No Problem, they have the Lake-house chase at £25 as well which is about £15 cheaper than everywhere else as well if you are going for the collection.

Nice - just ordered that too! Bought the Lego Movie Sea Cow earlier (full price from Lego - but I think it's set to become quite rare) so they help offset it smile
Nice, the Sea Cow looks cool.

Benny's spaceship will be popular as well.

Nice one, girlfriends mum has staff discount so just picked up two for £152 each.
Nice, you get 200 1x1 in dark red and 200 1x1 in clear. Enjoy yourself, hehe.

I fancied one for a while, just don't have the money, not cheap.

Looks like someone hit it with a sledge hammer a few times.

Someone showed pictures of 2 tower bridges which just had tape round them and one of them had a massive hole in the corner and half the bags missing eek.

having read pistonheads for years, it amused me to see the lego thread !

my interest as a child was always trains, through 70's to the 80's when they got their conductor rail and electricity.

Being a fastidious child, I kept instructions and boxes in fairly perfect condition and amazed a huge collection of the train gear, signals, points, station etc- the coverted 7740 electric passenger train set. Lots of the houses/vehicles

what I find amazing, I look on ebay now and then: are these things really worth the money people seem to want/sell them for ?

I can't help think I have a collection worth £1000's: it doesn't seem to make sense.

are the train items particularly collectable: they certainly seem to be ?
If you have photos or a list, I will post them on a LEGO forum I am on with a few train fans and try to get an idea of what they are worth for you.

If you participated in the 42009 Group buy then you should already be on the list. If not and you want to be on it then please just drop me a PM.

As for the 21108. When I am allowed to officially advertise them I will bung out an email with a link so you can go ahead and place an pre-order.

Price, I'll see if I can knock off a couple quid for you chaps. But in fairness I think the demand for these products will see the price rise to well above RRP in the short term - so its not going to be a massive discount. Also if I can reduce the price I may restrict it to 1-2 pieces per person as I know buying to resell is ripe for any product which has a limited production.

Watch this space.
What's the retail price for them again?

Yikes.

Quite a few extra figures compared to the £34.99 Delorean though I guess.

Might have missed a trick here - in my local Toys R Us with the nippers and i spy a Star Wars B Wing - Kit 10227 boxed but no price. I was all up for asking for a price from the assistant up to the point my 9 year old daughter said "Mum will go mental".

Question is - should i head back tomorrow and just buy it anyway? The box was a bit battered so i'm guessing it was a return but if it's a reasonable price - say less than £150 - it's got to be worth a punt hasn't it?
The last online price on TRU website was £99.99.
