Non Technic LEGO

[Every day a journey]

500 free points from registering some of my opened sets. Nice

No code on the Sian though???

[Sporky]

Did you buy the Sian from Lego?

Sets from the Lego store don't have codes.

Nope. Amazon.

The 6x6 Off road rescue truck does either. Too old? 2017 I think

Some do at least, bought my lad some sets from Lego and they all have had codes.

You can email customer service and they will put the points on your account, I registered a few thousand points recently and half a dozen sets didn't have the QR code, Lego "help" asked me for pic of the boxes and applied the points immediately.

If anyone lives near Bristol and needs somewhere dry and fun to take their kids tomorrow in the grim weather (or just yourselves if you love a bit of LEGO!) Then the Bristol Brick Show is on at the Gloucestershire county cricket ground, BS7 9EJ. Can get tickets on the door, all profits go to Children's charities. Details here:

We've booked for tomorrow after it was mentioned a while ago here, only an hour from home. The boy is very excited!

Littlest has chicken pox so had a dig in the attic to see what was unbuilt up there for them.

Nice little set.

Lucky man.

I hesitated a couple of years ago when I just missed out on the Argos sub-£100 deal. Now it's >£200 from Lego with few offers elsewhere I'm regretting not buying it.

Would that be set 10274?
Think this is the smaller creator set 21108.

Love the smaller ECTO-1, one of my favourite builds full stop.

Went to the Bristol Brick Show this morning with the 9 year old...wow. He watches Beyond the Brick channel a lot so for him to get to see builds on the scale featured on there blew his mind. Also rinsed us of £30 buying Harry Potter minifigures no longer available

Apparently the orient express is about the carriages and not the engine

Many years ago I went on an Orient express experience, a trip round the South East while having a meal. It engine was a diesel, so yes it's all about the carriages.

Rebuilt the Home Alone house ready for the incoming festive period and also incorporated the Game of Bricks (Christmas set) lifting set as well

Have to admit I’m pretty impressed by the outcomes and it looks great in my daughter’s room although is too bright to use as a nightlight!

I've never even considered Lego as an adult. I was a big fan in the 1970's!

Anyway, my sister bought the Piano set to build yesterday to place upon her real Baby Grand. So I bought the big Titanic kit...now shopping for the lighting kit at Light My Bricks.

That lighting kit is.....erm....pricey!

Looks amazing though!

Game of Bricks tends to be a bit cheaper than light my bricks.

I bought a lighting kit for my titanic after having built it. I started trying to put the lighting in and have to admit it was too much like hard work. Definitely install as you build!

I’m hoping that when I move into my new office, I’ll have space to display some Lego. At that point I may reconsider the hassle of the lighting.

In the Lego store getting the Pink Parrot for the other half. Couldn’t resist (cash in pocket from selling a new Shuttle Discovery)…..and double points too!

Yes, I read a review where it was mentioned that if wanting the lighting kit it was best added during the build because they go everywhere. It recommended the 'Light My Bricks' version because it has a lot more lights, including for the boilers!

This is my first Lego set for 40 years! My step-kids showed zero interest so none bought. I intend to set this up as an ornament in my study but the build will be for quiet evenings in with my girlfriend this Christmas holiday season; cheese and wine and Lego!
