    Trying to move a couple of things so I can - would be great to meet some of you guys

    I would go if I had the opertunity and the costs were manageable, I'm lucky enough to be my own boss so I would go in the week, but I know I'm lucky. From a forum users perspective Ibyhink it would be great to have a friendly forum technic expert's unbiased opinion on the sets, I don't think timing before or after pictures is critical

    They is the London Toy Fair @ Olympia later this month, but is my memory serves me correctly there isn't any 2H stuff there from Lego, although didn't they have the Porsche in disguise or something last year?

    HNY to one and all

    I'm an adult to (apparently at the ripe old age of 36) but it doesn't stop me getting it for Christmas :-)

    Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you all got the Lego you wanted for Christmas! Yesteday evening the whole family got together and built the winter train - I thought that was my Christmas Lego fix! But no..... The man with the big white beard brought me the BWE :-) :-) He also brought the boss the Disney castle so looks like our afternoon is sorted.... I better not drink the Prossecco quite as fast! I hope you all have an amazing day.

    Lego S@H are on the ball, I ordered on Wednesday the ocean explorer, telehandler and container stacker choosing the free delivery abd they've just arrived - I'm in the UK and amazed - my little boy saw the pictures of the ship on here abd went wow (he's only 4) so that should keep us busy on Christmas Day :-)

    All 1H sets are now on UK S@H and in stock apart from 42066 Jet which isn't on there. so if you're willing go to pay £21 shipping that's your Christmas Day sorted :-)

    Do we know if Jim or anyone has got 42053/54/55/56 to review (basically the ones sariel hasn't got!!)

    A bit of a tricky one - I assume that you probably get a (paltry) income from youtube for getting so many hits (eurobruck is your advertising) and you get some sets sent to you by TLG which I also assume you get to keep, I also know by the time you've filmed, annotated and edited it each review probable takes the best part of ~6-7 hours - and the YouTube income and *free* Lego probably does cover your hourly rate or equivalent. So some people think this blokes getting a free ride, why support him more? (But probably base some purchase decisions on the reviews) and some people think great review now I'll save my money and give that one a miss/rush out and buy it (after checking with the boss of course). Sure some people have more funds than others (in both camps) but I'm guessing most the people on EB are grown up enough to value you a good review and judge if they think whatever whizzy but of kit (camera I think) you need to make they reviews better is worth a donation or a few Euros and if they don't or can't afford it keep quiet! I know for one reading your reviews which sets I am now going to get, and your reviews influenced me here - and the fact that (I think) you're going to buy the sets you weren't given so you can complete the reviews kind of proves your not on the out and out take - so I don't see any reason why you shouldn't set up some method of allowing people who want to help enhance you reviews make a contribution as long as you make it clear what it's for - bet it sets, camera, lights etc and let people know when done - maybe say if 50 people give 1 euro each I can buy the jet and review it etc? ramble over

    So do we still think 1H sets will be available on S@H in the uk tmr?

    Great review as ever also for a small set I think this is quite cool - I think my little ones will enjoy buzzing this around and like the way you spin the blades etc again this is a good set for technic beginners using some good rotation functions
  14. tgrbailey
    Seems like a fair review- it's a shame as they could have easily made a bit more of this. The city version coming out next year with s brush look like it might be a better option?
  15. tgrbailey
    Great reviews as ever :-) looking at at the pictures I think not, but are the containers compatible/interchangeable with 42052 heavy lift helicopter - would be cool but I guess the scale is not right either!
  16. tgrbailey
    All the above agreed - a great choice and it would be a shame not to see (and to set the standard) Milan's creations in the competitions.

    Lots of the new sets are listed on UK s@h now! i notice they're available 20th December, tight for Christmas Day or what! The jet, ocean explorer and container transport look great, I just can't help thinking they could have made more of the telehandler - but there all on my Christmas list now :-)
  18. tgrbailey
    These early releases are not in line with what we've seen recently (usually in fairly short supply until at least 1st Jan) - so fingers crossed they're are whetting our appitie, keeping secrets well and there is a lot more (quantity and quality) special 40th anniversary sets in the pipeline....
  19. tgrbailey
    Good spot - nothing on the UK site yet, I'd like the roadwork crew for my boy for Christmas
  20. tgrbailey
    This is happening on my iPhone also, and has been since the start ive tried clearing history etc and in private mode is starting to get quite irritating but don't like to moan :-)

    Need a better class of mole

    Trying to follow this years thread and last years to find out when we get some official press release from TLG - I'm hoping might be this week, looking back at last year we had a lot more info early on in August including this years 2H. I don't think there are any toy fairs coming up until after Christmas. Will we get anything official do you think or do we just wait to see what appears on 1st Jan??
  23. tgrbailey
    Doesn't look too bad for 1H - I'd get the ship, container lorry (with loader) and the telehandler I expect and probably the street working vehicles to build with my little one. The others don't look bad just not my kind of thing.
  24. tgrbailey
    So mad I missed out on one of these ! :-(
