I browse the Lego ideas forums once in a while and there is a Spirited Away Bathhouse set that is under review which looks totally cool. I don't know if Ghibli has any desire to do Lego but there could be some cool sets that come out of that collaboration.
And I have long back list of other sets I wanted to get, but time and space is holding me back. Running out of room to display stuff, nevermind the dusting.....
I recently traded in an used UCS Rebel Blockade Runner - Tantive IV and an used original AT-AT at the Brickbin. Got a sealed Old Fisherman Store in return. Lost a good chunk on the trade, but I didn't want to deal with selling those used sets myself.

so for father's day i got the apollo saturn v rocket!
i guess i mentioned to my wife a while ago that i really wanted that set. our kids think it's just awesome that the rocket is almost as tall as them. our son can't wait to get started on it and is amazed that a lego set could have almost 2000 pieces! ha! ha!

It’s a great build. It was our first as AFOLs and kinda started the whole family lego project during Covid. It’s been a really great thing for us.
It’s the build that I’ve recommended quite a few times to people to see if they like building or just like the idea of building. I found it a decent price as an entry point too.

I still need to get rid of some LEGO, I think I'm going to give this a try. Apparently spread all your LEGO out and the app will figure out what pieces you have from the camera and suggest projects using those pieces. Even tells you where in the bunch of LEGO to look for the piece!

That might be enough to get me to switch to iOS. Hopefully an android version is coming, as that looks awesome.
On the apps website, it says android version coming this fall.

I'm missing 12 pieces of my Falcon set (no clue where they went). I'm trying to replace them. I can get 8 of them from LEGO.ca...for 8 bucks. But the other 4, no clue. Gonna try Brick Bin later today and see if I can find them there.

Have you checked Bricklink?

Yeah. And I can get all 12 pieces (which helped me ID them, as the LEGO.ca site was not helpful there, either) for about 50 cents...from 10 different suppliers.
I would just contact customer service and tell them they went missing, and they usually send them for free.
Just wanted to say an extra thanks for this tip. I was looking through their 'Pick a brick' section only, and couldn't find some of what I was looking for.
Swapped to 'missing set pieces', found 10/12 pieces I needed, and the shipping was not charged.
Edit: Lego.ca has denied the order, they won't be sending any of the pieces. I had gone to Brick Bin and found the two that I still needed without any issue...so I'll just go back another day and get the rest I need (as they are all pretty common pieces).
