  1. More of a department store, not as wide ranging as Walmart. It's a decent price but I'm waiting for a toy sale. I want the lambo and dodge too, the wallet can only handle so much
  2. I'll admit that the lambo and ducati are my priorities going forward but I am very interested in the Osprey and if it looks the goods I can see it ending up in my possession
  3. Apparently it's hit the shelves in local Kmart stores in Australia already. $79 which I thought was a decent price all things considered
  4. I'm surprised by this also, we normally get screwed in Australia
  5. There's not a cover you can take off to display the engine bay?
  6. I'm sure there will be stickers. Maybe not on the exterior but I'm sure there will be some interior decal work required
  7. Glow in the dark lights would be nice little novelty touch and a point of difference from the previous supercars. I'd assume at the full release we'll see the wing doors in action
  8. If I was a reviewer I would have needed the set about a month ago I'm building the Mack at the moment and I'm probably about 3 weeks in now and I'm not finished
  9. Well the Bugatti box was a bit bigger than the Porsche box but that would come down to part count. With the Lambo having a similar part count I would suggest a similar size box. Whatever the size I'm going to need to find room to put it
  10. Well now the Ducati is out there, and now the Lamborghini is out (depending on who you believe) it's time to start looking for or waiting for new info and pictures of the Osprey
  11. Unless I missed it, we haven't seen much on the Osprey either. I'm interested to see what that one looks like also
  12. I've seen them at the Bathurst 12hr a few times. My favourite race car, so happy to see them finally get the win this year
  13. I'm happy to take it on face value that the leaked image is real until someone has rock solid evidence that it's not. All the design cues and knowledge we have of the set so far marry up pretty well to that image if you ask me so i'll just sit back and wait for any new info. I wanna see the doors in action
  14. You think it's fake just because it has new parts???
  15. Obviously the biggest difference in functionality over the Porsche and Bugatti is the way the doors open. So at least that's one point of difference to look forward to. I'll be interested to see how they achieve this given the emphasis on the visuals
  16. My thoughts now some light has been shed on the new beast. Listening to some peoples (hopefully minority) thoughts and complaints, which seems to happen when any new set comes out. Everybody knows the limitations of a lego technic piece yet when they see the model, they expect it to be the same as thing, instead complain of too many gaps, something not quite at the right angle etc etc etc. I get it and the are times when I would like things to be tweaked. I'm sure Lego could probably throw a couple hundred more pieces at it and iron out some of the bumps and gaps and then people would complain that they can't see inside or it costs more again. A lot of times it feels like the designers are on a hiding to nowhere. Me personally, I think it looks good and the colour is a good choice also (it's a very Lamborghini colour). I'm not sure if it'll be many MOCers first choice but that doesn't bother me. Like every set, some will love it, some will hate it. When 42056 was released I thought it looked ordinary, I only ended up getting one about 2yrs after release as I found it grew on me. Now I think it looks great. Does it have it's faults? Sure When 42083 was released my initial reaction was that it looked better than the Porsche, now I have them both on par with one another. Does it have it's faults? Sure Now 42115 my initial thoughts is it looks better again, so I can only imagine how good it's going to look to me a few years down the track. Will it have it's faults? Most likely So to sum up, Bring on 42115 in all it's bright green glory. At the end of the day unless I win the lotto this is as close to owning a Lambo as I'm going to get
  17. A question for anyone that has done the light mod to the more sensible round dish. What size are they? Are they 2 x 2, 3 x 3 or 4 x 4? Preferably in trans-yellow
  18. You could be onto something there. Dark green with gold wheels would look good
  19. I think it might have been mentioned before, but wouldn't the green from 42039 be a decent option? A. It would look good next to the orange of the Porsche and blue of the Bugatti B. It has the look of an outlandish Lambo colour C. It would look good matched to gold wheels
  20. The colour is not going to stop me from getting this set. In saying that, if it's the same colour as the Land Rover that will be a little disappointing. If for no other reason than as someone who has them displayed on a shelf next to the Bugatti, Porsche and Land Rover it will look a bit meh. Just to weigh in on the packaging debate, I can't see them moving away from what they've used for the other Supercars. And those two already use a "age rating" on those boxes
  21. Can't say that looks like an official LEGO teaser though
  22. This may be a dumb question but I'm going to ask it anyway Is there are release date yet?
  23. I feel like TLG are missing a chance here to drip feed some more info regarding the Osprey. I know the Ducati and Lambo grab the lions share of the headlines (and for good reason) but I think there are a lot of people that are interested in this set. I mean, I'm a car guy and I'm interested and will probably get one when it comes out. INFO PLEASE!!!!!!
  24. I do realise that it will be a standard Sian but hopefully that TLG take notice and keep in mind the potential of a convertable supercar. Somewhere down the line they could have either a powered or manual folding roof which I'm sure many technic fan would enjoy
