I really don't "get" that typewriter. You can pick up a real one for a tenth of the price

I've got 3 or 4 typewriters I picked up from charity shops for about a fiver each but I'm still buying this

It would be good to see a braille MOC of the typewriter.

I could pick up small scale models of various Lego vehicles I have for a lot less but that's not really the point is it

From initial impressions this sounds like a fascinating build with lots of interesting techniques, it's also a very nice display piece when finished.

I take your point. Maybe I just don't like typewriters, lol.

Unlike a lot of Lego stuff, which is quite obviously Lego, and not a scale model, the typewriter looks so much like the real thing.

gone retro having picked up a load of my old Lego from my folks last week.

Couple of bits missing but I'm sure they're in the box...

Built the 911 this evening, very good. End result looks superb.

Boba Fett done.

Rather liked that! Favourite character from the films too.

Popped it on my buy list …. Not sure why? But do only wear superstars.

Definite no from me on that as well.

I'm into Lego, in a big way but I'm not a fan of this one.

Its a brave choice, and its a odd to see this when some utterly brilliant "ideas" stuff doesn't get built.

I suspect it’s all to do with Adidas wanting them to make it as part of their clothing deal.
