It really annoying when this happens

Use a hair dryer on the labels, heat them up considerably. Use a card from your wallet to slide under one corner of the label (or a knife, less chance of damage with a card though) and prise it up = profit.

Looks like there are some new Star Wars sets. BD1 and the inquisitor ship.

Where do you hear about these new sets? Just on the Lego website or somewhere else?

Hadn’t come across even before. The N1 arrives tomorrow, so I’ll see how much I like that before I decide what else I order.

My Land Rover arrived yesterday. Need to get my desk cleared before starting it.

The pyramid of Giza looks nice, but that pyramid must be a monotonous build.

I quite like that 11 Grimmauld place HP set too. I find Star Wars a bit meh, I’d love some Trekkie stuff.

Inquisitor ship reminds me a lot of the Argo from Star Trek.

EDIT: Well a cross between that and the mercenary ship in TNG Gambit.

Anyway. I’ve ordered it

 

[413x]

I've ordered the Ferrari. But I'm sending it back. Its too much money for too trash a model. I'll wait until it gets discounted. If it doesn't. I'll give it a miss

 

[413x]

I like the look of the inquisitor.

What's with this pre order stuff?

I’m tempted by it, although I may pick up those that are closer to the end of their production.

It's also what I usually do.

Tad confused/concerned about this 10-20 percent price increase.

I still think black Friday should save overall

 

[steve5424]

I've seen some of the new US prices and some of them are shocking! I think the Mustang is going up by 31% as an example.

Here is a video giving some of the new proces in US dollars

LEGO Prices Are Going Up!

Today, we're talking about how LEGO's prices will be going up! Sets from January, upcoming sets in the Summer AND even large sets from previous years. Articl...

Gees. Some of those like the lego sian.
30 percent?
That's crazy.

I will probably be purchasing some sets before this occurs.

10-20 is a lot. 30 is ridiculous.

 

[Nogimmix]

Picked up "I am Groot" today. Was a pleasure building it and looks great. I might pick up Optimus Prime next.

 

[Reuben klang]

Due to the price increase. I cashed in all my VIP points for cash and bought the Ferrari.

 

[b0rn2sk8]

It’s nuts the Ferrari is in the list for the price increase given it launched what a week ago? You’d have thought they’d known the actual pricing at the point of launch… it’s straight out of Nvidia’s playbook that one is.

 

[Raymond Lin]

Land Rover just arrived packaged properly

 

[MikeTheNative]

I quite like the BD, not too bad of a price either.

 

[steve5424]

Land Rover just arrived packaged properly

Mine arrived Saturday packed in a large box. It's going to be a long build I think. The instruction book is so thick.

 

[pepp77]

I am just in the process of starting to break down my Land Rover to sell on. Might have to hold off for a little bit and see if it does retire shortly first.

Did spend most of yesterday afternoon/evening build Optimus Prime though. I like it as a robot, but turning it into a truck is a faff, and it then doesn't look anywhere near as good.
