took a road hero. then took my hook and haul wrecker. took out the hook piece out of my wrecker and into the road hero. miniature tow truck! not much MOCing but it really changes makes the road hero more "macho".

i wish they did! my gf's giving me a set this christmas, hopefully, the scuderia ferrari truck set (the big one) :D

can't wait to get my hands on that mach 5! :D

closer to the batman begins version. me likey likey *wub*

maybe ferrari is already asking too much for its license. i like the miniscale sets though to go with my road hero and terrain crusher. that enzo is hot! way much better than the supercars they released in the past. i hope they also make a 1:24 F2007, kimi FTW!

hopefully, il be getting the scuderia truck set, the mini version i would like to get as well. *wishing that someone would get me the UCS Batmobile*

so far, my 2 worst did not buy stories happened at the same time. local retailers don't carry some sets, like the scuderia truck and the creator cool cars set. when i had the chance to buy them at our duty free mall, i opted for the ferrari fuel stop instead, since i thought it was the only one i could afford that time, and stores outside did not carry it as well. too bad you can only shop at the duty free mall if you are with someone who just came back to the country. still waiting for that someone :( hope stock did not run out, especially now it's christmas season :(

mannn.. the only lego sets that are on sale this christmas are bionicle sets. all others at regular price, 5% off if you use a citibank card. just to give you a clue of how expensive the sets here are, got the road hero for about US$8.50, and that's the cheapest set out there! geesh.. thanks again for those who welcomed me :)

its HARD to find new sets here in the philippines, heck TRU stores don't even carry 7998! and it's expensive too. the Batmobile UCS costs around US$250, and the ferrari finish line set costs around US$175. the only lego set on sale here is the passenger plane, which costs around US$50. though there are still 2006 sets lying around here in the metro. trying my luck in using BL, just sucks it takes around 17 working days just to get your parcel (i haven't confirmed this yet, but that's what our post office said). Lego was big here in the 80's, they had this big Lego festival when I was a kid where there lots of MOCs and sets on sale. too bad it isn't happening in the near future :( thanks for the warm welcome everybody! :)

i think the Batman license's exception is due to the fact that they're releasing a video game next year, with a storyline independent of the movies.

my GF is a big HP fan, she would probably love to have those. id give some to her if only to make her addicted to lego too. LOL!

adik_sa_lego literally means addicted to lego. addicted to it when i was a kid, until my parents won't buy me any. revived when i got to afford it already. ferrari all the way! too bad i missed out on the harry potter sets :( looking forward to indiana jones and the batman sets (and game as well!) Mabuhay!

Enchanted! if you grew up watching disney movies as a kid, you will find this movie really funny!

that is soooo cooool man! has a retro feel to it. i really like it!

it was a police car (i think it was 6623) given to me together with a police helicopter (6642). i think that was in 1989, i was 4 back then. then came my hook and haul wrecker and vacation camper. lost in time :( but re-ordering parts in BL. the same with my rescue rig.

seems like lego thinks you can never have enough ferrari trucks! LOL

Mabuhay! :-D

any good asian sellers? and those with friendly shipping costs to southeast asia? checked out stonies bricks, not much sets but at least he ships fast to our region :)

it's still a bit pricey for a fake Lego. here in the philippines. a fake lego ferrari scuderia truck set costs around 8 Euros (imported from china). still have to confirm it though if it's really identical.

just finished trying to replicate this alternate mod. i have way more unused pieces than this. still better looking than the real thing, though it's a bit fragile to play with (trash can doesn't fit in the wheel fender; lifting mechanism sort of unstable).

i like the previous pit sets and truck set better than 2008's. though that FXX is something to really look forward to. i hope they also release a F2007, similar to the 8362 version.

great alternate! makes me think of getting another one just so they have both a garbage truck and a recycle truck hahaha!
