Finally got rid of my leaf

I really loved my leaf while it worked, but I have to save the last year has been one of the most difficult and frustrating consumer experiences of my life. My range was severely affected by the recall to the point where I wouldn’t even get 100 miles on a charge. Nissan refused to do anything about it until federal recall came out (NHTSA campaign R25C8). Even then, it took them months to buy back my car. All the while I was walking to work (it stopped working eventually) because they said they “didn’t have any loaners” available. Even though in the contract, they were supposed to provide me with a loaner. Luckily I live close enough to walk, but it was not ideal, especially when it was raining, and after having paid nearly $20,000 for a car. Now I’ve developed ringworm for getting wet (sweat and rain) and I’m currently treating it out of my own expense. I finally was able to surrender my car and buy the Hyundai you see on the left. I’m happy with the outcome overall but I wish it could’ve been smoother. I’ll personally never be doing business with Nissan again, and I’d like to warn anyone who reads this about their customer support.

Edit: I forgot to mention that they charged me $210 for the diagnostic to figure out if my car qualified for a battery replacement under the recall, which was illegal. I’m currently fighting that charge.

Invincible figs

Here’s my invincible figure collection so far. Haven’t seen most of these reviewed yet so I thought I’d post a picture of them lined up. The printing on all of them is immaculate, it goes all the way around and is very clear and opaque.

alt brick companies should start making OG Batman

Can we all agree that we would buy every single one of these sets if they came out cheap in alt bricks? Also, I would buy every one of the mini figures from the OG Lego Batman game, including all the different Batman and Robin suits if they made them. Who would we have to contact to make this happen?

Arkham Asylum modular quick review

Overall, the build came together well enough for the price. Everything is exactly the same as the original danish version except for some new round one by one domes were replaced with regular round one by one plates, and the gargoyles in the front were replaced with grey bats. The clear back stickers were great, although a little bit translucent. The gray back stickers do not match the gray that they’re supposed to at all. As you can see, I’ve added my own villains around the set for the most part. The mini figures had very low quality pad printing and the faces were slightly messed up. Only missing a couple unimportant bricks. Overall, I’d give this a 9 out of 10.

Jango and Obi wan display

Here’s my Lepin Obi-Wan versus Jango Fett display. Both sets were complete. I bought the Obi-Wan mini figure separately from TV brand. The green on the stickers look horrible so I cut it off. Only one break on the Django Fett starfighter was deformed and I was able to end it back into place with a pair of pliers. You can see White from stressed plastic right over the yellow stripe on the midsection of the starfighter. Overall, I’m extremely happy with these purchases, in total after coin discounts they cost me about $50 for everything.

Saving Monday gone again

After I just got this banger deal on 20 minifigures for under $1 I can’t seem to find saving Monday anymore. Can anyone else see it or is it actually gone?

Custom civilians for my city

Just got done mixing and matching different knock off, mini fake parts to create regular civilians for my Lego city. A lot of parts are from Stranger Things and breaking bad. The faces and hands were bought separately.

Is there any way for me to get retired KO figures

I just started playing Lego DC super villains and now I really want the crime syndicate but they seem to have retired a while ago. Is there any chance I could still get figures like these?

Saving Monday is back

I opened up AliExpress today and saw a little tab in the bottom right corner for saving Monday. I clicked it and sure enough it opened and gave me some cash to spend next Monday. It worked on the account that I had on my iPhone. but I had no such luck on a separate account that I have on my iPad. Not sure what the difference is.
