***The Official OcUK Lego Thread***

Just called the Cardiff store to check the damn vip deal

Turns out

Can do it all in store on day - no need to redeem before that
Can use multiples
50+5+5 to get 60

Why is the info on website so poor !
 
Dissapointed at the most recent fan made set

There was winnie the pooh and some house thing chosen.

No shuttle, no thunderbird (probs licence related).
Lots of Dissapointed fans in the comments.

Buying many fewer sets recently I guess that's a good thing!
 
Latest couple of builds

Plus I have a backlog of alternative kits to build, first a few small Sembo cars; I was impressed with the quality of the 911 I did a few months back so ordered more.

Yeah this is from Mould King, quality of their stuff is fantastic and would say the motors/power functions are better than actual lego.

Search for a site called yourwobb, also plenty of sellers on Ali Express.

At least a silver lining to the teacher holiday, have dug out old lego models. Think some of the elastic bands have stretched, and the o-rings in the pneumatics are dead.

Tbh I didn't notice it until I posted it on here. In hindsight though there could be something to it as I don't think 1 of the models has remained unscathed today lol. He is only 3 so I kind of expect him to dismantle rather than fix, will be funny tomorrow as my Mrs doesnt work Monday and Tuesday and has no idea how to put them back together:D. I quite like the shuttle, but whI've the motor works it doesnt seem to move much which makes me think the elastic bands are no longer elastic, not bad though for ~20 year old sets. He does also like to 'pose' for the camera, I thought my 6 year old daughter might like to play with them (and fix them instead of me) but no luck. Technic is fairing a bit better, but it's not infallible, I'm going offemory where parts go rather than digging out the instructions. Also noticed on the bar code reader model (not sure if shown in that pic) the cable was down to the wire so I've binned the cable, it must have been trapped on something. I'm not sure the kids are that fussed about powering stuff up anyway, the first thing that my son said was 'what goes pew pew':p.

There’s a set based on Cherry Tree Lane from Mary Poppins that has gone to the May 2020 review. The set really does look great and I’d like to see it, but as with Thunderbirds, licensing could be a problem.
