Our Latest Haul

This post may contain affiliate links. Here is our disclosure statement.

Hey folks! As you can see, some of my posts are missing images and links due to some host issues I experienced recently. I'm working through getting those corrected as quickly as I can. However, if you are looking at a page you'd like me to correct sooner rather than later, drop me a line with the title of the blog post and I will move it up in my list of fixes to make. Thanks for your help!

As it turns out, the list of things I’ve been waiting on buying until VIP Double Points came back around was only slightly different from what I walked out with from the LEGO store. We ended buying:

LEGO Painting Easter Eggs (40121) – two as stated…
LEGO Minifigure Ice Lollipop Popsicle Mould Mold Tray – planning on using these later today…
LEGO Elves Treetop Hideaway (41075)
LEGO Creator Mountain Hut (31025)
LEGO Series 13 Minifigures – Hot Dog Man – we sold ours earlier this year, but I wanted a replacement for our set and another to sell…

The Mountain Hut has been on my “possible” list for a long time. I’ve rather liked it a lot and seemed to gravitate towards it often, but never picked it up. Once again, it’s more of a space issue with us and the LEGO sets we own.

However, I was finally able to justify the purchase since we’re currently building our ski lift and winter village resort for this Christmas. (I know, I know… but it’s a lot of work to leave until the last minute!)

I’m thinking of modifying the first build so that we have a full mountain hut sitting at the top of some rocks or using the bridge and stair portion of the third build to lead to the mountain hut. Either way, I’m sure I’ll need to buy some extra bricks in order to get the scene I want. I also thought it would be nice to build it all overhanging a Yeti cave we already have in progress.

I still have taxes to do, but most likely will break into the LEGO haul this weekend, although The Little Brick already made us build the Treetop Hideaway with her…

Can’t wait to setup the mountain hut!

Also, Allen at The Brick Fan mentioned he saw a lot of LEGO sets on sale in his local store that were not on sale in Shop@Home. This was true for our store as well, so it may be for yours, too!

What sets did you buy this weekend?
