Is that the oldschool batmobile or the new tumbler.

A mate's had to break-up his Tower Bridge kit in order to make room for one of his many other kits he's stashed in his basement - his wife runs a "Lego 1 in, 1 out" rule!
My wife's now building Tower Bridge, all 4287 pieces of it! Can't get better than free, including the box. smile

Whilst that's great for you, I do have to ask, is your mate mentally retarded? That set is being retired so it's only going to go up in value!

He's more money than sense when it comes to stuff like this! It's not the first time he's done that either.

Considering how under the thumb he appears to be you'd think his Mrs would have something to say about giving away expensive items for free.

Russ, are these SW kits relating to the new film, or the stuff already out there?

Any large sets coming in?

There are two releases, June which has some current stuff, Couple nice models. But the big release is Sept where it's all related to the new film. I really can't say any more than this as it's the most strict LEGO have ever been about a launch as they have Disney on their case too....

There are some sites out there with decent info regarding RRPs, but you won't find anything more about individual sets. But there are a few good'uns....

Looking at buying some Lego for a young 'un.

Will set 31026 fit in with the creator buildings e.g the pet shop etc, or is it for the mini modulars?

It's 2 8x16 plates, so is either the same width as a modular and the depth of the path, or 16x16 and a quarter of a modular's base.

I would expect it to look fairly small in comparison, however there are some newer buildings in a similar size,so you could possibly get them as a collection instead.

Good to know. I'm wondering whether they can be mixed and matched. £50-60 is saving pocket money territory, 120-170 for the bigger ones is too much of a stretch as a proposition for a collection.
