Got that as my awesome PH secret Santa present this year, really nice model and an excellent present!
This never arrived and Amazon refunded me. It was still sitting in my wish list but now at £14 so I ordered it again, its showing as delivered today readit

Yeah, I did check to see if it applied to the website as well but, as you say, unfortunately not.

Tesco stores are clearing 2014 stock - there have been some substantial reductions but it's wholly store-dependent and they don't generally have much stock.

I picked up the Technic rescue helicopter for £25 last year in the equivalent clearance. Luck of the draw.....

My other half has just posted the Kwik E Mart on my facebook, with the comment 'we need to get this to go with the house'...

Got her properly trained now, she even likes curry after seven years.

Now just need her to realise my unimog is getting lonely!

This post led to me checking tescos website and ended up in me buying the F1 pitstop and 458 challenge kit so i could combine the minifig outfits to make a mini-me,

...and I'm barely managing to resist getting the 911 kit for the podium so I can put my mini-me on the podium, also barely resisting the P1 918 and LaF, the only thing keeping me back is that they look pretty crap.

I'm thinking about getting the 50052 cargo train. Does anyone know what sort of size the track layout is, and also the height of the crane? I'm hoping it fits under the kids bed...

There is a big Ferrari F40 10248 coming out in July, similar to 10242 Mini Cooper.

I've been desperately looking for a picture of it and can't find anything, I think I'm going to have to buy a few of these F40's!

Don't think there are any out there yet (none that Lego have allowed to stay out, if there are/were any, anyway)

All seems to be based on a textual reference along side the set number, from which people are guessing the size/scale/range (Creator range) based on other vehicles already out with similar set numbers.

Ill pop my account manager an email about it, but as I have said before LEGO keep a lot of these big lines to themselves and strike the odd deal with people like John Lewis etc. Plus I haven't seen it on this years launch schedule yet - so its more than likely something they are keeping internally....

I'm just waiting on 19 parts from 7 sellers to turn up, then I can start building this:



I've had parts arriving daily for the last 2 weeks, hopefully the remaining bits will turn up next week then I can get started.

Is anyone interested in a build log?
