Good morning Lego fanatics…

Ooh! What's this?
As per the Technic Lego thread, I am looking to put together a group buy for the forthcoming 42055 Wheel Bucket Excavator & 42056 Technic Porsche 911 GT3 with our favourite reselling partner. smile

Photos shamelessly stolen from the internet!

Please note that full details on the 911 set have not been confirmed yet, so the set may change or could potentially be dropped from the range. Hopefully they wont, as I really want one! hehe


How much will they be?
We're hoping to offer the usual discount of around 15-20% off the RRP, but at this stage the level of discount is not confirmed as the costs prices have not even been released to sellers yet.

The Retail price of the sets are expected to be £250 for the 911 and £180 for the Excavator


What's in it for me?
Nothing. I'm getting the same deal as you. A friendly fellow happens to own a shop that sells Technic Lego and you are buying from him.


Do I have to commit now?
NO! At this point we're just looking for interested parties to come forward so we know how many to put aside! The only point you actually commit is when you buy from the website.


When does it happen?
Launch date is expected to be the beginning of August.


Other sets
There are several large Technic sets being released in August. We will judge interest in these sets nearer the time and put some packages together if we see fit.


Am I eligible?
Usual Group Buy terms apply. This is a group buy for PHers, and therefore you must have been a member for at least 6 months to qualify.


I'm interested!
If you are seriously interested in buying either set, then please add your name to the thread. Whilst there is no commitment to buy, we are trying to gauge the popularity of the set. At £180 & £250 these are not cheap sets, so if you can’t afford it or you’re not sure, please do not add your name for now. Thanks.

Sidicks - "Strictly speaking, isn't this the 911 GT3 RS?!"

It could be the RSR, as that's being renewed this year and they're talking about a 'livery'...

Any chance of adding the Claas tractor too?

It is, but then do you want to upset the person organizing the group buy? hehe
