Lucky them!

Bit the bullet and bought the Bucket Wheel Excavator. Have a bit of buyers remorse for spending over £130 on Lego though

£130 is cheap... wait until you start buying some of the bigger / licensed sets

For all those with the Saturn V, what do you think of this:

https://ideas.lego.com/projects/0f8efc2a-ce0a-4285-9f2b-036bf3eb9f38

Personally, if it ever sees the light of day, I would get one if it was reasonably priced.

Its a good idea but it needs the side launch/gantry tower to make it worthwhile and hence couple it with the Saturn V - its a little too basic by itself. Only downside is that'll be expensive due to numerous parts and would be very tall.

Lego could do a whole NASA range perhaps including the Space Shuttle, Hubble Space Telescope or International Space Station. I think some of these have been submitted Lego ideas before.

£130 well spent! I have this set and it took me AGES to build and is a excellent bit of kit once its together.

Yodel doesnt give me the house address, only "15:54 Your parcel has been delivered (Middleton home delivery)"

Oh well.

How on earth did I not notice the Saturn V piece count until now. Brilliance!

By any chance, does anyone have or can get some Sainsburys Lego card collection albums?

My missus and her work colleagues have got 5 complete collections for their kids but can't get any books as everywhere is sold out.

Picked up a wee present for myself yesterday, bought the Brick Bank modular, the new orange McLaren Speed Champions car, a 4x4 and caravan city set in Asda reduced from £20 to £10, and finally 2 Minifig packets that turned out to be Corn-man and Rocket-man. Good times, thats my weekend sorted!

Also built my Saturn V rocket. Picked mine up at Legoland Billund 3 weeks ago on early release, they had an absolute mountain of them and all the kids were just walking straight past it without giving it a second glance...I was straight in there of course wondering if I should buy 2 or 3!

Any chance you can grab 5 for me? Will obviously send you cash and whatever postage is.
