I missed that also, assumed you'd bought the lego game on offer.

Dont worry, I've only just realised it too.

thanks for all the congrats guys, Twins was a real shock

19 months of twin boys later and it's still a complete shock for me too! Good luck, and start getting your rest now.

That's gorgeous. I'm very jealous!!

 

[Buffman]

Holy moly very nice house! (whereabouts?)

 

[crinkleshoes]

It is rather pretty

It's in a village called Saint-Amarin, about 45-50 minutes from the Swiss border.

Phew! Thank goodness we got that all straightened out

Got some lifting straps in the mail today, so I can lift moar without losing my grip and breaking the floor or myself.

Got those myself but don't think they will work out, the padding is fat to long so the loop doesn't get to close tightly, and the "grip" on it makes ones handed wrapping and tightening a real pain.

That house is great.

Genuine question what do grown men do with toys ?

I don't get it

 

[Hyburnate]

I'm guessing they go on display

I don't get it

Wut men grow up??

I'm guessing they go on display

Put them on display, think of them as decorative.

If I had the space and money I would probably have a proper media room and have a lot of such models on display
Some of the larger models are much more like mini statues and very highly detailed (especially some of the Japanese ones which can be true scale and have virtually every detail from the films, designed using the original film schematics/drawings and computer models).

 

[pepp77]

Same difference as putting a vase with flowers, or a statue of a horse up, except these are more akin to things we actually like than things people perceive as normal.

 

[easyrider]

Oh right cool cheers for that...

So I guess a post your displays thread is in order....I need educating.
