  1. Well I rushed over to my local lego store and picked up a TH as they had 2 left and got a free little christmas workshop! The lady there told me that loads of big sets are being retired at the moment!
  2. Hmmm, are we thinking the Town Hall has been retired as it now shows as SOLD OUT on the Lego website in the UK? I really hope not as it was the next one I wanted to pick up! Cheers Ben
  3. Hi, I upload pics to photobuckt and then link to them! Cheers Ben
  4. UPDATE So, here are a few shots of the continued work on our airport... The outside of the terminal is now mainly complete I have rebuilt the small snack bar and finished the floor. Here is the terminal re-attached to the overall airport Some detail on the coffee bar (missing a table top though!) The view from the terminal... I always dreamed of having planes lined up as they appear at real airports with all the tails in a line The pizza restaurant Being played with!! I'm really pleased with how it's going and the boys love the 2 luggage shoots I have included (one down from checking to a collection area and one from outside down to the luggage belt in arrivals) But there is still lots to do... - I need to furnish and detail the departure gates - finish the lighting - figure out how to include an air traffic control tower - put a floor in the Resturant and magazines in the small shop Plus much more! Cheers Ben
  5. You know, this is the one thing that I'm struggling with at the moment but I'm sure I will come up with a plan! I'm not sure if it will be part of the terminal or stand alone or even where it will be positioned!
  6. Hi All, Here is a small update. Some bricks arrived yesterday so I spent an hour building a bit more of the main terminal building and testing out how the floor will work. I will add some better quality pictures later. But for now, here it is... Cheers Ben
  7. Yes, lights and a partial roof to come! Plus lots of other details, seats and a control tower to add! I agree! I did a search for airports on here and found very few projects! I guess it's due to space, particularly with the new extra big planes. I think you need to use the small ones to get a decent size airport!
  8. Yes, we have one of those to build! Will add it later! We are just waiting for more bricks to arrive to complete the main structure of the terminal building. I have left the back of the terminal open so the boys can actually play with it and there will just be a partial roof for the same reason! Lots of work to do!
  9. Hi all. I am a father of 2 little boys who are just discovering lego. But when I was a kid I loved lego and I loved airports. I did build a big airport back in the day but it was hard to get the bits I needed and never really worked how I wanted it too. So we have started to build a new airport project and by eldest boy is loving it (as am I). I am now getting to build the airport I wanted to build when I was a kid. I much prefer the planes of the 80s as I feel the new ones are way to big to work with. Here are some initial photos but I will add more as we go along. Any thoughts or ideas are more than welcome! Cheers Ben
