This arrived yesterday. It’s retiring in June, so I didn’t want to wait. The GWP was a cool little sushi shop.
My wish list is down to six sets. The Botanical Garden, X Mansion, and Arkham Asylum are all scheduled to retire by the end of the year, so those are my next purchases.
I’ve still got time for Avengers Tower, Barad-Dur, and the Enterprise-D.

Last week I finally build my Artoo (the current $100ish one).
I've only had it for a year. I have a few small issues with it, but overall, I really like it.
I'd eventually like the Threepio to go with it.

I still need to build my Starship Collection Tantive IV and the new, smaller BTTF Delorean (Oh, sorry, the "Time Machine from Back to the Future").

Also, about a month or so ago I stopped by a Bricks and Minifigs store, dug through their parts/pieces bins, and built minifigs of my family for Valentine's Day.
I grabbed mugs for the wife and I, a pink wand for my daughter, and a couple of extra torsos for a change of clothes.
They're not perfect, but it was fun and they loved them.

The series 10 BDP final five designs were announced today. Usually I only get one or two of them, but this time I’m excited for FOUR of them. They don’t go on sale until February next year, so I’ve got some time. But I definitely want the Joust and Firehouse. The Kiosk is next. And the Retro Space Diner looks awesome. The only one I’m not as excited for is the Wild West train station.

That Firehouse is pretty cool.
