Finished my christmas shopping today and I kinda caved in to a childish need of mine.......

.. bought myself a nice big set of lego technic..... lol

This one to be exact

Gona eventually get on to building that one but for now, im sticking to it's alternate version which is this.

So yeah....

This is my setup lol

This is gona be fun

time of start 4:45pm

holy shit post pics

gona post like maybe... every 30 minutes.... if I take note of the time lol

I've always loved Legos. I'd still buy them today if they weren't so ungodly expensive for molded plastic. I like the look of those new Hobbit Lego sets, but they're more expensive than any games I buy lol. Plus I gave most of mine away to a 10/11 year old cousin of mine. Definitely kept my Millenium Falcon though, that's my Lego centerpiece.

Agreed, they do cost quite a shiny penny to get.

update #1

This thing is bigger than what it seems on the pics lol

an other update

an other update afer I ate a bit.

Just to say, that green box in the backis long enough to fit a 12'' ruler in it... and the car so far is longer than that

And here it is finished..... at least the alternate build... gona tackle the actual build tomorrow....

gotta say I had fun doing this thing ^^

cRAZY

Oh damn, that turned out cool as hell.

And here are some pics of the main version of the build.... no pics of the build process... but damn.. this thing is huge.

Took me a good 4 hours to build.... not including the time to pick the other apart.

Holy crap. Awesome stuff. I never really had the patience for the big kits like these.

...Legos....

I hate you . . .

On topic, cool Lego set dude.

Oh I think I know why you say that lol. I don't look forward to the day in the unforeseeable future when I'll have to buy overpriced Legos for a child. I'd probably mess with them myself when they're not looking though.

EDIT: Oh I see now that PK explained it. Silly obsession with semantics

Anyways, that technic car set looks awesome.

Tomorrow ->

BUILDING TIME!

Awesome.  How long did that one take?

4 and a half hours... give or take 15 minutes.

Damn. Quite a long build, but totally looks worth it.

Very much worth it.

 

Think is just over 22 inches long and is massive.

 

 

Overall looks very cool and was fun as hell to put together.

 

Piece count goes up to 1200.

Took morgan to a toy show yesterday and they were selling the little lego people for $25 each.....i about sh$t
