General Sale on LEGO.com unfortunately. They just wont let us independents have all these sets, such a shame. james_tigerwoods said:
Done! Some modifications needed as I wanted the trailer to work with both trucks and there were a few bits missing but it's finally finished!
Good work on building it up. I stumbled into this thread by accident but I actually have that exact model fully assembled in a box in my garage. Comes out a few times a year for my youngest to play with. ciege said:
Tigerwoods - love them trucks, bit large for my roads however
Here's a few more from the current layout and a previous one, the Lego Scalextric cars work really well considering they're all Lego powered and Lego tyres:
That's awesome - Have you got any other build instructions as I'd love to have a go at that Here's a few more from the current layout and a previous one, the Lego Scalextric cars work really well considering they're all Lego powered and Lego tyres:

I did a really poor youtube video of using a 12v cigarette USB adapter to step down voltage to 5V to use Lego motors, as the main problem is the cheapest ones to find are:These are grey 4.5v so you'll need to step down.
If you can find the black ones, I use mostly they are 12v so you can run them directly from the Scalextric, however they are much harder\expensive to find:
Anyway the build video with the USB jobby is:

Here's a few more, including a nice 4x4 Landrover Series 2

And many others if you have a look through!!
Hope this inspires perhaps.

Rollercoaster time-lapse build (8mins) from JanBricks; quite a sizable set!

I’ve been after this for a while, so I picked one up while in the Lego store yesterday. Great build so far, i’m around halfway through the first stage rocket.
Someone picked up one of those yesterday while I was filling pick a brick cups up, a couple of the new UCS Y wing and some one came in and got a UCS Falcon. Massive box to have to carry out of the store, .

10261 - Roller Coaster but not available in the UK?
The guy running that looks shifty and makes me doubt that adequate safety arrangements are being carried out.That's weird. I got an email last week that it would be available here in the Netherlands today for VIP access and I get the same "not available in your country" notice........
Bah.
also, it appears I can't add it to my wishlist either so I'm guessing there's just an website error somewhere and it'll be ok later on.

Thanks to Cliffe_Mafia for the excellent spot and for sharing the bargain he located.
I've spent the past 3 weeks downloading instructions, rebuilding and cleaning the models that were built (sometimes not correctly!). Based on the sets I've built (which is all that I could identify) there are 20-30 pieces missing that I may order from BrickLink.
In addition to the sets pictured I've got a large box of pieces (maybe 300-500 bricks, something like this plus approximately 50 minifig's that I need to re-assemble.
I've taken a picture of the 3 most distinctive missing pieces, does anybody know which set these may have come from or is there a way to work it out based on the brick number or anything like this?
£20 very well spent in my eyes
