I know it is an old model, but I really enjoyed watching the 919 racing, so had to get the model.

The model is slightly different as it’s a tweaked MOC but I suspect they’ll fit the standard Lego design, too!

Just finished Barad Dur. Fantastic build, and it's enormous! Got a light kit on its way. Only real minor point with it is the eye lights up, but only if you hold the button on. It would have been better with an on off switch..

Looks great and good on you for building the Fell beast. I bet many of those are squirrelled away unopened waiting to be sold at crazy prices.

It might be possible that you were looking in the wrong aisle.

Buy the Jaws set, then hang on a few months for C3-PO when it’s discounted at Smyths. Probably will be £99.99 before or after Christmas.

Anyone else having issues with Amazon recently? I’m currently in the process of returning my third set in as many months. Yet another set arrived damaged redface. Over the years I have generally found them to be fine but lately it’s been a st show.

I guess packaging isn't treated well in the warehouses and ultimately most people don't care as they throw it away as soon as it's opened. It's only weirdos like us that want pristine packaging. Often Amazon also consider the Lego carton to be acceptable for shipping and just slap a label on it and get it out the door; you can choose to have it put into packaging at the checkout which should protect it.

That said, it's pretty rare now that Amazon are actually the best value for Lego - I usually check John Lewis, Argos, Very, Smyths, Disney Store, Zavvi and even Asda etc to compare pricing.

Picked up the Emperor's Throne Room diorama on Amazon yesterday for £60 as opposed to te £90 from lego
