Of course I meant prints Oops...

Yeah, I know and I absolutely agree. But themes seem to get a certain quota/quotum. This goes for stickers (edit: prints) as well.

Probably a storage issue. They simply don't have the capacity to store so many different parts/colors. We have seen this happen quite often in the past.

Lol, that's harsh

I suddenly realized something…jf.otten the (online) shop does have a striking resemblance to your name What’s the bad news? The price?

Yup. Lots of news. We are discussing it in a super secret forum

I already purchased that one. Still in the box. I need to start building more

Absolutely. I thought I saw 249 euro, which is pretty steep. I am aiming at around 149 euro to pick this one up.

Agreed on all counts. Definitely an interesting set. Not 250 euro's interesting though, so I will wait for a nice deal.

If it's a new part, TLG tends to include it in multiple new sets, whether it's the best solution or not.

Exactly my thoughts. Was wondering the same thing.

Hmmm that is weird indeed. I will remove the assignment part from the quote.

So you didn't create the post with the book? Have you changed your EB password in the meantime? Because it seems someone got your credentials and created the topic.

How can I be sure you wrote this message?!?! Just kidding of course. Do you have link to what you are referring to?

We will probably go for Truck or Car, so an American Truck will fit nicely. Any other things we need to define or address?

Yes, yes and yes

For the wallet, it's better not to get a new 500+ euro set this year I will probably get the last four sets in the list, which will boil down to 700 odd euros. That's enough for this year

Sorry to disappoint you. McLaren is also mentioned with question marks

LoL

I would be very surprised if it's gonna be something else than a (regular) purple McLaren. That being said; we are back to speculation again, so be careful the Admin won't come in and warn us

Like @Ngoc Nguyen said, we will leave that for another contest. But maybe we can turn it into a generic "9 wide build" contest, so cars, helicopters, bikes etc can be built too. Although bikes can become big, even with a 9 wide limit. So maybe trucks and cars.

Hehe Actually, I was thinking about Truck and/or build something using these tires, but I am not sure the scale will be too ambitious for 5 weeks: https://brickset.com/parts/6055626/tyre-49-53x20-truck

Can you read my mind?! LoL

We can run another contest starting next week. This allows for five weeks of building. Since time is somewhat limited it needs to be a small-ish contest. I have some things in mind, but I like to hear what is feasible within a five week period.
