    10218 Pet Shop

    Yeah really like it with the doors together. On your pohs tep (pet shop reversed) is there any reason the LEGO sign starts right on the left with no white border? D

    LEGO Store "Build a Minifigure"

    When I was last in Legoland Windsor they seemed to have a good selection of minifig parts, and it's far better organised and tidier than the Lego stores I've seen as they have someone manning it the whole time. The reason we didn't get any though was that they do not have accessories! So it is £4.99 for 3 minifigs (legs, torso, head, hat/hair) but no accessory so you are paying more than the Lego store but for less parts. There was no chance of being able to make it up with extra hats or anything as it wasn't that they had run out of accessories, they don't do them so 12 parts is standard not 15. I hope that makes sense I felt myself waffling a bit. We are probably going to Legoland again on Friday so I'll check to see if things are still the same. D

    Really... What about here D
  5. Hi I don't have a massive Bricklink store, just a few Star Wars, Castle and Town sets with a few key rings. I've just reduced everything by 10% as it is just sitting there and that is doing me no good. I'll also do free UK postage for Eurobricks members, just order as usual but put your Eurobricks name in the message Dazmundo's Bricks D

    Lucky LEGO finds

    I was at the Enfield Pageant today (It's a car show) and amongst all the old car parts I came across 3804 - Mindstorms Robotic Invention I asked the price and when told it was £10 I decided it would be wrong not to buy it! Just been through the inventory on Bricklink, and apart from a few minor bits, it is all there. Not tested it with the computer yet but things are looking good, it looks like a well looked after kit!

    5 Figures for sale

    Correct me if I'm wrong but these are the FREE sets from the Sun last week? D
  9. Actually I think it has more to do with the greedy customers! I was speaking to WHSmiths staff who told me people were queueing up before the store opened in the morning and then buying up to 20 copies of the Sun to get the Lego, I would imagine alot of those sets will be heading to Ebay or Bricklink. Just greed!! D
  10. Got to WHSmiths at 11am today (I'm a teacher so can't go at opening time, but I had a free period as Yr11 are on study leave so I nipped out) They had signs everywhere saying that they had already run out. I got talking to a member of staff and appartently they have been having to open early with 4 tills going to cope with the queue of people outside waiting for the Lego, some buying 10 sets!! I decided to buy my paper anyway and when I got to the till I was very suprised when the assistant said they had run out of todays but the had some extra of SUNDAY's and I could have one of those instead. So I have now missed Wed, Thur & Fri. Not impressed I got the mirror sets with no problem at all but everyone is running out of these sets very early on in the day! D
  11. I don't know what those sets are?? D
  12. Maybe that's why there wasn't one left for me D
  13. Went to WHSmiths today at the same time as I've been going all week and they had run out of todays and yesterdays so that is two I've missed. Gutted as they have had loads of spares all week D

    LEGO from a gumball machine?

    Putting the CMF's in gumball machines does do exactly what TLC wanted in that it is totally random what you get, no reading bar codes or feeling the packets. D
  15. Gutted I couldn't get to WHSmiths or TRU today so I've got to hope that they have some of todays left tomorrow. They have had all week so I'm hopeful! D

    2011 Kingdoms + US prices

    Not only horse racing, they are common on heavy horses pullying drays Which I guess is similar to the horse in this set, a working horse! D
  17. Second day on the run WHSmiths had run out of papers but still had the Lego, so I got todays (and a spare from yesterday) without having to buy the paper :) Tomorrow will be the issue as I am going to struggle to get to a WHSmiths D

    Themes, do you dabble?

    When I was younger I mainly had Town & Castle sets, Castle was my main theme at the time and at the time of the Black Falcons I had every set apart from one! Since restarting buying Lego recently my original thought was to extend my Castle collection with the new Kingdoms sets, but since buying the Grand Emporium and Winter Toy Shop I am leaning towards building a City with Trains so we shall see how it goes, it will definately be dependant on funds!! D
  19. Went into WHSmiths this evening to try to get my set, was gutted when the assistant said they had run out of papers, but was then shocked when she said they had plenty of Lego left though! So I got todays set (and she gave me a spare from Sat, they didn't have any of yesterdays left) for absolutely nothing!! D
  20. I'm really annoyed with myself, went into an empty WHSmiths at about 1:30pm today and picked up my paper and polybag no problem, said to the guy that I was afraid they would have run out as they did with the Mirror last time but he informed me they had loads! It never occured to me that other people would be finding them so hard to get! I'm going to try going in again tomorrow and see if I can convince them to give me some of todays. Was in Scotland when the Mirror was doing their offer last time and there was a little Coop in the village we were staying in and they were happy to give you what ever sets they had, got 2 or 3 on a couple of days! D

    Do you "correct" sets as you build?

    I actually 'corrected' the Grand Emporium! All I did was add a turn table to the top of the billboard so that I could angle it so it looks a bit better where it is displayed D

    If you had LEGO as a child...

    How odd, this was one of my favourite sets, I didn't know he had had his truck resprayed! D

    Seeking advice on army building

    That is very odd as I did the search then added the link The more recent themes Battle Packs are not too badly priced, but you are right buying minifigs of any type is never cheap! D

    Seeking advice on army building

    I'd be looking at the Battle Packs if I were you Battle Packs An easy way to build an army quickly D
