Nice! I hope you enjoy it.
I’m not really that much into Lego myself, but even if I was, the almost C$500 price tag would rule it out for me anyway. But I do have to give props to the fine people at Lego: they set the Canadian price lower than the straight exchange from USD ($490 vs. $561 if going from the current exchange rate). That’s super refreshing to see, because usually companies set their Canadian price higher than what you would see from just converting the USD price to CAD. So kudos to Lego!
Canada probably doesn't have as high a tariff, as the US does now.Nice! I hope you enjoy it.

It costs in Australia - $600 - which equates to US$392. I also got two extra gifts, which I'll give out as Christmas presents for nieces and nephews.Nice! I hope you enjoy it.

I haven't brought any lego in a long time. I just felt like spoiling myself when I saw that it was happening a few months ago.
Yeah I just ordered mine as well. I don't usually buy Lego sets at full price, but I really wanted this one. Plus I had some rewards points, so the final price was a bit easier to stomach.
Pictured, Debris forks for the tractor bucket (with debris on the forks-not included), a Have-a-Heart trap for the feral cat circled on the right. The cat snuck into the house while I was feeding the other cats. Then hid under the sofa, and meowed, but wouldn't come out on his own. I had to get the trap, covered it with a towel, and put in a can of tuna fish for bait. He went for it while I was watching Stranger Things. The theme song got him moving.
I spent this weekend at Comic Con, so I bought a shit ton of comics, toys and other stuff. I'll be posting images when I get home to my PC.
Loratadine, from Amazon.
Posted the toy-related stuff over in the toy thread, didn't take pictures yet of the comics, but two other items:
Forgot the Kraglin figure I bought online for Sean Gunn to sign at home, so I spent quite some time digging through toy and comic boxes at several vendors for a replacement piece. Last minute, I found this fridge magnet.
Some Bud Spencer merch from a booth of the organizers of the Bud Spencer & Terence Hill Annual Film Festival in Berlin. The beans are officially licenced from Italy, the quote on the mug is from a German dub, translated: "Without hay even the best horse can't fart."
Now, this is just a copy, not the original, but it is so well-done that you don't notice without thoroughly looking. It now hangs on the wall behind my desk-
I’m sure there’s a perfectly logical reason why a chainsaw would be mounted on a pole, but not being chainsaw-savvy, I have no idea what that would be.
To cut limbs that are out of reach, while not on the ground, and also not having to reposition the basket, or move the lift as much, when in the air, saves diesel, by keeping the lift shut off after I get the basket into position.
That looks pretty good. I have a huge tree that I have to cut 3 or 4 times a year because it grows so fast. It's beside my house that was damaged in the flood (and still hasn't sold yet).
I had an electric pole saw but there's still no electricity at the house. I have a small battery chain saw so I've been having to grab tree limbs from the top of a ladder with one of those bow rakes and bend the limbs down enough that I can reach them with the hand chainsaw. Fun.
Lucked out and was able to pick up Pokemon Legends ZA. I saved up $20 via Mistplay and my mom helped with the last $40 as a Christmas gift, since I've been working so hard on snow clearing and such.
$170 worth of groceries.
