What did you build over Christmas 2021

[melted welly]

Cats never seem to look overly impressed do they? I think that’s what makes them so cool lol. Probably thinking, bloody idiot you wasted 16 nights doing that when you could have been curled up sleeping like me

I’ve a cat like that, miserable bugger that he is. Years ago the wife was doing her PhD at home. She’s not a very tidy person and had reams of paper spread out on rug in front of fire. Cat cat came in, couldn’t find a spot to sit down, snorted then knocked over all her little piles of notes with his paw. He wasn’t allowed to stay in the room.

Finished the Millenium falcon. Took me 17 days doing 1 bag per night. The bags are huge and took up to 3 hours each. The overall result is super impressive, if a little flimsy!! Thankfully the manual gives you advise on where to hold it etc. Need to get a proper glass display case for this one I think.

Got this AT-ST for Father’s Day so built it on Sunday. Very enjoyable and cool little build! It actually shoots out the guns as well! I already had the mini one which was a gift with purchase at the Lego store for May the 4th.

Disney springs, it’s was metal busy you had to q to get in some really cool stuff but I would not normally wait, we had a few hours before flight back was only real reason we went!

Been busy since I last posted in here. I actually sold the Millenium falcon. Just didn’t gel with it, both through the build and with the end result.

Finished the Star destoyer, which has pride of place in the hallway, and is absolutely amazing. So much presence and always a talking point.

Did some more speed champions sets. Getting quite a few of these now and really enjoy them. Nice quick builds with lots of cool techniques.

Finished the new 1969 Camaro, I chose the convertible configuration with white stripes (can also have grey or red stripes and hardtop)

Also came home today with the new speed champions Doms charger. I have the large technic version so wasn’t going to bother with this, but saw it built up and it’s very cool!

Did this Lego John Deere and dump trailer set too. Had my eye on it for a while and thought for £25 it was worth a go!

How the collection currently stands

Top job but that racking on the left is still seriously messing with my karma, I’m actually losing sleep over it now

Yeah it's designed by a guy Eric Trax, some of his stuff I'd really good.

Can you like not put posts up like this, I have problems enough resisting buying things I don’t need and you’re not helping!

So where do you buy them?

 

[Fraserb]

So where do you buy them?

There's a couple of ways, either site like rebrickable where you can buy the instructions and gather up rhe parts yourself or some of Eric trax designs are made into proper kits available from the link below, that's where I got the tractor from.

Is it genuine Lego used to make the sets up on that decada store site? If it’s not is it as good a quality?

It's not genuine lego, I've only had the tractor and plough set, quality was good, no missing pieces, I've got the claas forklift coming now as well.

Round or square?
