I want that but not available and just seen on ebay for £120! Wife would def divorce me if I bought that

Think it was a very controversial "vip points redeem" thing or something.
As in loads of people wanted it and website kept crashing if I remember. I think it was so bad they did another round and I got it in round 2.

Tbought about selling mine but it's so cute I decided to keep it.

Hence only just building it now!

Damn, I’d be tempted to sell mine for £120.

Ordered Tudor Corner & Pre ordered the Williams FW14B last night.

Still trying to catch up on building. Got Jazz Club & Boutique Hotel still to build.
My row of modulars looks really good, although the 3 above will complete the shelf. Its over 3m long and won`t take anymore.

Bought the mrs some lego roses

She got the lego orchid from her brother at Christmas, so I thought I'd add (and we normally have some flowers around).

Just need to add the snow speeder:

Have you guys seen this set in the brinklink designer program??

I've set a reminder for the date to grab one. It looks unbelievably good!

That does look very nice!

So I've just listed our retired LOTR / Hobbit collection for sale and had loads of interest and sales so far, using prices from Bricklist and Brickeconomy, made about $10k (NZ) on what originally would have cost about $3k at retail!

Looking to invest that back into Lego, as well as buy some architecture to actually build. Notre Dame and Trevi fountain are definites, what else would you look at for a challenging but fun, and true to life build in the Architecture range? I was thinking about the Botanic garden too. Also, what pieces would be good for a 10 year investment?

Here's the collection for those who would like to see what was there...

Just saw this, would love it but too many non lego things on my wishlist and definitely no where to put it .

Edited for incompetence and too correcting as took (I blame the LoTR talk).

I better not show my wife this, she'll be asking for it no doubt

 

[b0rn2sk8]

I saw it, I like it but I’m not going to buy it.

What will she say when you tell her never mind the height but that it is 42" long. She'll have you on a shelf instead.

She'll probably have more fun handling something that size, I'll end up in the box not on the shelf

My Williams FW14B has been dispatched and will be with me tomorrow.

My Williams FW14B has been dispatched and will be with me tomorrow.

Mine arrived Saturday. I got 2 as I really wanted to keep one unopened but I knew I wouldn’t be able to not build it. I managed to resist building it until Sunday evening.

Really enjoyed the build. Some great bits, I like how the wishbones give a bit of suspension bounce. Really love how the floor comes together too. The finished model looks great!

My son is looking for a Technics set, up to around £250, does anyone have a recommendation for a good set to build? Think he'd prefer a car of some kind, thank you.

You cannot build the Williams without buying the after market replacement stickers. Something like this….

You could probably get him two of the F1 cars for that, or a good deal on the Chiron or Sian. But looking at prices of the Super cars they're all just over £300.
