What a beautiful building...

That is incredible... love it.

I really like this... just wish it had a 'Bank' sign and then it would be perfect... :)

Wow, that is an amazing train. Just beautiful...

Awesome review ! Love the humour, love the pictures, the contrast and just.. the wit ! Oh, and the set's great too !

Wonderful review and a stunning set. This is a must have set !

That is phenomenal !

Brilliant...

Love it... looks great !

I really like this ship - I was very lucky and have the 'correct' captain's head and no gap (although luck shouldn't really have to play a part). I did find the single sided sail disappointing, but apart from that, I am very happy with the simple aesthetic appeal of my pirate ship...

I am also thinking about bricklinking the Imperial Flagship and may also look at brickowl.com (thank you Stuart). I would be interested in any tips that anyone had or pictures anyone had of a completed IF Edit: Just had another look at Brickowl.com and there is a feature I absolutely love (bearing in mind I am from Aussie Land and want to keep the shipping down). This may help others (or be redundant, depending on your knowledge of buying.. mine is relatively low). However, once I created a wishlist on Brickowl.com (I checked the inventory against the lego pdf - I did this in both Bricklink and Brickowl) - then when I click on a store - beside the store it gave me the number of items in each store that was on my wishlist - then by modifying future wishlists etc - I hope to reduce the postage costs. I just found this to be a handy mechanism... (I know I can go into each store on bricklink and click on the in my wishlist feature - but found it clunkier and harder to navigate - but it is also there if that site is your preference.... Please feel free to ignore if the information is already known... :)

Had absolutely NO intention of getting this... but the great review.. may just have changed my mind !!!

I have purchased a few sets from ebay - all have been perfect - one was missing two parts (which they distinctly mentioned in their advertisement) - the two sets from bricklink, however, although in lovely condition, had more items missing than advertised. The issue I have had with ebay lately, is two sales (one did not go through as ebay contacted me, and another where I received reimbursement from paypal) which were fraudulent. The buyer's account in both cases had been 'hacked' and someone else was using accounts that had a 2 figure feedback and where they had not been online for over 6 months. One, in retrospect was rather obvious - the second one however, was not and the 'seller' even contacted me.. so an interesting experience. Both these items were advertised as new in box... so I have had much better luck with the 'used'.

I was unable to purchase the fairground mixer online at David Jones - but called the Elizabeth Street Store directly and was able to purchase that way... handy if you cannot get to a store... :)
