LEGO builds for Adults

I was quite enjoying it 'til the bunny attack! I thought the build on the legs was really clever. I've had to put him on the back burner for now though as I wanted to make a start on the McCallister house.

Was thinking I'd get it this Christmas but might wait a bit as I want to make sure I have the space for it 🤪

Yeah the legs didn't stress me out, his torso area was a tad dodgy and I had to break him apart to swap a few bits as I'd used the wrong colour blocks FFS 🤣 (I'd used grey instead of black or vice versa, it's hard to tell on that bloody grey background FFS)

Aye I imagine once completed it's going to be a full console tables worth at least 🙂.

The midriff on mine has broke a few times like - not the strongest build in the world.

I was using the torch on me phone to check whether it was navy or black tiles.

Nope, and you need to press hard enough to ensure the body parts are all connected properly (his arms kept dropping off but one hard thrust and jobs a goodun 😉).

Buckled and picked up F1 McLaren via new VERY account for £99

UPDATE: The F1 McLaren they are selling/promoting shows Pirelli Tyres. For anyone in the know, this version was withdrawn due to sponsorship/copyright. I ordered it on the fact that it was the Pirelli version, but when it arrived earlier, it turns out to be the normal one (which is still OK for the price I paid), but bit miffed.

Left them a shitty review

yea i was well aware of that matey, but thought I'd take a chance in the hope it was the original set which would've been a bargain for £99 - still is tbh. Do you know if sticker set with the re-release is a whole knew set or just the tyres that are different

Just the tyre stickers are changed I think.

I’ve got the original one, I got lucky when I was in London in the Oxford Street shop.

Just finished building the Millennium Falcon (75257) with the grandson, his not mine. I've got the Luke Skywalker Red 5 Helmet waiting to be built and some parts for a MOC I am working on arrived yesterday.
