Latest Lego Releases Coming Soon... - Nigels - 04-28-2017
Now i know Mr AC is probably on the ball, but I'd just like to bring your attention to a couple of truly excellent Lego sets coming in the next month or so.
The first one is a creator expert model of a carousel, not only does this look awesome but it is fully functional as well (and can be motorised with the power functions stuff), here's a vid (specially for AC);
Price is as you'd expect quite high, but I think it is emminently worthwhile and possibly the first in a new fairground range knowing Lego, if so I can't wait for a motorised roller coaster!!
The other is again a must have for any true Lego fan, a new 'ideas' range model, of a Saturn V rocket, this is around a metre tall (or 3 and a bit foot if you're old like me
). This is due out around May/June time also. Featuring 1969 pieces (nice touch that), it's around the £100 GBP range apparently. Here's some more details for you;Lego Saturn V Rocket

That Carousel is pretty cool and the Saturn Rocket would be huge.

Totally agree Super, I'll definitely be getting the Saturn V as I've already got the earlier Space Shuttle release from a few years back - I mean the expert/collectors version complete with the fuel tanks/booster rockets. The two together should be awesome.
Also really fancy the carousel, they really are pushing out some cool stuff recently...

Lego has previously released two other "fairground" themed sets, though they are not officially classified as such as they are under the expert line: The Fairground Mixer and the Ferris Wheel.

Handy to know thanks Fred

So who's up for the latest Lego Star Wars UCS kit due in the near future?
Millenium Falcon UCS
Not only is it an eye-watering £649, but it is apparently the largest lego kit ever sold with some 7,500 pieces to it!!
No doubt a collectors item which for the most part will sadly be snapped up by 'speculators' and be destined never to see the light of day, unless you pay the outrageously ramped up prices in coming years. Just for the record the older Millenium Falcon UCS kit sells second hand for some £1,000+ on eBay apparently.
Still who knows maybe AC will treat me to one for bringing it to his attention (hehehe)...
If anyone is interested there are also a whole slew of new kits for the new Star Wars movie too (The Last Jedi) including a quite nice Star Destroyer at a more reasonable £129...

AC did a reveal video...

I am still unsure... We are not really a Star Wars Lego collector. We do have a few, but Evan never played with them. This one is interesting as it is HUGE. I do not even have a room to put it in, unless in the middle of the dinning table. We will see.

I thought you'd have at least 3 by now AC!!!
