Here's another version: http://brickbadger.com/
Yay
Did you have to send proof or did you just send them an email?
Just raised a ticket via their web portal
42009 - Mobile Crane MK II
42042 - Crawler Crane
On another note, had a browse around for the Millenium Falcon UCS version, found a site where you could buy the Build Plans for it, lowest price was 399 EURO for it !
I have the Mobile Crane. It's a great build IMO.
Crawler Crane will be a buy at some point.
399 Euros just for the plans? I downloaded a PDF version for mine. I'm close to finishing but I've missed a few parts when ordering.
I think I prefer Technic to anything else. The Falcon has been a good build but at times it's felt a right nut-ache to complete. In some ways it's like the person that hasn't touched Lego since childhood, buys the biggest set in the shop, spends a month building it.....and never touches Lego again.

Are there any sites which will recreate retired products from their individual parts? I know you can sit and enter all the numbers into the brick sites and come out with something, just wondering if there's a quicker and cheaper way? Would quite like the modular buildings, but the retired ones are obscenely priced, but I'm not that bothered about the box, and you can get teh instructions online.

Yeah, found the PDF too. Been randomly checking some parts and although most seems resonable there is a couple, like the yellow 4x4 90 degree corner piece, 16pcs of those cost a smaller fortune
(Item no 4257699). The total cost for those 16 is roughly 1500SEK, compared with the Crawler Crane which has a price of 1300SEK. Not checked postage and such though but seems like those I randomly checked was all from different places so if one would try and build the MF through BrickLink the postage might be a killer. Or what did you use to obtain all the different pcs ??I just sent them an email via their support page, hopefully I should get a reply, thanks for that.

Rey's Speeder is on offer for £14.98 from that rainforest shop. Figured what the hell, bought
That is one of my favourite small sets.
My Christmas haul: (A bit of a mix i know! 
)
Along with the latest Millenium Falcon not in the picture.
My wife is a bit of a Facebay fanatic and i've told her that if she sees any lego come up to snap it up for me. I love the old pirate ships and this little 80's ship along with the new one will go well together with my Skulls Eye Schooner and Pirate bay. The Indiana Jones set had to be bought purely because its Indian Jones, i havent got the minifig of him and the plane will go well with my other planes.

Do Lego still make boats that actually float on water? I remember some of them did.
