With the new sets for the summer finally on the shelves, we have a few more really good sets for MFZ parts.
9448 Samurai Mech is only $39.99 for 452 pieces. You get a slew of really good ones; hinges, clips, bars, cheese slopes, technic, new brackets, lots of gold bits, and two funky new pieces -- a new connector and an inverted tile.
9463 The Werewolf is $19.99 for 243 pieces. This one is from the new Monster Fighters line. It doesn't have quite as many neat parts as the Samurai Mech but, it is a smaller set. It does have four Taps though.
9461 The Swamp Creature is $6.99 for 70 pieces. Another Monster Fighters set, this -- being a small set -- only has a handful of parts.
4208 4x4 Fire Truck is $21.99 for 243 pieces. A good range of parts in Green, Black, Grey, and Red.
4434 Tipper Truck is $21.99 for 222 pieces. This one isn't so new but it does feature a bunch of good pieces at a decent price point.
All of these sets fall into or under the 10 cents per part "golden ratio".

40031 Bunny & Chick is currently on sale at the lego store for $1.48 a set, which is a pretty smoking deal! Even with shipping, it's at about $0.05 a piece and each set has 4 travis bricks...
ReplyDeleteIt's mentioned in the "Buying Lego Sets for MFZ" post.
DeleteIt's existence is mentioned, the sale price of $1.48 instead of $4.99 is not.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I picked up two sets of Bunny & Chick this past weekend on my first trip to the Austin LEGO store. Also picked up the Star Wars Brickmaster book as well, and a nice cup of random parts for $8.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendations!
