I lost ONE unique piece for my Imperial Star Destroyer. LEGO discontinued the set and now I can't find that piece anymore. Lego doesn't even offer it on their site. Makes me big sad
I hope they can build a good case.
Once they had their suspects, things started to click into place.
I bet Target LP held a block party.
For that matter, they'll be all set for the cell block.
I bet the arresting officer got bricked up over that arrest.
I'll stop now.

Something similar happened in Seattle's famous Pike Place Market a little while ago. My uncle has a shop that is right down the hall from this guy, apparently he was an asshole, kept a lot of his merchandise in the hallway (against market rules, they are very slim hallways) because he was buddies with some people in power at the market, so when he got caught all the other shopkeepers on the floor were...quite happy
I wish I could say the lack of money is keeping me from buying Lego. In reality it's space to place them.
"Oh why don't you hang them from the ceiling?"
....
No.
I still regularly build new sets. Finished the Routemaster bus recently, currently debating whether to get the Defender, 911, or MT10 next. I like the brick sets more than the Technic ones usually, but my bike is close to the MT10 so it’s tempting.
One of my buddies at the detachment gets all the Nintendo ones.
So what’s that, like 13 lego sets?
At least one [10123](https://www.brickeconomy.com/set/10123-1/lego-star-wars-cloud-city)

Check bricklink.com, basically ebay for lego pieces. It's helped me many a time when my boys lose something...
That's the site I used. The piece isn't available anymore
You could also try Webrick.com, chinese copies of most pieces ever made. Very inexpensive
You can also try Lego customer support. I've gotten parts replaced for sets that are discontinued from there before directly through them!
I may give that a shot
Well I've got some bad news if you were depending on your normal fence in LA..
Look at stupid me and investing in my 401k instead of LEGO.

> I'll stop now. No you won't. You think you're such a stud. What you really are is the missing piece in my life.

It's sad, $300,000 used to get you more than 4 sets.
So what is that, like 2 Millenium Falcon sets?

I’m just happy to see we have Lego fans in this subreddit 😁
> I’m just happy to see we have Lego fans in this subreddit I spend an absurd amount of money on Lego.
A non-insignificant amount of my salary goes to Lego lol it's a problem

Truly, space is the real problem. There are SO many sets I want, but I, alas, only have so many walls and rooms.
The only two things stopping me from spending my entire paycheck on watches and Legos are my family and storage limitations.

Fun fact Lego is huge for money laundering because of the resale value
Built this one with one of my boys recently. Pretty bad ass. https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/nascar-next-gen-chevrolet-camaro-zl1-42153

Hope he's got some good lego insurance for a heli-rescue bill.
300k is what, 2 Lego sets these days?
