Man
The kids have started to get into Lego and i could buy so much stuff but its damn expensive.

Really tempted to get Eco 1 but at £45 its that or a PS3 game

Seen the Wall-e as well and that looks pretty cool

Is there such a think as a lego hire service so i could build the sets but not pay all the $$$ for them??

I'd take the Lego.

popped into the LEGO store in Glasgow and saw TBBT set. While I love the figures, I just wasn't impressed by the rest

Went to the Glasgow LEGO store to check out the new SW sets.All looked sweet, of course the most wanted minifigs come in the most expensive/not-so-good sets
Buidable figures I will definetly get more of. It was hard picking between Jango, kenobi & Cody but went with Jango in the end.Grievous is by far the best, he looks like he was designed just for this this toy line! He towers - literary - over the rest, but is also the most expensive -you can pick up both Jango & Cody for the same price as Grievous.Luke is is the worst IMO, looks botoxed to death
Also picked up TIE fighter advanced prototype polybag & the real reason for coming in - WALL-E

I finally dipped into the LEGO Star Wars pool a few months ago. Now, the sets are accumulating at an alarming rate. Lol.

I wound up getting all seven new sets at a midnight release on Force Friday. Still trying to find the time to build them all. I really like the X-Wing and TIE Fighter sets.

The only disappointing thing for me was the exclusive brick from Toys 'R' Us. I would've much preferred a minifigure.

At the LEGO store I went to they said for FF they had the same minifig that was released for May the Fourth - Admiral Yulli I Think? Bit of a pain that you have to spend X amount JUST on SW - I Would have qualified with all I bought

They had a sign saying 50 extra VIP points if you purchase the Slave 1 but nooo way was I hauling that to Inverness!! Had too much stuff as it was
Besides, I still have to build my year-old UCS Tumbler & would rather have the Falcon than Slave 1
