Building My LEGOs

Hey @Target @AskTarget this is unacceptable

@PepperyTwill @Target @AskTarget I did mark it as a gift on targets website when I ordered it.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget You gotta select “this is a gift” for it to come double boxed now. on Amazon it’s “Hide what’s inside” as opposed to “ship in manufacturer’s packaging”.

Hey @Target @AskTarget this is unacceptable

@stagdad @Target @AskTarget It wasn’t in stock at my local target. Thanks for feeling embarrassed for me so I don’t have to feel that way. You may not know it but you are providing a valuable service to me.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget just go to the store next time bro. quit yapping with bots on twitter. it's embarrassing

@AncientArgonaut Had to buy elsewhere. Crickets from target since they deleted their initial snarky replies.

@BuildingMyLEGOs Did Target reach out properly or did you have to go elsewhere to buy it?

The saga is over. The Naked Deku Tree has been returned, the refund is in, and my faith and humanity is . . . well it’s still under construction 🧱📉 Huge thanks to the nearly 7M of you who followed this chaos. Tomorrow at 2 PM EDT we start the REAL Deku Tree build live on Twitch

@stagdad @Target @AskTarget Yeah sending a tweet telling target I found their shipping to be unacceptable should probably guarantee me the Oscar for best actor in a drama. No other person has been this dramatic this year.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget you are so dramatic

@its_joshuajames The response I wanted was a positive one from target and target alone. And maybe the 2 followers I had at that time.

@BuildingMyLEGOs Simple question. Why did you not just call? Why was your immediate response, “Oh. Let’s take to social media!” You may not have asked for the tweet to get the views it did. But you certainly knew taking to social media would elicit some kind of response. Positive or negative.

@its_joshuajames Because I didn’t want to talk to some dude in India

@ij88HH @uWrongMeRight_ @ItsHeavensFeels @Target @AskTarget I didn’t make up target putting tape and shipping labels all over the box. It’s clearly shown right there in the original photo. Again there is now a video I posted in my second or third reply to the original post that shows one of the holes.

@uWrongMeRight_ @BuildingMyLEGOs @ItsHeavensFeels @Target @AskTarget It’s like he didn’t get the outcry he wanted, then made up the damage issue with the delivery. The hole in the box would have been the main point of complaint, I would’ve thought so why wouldn’t he put a picture up too if there was a hole.

@ij88HH @uWrongMeRight_ @ItsHeavensFeels @Target @AskTarget I didn’t want any outcry. I wanted target to address the issue. It was targets reply that made this go viral. If they hadn’t done what they did no one else would have ever seen this. I had 2 followers at that time and my original post was boring af

@ij88HH @ItsHeavensFeels @Target @AskTarget There is a video in a reply to the original post showing one of the holes. It’s like the 3rd reply.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @ItsHeavensFeels @Target @AskTarget What small holes? None in the picture. No small Lego pieces are loose in the box; they are always large pieces. So give over.

@JTMitchell87 @GamingInAlberta @Target @AskTarget And also many LEGO sets have free floating pieces in the box as well as bags.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @GamingInAlberta @Target @AskTarget They come in bags.

Redemption starts tomorrow. 🌲✨ No more naked shipping labels, just 2500 pieces of Zelda perfection. Live on Twitch tomorrow @ 2 PM EDT see you there! 🔗 twitch.tv/BuildingMyLEGOs

@residentevhill @Target @AskTarget At the time I made this order it was on back order on LEGO s website

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget Wouldn’t happen if we boycotted Target! Got my Deku tree from the Lego Store. 🤷

@dreamingwitchvt @Target @AskTarget I did the dungeons and dragons set a month or so ago and really enjoyed it.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget this discourse lame as fuck, what's your favorite lego set? Mine are the Lego Friends Community Center and the Apartment and Stores

@typesetjez @Target @AskTarget At the time I ordered it it was on back order on LEGO s website. It’s apparently back in stock there now tho.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget Unless you’re getting a significant discount elsewhere, I recommend buying from LEGO directly. All of their products ship in plain brown boxes. Also you earn more points and there are gifts with purchase

@PerkyBiscuits @Target @AskTarget No I returned it for a full refund and bought elsewhere. Since there were holes in the last box I was unsure if all the pieces were still there or not. I’ll be opening and building my new one tho.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget Lmao you're gonna open the box and build it

@OneUpKoopa @Target @AskTarget At the time I made the order it was in back order on Lego’s website. Apparently it’s back in stock there now tho.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget Why not get it directly from Lego?

@cr0bar @Target @AskTarget It was the snarky reply target sent that caused this to go viral that they deleted

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Target @AskTarget Next question is why are target deleting messages? 🤔 🎯

@honeybeejoli @happiHD @ftacc11 @CreamyShips @Target @AskTarget I am sure that after I opened the box and discovered pieces were in fact missing target wouldn’t have placed the blame on me for losing the parts after the box was opened or anything like that. They would definitely still accept responsibility at that time. Great point bro!

@happiHD @BuildingMyLEGOs @ftacc11 @CreamyShips @Target @AskTarget Right. There a manual inside that shows how many pieces there should be in the box, so he does have a way of knowing if everything’s in there lol

@The4thLupin @Tubbernaut @Target @AskTarget That’s great but i returned this for a full refund and bought elsewhere instead. It’s targets problem now and they can contact LEGO about any pieces that might be missing. I’m sure LEGO will be happy to help them.

@BuildingMyLEGOs @Tubbernaut @Target @AskTarget Lego is well-known for replacing missing parts.
