provided a list of soon to be discontinued 'last chance' items.

I am not sure if the link below can be accessed by everyone but if it cannot and anyone is interested I can send them a file. Please PM me if interested.

Hi all I'm under pressure here trying to complete my new moc and I found it hard to order needed amount of 1x1 trans clear. This was available in last years lugbulk so if any of you have big juicy bag of it and no plans to use I'm willing to swap for different parts or sets or figures. I've plenty to offer. Pm me thanks

Only new to trying to build up stock for builds.

im seeing used lego going for the kilo 25Euro per kilo on average.

Is it worth buying the kilo just to start building up stock?

And on a side note: Do you ONLY use Lego or do you use off brands aswell?
or is that a No No ?

Hi, I just wanted to give a mention to the World of Wonder Toys shop in Nenagh. I was in it a couple of days ago and was blown away by their large selection of sets. They have even more online. They were kind enough to allow me to put up a Brick Feile poster. Will definitely be returning when I am down there again.

Earlier in the week i picked up a copy of

in smyths blancharstown for the animals as it's currently on sale. when i opened it i noticed loose lego in the box and at first figured one of the bags did not seal properly, i quickly noticed that there was a lack of animals and sure enough all the animals had been taken, the box resealed and returned to smyths. this was not an error at factory, someone bought the set, opened the box carefully, grabbed what they wanted and returned it.

so when buying sets for valuable parts it looks like there's at least one [insert suitable name here] out there buying sets and returning them sans the parts afols are probably buying the set for.

smyths did allow me to swap the set and check in store that the new one was all there.

Argos are to close all its Irish stores on 24th June and as they say it’s an ill wind that doesn’t blow someone good luck so expect a big closing down sale.

That being said obviously it impacts people s jobs which is sad and it gives smyths more power in the toy market in Ireland

Hi,
I was just wondering does anybody else think that the thresholds for GWP are getting consistently higher. 250 euro spend to get 40583 Houses of the World (348 pieces) seems high to me. I know you are also getting the lunar add on pack 40605 and the lunar rabbit 40575 at the same time but 250 is a lot. I'm sure they are probably trying to encourage us to buy the new jazz club 10312. I am still not sure about that one. The new a-frame cabin 21338 coming in February kind of grabs me more. Also I thought there was supposed to be a van gift for purchasing the modular in February. At this rate they will be asking for more that 250 euro for a GWP soon.

I have noticed that the mosaic maker set

is available on ls@h for 99.99 euro. Not bad for 4501 1x1 plates (900 of both greys, white, black and yellow) including a 48x48 baseplate.
