That prate ship was awesome. My brother received that for his birthday and it quickly became part of the universe! I loved the little spring-loaded cannons.

This was about the height of my ambitions as a lad.

Awesome collection of sets there!
I loved the original Space range, I stupidly offloaded most of my sets from when I was a kid when I went off to University, I was one of those kids that kept all the packaging for toys as well, with hindsight, I’d probably be sitting on a goldmine of old stuff now had I kept it all.

Alas I never had the big set, rather a few of the smaller sets which I would put together.

Was it more about what you could put inside the garage😉

My wife’s dried flowers set from the Botanical collection. The photo doesn’t really do it justice. Very fiddly to build though.

That looks good, will finish box 2 off today of the Titanic build, pics later, discovered the issues you encountered when I had pieces left after one of the building stages, head scratching time and on rechecking back……it doesn’t show adding the pieces, but later stages, they are there :thinking:

The funnels? Four pins to hold them but only three holes for the pins to go in.

Correct, clever way to get the angle, strange choice of brick to attach them.

Great build tho :+1:

There is a shop selling ex lego near us……is this what eventually happens to them. They are brilliant, but rather large….still in awe.



As promised, here my build, it’s flipping huge! It’s a great build, can highly recommend, just check how much space you have!!
