    Not a super exciting delivery from S@H, but I wanted to nab the hub and motor for the upcoming train when it was back in stock.
    Treated Little Miss Speedy to a couple of the new Friends cubes and got another Lamborghini polybag to add to my trade stash.

    Wizzair appears to be keeping their new Sofia<-->Billund route so we might be able to go there soon. I was assuming it would just get axed with covid.
    Saying “Wizzair” out loud always makes me smile...🙂

    One of our cats knocked an engine off the #7191 UCS X-Wing on top of our display cabinets. I went to put it back on only to find the yellowing bug has struck on the underbelly and leading edges of the wings. Not going to get too worked up about it (it almost helps the look of a well-used Rebel fighter) but our Disney Castle sits right next to it...

    Finished the Creator pirate ship #31109. I really like that it is all brick built, even the sails! On the other side, half of the building time went into sideways building 4 sub assemblies for the bow and rear sections and that was boring / repetitive.
    So I have mixed feelings about the building process but the result is in my opinion superb.
    It would go well when integrated with #31085 Pirate Roller Coaster.
    Well, maybe I will try this myself :-)

    My Lego S@H orders. I currently have 5 open orders. I made them from the 1st of June to the 6th when they became available. I also put one in today. They shipped 80% of one order a week or so after I made the order. Then sent a small set the next day and I'm still waiting on another small set in that order.
    It took them days to move my orders from In Process to In Warehouse. Then tonight they ship the order I made on the 3rd, but not the orders I made before it.
    Then the order I made yesterday went from In Process to In Warehouse within 5 minutes.
    I give up. That said I do enjoy checking in every so often and seeing the latest. That's part of the fun for me with online orders.

    Moved into a new office last week. Gave me a reason to finally build #75243. I’m thinking I may build a stand for it now.

    My status is packing all my Lego for a move that will (hopefully) quickly be followed by another one. :/

    I saw that on a US store calendar, but didn't know if it was going to be the same in the UK as well. Quite a nice little treat set for my daughter if it is.

    Me too!  All I could guess was that it was Wonder Woman’s Invisible Pirate Ship...

    I could see it just fine the first time you posted it. Maybe it's different browsers people are using or something.
    Speaking of pirates. I started building the Creator Pirate Ship and my Barracuda Bay order from the 1st of June shipped and should be delivered tomorrow.

    Those trains look amazing.  They have the old magnet types too.

    I tried to challenge myself by adding some sort of interior in the UCS Star Destroyer. To be honest, the lack of interior never really bothered me, but I wanted to see if it could be done. And it can, sort of.



    Pretty happy with it, might end up trying something on the other side as well.

    Blocks magazine has been dedicating a good section of each edition for the last five months to how to MOC an interior. As somebody who really doesn't care for Star Wars, it's a massive waste of 10 or so pages of each edition for me - but perhaps you would enjoy it!

    Just built #76165 Iron Man. Even though the pictures didn't look as good as I hoped for, I knew I had to get this as a nice display piece. Thankfully, I think it looks a lot better in person. Still not perfect, but definitely satisfying enough for me. I hope these helmets continue -  between this and the Star Wars sets, I think Lego has hit something.

    Finally got to visit the LEGO Store today, it just reopened! Made a video of the experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce8j4CDuFcQ, Pick a Brick was a totally different procedure!

    Sorting, sorting, sorting and I came across this tub which has clearly been repurposed. The LEGO smells lovely.

    The Harry Potter sets were re stocked on our S@H so I'm hoping they also got sent out to retail stores and my local store gets them in stock this week

    In my Lego room there is a big leather swivel chair that belongs to my wife, her dad has broken his one and wondered if he could have ours. Its currently a dumping ground for instructions and odd sets we've built. Its also as wide as a shelving unit I have in the room already. Clearance has been granted for more display space and a second shelf. Should tidy things up nicely

    @KungFuKenny, that is beautiful! Still need to find parts for this!

    Nice Calvin & Hobbes collection on the shelf behind #918 too.

    There's something to be said about the simplicity and sturdiness of older Lego. You can play with them without small pieces flying off all over the place.

    My Haunted House came today. I have complained about the company Lego use to deliver here before but they have been great lately. Every set delivered when they said it would. This during a time when they would be overrun with deliveries. I was expecting my orders to be held up a few days with Toll and I wouldn't have minded but no.
    Well done Toll.

    Hopefully the new Harry Potter sets are in stock when I go shopping tomorrow.

    Was up at 1130 last night so thought I'd stay up till midnight and place my order for #10277 To my surprise it was available already so I clicked, sorted my VIP points but couldn't get the 12in1 or the Lambo polybag to add. Didn't want to miss out so purchased it and went to bed. Just rang CS and they apologised and will send the GWP on separately. The Crocodile is now showing as back order until mid July.

    I was inspired over the weekend ( largely by @Mr_Cross ) to work on re-working #6861 X1 Patrol Craft into a Blacktron 1 color scheme...

    Pleased with the results, I was able to add a few others from existing parts, including BT versions of #891 , #897 , #918 , and #6823 ...


    Next weekend I’m planning on staging an epic face-off with their Classic Space counterparts!

    Seriously LEGO bring Blacktron and Classic Space back, I need this in my life. Can one of the next Ideas Sets be a Classic Space Inspired Blacktron Space Base or something?

    Further to the other days post, the chair is out, the shelves are built and in place. The bottom shelf is now full of all the various books I've gathered and the excess on a pile for the charity shop (how many DK Batman visual dictionaries with Electro Batman minifig do you need? Three is not the answer!) Need to empty the various piles out of the other bedrooms and landing and fit it all back in now

    Got a text this morning and my Harry Potter sets were in stock. Hopefully some of the new Batman sets are still in stock when I go there next week.
    We have also had some panic buying here again. Toilet paper aisle was bare except for a few rolls. Idiots. Absolute idiots. The cluster isn't even in this city or state.
    It's almost like the Simpsons Hurricane episode. I look forward to eating creamed eels and wadded beef every time a new cluster of coronavirus breaks out.

    Thats a quick turn around from S@H and they managed to sort out my GWP issue in a separate package that arrived at the same time. Excited to cut the seals and start building.
