I don't like either model to be honest. The helicopter is not too bad, but flying vehicles aren't my thing anyway... The backhoe's proportions don't seem correct to me, the bucket on the back is too small, the roof is too low, the front lift arm looks wrong somehow, and the wheels are too chunky. Yes, I know, I'm a picky, but I can't help it It's not final, so we'll see what the final model will look like.

I agree, the intructions are getting too easy lately. What's the reason for this, anyone know? Is it maybe because they don't want to put off kids of LEGO as they might think it's too difficult? I think it's nice when the instructions are challenging.

LOL @ minifigs on the roof! I like your MOC, looks very good and it's a good idea. The stairs need some work.

I'm pleasantly surprised by these pictures, I'll probably buy this theme.

Agreed, highly recommended!

Hope this is going to be a great new theme.

If there are no barcodes, it's probably best to buy a whole box and share the cost between mates. In this series there's not one figure I would like to get multiples of to be honest, unlike the spartan, zombie and forestman from previous series.

Wow that's great! There's so much to look at, I really like the way the car and bike fit in the garages, perfect scale. Only criticism I would give, is for the rear walls, the sections of tan and white don't make much sense to me. Keep up the good job!

That's great, wanna make the entire movie like that? I suppose you'll need to get more spartans...

That set looks like it's almost mint condition. I hardly see any wear on that box, pieces look new as well, and this set has the instructions, the ones on bricklink don't. So I guess it's worth a lot more than $150! I'd say $300 or $350

Maybe because there were only 2 left? Have you tried to buy any other item 3 times?

Maybe they should put some more toilets in there.

Hehe, yeah I'll buy a house for $4K

LEGO is right in saying some people get confused with clone brands. My mum bought me some Mega*****s from a bootsale and thought it was real LEGO. She wasn't aware such a thing existed! It didn't cost so much, but still that money was wasted...

I'm just waiting for the super car, not one came out since I got back into LEGO, so I'm really looking forward to it.

Can't wait to see pictures. The mummies will go well with the pharoa!

Maybe Hagrid couldn't pay his mortgage anymore and downsized to this hut? Anyway, good first effort, shouldn't be too hard to improve once you manage to get the right pieces.

Thanks for the tip. I've bought two 5893 Offroad Power (creator) and one 7945 Fire Station.

Looking forward to "8070 Super Car 109,99€" !

I'd be very interested to see some more info/history/philosophy of TLC. The idea about collection, preservation etc sounds good as well, as I collect mostly (not so much MOC'ing). -Marky

I'd never melt LEGO, that looks horrible. Perhaps a megablok fan would like it?

We'll have to wait and see what's gonna happen. Maybe we'll get a statement from TLG concerning this matter? I hope the prices in Europe will drop, it's getting a bit silly now to be honest. I doubt TLG will reduce the quality of the bricks at all to make it cheaper, loads of people will start buying clone brands, as I believe the high quality is the reason why people stick with real LEGO.

That's a great MOC, very original.

When I was young, my best friend had loads of playmobil. I quite liked it, everything is ready straight out of the box, the vehicles are quite big, but the figures look a bit odd. I remember he had a fire truck with loads of accessories, much more than LEGO had at the time.

Simply amazing!
