Chaos at my local store today with double Insider points. One couple were leaving with around £800 of sets.

What sets did you get? The Lego shop near me gets really busy too, although it is nice to see sets displayed. I tend to buy online

@JaceLancsI'm after the coral reef and rainforest to complete the collection now I’ve finally got round to building the African Savannah and Northern Lights.

I’ve got my eye on the 3in1 telescope. In fact I like a few of the 3in1 sets. They look good fun. We do a fair amount of big sets but I enjoy a small, fairly quick set.

@LegoTherapy I got my Japanese Cherry Blossom from Wayland Games, but they're out of stock now. Argos may have the odd one come back if people have bought them and not collected?

The Penguins in Love GWP is live with a £70 spend threshold. I’ve ordered the tulips and love flower sign. I’ve counted up and I have 16 sets that were GWPs not including the ones I missed and got off vinted or eBay. I love GWPs!

@EverythingIsComputerit was a GWP last year. There’ll be sets on vinted and eBay. I’d like the coral reef and the other one that goes with the set of four from
that GWP series.

I’ve found my tribe!

I have about 20-30 sets to build in my stash.

My oldest set of a castle #375 I had as a child. It was released in 1978!

Im now doing F1 cars but also have the Up house, the Friends Coffee shop and a load of others to do. Daughter mainly has dinosaur or botanical sets

just some sets I’ve done this year so far.

I’ve built the Northern Lights Diorama today in between doing jobs. It was a nice and quick build. I’m running out of display space again though!
I’ve phoned round various stores today and none of them are getting the Japanese cherry blossom in stock. So frustrating. I wish I could at least back order it. It’s double points tomorrow so I’ll order Ds the set he’d like that’s due out in March. I might get the tulips.

I see the northern lights one is a GWP, has that offer finished now, I can’t work it out on the Lego website?

LegoTherapy · 27/01/2026 19:21

@ThisIsMyYearToFindMyselfif there’s been any pieces missing I’ve bought them off eBay or bricks and pieces on the Lego website.

LegoTherapy · 27/01/2026 19:20

My little daisies and lavender.

@JaceLancs We also go to brick fest type conventions

Any specific recommendations?

ThisIsMyYearToFindMyself · 27/01/2026 18:09

Thank you everyone. So is it a gamble if you buy an opened set as to whether all the pieces are there or not? I was looking through some retired sets, some of them I’d definitely be interested in if I was confident buying them.

LegoTherapy · 27/01/2026 07:29

I buy retired sets from eBay and vinted. I got Assembly Square for around £150 or £180 which was a massive bargain. I got two sets at Christmas from Amazon because the discount was more than the double Lego points would have given me but that’s very rare.

Somemothersdoavem · 26/01/2026 20:47

These Lego clogs made me laugh 😆
