The deals on Amazon UK that I've seen so far, while looking good based on total % off, are all just a couple of quid less than they usually are.

Bought a second Countach so that I could build this Lotus. Will try to turn it into a submarine at some point.

Any idea who makes these Breaking Bad RVs and what the quality might be like? https://www.amazon.co.uk/lego-breaking-bad/s?k=lego+breaking+bad

deoju posted:That looks like that is this design on rebrickable. Thanks, had a feeling those photos were actual lego. Found another one with a terrible review so not going to bother.

I just built the front section of the Blacktron cruiser and drat that was some nostalgia overload. Countless hours spent in front of Saturday morning telly building similar sized MOC space fighters, making sure the cabins were air tight.

What's really impressed me after I got (back) into Lego this year is how pieces are reused. I always assumed that all these licenced sets were made from a lot of unique one-off pieces, but the more I build, the more I realise that's not the case. Like, the Tallneck's neck bits that you climb in the game. Browsing ebay, I've learned they were originally Orc swords. I find that very satisfying for some reason. I've been eyeing the A Frame Cabin and, if I'm not mistaken, the foundation seems to made up of a couple dozen Mjolnirs? Junkenstein fucked around with this message at 01:09 on Jul 29, 2023 |

xzzy posted:I wonder if this just a "we got no other ideas so let's try it" or if this is gonna coincide with another wave of pre-1995 space set remakes. Space is just the codename for a full Dune CMF series.

Do you POBB owners tend to have it hideout or ship form?

It's 20 points per set according to Brick Fanatics, so like 40 sets for a £5 voucher?

That's just the QR codes to be clear. Stuff bought direct from Lego will still give 5% worth.

Bought a relatively new set, Central Perk, for cheap off Vinted and the clutch power (I believe that's the term) is about 75-80% for everything. Just wondering what can make that happen. I doubt it's something that's been played with a lot or rebuilt loads of times. Displayed right above a radiator or something? Also built the sail boat adventure tonight after buying as-new for about £18 (also from Vinted, surprisingly good for Lego, in the UK at least). What a lovely, pleasing-to-the-eye set.

Bird of Paradise just seems sooooo expensive compared to the orchid, especially when the later is always on sale somewhere.

I don't think I've seen any discount on the Galaxy Explorer in the UK since I got (back) into Lego this year. Ordered the Blacksmith yesterday with some some weekend poker winnings and was going to pick the Galaxy Explorer up around Xmas, but welp, that's two orders in the warehouse now.....

It better be another James Bond car. Working on the Galaxy Explorer. The way everything comes together on the base, oh man.

There's a nice Lotus build for the Countach. An official one would rule, especially if it transformed. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-115846/ilyabuilder724/76908-lotus-esprit/#details Junkenstein posted:Bought a second Countach so that I could build this Lotus.

This alt build of the F&F charger is a really good starting point for a Mad Max interceptor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctAISlCMQQg Carbs (or someone, can't find the post} posted their edited version a couple of months ago.

It was veni veni veniveni veni veni posted:I continued to rework stuff on K MP's Mad Max mod for the F&F charger until I was happy with it. They got the shape of it so right, it really doesn't look all that different haha, but I actually did do a ton of work on it, I redid the backend entirely which was pretty bare bones, and reshaped the windows to look a bit closer to the real thing, replaced the windshield, spoiler, redid the tanks, added the tire, made the tiles consistent and reinforced the whole thing. At the end of the day I can't take credit for about 80% of this, but I feel like I have the (almost) perfect speed champions interceptor now. I'd still like to figure out a way to make 1x2 gold vents work for headights, but I need some parts and I'm still not sure it'll look great. Also getting all 8 exhaust pipes in would be nice but the math doesnt really work without them taking up way too much space.

Waltzing Along posted:It's going to go up. It was obvious from the beginning that that was not a set to try on the secondary market. It's been years since a GWP came out that was that obviously going to be in demand. If they just released it to stores as a retail item, it would have sold out immediately. I've favourited several on Vinted and they're not selling for £40. Sellers are slowly inching them down. I think it'll settle at a lower price like the Blacktron cruiser and forest hideout.

Gravitas Shortfall posted:I want a redone Blacktron I fig, because to me that was the cool space guy. All the rest were bright colours with semi-transparent visors, but that dude? All in black, opaque black visor. So cool. I used to go a step further and replace his head with a transparent red cylinder, implying he was some kind of hosed up robot or energy being. There seems to be plenty of the Blacktron Cruiser GWP floating around. I got an unopened one for I think £25 last year. It's awesome.
