It's at Costco for $150 if you're a member there. They also have the World Cup Trophy for $200.

As mentioned, Brick Bin. They have sales once in a while on bulk Lego. There's on 32Ave NE and down south somewhere (I think MacLeod)

Lego has a Bricks and Pieces section on their site, which I only really use for minifigs, horses, and large quantities of the same piece (leaves, etc). 2X VIP points apply to these purchases.

My usual source, a booth at Crossroads Market, is now gone. For example, he always had these sets for $8-10 and I'd buy five and convert the cherry blossoms into trees by swapping the leaves.

Looks like it's the Koenigsegg Sadair's Spear.

Pretty cool, but I think the body of the rocket should open up and have a place for figures to sit.

I didn't realize the Sagrada Família topped out in February, completion projected for June.

Only 143 years to get it all done, not bad. Not bad.
