So much for the UCS Snow Speeder being fragile, it survived being manhandled while getting wrapped in cling film

 

[Bipolar Kittens]

Oops, wasn’t supposed to go in upside down, kinda dropped it. But, still intact as far as I’m aware

That's a lot of wrapping ... Have you got a similar free space to display the lego in the new house?

 

[Bipolar Kittens]

Wrapping has been an absolute ball ache, but it’ll pay dividends when it comes to rebuilding.

It’s a smaller house but I’ll find somewhere to display it, I’ll most likely sacrifice the dinning room.

I really wish this thing was as easy to put back together as it is to take apart

If you send all your Lego to me I'll rebuild it .

My lad now approaching five has taken an interest in all things Lego so in addition to getting his hands on his sisters old Lego that she is no longer interested in I dug out some of the old stuff from when I was a kid (and also an older kid) which means a lot of sorting of kits to be done. In this pile alone there's stuff from the early 1980s and then some Star Wars bits from 2000...too many bricks!

too many bricks!

There's no such thing.

Now that is proper parenting, making him play in hard mode, the ONLY way to play with lego, none of this numbered bag rubbish. Let him experience the frustation and joy in finding that piece. And the pain of kneeling on 2x1, just the right size to get under the kneecap

I dont recognise the round red and grey bits in the top right picture. What are they from?

They look like stacked radar dishes...

New Hulkbuster has been announced, not sure about this one :/

At £119 its rather pricey IMO

That is amazing to see it like that, wish I'd got most of your collection..

 

[HoneyBadger]

@Bipolar Kittens - WOW! Just wow!

It looks so simple to to build when it’s like that, but my God it isn’t

Thanks

All packed and ready to go, well almost, I still need to wrap the Falcon’s and SSD, they’re coming with me in my car.

Can you guess which model I dropped on the floor? (Clue: it’s in pieces in the plastic crate)

Taj?
