Stu Faulkner Posted August 23, 2016 Posted August 23, 2016 I love Lego. Boys and toys, who'd have thought. But look what I've got. Even opening the box has me giggling. With a 1" thick build manual it will keep me busy. (for those of you who don't build lego, go on treat yourself. You get an accurate build manual and ALL the parts....... Whats that all about?) 2 Quote

Stu Faulkner Posted August 24, 2016 Author Posted August 24, 2016 I always spent more time building than I do driving. Quote

Nic Chase (NICO) - Shropshire & Mid-Wales AO Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Just looked at the price and the size. That's some model Stu!! Will you be starting a build thread? 1 Quote
Stu Faulkner Posted August 25, 2016 Author Posted August 25, 2016 Just looked at the price and the size. That's some model Stu!! Will you be starting a build thread? I should do Nick. I've spent five hours on it and I'm only 25% done. Quote
Nick Mace Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Lego technic is expensive but worth every penny in my view. I bought my son (it was for him and I've never touched it... ) the unimog one Christmas and it is utterly amazing. For his birthday we got the mindstorms kit (programmable lego robots) and that takes it another whole level. Quote

Stu Faulkner Posted August 27, 2016 Author Posted August 27, 2016 Update. 7 hours and only module 1 of 4 built. Four speed gearbox with flappy paddle gear change no less. (All the bits were there and no waiting time? I'm not used to this ) Quote
