Just wanting to complete my twitch minifigure and I need one of his anteanna.
But after already spending a pretty penny buying the minifgure I dont want to
fork out $40-90 for an anteanna. Is there anyway to get a very rare part like
this without spending so much? Its almost as much as the actual figure.

Hey everyone,

I've seen some amazing Lego builds recently, I've been looking at some
beautiful Lego statues, mostly the ones in the Lego shops around the world. Ones
like the life-size Lego Buzz and Woody from Toy Story.

I would love to make one as a project, I know it's an extremely long shot
but is there anyway to get instructions to a build to this scale like the images
below? I would love the instructions to a Buzz or Woody one. I know there are
catalog listings of a few but no instructions or how to acquire them are listed.

Thanks,
The Cute Giraffe

Hey yall,
I have recently acquired the garbage truck getaway 7599, after a year or so of
searching. I found a slight misprint in the instructions, this misprint is also
in the physical booklet.

The minifigure, Twitch has 2 antenna on his head, but the manual shows this rare
piece as only needing one.

What do you think? I thought it was a bit odd.

I was thinking about that but Twitch would be a wonderful addition to my collection,
it's the last toy story set I need!! I've got them all second hand/used
so far, makes them cheaper and I can do it all in 1 order. Thanks for the advice
though.

I'm trying to get it second hand and in Australia to cut on overseas postage.

I messaged a seller a few weeks ago about a certain set which was pretty good,
he had a good description of it, they are a small seller, so I thought reply
time would be pretty quick. The set is not a very common set, being exclusive
in some places around the world so I was vey eagerly waiting for a reply. Still
no reply after 3 weeks, but they have read the message.

I still am after the set, is there anyway to get them to reply?

Thanks,
The Cute Giraffe

I think it will do much better elsewhere, where stuff like that is better well
known.

Not really my jam tho.

Apart from exclusivity in the set, what makes this minifigure so rare and challenging
to acquire?

I am also aware a lot of them are missing the antenna but what makes it rarer
than say

They are both from the same year, in sets released around the same time.

Just curious,
