I've just started my Christmas shopping

[Penny-lope]

Got this for me my wee man

[Steamer]

Oooo wouldnt mind a flick through that myself.

Got an email reminding me there was only something like 60 days left to shop with them or some such guff this morning

Far too early for me to be thinking about it yet though.

I do most of mine somewhere between the 20th and 24th and never had any problems!

Saw some note in the Post Office about when is the latest you can send a parcel to certain places for it to get there in time for Christmas

It's very cool, with the '2011' being made out of actual Lego pieces.

You've always gotta have some kind of kit / car / track / model to build on christmas day - are you buying him any lego sets to go with it?

You star Penny.

Was talking last night with the M-I-L about ideas for my little man's Xmas stocking.

Only a fiver from Amazon as well.

Of course

This year we will mainly be building this most likely



along with this




After enjoying one of these for a month




(Unless of course the little sod angel changes his mind...yet again!)

Oh god, too early for me to be thinking about Xmas shopping just yet! No doubt I'll have 5 pints of strong ale to fortify myself for a last-minute panic-buy on the 24th! Bah, humbug!

I hope that's because he's already got every piece of Star Wars Lego available, ever.

Saw that Lego book down at the local Waterstones. Had a flick through, was quite disappointed.

Started my christmas shopping on holiday in Orlando ... in August.

Although at the DTD Lego Store I discovered the Lego architecture range, and this one caught my eye :



Truly awesome, but a little on the small side.

If he's got the Lego death star (the full thing, multiple rooms/characters, overflowing with awesome factor), my son would be over there in about 5 milliseconds.

I've been trying to convince potential customers on facebook and the website that it's time to start thinking about Christmas, hey if they don't then I can't

[Penny-lope]

The Star Wars models never last, and in my opinion really are a waste of pennies

I did get him a Lego Wookie pen last year though

[TonyHetherington]

Now follow it up with a Death Star.

No kid wants to be Merlin - he wants to be Luke Skywalker!

No really he wants the castle this year. I suspected that Harry Potter would be this years choice, but nope knights and wenches are where it's at

[louiebaby]

Started myself the other week.

Pretty much finished, and I think my brother will be getting Lego now.

He's 28.

I bought him Nerf guns last year.

There's a lot to be said for buxom wenches

The wifey is handling most of the shopping, she's a good egg in that sense. I've got her a handbag that apparently match a pair of shoes she's bought.

[Lemmonie]

I have pretty much completed mine already!

Yay, just booze and food to buy in December now
