We last built Stranger Things - The Upside Down which was a good build!

The International Space Station and the Apollo 11 Lunar Lander may be our next set.

The Lunar lander is def on the list (good call) and I like the saturn V rocket but not sure where that would go in the house.

Many thanks

Last one I bought was just before chtistmas. I got the remote control parts for my holiday train and a £6 Star Wars mini set. Now saving up for the Star Destroyer to go with my other UCS sets.

We have the Saturn V it’s one of my favourites. Ours is standing in a display case next to the TV :)



It doesn’t take up much space having it displayed vertically.

:d: My husband is lucky that we both love Lego! We are in a one bed flat so have to be a bit more careful about how many sets we buy otherwise we’d run out of room. We have the Disney castle on top of the kallax in the right of that photo. I’d love the Hogwarts castle too but that would definitely take up too much space sadly!

Our son loves cars, so we bought him the Lego Technic Porsche 911 RSR for Christmas. It took him ages to build it, apparently it was quite fiddly, which is good, keeps you entertained longer.

The only snag is we bought it from Asda and only paid around £96 and it came with a free Lego Technic 42093 Chevrolet. It's a lot more expensive now.

About 10 days ago . My grandsons birthday is April 10th and lego high on his list. Had to grab it quick before lockdown.

I'm tempted by the Saturn V (having seen one in Kenedy space centre) but may have to put it where the wifes flower vase is now. I'm sure she will appreciate the lego more:)
