    Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    Every year it amazes me what they think of and every year when I'm building it, I always have fun in the new or different techniques they use. And with all of the previous buildings, this will be a day one purchase for me.
  2. Ordered the Landspeeder, very curious!

    //Update Received the lighting kit from Game of Bricks today! Now to find time between building the Winter Village to install them... I've managed to install the lighting kit yesterday. At some points a bit fiddly, but overall good to do; Photo instructions were very clear in what you need to dismantle to install the various light strings. Quality of the parts are very good, Ali Express light kits are nothing in comparison! Here are two photos from the end result:

    Not quite finished yet, stern is currently in progress, but I like the build very very much! Not a lot of repetitive steps, except the ones you can expect, like the portholes. You can really see that they tried to make the build special, different techniques, intricate details and a joy to relax and build. even though it was mentioned in the various reviews, this ship is REALLY big. And sturdy, didn’t expect it to be structurally that rigid! When it is finished it gets lights and then a nice place on top of the cupboard in our living room.

    Even though I haven’t completed box one yet, i ordered the Game of Bricks light kit. When it arrives I’ll post my findings in this topic

    I received my set yesterday; probably a problem with DPD indeed. Up until Wednesday evening late the status on the Lego site and the DPD site was 'Order information has been transmitted to DPD' and Thursday morning it changed to on route and end of the morning the set was delivered...

    I think I muttered too soon... Just got an email from DPD saying they will deliver it today!

    My order is ‘shipped’ according to Lego since last Saturday, however DPD states on their website that only the label was created…. absolutely no idea now when to expect the set.

    Just regular shipping. Usually that gets me my sets with 3-4 days. Hopefully that that is the case now as well

    I’ve just seen that my set now actually has shipped, DPD site now has the shipping information and is currently ‘in transit’.

    Just saw that the status of my order changed from ‘processing’ to ‘warehouse’… Curious to see how long that takes, never had an order staying on processing for 5 days.

    Can imagine that being very frustrating... to be honest, seeing is believing here. I did got the email, but the status on the account page is still 'processing'. When that changes to 'shipped', I'll believe it's on its way.

    I had to wait for 10 minutes in a virtual queue this morning, but eventually was able to order one. Received the email confirmation a couple of hours later, so very excited! The order process mentioned that it would be shipped on the 8th of November, so fingers crossed that it will be.

    Seen the picture, can’t see any reason why this shouldn’t be real. what a set! Can’t wait to buy and build it…
