Waiting to build the Great Wave and the sunflowers pictures

They look great

TopCashback seems to be offering 15% cashback on Lego but I can’t make head or tail on which sets are eligible. Valid for the next day.

I’m definitely going to have to get these!

And so it begins..

@aeroplaneoverthesea I’m
watching Stranger Things with DD but I’m not loving it. I do like Hop and Dustin though. Dustin makes me laugh and I like Hop’s no nonsense manner. Joyce just sets me on edge though and I don’t think WR has aged much at all. Those cheekbones are amazing.
I really like the Batman asylum combo out in September. I’m not a Batman fan but I like the set. Looks lots of fun. I’m not a superhero kind of person. Passed me by completely. I did like Bananaman and Superted as a child though 🤣

Anyone do the free build thing at Smyths today? Couldn’t tolerate children (mine) enough to do it.

I’m hoping to get started on the Starry Night this week now that it’s the holidays. I’m trying to get the house sorted and really need some new shelves for all this Lego. Can anyone recommend any please?

Billy bookcases if possible lol! We got the slim one with the glass door in the hope to reduce dusting haha

From Ikea lol

I'm looking at the retiring by the end of the year lists, and wanting so many sets.

I think over the next few months I'll concentrate on just getting the ones that are retiring.

@Troubledwordsthe Orient Express is on my wish list. There’s a lot of sets said to be returning yet when I looked on the Lego website yesterday there was nothing listed. Some sets are in the sale but not many.
Im looking forward to the Halloween Wreath and seeing what Christmas sets come out in September. I’m surprised there haven’t been any leaks yet on Jay’s brick blog about Christmas sets. Halloween and Christmas sets are my favourites.

Alpine Lodge is on mine as I think it'll go well with the Christmas sets, maybe I'll have to treat myself to it as this year's Christmas decoration.

I also want the Diagon Alley set, I don't have space for it which is why I've not yet bought it, but if I don't get it will I regret it.

The alpine lodge is great with the other Christmas sets I have so I can recommend it.

Yes the Alpine Lodge us fun. I have that and the gingerbread house.

The Italian riviera set has been changed a lot, it doesn’t look anywhere near as good as it originally did but I guess they had to do that or it would have been even more expensive.

The one with the yellow boat propped up is the original.

@LegoTherapy - my shelves are from https://traditionalbeams.com/collections/special-offers

We’ve just finished the savannah diorama which is the 3rd in set so far

Built floral free gift tonight

Agreed . The original is lovely , not so much what they’ve produced for sale

I also agree. Looks a bit naff to me 🤷🏻‍♀️

You could buy a canoe and prop it up if there’s one on bricks and pieces.
I really like the set. We go in holiday 2 days after it’s due out so I won’t be able to order it straight away. If the local store has it I could go and get it. Or if I preorder will it be delivered on the 7th?

I was hoping to see it in person this morning, but the window display is the paddle steamer

Just to make your decision harder/clearer - there’s a GWP. I’m minded to order asap because it looked like a good one.
