I was thinking hundreds of thousands but not that much. Did you ask about cashback or VIP points

Lol. They gave me a lovely scale model version which is about a metre tall. Oh and they painted it in our required colours as part of the deal. Woop.

I keep thinking of buying it but then I stop and think I don't know if I like it :confused:

also the price of it makes it one of them items you pickup of the shelf and look at the price and then put it back on the shelf

Did you not even try to get free Lego out of them? I’m sure they must have a few sets knocking about as part of the licensing agreement

This thread seems to of gone a bit quiet...
Has no one bought any of the new lego sets ?

I see that the new lego Liebherr digger has already dropped £15 in price on amazon
Now £385 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product...c16-d4b886747c64&pf_rd_r=5Y28XSCAFHF59KG2NMRG

I would expect to see that one down to £300 or under at some point on Amazon/Argos/Smyths. I wouldn’t get too excited by £15 off a £400 set. I remember picking up the Porsche for 40-50% off not long after release.

No interest in any of the recent sets at all
The liebherr doesn't really suit me

Still getting over the massive Dissapointment of the imperial destroyer

Yeah but you're only interested in sets you can put in a loft for 15 years and sell for more than you paid

Anyone previously purchased Blocks magazine and receive a copy of issue 61 out of the blue this week?

I only bought issue 1 and maybe a second but today I got issue 61 in the post.. a rather pleasant surprise.

Sauce?
There was a site which had it for mega discount a few weeks ago but they didn’t ship outside DE.

b0rn2sk8 · 24 Oct 2019 at 22:48

Amazon I’m guessing, they have dynamic pricing so it can change by the minute, doubt it’s this price anymore.

The crane is tempting at half price but it’s so big any I don’t have anywhere for it.

320 at CostCo. Gotta factor in an extra 15 quid for membership mind.

I finally finished my Lunar Lander tonight, just been doing a few parts a night so it's taken me a few weeks. It's the first Lego set I've made in at least 20 years and I'm really impressed with it, the detail is amazing. Just need to get myself the Saturn V now..
