You do know there is another Echo Base set next year?
Did you get the big set that was in TRU? It is amazing.

The Hoth Battle is the one I meant that is out next year.
You do not have the amazing Echo big base? Awwww, poor Phil.

The Rebel Troopers in the Batle of Hoth set look so angry - I'd lay money that they were just about to go off watch and back inside to warm up when the Empire came calling.

I am a sucker for any Lego Empire related. I am still bitter that I did not get the At-At.

Long since gone from my shitty one.
It is so sad that Phil does not have Echo base though. Ralph has Echo base.

I had to find extra clear round plates for the empty branches on today's tree..... and stuck my spare odd mandarin orange coloured one on top.

I think I shall leave mine as "stock" - in its half decorated state it reminds me of the sparse state of the Christmas decorations up in my attic. At the moment two Minifigs are chasing each other around it - I got the butcher with his cleaver and T-bone steak, and the minotaur today. For reasons which should be obvious they are not quite seeing eye-to-eye. Karl

is it just me or has the Lego temptation gone up a few notches since the Advent dose started again?

Post by The Doctor on Dec 3, 2012 23:19:28 GMT
Not for me, actually. The daily dose is actually helping to keep the additional LEGO temptation at bay!

Lego Advent Day 4:
City: steps and star for yesterday's tree SW: Star Destroyer

It took me a stupidly long time to figure out how to build the Star Destroyer. In my defence, lots of insomnia of late.
I must, however, make the Gungun throw himself off the top of the steps.

Star Destroyer is really nice :-)

The Star Destroyer is great - I was building that whilst waiting for the kettle to boil for my first cup of coffee of the morning. (Humming the Imperial March whilst doing so of course).
I must find my Republic Star Destroyer so they can cruise along in company.

I haven't opened any windows yet. I'll have to catch up once I've got two minutes to rub together.

Enjoying the Star Wars calendar. Star Destroyer is really nice, as was the Gungun the other day. Took me a little while to realise the instructions were on the back of the door thing though.

As well as the code for the website

Post by The Doctor on Dec 4, 2012 18:11:37 GMT
What on Earth do those codes mean? Do I have to do something? Those numbers have befuddled me completely.
And yes I too found myself humming the Imperial March as I put the Star Destroyer together. I didn't even realise I was doing it initially!
RE: City Ambulance and Caravan. I got the latter in a sale and it is great fun to put together. I bought the Ambulance for the Father Unit and he had a great time putting it together (he works for the Ambulance service doing patience transport).
