No problem, fella, I was planning to do something like that anyway. Sadly though, the missus bought it as my Christmas present so we all have to wait a few weeks.
It's sat on the floor in my lego construction room, taunting me every day when I go in to open my lego advent calendars.
You have greater will power than I would have, though I guess the lego calendars are holding off the urge a little bit. It's sat on the floor in my lego construction room, taunting me every day when I go in to open my lego advent calendars.
Really looking forward to your thread about the build and seeing some pictures as it progress, I imagine it's going to be a 20+ hour build time at least!
Jealous? Me?.........Very!

I know! I'd probably be first in line...
It's being suggested that it'll be out in March 2015 and is set no 76042...If so, i'm going to need a bigger table to build on!!
Incidentally, was watching a couple of SSD's on Ebay and they went for between £415 - 430. Seems the investors are in pocket already...

Forgot to say this came from Argos and had 20% off
I nearly picked one up the other weekend in the Lego VIP offer weekend - 15% off and then a further discount for something or other. I didn't in the end, but I've been kicking myself since.
What's the concensus among those more knowledgeable than me on "collectible" kits on whether this one is likely to appreciate over time? From the little bit of reading I've done, it seems a bit hit and miss as to what sky-rockets, like the UCS Falcon, and what doesn't really go up much at all.
Not sure I'd have the willpower to leave it boxed and sealed anyway, TBH, even if I could somehow smuggle the cost past the Domestic FD!

How did you wangle the 20%? Looks like I've missed the boat on that promotion, if it was some sort of Argos deal.

I just happened to check the argos website and saw the one I wanted had the discount, reserved it online and collected it from my local store later that day I nearly picked one up the other weekend in the Lego VIP offer weekend - 15% off and then a further discount for something or other. I didn't in the end, but I've been kicking myself since.

did enjoy the build of this & glow in dark pieces just add a little extra , shame maybe couldn't of maybe sorted some sort of old school connector pieces to have some flashing lights as they did in light & sound fire & police trucks.
Ive now brought ferris wheel to add to it , wonder if more will follow , dodgems ?
GF liked building simpsons house took her about 6 - 7 hours
