Thanks

I'm prob only going to order when the designs are actually out. Reason being the pre-orders might not be coming in the same month. And when that happens they will not store your items but send out in two shipments.

Will take note and msg you when I am going to order =)

Happy to find this forum

Hi everyone,

I'm so happy to have found this forum! I've just ordered a few sets from ToyBrickStation including the 2012 Dragon. Can't wait for it to come.

I'm having some trouble with the Drum Set. The pieces keep coming loose. Anyone can help me with that?

U mean the stand base arh? Use plyer to clip it tight? Can't use much force also, it will all fall apart.

always great to have one more fellow nanoblockhead

Which particular piece is loose for you? I had minor problems with the hi-hat as it kept falling down. Don't think the other parts are much of a problem.

The way I solved that was to adjust the 3 legs as well as find the right Centre of Gravity for the top.

The yellow color drum stand. Very hard to balance it. And the yellow color drum suspended by only 1 small piece, keeps dropping off too. I'm contemplating using UHU glue....

Bought some display boxes from Daiso to put all my musical instruments in. So I probably will buy extra plates for the drum set.

Kino + member = $36 I think...not sure. Ask Lilrex or scroll back 10 pages or so in the thread haha..
I made a mistake by using EMS to get mine. so I paid about $56 for mine. If I used SAL it would prob be under $40.

As for where to buy nanoblocks...you can try online order lor
it depends if you want cheaper/convenience/variety

TRU and AC in Singapore is convenient (due to the locations and number of outlets) but is at the normal Recommended Retail Pricing.

Ordering online you get variety and might be cheaper with bulk orders. However definitely not very convenient. There are some stalls with exceptions though...

ToyBrickstation (which I frequent) is cheaper for the standard pieces and they do parallel imports, so they have variety. The parallel imports are usually not cheap but they are quite inconvenient to get to - at Serene Centre.

not a big fan of nanoblocks actually

if they were a bit cheaper maybe i would become one...my favorites are the Sesame Street trio and Stitch, but they are way too expensive and exclusive to get hold of...my wallet doesn't allow

For the Sesame street trio, they cost 1,000 Yen each already. Depending on your exchange rate...it would be about S$16-18 per piece in Universal Studios JPN. Factoring in shipping and all...it kinda depends.

I guess it's all about how much you are willing to spend on each/how desperate you are to get them.

It's no big secret. He got the dragon for S$32 here: Toy Brick Station

IMHO, it's not cheap. I believe Jasonovic can get them cheaper...provided they are even in stock...

nuuuuuuuu pleaseeeee don't uhu glue!

my suggestion:
For the "yellow drum suspended by 1 piece" - try shifting the connecting piece inner a bit and twisting the drum sideways in.I didn't face much problems with this part.

Hi-Hat Drum stand: same thing, shift the "2 brick" piece in, slant the connecting "3 bicks" piece a little. Slowly shift the COG till it balances. What worked for me too was to re-do the legs. Make sure they spread out evenly so that you have a sturdy base.

Jia you! Don't give up!

 

[Jasonovic]

Wah I can't remember when was it I got it from Jason, but I haven't had the time to do up my Sirotan and USAMOMO....

Ehh, no need use UHU glue lah.. haha... can stand de.. just try to find a good center gravity position, then will stay...

and yes, daiso clear plastic display is good, most of us here buy that too.. I got all my musical set covered place in my office... Very important to keep it dust free and in tip top condition for display...

to add on, my pay pal got problem now, not sure when will i going to order anything from my jipun kai.. may not be ordering that soon, i dun mind offload mine 1st and I get mine next time... anyway, me sch starting.. sian... cannot do much nanoblocks liaoz...
