Star Wars has fallen into the hideous mech (meh!) realm, Darth ,Boba and a snowtrooper, hope that it gets parked there. The miniaturization of ships was tolerable and the planet's were great ,seems reverse is the gear of choice

The ships could have been made a little bigger

March 1st speed champs F1 ,9wide but the proportions are right, 27euro not so much ,for 245pieces! BMWs look wrong on both parameters. Also 36euro for 2 McLarensis ok.

Return bottle lego fund have me 60393 ,8 euro with Tesco Clubcard. I hadn't experienced the steerable wheels before and I'm impressed. Set is slightly lame as cat is ownerless, and the tree is poor. The pick-up is cramped and very minimalist but it does look ok

Smyths showings sets ,available 1st June,there's a city centre but 210euro although 2010 pieces. Pre-order price promise seems a ripoff as it should come under 200. I'd imagine there'll be a lot of 1x1s for detailing .14 figs too though

There's €60 off this set now at Smyths!  https://www.smythstoys.com/ie/en-ie/toys/lego-and-bricks/lego-city/lego-city-60380-downtown-city-centre-reconfigurable-modular-building-playset/p/222990

Too rich for my blood , and where to put it! The big rigs are in my blurry sights or the heavy crane. I might get lucky and get the open top bus

With the dreamzz poly today ,I've also gotten 2 dreamzz sets ,both panda sets . The black /white  came with one extra part from the main build before an alternate build, but the red panda has heaps of extras (not a problem as they're reusable anyway), I like these better than mechs (especially the Star Wars ones) although I didn't want to by into this theme as I didn't want to dismantle to make the other builds. I was interested in the initial wave with some vehicles and bad guy builds but they never dropped in price when I had money
