Probably. But I will wait to Black Friday.

@TheBrickPal - what happened to the other new LEGOShop.com article with the 20+ comments?

Already Pre-ordered the Death Star back in September. Picking it up this Saturday (here in Australia)

I hate these Lego Ad articles, especially, especially this time. Oh well I'm buying nothing good luck to all.

I picked up a Gameboy set at my local Sam’s Club last week. They’ve been carrying a bunch of different sets with a nice discount. In the case if the GB, it was marked at $49.99. Pretty nice!

Game Boy is definitely on my must buy list, otherwise what kind of 80s kid would i be?? (plus I'm looking forward to comparing it to my actual original Game Boy for size comparison too. XD) *cue Tetris music*

Well that was the first time a Lego midnight launch purchase went that smoothly. Does that mean site traffic is low for this one?

Personally not interested in any of the new releases except for the Gingerbread AT-AT. Hopefully that'll still be available for the VIP weekend in November. And I completely forgot about that enormous overpriced half-Christmas tree thing. Still won't be getting. I would like to see some analysis of the leaf pieces on it, though, as I think they are new.

Anyways, I figured I'd put this here... PSA to everyone in the eastern/NE USA - Costco currently has these sets:
75417 UCS AT-ST - $169.99 (RRP $199.99)
10372 Hibiscus - $52.99 (RRP $69.99)
10348 Japanese Maple Tree - $44.99 (RRP $59.99)
72046 Game Boy - $48.99 (RRP $59.99) (idk why this is more expensive than the Maple Tree)
40743 Christmas Table Decoration from last year - $29.99 (RRP $39.99)
These might be still available, though remaining stock will vary by warehouse:
75418 SW/ 76456 HP/ 43273 Disney Advent Calendars - $34.99 (RRP $44.99)
31169 Typewriter / 31170 Flamingo / 31174 Telephone - $20.99 (RRP $29.99/$24.99/$29.99)
10345 Flower Arrangement - $79.99 (RRP $109.99)

The Game Boy was selling pretty quickly at my warehouse over the past week. Guess there are more fans of old Nintendo consoles in my area than I thought.

Thank you.

You don't have to see them, you know. Just go to https://brickset.com/profile/newspreferences and uncheck "Lego.com shop."

The ending isn't funny any more, due to current events, but the song overall is still worth a listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWTFG3J1CP8

I agree, the music still rings nicely. The vid was good but a little too heavy to watch in the current climate (it's now nowhere as funny as it could've and should've been like before imo) but you did spur me to find the nostalgic one from the game itself, along with some nice pictures of the Game Boy, Game Pak, and original Tetris screenshots. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/NmCCQxVBfyM?si=yTnCgzOK39vJjpL6

The Game Boy is the only one of these sets I might get someday. But I'm in no hurry.

I got mine at Costco! Same price.

And here's the original, as in the nineteenth-century song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umEDct4BoGc

Managed to get in my Game Boy order before it went on backorder (along with another Mario and Animal Crossing set to get to the threshold for the light-up ghost GWP). Very much looking forward to this set—I enjoyed the NES and Atari sets well enough, but this is the first one that was actually a part of my childhood and I love the amount of internal and external detail it has. A part of me wants to try to custom make some other cartridges and accessories for it, including colored Pokémon cartridges—but another part of me wants to wait on the off-chance that they officially release some alongside the Lego Pokémon theme next year.

Picked up the tree during October double points. This will be the largest set I've made, in terms of piece counts.
