Built the second of the microscale shops - the flower shop. I have the bakery on the way, but the fruit shop is proving elusive at a sensible price - looks like £40ish! If anyone's got the Fruit Shop 40684 and is interested in swapping for some other GWPs or so on do let me know - I've got a box of sets I'm not sure I'll build.

I was just in the Lego store - child free, so o could actually look at stuff. There s a new Wall-e/Eve set which looks good. Sized/priced between the old Wall-e and the brick heads set.

I didn t think the speed champions GT3RS looked that good, not much like a 911. The Dodge Challenger looked good though.
I have three of the old 6 stud 911's. Can't bring myself to buy the new one though, just doesn't look right.

I'm going to the Lego Store on Saturday and can't decide what I want to get.

Budget is around £250. I've had a lot of Technic so looking at non Technic this time as not really done any.

Options at the moment are.

https://www.lego.com/en-gb/product/nasa-artemis-sp...

https://www.lego.com/en-gb/product/concorde-10318

Has anyone got any of these?

I have all three boxedin but have only got around to building the Artemis so far. Really enjoyed the build albeit most of it is building the launch platform and some of the stages are bit repetitive, but I love the kit overall.

The Concorde is a fantastic build. Easily in my top 3 builds, and possibly number 1, and I've built st loads of system sets.

Concorde was going to be my first choice, but it doesnt look like its in stock in store...

Hopefully it will when I go up at the weekend, if not ill just order it online and get a smaller one on the day.

Only going to the shop itself as my step son loves Lego and its more of an experience than him just looking online ha.

On the flip side I love how the Concorde looks but I thought a fair amount of the build was repetitive and it certainly wasn't one of my favourite builds!

I have the Concorde currently up for sale.. not the best Lego build I have done but like the working undercarriage .I much preferred the Shuttle build .The Artimus looks interesting but as some say a bit repetitive .

I suppose you could download the instructions for free and buy the bricks on Bricklink https://www.lego.com/en-gb/service/building-instru...

True - I'll investigate what that'd cost.

90% of the Artemis build is the launch tower and is quite repetitive. It looks great though.

Been back in today and had a word they know it’s a bit early and asked me to keep it to myself.
