My X Wing never turned up, so I contacted Amazon:

Amazon: Hi, sorry to hear about this. This for for the Lego X-Wing yeah?
Me: Yes
Amazon: Looks like it got captured by The Death Star..

Lol. Got a free month of Prime out of it

What's the deal with 42055 Bucket Wheel Excavator?

I got a mail from a Lego retailer selling it for €200 instead of €220 but I have no idea if this is a good deal or not considering it hasn't been realised yet :confused:

When is the official release date? It's not on the Lego store yet.
How have they even got hold of the product if it hasn't yet been released?

Official release date is the 3rd August, I think .... and 4th August for the 42054 Claas Xerion 5000.

Just got 42055 from Argos for £179.99 .... so £200 is slightly on the high side.

Both the new flagship models now up on the lego shop.

The Xerion looks brilliant.

Thx. They most definitely weren't there when I looked earlier!

Visiting in laws in Denmark, local supermarket chain has 35% off Lego.
42055 for £150, 42054 for £100. Seemed rude not to!

Raymond Lin · 30 Jul 2016 at 19:27

Really sucks Argos didn't have any more big rechnics set in their sale. Any of the £150 set would do!

Been busy building Lego elves sets with my kids this weekend. Great fun, quite impressed with the queen dragons rescue and the dragon sanctuary

Queen Dragons 1 foot long so I get the price now it's built.

Front end isn't finished!!!

mjt · 3 Aug 2016 at 13:53

LOL good spot!
FWIW, I didn't build it, my GF did

Although TBF I think they fell off when I was faffing with it the other day

pacegod · 3 Aug 2016 at 15:05

The front boot isn't correct where the join is, there's not meant to be a gap.

_Jimlad_ · 3 Aug 2016 at 15:35

Yeah I spotted that.

Better not let her near the Bucket Wheel Excavator then - that's a man's job

So...further proof should it be needed that women can't be trusted around lego!
