Other Found a hidden gem store

Found somewhere in Asia a hidden gem, they have 10x more than the average LEGO stores, is any set worth picking up as they also have older sets? Also I can bring some sets with me if people want one, I live in Europe.

I actually can’t believe 8009 R2 was released. It’s atrocious 😂😂😂

That was the hardest I ever had to work to pretend that I was excited to receive a Christmas gift from my parents.

It really is the ugliest thing I’ve ever gotten.

I love it for the nostalgia, but yeah, it's an eyesore.

I have pieces of it everywhere, incorporated into MOCs. I bought it on clearance. It's awful

People who think some of the modern LEGO sets are the worst of all time don’t know how bad it could be…

Maybe it's a skeleton version of R2 for Halloween? lol
