It's going to be a lot easier to get repeats. Maybe the value of full sets
and opened characters will be higher. Any thoughts?

people have had luck using scales to weigh the packages to get the figure they
want

  oh wow, that pretty cool.

I started building my Rivendell set on April 16th. I still have all of book 3
to build which by the way is 25 bags to build the middle section. I may finish
it sometime this year!

How do you do that?  There’s goons keeping you off of it?

I don’t think I ever managed to not finish a build.  Sleep is overrated!


Yes, there is sleep (I get 4-6 hrs. a night), but in truth it is the 3,000+ sq
ft house I have to maintain, 5 children, 12 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren,
4 cats (they take a LOT of my time, and to top it all off my LEGO business.

I consider myself lucky if I get to spend 2-3 hours a week building one of my
own sets.

  How long does the approval process for new sets, parts, and inventories take?

I want to contribute some images, a new part, and the inventory for an exclusive
mexican set, but the set has been pending approval since May 13th.

I already counted all pieces, took pictures, uploaded them, created the new part
& minifig id's (I have its inventory in Bricktore minus the new piece & fig
waiting for their approval). I just wanna know the usual delay time of the process.

The set is: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=6469488-1#T=S&O={%22ss%22:%22MX%22,%22rpp%22:%22500%22,%22iconly%22:0}

New items can take a while to get added as there is always a massive backlog
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogPend.asp
So bricklink prioritizes new sets that people will be more likely to part out
and similar and since a whole bunch of lego sets were just released with the
June wave it can take a while to get to old requests. Bricklink likes to prioritize
the ones that provide the most commercial benefit first they work on the other
ones as they have time since there are only a limited number of people who are
working behind the scenes

Makes sense, lets see how long it takes them to approve this obscure one, thanks!

  I can not link it here as reddit has subs selling Lego. But if you go to /r/Lego
and search that sub for Speed Build, you will find it.

It is absolutely stunning.

I think I’d get a bigger kick from one of these than the other.

  Like everyone else, I was pretty pumped when the LEGO released their 10302 Transformers
Optimus Prime set in '22. I bought one a soon as I could. However, I wondered
if this means that there will a future for a transformer line. Or perhaps
more sets that coincide with the recent 10302 Optimus prime set like Starscream,
or a Bumblebee?I think that it would be a popular line that would be a real money
maker.

For years Transformer fans have had to collect the awful KRE-O sets just to come
close to a real lego set. but now LEGO has broken the barrier and created the
first official set!

I hope that this will spark a future for more sets! post your thoughts below.

I doubt it.
