I just popped into my parents place and mum asked me to take some more stuff from my cupboard. I collected model cars when I was younger and I happened to put some in old Lego boxes. So now I actually have boxes for 8865 - Technic: Test Car, 6941 - Space Blacktron: Battrax, 6380 - Town Medical:Emergency Treatment Center and 6952 Space Classic: Solar Power Transporter. Also a 30cmx30cm card Lego logo which I might sell.

That's a pretty epic ship there!

I finished my large scale Morris Mini over the weekend. Just waiting on my bricklink order of a few parts needed to tidy it up a bit, then I will post pics. Also need to get myself some sort of lighting kit as I want the headlights to light up (I built it to accommodate an LED in each headlight).

Next project is a large scale XR8 ute... in lime green. Not sure if I'll have enough green bits though

This is very bad, in my study procrastination I bought a Lego kit yesterday and had so much fun I went and bought another one this arvo and have been looking new sets up all evening :/ I bought the City series Tipper Truck and Garbage Truck and the models are so much more real looking than the ones I remember when I was a kid. I want to build a whole damn city now haha.

My local target had about 10 of the R2D2s in stock. I'll probably get one in the sale, or at least layby for Christmas... if I can wait that long. Doubt it will ever be cheaper than $199 so worth getting... although, in the upcoming Toys R Us sale, they mention they will beat prices by a further 10% (I haven't read the fine print) and just lately they've been pretty stocked up on new sets.

Oh BTW there is a Big W toy sale on soon. Starts online on the 21st, had some ~$30 kits for $20 I might get a few

Free post if you spend over $50, sounds awesome!
