I wonder if it would wall mount?

Probably, just use super glue ?!

I wonder if it would wall mount?

That would be my plan!
Thinking of 3d design and printing a solution.

I've decided I want it.

Maybe a good GWP will come with it

Dimensions – Measures over 6 in. (15 cm) high, 41.5 in. (105 cm) long and 17 in. (43 cm) wide

Um... 1m??

Bajesus!

My only gripe is the stand. Maybe because I'm used to the larger UCS stands.

Gonna wall mount mine I think. There's no where a 1m by 0.45m object can go!

Yea that stand does look a bit small. Could maybe lash up a more sturdy one that could bolt to a wall?

This is an option!


So the saturn v is 100cm..so it's even taller than that. I'm looking at my saturn v now.. Its not so bad as its so narrow and sits naturally vertical.. Great. Tiny footprint.

Concorde.... Um...

I’ve got my Saturn V wall mounted on a wicked bricks stand. Works really well and keeps it out of the way or from getting knocked over.

I’m sure they’ll whip up a wall mount for this in no time.

Mine sits on my desk. It takes up the space of a mug. But the concorde.. It'd wipe out 1/3 of my desk space on that.

Shuttle is just narrow enough to go on a shelf.. But that concorde? No way

 

[Raymond Lin]

You need to wall mount it on the wall ideally but at that angle is not an ideal angle to appreciate the plane. The best angle is slightly down under it with the nose down.

Haven't bought any Lego sets for about 4 years now, but have an urge to build something that would make a good display piece. Looking at the Titanic ( it's expensive, but looks amazing ) and the R2-D2 model. Any recommendations ? For reference, in the past I have built several of the Star Wars UCS models ( X-wing, Slave 1, Snowspeeder, Millenium Falcon, Tie Fighter ) and a whole bunch of Technic models eg. Porsche 911 GT3, Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes Benz Arocs.

Concorde a definite buy. My grandad once went to Washington for a 2 hour meeting and back the same day.

The Ideas Insects have just been shown today as well, they look ok, though no ladybug or Bee

I have pre allocated a spot for the concorde!

That’s a big hat.

That’s a big hat.

You never know, as a fashion statement it might take off.

This is fate.

Haby birtdoy to me!

I have bought 100s of lego sets in the past, and maybe once or twice I've had a part damaged or missing, but my other half opened up one of the set's I got her earlier this year and it had a whole bag missing. Box was sealed with no signs of it being damaged, its maybe to late to go back to wherever I bought it from or to contact lego about it.
