Lego Haul - 6/10/16

I was traveling for work last week, but that doesn't mean I can't go buy Lego's after I'm off the clock.

Lego Haul for 6/10/16

I placed an order on Lego's website before I left on my trip.  I got Lego Marvel Avengers for Wii U and a 60119 Ferry.  Since I spent over $75, I also got a free 40221 Fountain.  I also got a deal for a Legoland ticket, but since I don't like in California or Florida, it's a worthless piece of paper.

I'm not sure what I'll do with the Ferry, since there isn't another port to move the cars to.  It's not like my Lego city is Seattle or San Francisco or whatever.  But I did want something commercial, something larger, to be in the ocean besides fishing boats, personal watercraft, and the police.  The boat looks like it can hold about 3 cars, which is nice.

My original goal with my Lego order was to get Lego Marvel Avengers, as my wife and I have been enjoying all of the Lego games we've bought for Wii U so far.  I added the Ferry to get to $75, so I could get the free 40221 Fountain.  I love getting the bonus sets for spending extra bucks on Lego.  It didn't cost me much, as I used all $65 I had in store credit for my order.  I got everything for $16.

The fountain will go into the park area I'm still working on developing.  Stay tuned for more details.

Even though I has Lego's waiting for me at home when I returned from my business trip, I couldn't go on the road and not buy any Lego's.  As I mentioned before, my wife and I enjoy all the Lego games we have right now.  So very much fun.  For my wife's birthday, I grabbed the 71206 Scooby-Doo Team Pack.  We put him to go use right away, unlocking a number of achievements in Lego Dimensions.  Shaggy isn't quite as useful, but the Mystery Machine and Scooby snack will be utilized frequently.

I got a Lego catalog for Summer 2016 before I went on my business trip, but I start class again Monday, so it may be a while before I buy more bricks.  There is some new stuff I have to get my hands on.  I just hope I have enough time to go get, build, and write about them.
