This will be fun to add to the collection. Here is a time lapsed build of the kit.

 

Already pre-ordered one yesterday, delivery will start around June 7th, they do have some backorders I assume

 

My other half was In Milton Keynes for a meeting, so has kindly picked mine up for me. Pics later.

 

no way..you mean you got one already? That's not ok!

 

Indeedy. Of course she did have to try and pull my leg... but you can't kid a kidder.

Her: "Are you sure you reserved a kit - because they're looking at me oddly in the shop"
Me: "Yes, I did. And how are they looking at you? Did you drive into the shop? As it sounds awfully like you're on hands free in the car, Dear."

 

Just ordered mine from Amazon.
No backordering mentioned yet

 

Yay!

Freebies too!

 

Green with envy (in a good way)

 

The instructions are a hefty tome!

 

Lol 12 in line at my store.

 

Wow gotta call a friend at Lego store.

 

Absolutely outstanding set!

 

Picked mine up today in Glasgow store. Think I may need to wait for a rainy day to put this one together.

 

..anyone with a sophisticetad guess what greatoldone is doing right now?

 

Bellevue Lego store doesn't answer their phone and doesn't have voicemail. I wonder what they're all doing.

 

Wrong. The two of us went out for dinner and then saw Wonder Woman at the local flicks.

 

Ordered mine last night, hope to get it soon. The architecture, creator, and ideas series all have some pretty cool stuff. Sopwith Camel probably my favorite build with controllable elevator and ailerons. When I started collecting watches my wife sighed and said "great, just like Legos". Bookshelf with various sets where my 16 month old can't reach them yet. Saving all my big Star Wars and London landmark Creator sets for when he's older.

 

That Sopwith Camel is amazing! What's up with the empty boxes?

I've got some larger Star Wars pieces still in box and some of the Architectural pieces also. Foogirl got me The Falling Water Lego set for my B day then said surprise and gave me the tickets to fly across the US and get a tour of the house.

 

Came as packing/filler for a toy for my then 1 year old son. He played more with the boxes than any other thing he's ever received.


More Camel shots. When I first built I mentioned on a different forum the Rhone rotary engine on the Lego set had 8 cylinders while the actual one had 9. Got called out hard for being a nerd.

 

Keep your wallets open.

What do you all make of this?

We have a launch commit and we have a lift-off. The Eagle will land on 7.7.17.

I know it's referring to the LEM Eagle but looking at the rocket ignition in the clip I'm thinking a launch tower is coming.
