I got the Elf a while back through the power if blind, random chance. Fortuna sometimes smiles on me. I do like the look of Lincoln -"Four score and ten bricks ago...", and Panda Guy does look grand. Quite like Grumpy Cop Guy as well. I think my LCPD could do with a Rogue Cop whose been busted down to street patrol... Karl

"Calamity Drone"? A female cowboy robot?
*realises there are pictures further down the page*
Sweet. Primus. There's an evil robot prospector too!

Those movie sets are pretty crazy.
Looks like I'll be Paisley bound at some point over Christmas & New Year!

Must be a few movie spoilers in those sets so... The look of terror on the hero's minifig face in every set is pretty funny. He must spend most of the movie screaming in terror. Castle Cavalry set with knights in a flying machine Load Business's trousers are amazing.

I am going to have to snag myself a copy of this on one of my next walks. Can always do with new minifigures.

I can confirm the minifig has a silver and not gold harness! He is now on the warpath with his eagle cannon. Magazine itself isn't bad for the target market. £3.25 for that and a minifig is quite reasonable. If there's a minifig each issue I will be unable to resist.
I would like it to do well. Imagine other Lego theme mags with minifigs...

Do not make me imagine a LEGO City Magazine, with new LEGO blokes each issue, I would be almost forced to purchase it!

Naturally, issue 1 would have to have a Spence clone. Actually, with the popularity of blind bag waves, I can see a City mag selling... -Ralph

Loads of Price Match promos on Lego in John Lewis. Too many to go into. The big Coast Guard boat set down from £60 to £42. Darn! Wrong time of the month for me.
Additionally, they have a sale on Galaxy Squad lego. 20% off all sets until 5th December.

Despite it being the second largest city in Britain, Brum doesn't have a John Lewis! Apparently that giant Terry-Gilliam-meets-Kevin-O'Neil metal mouth above the new entrance to New Street station is going to be one, but it won't be open until February 2014. Next nearest branch is in Solihull 8 miles away. I'm sure there's a bus or something.
I might go tomorrow.

Considering how Brum is one half strip bars and one half general retail, I am surprised at the lack of a JL!

The new Police Helicopter looks fantastic. That might be a future aquisition I think. (My LCPD units are tending towards being the airmobile unit at the moment)

Did Lego Star Wars Planets s4 come out over here?
I can see them on the website but have never seen them in the shops

Post by The Doctor on Nov 12, 2013 19:25:15 GMT
Never saw them. I think shops being clogged with series 1 and 2 did not help and 3 vanished quickly round these parts.
In other news, have a look at the Block Tech sets in The Works. One of them is a KO of the Lego x-wing down to the same colours!!!

They were buried away behind a couple of the very unimpressive looking police-station sets. It is well beyond the point where you could advance of defense of "just influenced by". Karl

Oo! A revised V-wing with a different weapons fit - I can see myself having some debates with the fiscally responsible half of my brain over that.
The Airport Fire Truck however is a must - it is gorgeous.
Besides, with the amount of fighters of various tech-bases, and their ordnance, in this house - I think it is only a prudent investment...
