Who has taken the plunge & dropped £350.00 on the SP3?
If so is it worth the money?
I am tempted - so far I have resisted the temptation too visit my local Lego store (a 75 mile round trip!!!)
I'd love to, but I'm going to wait until it is reduced like the Bugatti and Lamborghini was. If so is it worth the money?

It's huge! I saw it built and on display in the Lego shop in Brighton when I went in to get Starry Night. You can just about see it here - I took this pic for my 4 year old nephew when I said I was going there..! 
Mine's available for collection now from my local Argos but I'm waiting until they also have the Typewriter I've ordered in stock later this week so I'll pick them both up at the same time.

And Smyths Toys as well for a penny less.
Ordered mine from Argos last night. Collected it this morning & was greeted by a battered box & the Argos product code sticker on the front of the box!!!!Now I’m one of the many (few) who keep the boxes & bags all together. Nothing gets binned.
So after much arguing I got a refund, went too Smyths & saved myself 1p!!!!
Trouble is that Smyths have the Sian on offer at £239.99 & the Space Shuttle at £139.99 so which one do I get?
Worth knowing; any Argos stickers can be easily removed with a heat gun but like you, I keep all the boxes in as pristine condition as I can so I won't accept a box that looks like it's been chucked down a flight of stairs..! Might go and pick mine up from Argos tomorrow on my way home from the office, if the box is knackered then at least I can do as you have and source it from Smyths.

The box I got this morning looked like Gareth Bale had been hitting it with a golf club for an hour!!!The Brummie said:

Get the Sian. Now I’m one of the many (few) who keep the boxes & bags all together. Nothing gets binned.
