Looks class. Had this sat on my table for a month still in the box, need to get my arse in gear to do it; how long did it take?

I’ve been chipping away at it here and there since the start of the month, if I’d had the spare time I reckon I could’ve sorted it in a couple of days, I have spent some time faffing as well, I didn’t like some of the bits they wanted me to put in so I’ve changed a couple out for spares I had but I’m really happy with the end product.
 
I’ve just finished building the Medieval Blacksmith and it’s one of the best, if not the best, Lego sets that I’ve done. It makes a lovely display model too but there is play value if you have to share it with the kids! Here’s a speed build if anyone is interested.

Lovely build that..

I've been building lots of small stuff and selling on ebay.. done clkse to £400 in the last fortnight... Not even made a tiny dent in what I've got to sell
 
Finally ordered The McAllister house the other day - will build in the run up to Christmas. Easter sale on Zavvi. Hoyed in the AT-ST with Chewie for good measure. :lol:

Pity we couldn't get the collective sway of the SMB to get the SoL / Roker Park sets voted for on the ideas page.

Canny, but could do with a tweak here or there.

I may need to keep a tab for the SoL. I reckon with a few more tubs of red, I could maybe build that
 
You may be interested in an episode of Scouting for Toys on Yesterday channel Thursday - it’s Vectis Auction house thornaby and this episode is specifically about Lego outfits

I have the McAllister house too and the plan is to use the build as an Advent calendar. Twenty four bags, one for each day in December leading up to Christmas. Might have to sit on my hands to stop myself from opening ‘just another bag!’ Luckily I still have the DeLorean, Discovery and Harry Potter Train to do.

Aye, I've seen it's in 24 bags so that's sort of the plan for me too. Will probs have to skip days here or there and do a few at a time, depending how long each stage takess.

I'm sure someone on this thread was doing it Christmas gone.

Built that with the bairns as an Advent Calendar. Was a great build. Finished it off with a watch of the film.

Yep. Its fairly involved. Had forgotten that in the run up to Christmas things are generally busy, so there was a couple of days where two bags needed to be done.
The build itself was great, as are all the moving parts and nods to the movie.
A top tip if you do go for the advent build is to not build it on the dining table if you’re hosting Christmas dinner. A right chew transferring it….
