Wall-E price will double overnight I bet.
It must be the Licences that runs out for Wall-E and Big Bang, they are relatively new.

The Pet Shop and Wall-E are on my wishlist but can't afford to buy them at the moment
WALL-E is one of my favourite Lego sets. Great build and good value for money

There's a sale on at toys r us on the Lego, also saw the models/Minikits in the star Wars advent calender it's so tempting.
I told myself that the Porsche was way too expensive when it came out and I wouldn't buy it. But at £208 with shipping from amazon it's €100 under retail on this side of the Channel. €230 v €330 on Lego!
Go Brexit
The Porsche is stupidly overpriced for what it is anyway. I've seen it in the flesh and it's certainly an impressive set, but it just looks wrong. Lego isn't suited to rounded models and the Porsche is as round as it gets. On top of that, all the marvellous engineering gets hidden under the body so unless you've built it, it just looks like a Porsche with steering.
Such a shame.

)Already got the 24 hr racer. Waiting for the Fire Station to be on sale but I doubt it ever will. Pushing €400 over here
Yeah I agree. I doubt I'll build it. I'll just add it to the other sets collecting dust in their boxes bought at very good prices (Arocs, Bucketwheel Excavator, original Death Star).The Porsche is stupidly overpriced for what it is anyway.

Don't really feel like building them TBH. Need the Caterham ASAP though!
