AliExpress.
I have done and still do buy a mountain of kits from Lego although some of these other brands (not just those that do knock offs of Lego kit) make some fantastic sets that are a lot more interesting the some of the recent Lego offerings.The fella who comes around with a bag of dvds?
Was just a joke, it wasn't meant as any form of disrespect.

Panama Canal. Education series.
Got it for Xmas for the missus. She finally got round to building it.
Now keep in mind that I work with ex Captains, Chief Engineers and Naval Architects (missus is one) and you can i imagine how much this working model has been played with by grown adults.
Of course, then story time starts which is always amusing....

I tried that first (sorry had to look up which number it is lol). I even offered to help build it and helpfully store it in a glass coffee table but she was having none of it. I really want the falcon but I fear it would end up with divorce and no kids, but on the bright side is have plenty of time to build the falconNo you want buy him the lego 75192 set for his 3rd birthday
.I know it's 7 plus but I'm sure he'll be fine once I've built it and he really does love batman.

Wow that's pretty awesome!

Ok that is legitimately brilliant. Now I need a second bucket wheel excavator. I've one in a box unopened for 2 years this might be the kick I need to build it.
you'll need a third if you want to build both the GBC's

How have I not seen this before? That is properly epic!
I’ve never really liked the Bucket Wheel Excavator, bit of an eye sore on the shelf. I think I’m going to pull the trigger on this
Which one you going for?
The mining plant https://pv-productions.com/product/lego-gbc-15-42055-building-instructions/
or
the mine factory https://pv-productions.com/product/lego-gbc-21-42055-building-instructions/

Is it bad I knew exactly what that was without Google
They both look good, the set for the new crane is pretty. Nice as well. I would suggest reinforcing certain elements though, there is a lot of vibration. Obviously they wanted to achieve just with parts from one set, but most of us have extra bits. A combination of all the sets would look awesome.
Perfectly normal and healthy... though perhaps not for the bank balance

I went for the mine factory.
I started dismantling the Bucket Wheel Excavator last night and I'd forgotten how much of a chore Technic Lego is to take apart, my fingers are sore this morning.
