This LEGO Release Day Was a Disaster
Today was supposed to be the perfect LEGO shopping trip… but everything went wrong.
From missing out on key minifigures to chaotic store conditions and questionable decisions, this May 1st LEGO release day quickly turned into one of my worst experiences as a collector. Watch me... not have a very good day in this all new LEGO Shopping VLOG. The "Adam" I refer to when discussing the Darth Vader Bust is of course LEGO designer Aaron Newman, whose work I thoroughly enjoy. Sorry, Aaron!

I headed to Smith’s Toys right after opening to hunt down the new LEGO CMF series, check out the latest Star Wars sets, and maybe finally pick up something from Ninjago… but things didn’t go as planned. In this video:

The minifigure I completely missed…
Sometimes the LEGO hobby isn’t just about building… it’s about timing, luck, and not messing up like I did.
