Nice.
If anyone still has a Modelzone open then the Lego may be 30% off.

Ooh, a Lone Ranger. Actually, I quite like all those. Well, the Star Wars one is okay - I prefer Mini-figure compatibility.
Thanks for the heads-up.

Third off all Lego in Sainsburgeries. Everything except the City sets that just came out in last month. Some were in the seasonal aisle as well as regular toy section.

Saw lots of new Lego today. The Lone Ranger and Castle sets have hit all the usual suspects. Jabba's Sail Barge was in TRU and Smyths for an eye watering £100. One to wait on a sale for, methinks!
Lego remains a third off at Sainsburgeries.

Birthday present from friends over the weekend... www.brickset.com/detail/?Set=6912-1'Copter was fun to put together, rotating blades are nice. Curiously the 3rd wheel isn't used in 'copter form, meaning it just kinda rests back on it's back end. Not made the jet or boat yet.

Saw an emptied s11 minifig box in a WH Smiths.
In other news, John Lewis had the coastguard ship built in a display cabinet. I covet it. So much fun stuff in that set...

The Lego Batman book with the Electric Suit Batman minifig was £3 in Home Bargains. At that price I could not resist.

Keep seeing lots of nice Lego sets that I can't remotely justify owning right now in the coast guard and cargo lines (that fire helicopter is a bit of alright, too). Must keep away from toy sections as much as possible.
This didn't stop me acquiring the polybagged lawn mower today though. Great stuff.

I am considering picking up the Cargo Tiltrotor, and the Coast Guard Helo. But I am biding my time to strike... Karl

Found series 11 minifigs in Tesco yesterday. Grabbed one at random and got the Yeti, which is the main one I wanted from the set, yay!

It's the first series I've seen in a long while where I've looked at it and thought I want most of those.
Bought a full set from the e of bay for about £40. These hands ain't made for touching up blind bags

S11 in TRU Edinburger (don't usually see minifig bags there). Also the ASDA at the Jewel in Edinburger (bot not at my local store). I presume they will be everywhere very soon.
Star Wars 2013 Advent Calendar in Smyths. £25.

Then stay away from Tesco, where they have a very large Christmas chocolates section. I had a Milky Bar Polar Bear.

It's only September 1st. Other retailers will get them in soon. Not seen the City yet.
Ralph needs them and will get them nearer the required time.

Thankgoodness for series 11. Been too long since I have had fresh packets to feel. Quite a challenging series to feel for this time, I think.

Karl and I saw the Star Wars, City and Friends Advent calendars in the Lego Shop in Glasgow on Sunday. The City calendar doesn't seem to have a particular theme, but it does have... I'm not going to spoil it. Suffice to say that someone is decorating a Christmas tree in the most splendid way possible.

The Star Wars and City ones will be picked up. They have brightened the last few Decembers with their daily dose of brick joy.

2014 SW set listings Some superb battle pack action there lego.wikia.com/wiki/2014Found some pics in a video: Aww yeah, Royal Guards and Death Star Troopers in the same battlepack. Nice. Not sure about the super deformed ships replacing the planets (anyone seen Planets Wave4 yet?)

Well, the Death Star battle pack is all that appeals to me, so that's a relief. Cheap year! All I want from SW Lego now is a new Jawa Sandcrawler (or a drastic drop in the after-market price of the original), and reasonable-sized versions of the Rebel Transport, Nebulon B Frigate and the outside of the Mon Calamari Cruiser. Actually, just the frigate would do.

In due course I will be picking up the City and Star Wars advent calendars. I liked having a daily brick dose last year and I think I may enjoy having the same this year.
