Check the following two sites for loads of train and track options:-

Thanks for this.

Just ordered about £70 worth of track so hopefully it turns up and fits ok.

I checked eBay but not that much out there, and nothing going cheap really.

I ordered some track from YourWobb a while back for my Lad to use with his Lego train sets, all worked together without issue.

Been decorating, realised the white plastic on my Saturn V has yellowed, looks terrible.

Mine is still boxed in the wardrobe. Scared to build it incase it yellows.

Good lad! I'm still impressed by how solid the kit is. Took me about 8.5hrs with breaks to finish. Then a further couple of hours to fit the light kit.

I will say the Brixmaxx kit for the 9x8 isn't as good as the one for the RSR, no remote or customisability. Felt a bit ripped off considering it was the same price as the RSR light kit.

@throwaway4372 how long have you had that built and on display?
Is yellowing of white lego parts a common issue?

 

[b0rn2sk8]

Yes, it’s pretty normal, particularly if it gets direct sunlight.

Ah I see, I'll have to keep that in mind!

What's the best way to dispose of lego? Nobody's going to want a yellow Saturn V, do I just bin it, or is there a better way?

 

[b0rn2sk8]

Sell it, someone will take it.

Edit: I’m sure I’ve seen some people cure some yellowing, might be worth a Google.

This really sucks. I have a few models that have gone same way. They look really bad.

I actually haven't bought a lego set in ages.
Starting to see it as "clutter" as time goes on

Guessing my concorde will Turn yellow next

I would like a yellow Saturn V. I would pay postage if you want to recycle it to me? It would still be fun to build for me.

Has anyone built bowser on here? I've just stuck the first leg on, but I thought I'd done something wrong as it doesn't sit straight (although its hard to determine if that's right or wrong with only a single leg on).

How does this stuff fare, quality and instructions wise?

How does this stuff fare, quality and instructions wise?

I'm impressed, very impressed

The bricks feel slightly different and one or two can be a bit tight to fit or unlock, but in the main, the quality is impressive for the price

Instructions are just like official Lego. Not quite as thick and glossy paper but the same in terms of content and layout

Progress on the latest kit

And on to the last batch of bags
