I've just had an idea and after googling couldn't find anything, so I figure this would be a good place to ask:


Does anyone know of a "cheap set" program? For instance, you put in the set you want, set search options(cheap as possible, close to original set as possible(with or without price thresholds), in a certain color, etc.) and it would return how much it would cost to buy your set piecemeal, from somewhere like bricklink.


Unfortunately, I'm not experienced enough to actually make this, and even if I was, I'd still be here asking if anyone else has already done this.


If it has been made, could one of you share it with me?

Nope, I didn't get ONE in my Hulkbuster, and it seems the Replacement Service files the left and right arms, as well as the torso, each as their own pre-packaged Hulk bag.
Hence I have three Hulks and two extra hands.

Since I need extra pegs for the arms anyways, I'm going to try to design some smashable Car Gauntlets for my Nephews.

See anon, the thing is, when someone continues to make off-topic /pol/ shitposts about "Berniecucks", "Shitskins", and "Cuntbusters", the janitors delete these posts because they are off-topic /pol/ shitposts.

I see this a ton on CL. Hell, some people list sets still in production at a markup.

Some guy is trying to sell a sealed Ideas Exo-Suit for $75, when you can still get it off Amazon brand new for $28. Another dude is trying to sell a brand new Petshop for $175, when you can still pick it up off shelves for retail. Hell, you can get it of eBay right now brand new for UNDER retail.

>>5552979
>>Some other jew faggot is using it as a business website, linking to Brickpicker for his prices

I see this too, but most people link to laughable Amazon prices.

One guy is trying to sell old SW sets for two or three times their already laughable aftermarket prices. He has a UCS X-Wing for $2500.

Its either shit like that or massive, unsorted random bags/boxes of bricks that they have no idea what is in it, so they just slap $1000 on it, hoping someone will bite.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B018MVKDQO
WOW I'll take your entire stock at that low price

You can still get great things from jobjots if you're prepared to scour the photos to find something that would cost half the price of the joblot just to aquire via BL. I got lucky and won an almost complete 8001 Battle Droid for £18, but I actually wanted the 12x 16M yellow Technic bricks from the pile of other stuff it was sitting on to finish building [pic related]. The whole lot had something like £150 worth of bits in it.
>>
>>5553042

I can't believe those prices are for SINGLE parts. Those are so ludicrous (especially that second one) that it makes me think the listing is actually an error, or something. I mean, damn.

Usually, for US prices at least they have the decency to give you like, 4, 5, 6 pieces for a dollar or something.

But they're all just joints. Unless you figured out how to make lego joints yourself - which most people don't - their function in your head when you build shit is exactly the same.

this one. We didn't had lego in small towns like mine. Lego was like some cool-weird miracle thing that exist in big cities and MURIKA (even if its from europe but back in 90s we thought all coll things go from USA).
My mom went on a job thing to the capital city of my country and brought this.
She returned after 3 days at 1:00AM and i was waiting for her all the time and refusing going to sleep because i knew she gonna bring some cool toy that will blow my mind.
And she fucking did. This was one of the best things i could imagine. A shark and a submarine with claws and stuff.
I was doing so much stuff with it. Turning it into a robot and etc.

I still have parts of it especially that cockpit area. And...hm..i guess i should try to build a robotshark with this being a cockpit for a pilot. Nowadays we have so much cool stuff like mixel joints to make this look even more badass.

Yeah, while I don't always agree with people saying Lego were better before, the Pirates theme really is an exception.

That line lasted less than a year and isn't being sold anymore. I like historical themes in general though, so I'd love some Western or Samurai. Now that Castle has become Nexo Knights, are there even any historical themed sets being sold anymore?

>love it. for a mid sized set it's really well packed with all the essentials for fun
Yeah, it is. I have both the Black Seas Barracuda and the Black Knight's Castle, but Forbidden Island made a much stronger impression on me as a kid.

Okay, fair, Pirates did get a shaft last year, but at least they got a few sets.

Samurai haven't gotten a theme ever, only being part of ninjas and Ninjago, and I don't think we've seen western since the early 2000s either (not counting The Lone Ranger)

This one, though with the rest of the theme as the heroes, of course.
