From want i been reading the standard packaging is the lego box is inside a standard brown cardboard box where the reduced packaged is just the shipping label struck on the lego box or the lego box is just in a plastic bag

Ive had that not out of choice! My Philips air purifier filter came this week just with a label stuck on the Philips box. I remember buying a Lego Crane and that too had the label stuck in the box. The Instant Pot as well came without Amazon packaging. They do this often when the item is too large for their packaging.

A couple of recent builds, firstly the Lego 10283 NASA Shuttle

And then a Sembo SY 8413 Porsche 917

Now doing the UCS Echo-1.

No pics loading for me. I'm wondering what the star wars models will be for the year, if getting more and more tempted by the ucs star destroyer.

I'm at the exact same spot and have been for about 2 weeks. Keep putting off the next bag because that's when the stickers start...

I had two pages of stickers with the Ferrari 488 so will plough with this lot.

Working fine for me. You tried another browser ? It sometimes happens for me on Firefox I can't see some pictures or embedded tweets but most times it works in another browser.

A couple of links from imgbb instead, nothing new with the shuttle as everyone has seen that kit before but the Sembo was pretty decent, can also be made fully RC if needed.

I have all those 4 as well, although only built two of them so far. Since you custom made it to fit them, mind posting a picture ?

I actually want to get leds for this unit. But not got round to it.

Light isn't great for pics right now!

Just noticed I need to line them up better!

I'd love the big Titanic model but $ much better spent elsewhere sadly.

If you guys can watch the Australian Lego Masters show (had several seasons and all are online) it's really fun and entertaining. Great family show.

Here's a link to the episodes https://www.9now.com.au/lego-masters/season-1
Not sure if you'll need a VPN - hopefully not.

Enjoy binging!

Lego Masters Series 2 just finished on Channel 4 so probably on All4. And I agree very entertaining easy family fun.

 

[b0rn2sk8]

It’s on all 4 so no VPN needed. As is the U.K. show and season one of the US show.

Didn't know there was a UK version, need to check that out thx.

 

[b0rn2sk8]

The U.K. version was the first one and you might find it a little flat compared to the US and AU versions. They really ramped it up l for those.

UK one feels more like a kids program and they had a lot of kids participating. It was clearly a lot lower budget too.

Having watched this, I'm seriously considering getting the lego down from the attic.

Apparently, a Lipo battery mod is something I need to look into...

All done now but beware the white paddock stand for the rear tyre which you build at the end. The bike is quite unstable on it and whilst trying all the positions for it the bike chain got caught on it, snapped open and slid out of the gearbox/engine housing. I can't see any way of getting the chain back on without taking the whole thing apart. Very disappointing after all the effort that has gone into the build so now on display with the chain on the rear wheel missing.
