Been going through a really hard time these past few months and have got into Lego as a way of taking my mind off of it. Something about assembling the sets is like meditation for me. Built about 6 or 7 sets in the past two months (had a few of them already lying around the house in boxes).
The last one I have left if the Hogwarts castle. The thing is super impressive from the outside, however I have some grievances with how the interior is laid out and how simple certain areas are. My biggest gripe is how the freaking bathroom takes up a massive prominent place in the castle, but the Griffindor common room is thrown into a tiny corner on the first floor like an afterthought. I also wish they could have made the staircases more impressive.

I have a couple of Mega and Lego sets I bought on discount just waiting for the proper rainy day. They're like 3 dimensional puzzles that you can assemble into something cool looking or something entirely different if you wanted. Better than cardboard pictures.

When are we going to find out what the 2019 Star Wars UCS sets are going to be. I'm hanging out for some epic rereleases.....

Hope it's not another Cloud City or Insult on Hoth. I want an improved Tantive or regular Star Destroyer.

That's what the two rumored UCS sets are going to be, Tantive 4 & Star Destroyer.
The place where these rumors came from accurately predicted (based on rumor) the 2019 Anniversary sets that have already been announced so I think there is a strong possibility that is what the 2019 USC sets will be.

Would be perfect for me if those ended up being the two. I have others I would like to see but those top my list.

I'm in there with you, my friend. These last few months have been rather trying for many reasons and Lego has been a relatively affordable therapist. So much so that in a recent interview when asked about my ways of de-stressing, I mentioned Lego as an outlet. It's a much better vice than most things you could find yourself dabbling in.

Anyone know how much these sets go for?
Pirates of the Caribbean - 4181 - Isla de Muerta
Pirates of the Caribbean - 4192 - Fountain of Youth
Pirates of the Caribbean - 4182 - The Cannibal Escape
Lord of The Rings - 9470 - Shelob Attacks
a couple of the pirates sets are missing a couple of pieces but apart from that all sets are inside the boxes and haven't been touched in years.

Been behind on Lego news. Had no idea they were releasing that Mustang. I'm all over that. And yes, bring on UCS Tantive and Destroyer.

Got my Flintstones set on Monday. Looks interesting, but wish it had some more of the things from the original Ideas concept!

Overall a pretty nice set from Lego, but they really could've done a few things better to make this a truly awesome set.

Especially the characture on the heads, the height of Barney and the kids, Bam Bam and Pebbles.
And I think it's a huge mistake they didn't included Dino. I don't think it comes with a single dinosaur or creature.
It makes me think they might just make more sets from this license, but I really hope they fix the face prints.

If that set was $40 or less, it would be a no brainer. $60 is way too much.
