Lord Of Pies

It's even worse when they come here! My Lego is destroyed by pesky Nephews and curious uncles! What did I do today? Well.....I Did some chores round at my grandparents house to get some more money to spend on Lego! (It's funny how things seem to all tie in! )

I think he meant "it only charged..."

Same! This was my uncle's 70th birthday party, yet so many people came (30-40), I barely spoke to my uncle! We worked out the combined age of everyone their was about 2500. It was more like a SAGA outing. Luckily my grandparents live 5 minutes down the road so we visit them often.

I know! Unfortunately I did not buy any Lego. Shame really as I could have made a boring visit slightly more interesting. And yes, it is always boring! I only go down their 2/3 times a year so I can't complain really.

A great review, I like this set it captures the classic town feeling well, and the ladder is cool! I can't help but feel thought that these reviews are being churned out to quickly, you should leave a gap, I am being flooded with all these great reviews!

Ouch! I hope it doesn't impede your Lego building ability. Yesterday I had to visit relatives and friends all the way down in Southampton who I barely know, which was a bore-fest.

Hi welcome to EB, make sure you check the members guidelines, and all the blah blah. Enjoy your time here! ....or else....

Bah! I want Dr. Inferno to get his revenge for wave 2, hopefully involving some sort of double agent! I would personally like to see some add ons to the Volcano base too, like they did with Jabba's Palace sets a few years ago. Oh and some better guns. And pie.

Try "Argos" or "Woolworths" for Lego, their are bound to be a few of those stores in London.

I got this set for a discount price of £11.23 at Woolworths today!

A very good mod, I thought the helicopter looked a bit exposed without much of a cockpit, your mod makes itl ook much better. Plus it isn't that hard to achieve either, I may have to try this mod when I get this set eventually!

Thanks for the fantastic review of the Esso Petrol( ) station! I like this set, a nice contrast to the shell ones, it adds a bit of variety to a Lego town. The cowboy hat is a nice addition too.

I bought 8632 Swampy jaw face scooter attack ( or whatever its called ), a great set I have to say, I like the new figures, the jaw face figure is fantastic, especially when armed with a brickarms AK-47! And the set was only £11.23 from Woolies!

Bad news: There was not a single cloner war set in the Woolies I went to. Shame I may well ahve bought the gunship..

Bah! I couldn't go to Woolies today, hopefully I will go tomorrow though!

Welcome aboard, good to see more UK members here! You're right about the wet and windy bit, it is the middle of July and it is raining!

I am going to the Epsom branch of Woolworths (near Guildford) tomorrow I will see if their are any CW sets there. I am planning to get an agents set though so even if their are any clone war sets I probably wont get any.

I went to Chessington world of Adventures today, it was fun, although I was almost sick on one of the roller coasters! Let just say that sharp turns and double bacon with cheese burgers don't mix well....

The Gherkin tower would be interesting if it was sold by TLG. As for the current sets I like them, a good opportunity to start a mini city, their must be many combinations of towers that can be made with those bricks.

I would consider buying one - count me in!

I am so going to my local woolworths soon! The droid gunship looks great although at £35 it is a bit expensive!

I wish I had seen it.... Judging by the reactions it is a pretty good set!

You got lucky with the mark down! I like the look of swamp raid, but I am saving my money for volcano base!

Oh c'mon you can't be that lazy? I like the look of the droid gun ship, nice colours and it looks sufficiently detailed. Another droid or two would not go a miss though.

I break up for summer holidays on the 18th of July....only a few days to go! Not much happened yesterday, although I did build a helicopter out of Lego which I am proud of!
