Since this topic seems to be gaining a second wind, I'll bite (again). . .

My most recent acquisition was the PotC Isla de la Muerta, a nice little set. Comes with a few goodies, but the figs are amazing and well worth it to me. Also recently picked up the Imperial V-wing and Mandalorian BP, both of which were "meh." At this point, I'll be saving my pennies for the summer wave come August.

Well, I have bought 3 sets recently.......3 BIG sets.....

I finally got my Death Star, been only wanting it since it first came out. Got it as my 10th Anniversary present. Took 12 hours of fun building it. Quite nice.

Then about a month later I was at Target and notice the AT-OT......and it was clearanced. When something like that falls into your lap for $175 there is nothing you can do to stop yourself from buying it. The build was alot better, and fun to put together than I originally thought. It actually surprised me how much I like it.

And finally, yesterday I broke down and bought my Tantive IV, with 20% and $40 in Lego VIP (All of which was from my Death Star.) I figured it would be a good set to pick up for $85 out the door.

I now probably won't be buying myself any set in the near future for myself........but hey, that's why I have kids to buy for.

I recently picked up queen's anne revenge. I love the seven minifigs that are included. BlackBeard and Jack Sparrow looks great. It's a pretty easy build but contains over 1000 pieces.

Recently picked up Hagrid's Hut and The Burrow, my first excursion into the HP line. I must say, I am rather impressed with Hagrid's Hut from all standpoints. Some nice parts, a fun little build, well-engineered playset, looks great. Pretty excited about The Burrow now, too! Looks like I'll have to be looking into the Hogwarts, Hogwarts Express, and Knight Bus sets.

Also grabbed an Alien Conquest Jetcopter a couple weeks ago, pretty stoked about that one, too.

Lego Mindstorms NXT 2.0, Toy Story train, Lotso's Dump Truck, HP Knight Bus. Trying to find a Cafe Corner that is not drastically overpriced so I can add it to the Pet Shop and Fire Brigade.

I picked up a few POTC sets since they were on clearance. I picked up the Isla de la Muerta and the set with the mermaids.
