You will have fun
That is stunning.
I started building the Playmobil with my nephews when they were about 4 and moved on to doing Lego with my son and daughter when they came along and it is a fantastic way to bond and to teach/learn/problem solve.
Thanks for sharing. I have just asked my wife if she already has bought a Christmas present for me
Apparently one in six people have started buying for Christmas .
I thought a Yellow Submarine would be fun to assemble over Christmas -£200 at Amazon …
Gosh, it wasn’t that price when I bought mine.
Over on Pink Fish there’s a “Lego for Investment” thread. Interesting. Folks are buying two…one to make, one for investment - the return seems pretty good for an unopened “retired” box.
I fail to make any money there though, cos I only buy one….and build it!
I’ve dropped unsubtle hints for the “Rivendell” set……but so has daughter#1!
I was flummoxed by how much , went onto the Lego site and it had been £35 and is retired , my guess is that it’s a collector’s item
Quite. Once a set is retired, the prices shoot up (provided that the box is intact).
Another thing is that many of the themed sets (Star Wars, Harry Potter, etc) come with mini-figures. Folks on eBay are selling sets without the mini figures because they can get £10-15 for each mini-figure. Indeed, I’ve seen some mini-figures going for substantial sums……£200 for Star Wars’ Ahsoka Tano (second variant)……………….
Oh yeah!
The Names Bond, James Bond.
Lego is more that a children’s toy, its a great creative tool, and it doesn’t matter if you’re 3 or 103.
Why has he got a towel on his head?
Nice car though.
