lee1980 71 Posted May 24, 2015 I bought some off lego mini figures site some were cheaper or same as in shops and got to choose ones I wanted only got 4 for now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WillyChang 1812 Posted May 25, 2015 Yeah there's heaps of vendors... or Cracklink. Lego at 20-25% Off RRP is sweet. Recent CMFs I've been picking up at various outlets mainly to makeup enough minimum purchase so that I get free parking hehe. I'd rather buy a coupla CMFs rather than paying half or a third that to the shopping centre's parking fee... that's like buying Lego at 33-50% Off right??? DK Books have recently released a bunch of updated titles bearing new exclusive MFs too. Like white Boba Fett in the new SW Character Encyclopaedia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr crispy 2293 Posted May 27, 2015 I picked up one about 2 weeks ago from WHSmiths. Got it so my daughter would have something to make while we were waiting for her hospital appointment... of course it took her all of 10 seconds to put it together so didn't kill much time but ironically the mini-figure was Dr Hibbert [emoji6] 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GregM 1109 Posted July 9, 2015 There's a Lego Creator Ferrari F40 coming in August. I'm looking forward to it, but I'm curious what the average street price will be. Lego's suggested price of around 80 Euro seems a bit too high for my taste. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GregM 1109 Posted July 22, 2015 So I went to the LEGO store yesterday, saw the F40 on the shelve and couldn't resist anymore - I just had to get it! 89 Euro is a rather high price, but the cost might be due to that this set consists over 1000 parts and of course the Ferrari license. The build is very involving and satisfying. The car itself is a little bit smaller than one might expect - at that price point you'd expect a 1/10 scale car (similar to the Technic supercars), but it is rather 1/12 scale or smaller. But oh man, it is stuffed with bricks and so many nice details like the opening front and rear hatch, opening doors, pop-up headlights and even the motor is removeable. So great! I don't know if this set will be available as a regular release in August. I was only able to buy it this early with a (free) LEGO VIP subscription. There's no mention of it in the LEGO catalogue for July - December 2015, so I guess it might be a limited release only available online and in special stores? Let's hope there will be a regular release so the price could come down a bit. Here's a review by Jang: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lee1980 71 Posted July 23, 2015 I got the lego birds set http://shop.lego.com/en-GB/Birds-21301 that was on the lego tv programme other week must be popular as sold out again!! The Ferrari is amazing! says coming 1st Aug on UK lego store £69.99 so tempting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chriss76 91 Posted July 24, 2015 Really trying to not get back into Lego myself but the latest technic set due to be released are really drawing my attention. Luckily they are around the same price as most tamiya re-res so I don't think I'll be buying any soon. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisRx718 4464 Posted July 24, 2015 Hmmm thinking about the F40 for a birthday present to myself...but I also want a Smartwatch. The former will get built and I'll get told off for bringing in more clutter, whereas the latter will hopefully encourage me to get up off my backside and lose some weight... Lego F40 it is then! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StrokerBoy 772 Posted July 25, 2015 I was in the Lego shop in the Trafford Centre today. Managed to leave with only a £30 hit on my credit card. Considering my lego-addict missus was with me, that's a result. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
