   Amazed that the SSD has not had a UK reduction given it's apparent unpopularity. Would it kill them to knock it down to the US RRP (after currency conversion = £258)?

Errrm, not quite sure how to tell you this without causing upset. There are 3096 parts, at one brick a month it will take you 258 years. Fine, if you're a vampire. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, good luck though, we're all counting on you.

   There is another issue, although I have never seen it this badly warped.... and that is that early Cellulose Acetate 1:87 LEGO vehicles can be warped... although I don't ever remember seeing it as badly as this particular #258 VW Van. Also the non-warped VW Van next to it has ARAL (petrol station) stickers, and those are…

5. Re: Discounts on LEGO Exclusives

   

   Comment by Basta · December 2013 · Home› Buying & Selling Topics

   ^ it may have had an impact but the bigger thing, at least for the newer exclusives would be the more competitive pricing, availability & lower Australian dollar. For instance the SOH has been avaliable locally for as low as $285 AUD ($258 USD) which means the discount that set would need in the US to make it worth selling…

6. Re: Yellow brick in boot of 10262: James Bond Aston Martin DB5

   

   Comment by LegoStevieG · January 1 · Home› Collecting

   I have now built the Aston Martin DB5. It was enjoyable. I discovered that Step 221 used the yellow brick I was referring to above. Also step 258 used the same yellow brick in the black ejector seat. Step 252 used 2 of these bricks in black (part of roof) which when complete are mostly hidden. So by swapping black for…

8. Re: LEGO HO Scale 1:87 Cars/Trucks

   

   Comment by Istokg · February 2015 · Home› Collecting

   Here are some real combinations of LEGO buses/vans/pickups. And this is just the red/white combos... there's also green/white, blue/white, red/yellow, green/yellow and blue/yellow. And then there's all the rare combos that makes collecting these without some kind of guide difficult. The 1:87 cars/truck history gets very…

   Comment by Istokg · April 2020 · Home› Collecting

   
I hear ya... 90% of these were only sold in Europe... and Europeans find these at flea markets, boot sales, etc... they are just rare in the USA... so we don't get the opportunity that Europeans do to buy these. Even little Croatia (part of communist Yugoslavia in the 1960s) had these... and had the very rare all…

10. Re: What's your LEGO 'status' today?

    

    Comment by Yodalicious · April 2017 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    ^ Definitely excuse No. 82. Also... No. 258 - Because someone standing by the brick-built Hulk asked me to take their picture. No. 317 - Because there is no LEGO store where I live. (Even though I'm only 90 miles away.) No. 578 - Because LEGO is an "educational" toy for my sons. No. 622 - Because I took a wrong turn trying…
