Couple that with the £10 voucher in the catalogue and the Nutcracker should make it really good deal.


Just a heads up - when I ordered a set with the £10 off voucher, it removed the bonus set (at the time it was the 24-in-1). I checked with customer service and it's a 'not combinable with any other offers' type voucher. Would be worth checking if the same applies with the nutcracker.

Interesting, was it removed during the checkout process or after the order was processed?

I'm not sure - I wasn't expecting it to happen. I saw it was added when I put the qualifying set in the basket - but I didn't notice until I got my confirmation e-mail that it was gone.
I've received multiple offers before, so it was quite a surprise to see it removed, with nary a whisper(!)

Will you now take a screenshot of your post of your tweet of your picture, and put it on Facebook?

Urgh. Who do you think I am? I don't use Facebook.

Only reason I posted it as a tweet is because it's extra faff to upload from a phone to post on here.

Just bought a TV wall mount to start getting the Falcon up.

This can only end well! :dread:

I'd like a video, really. The Lego mounting equivalent of this:

Finished the Winter Village station. Despite reservations over the value, it was a really nice set to build and has some lovely touches.

I definitely need to work on some better lighting, but it looks smart under the tree with the train going past :wub:

We now need to build the Toy Shop set, which will sit alongside it. I'm saving Santa's workshop for next year.

It's £180 on Toys R Us and £182 on Very (you can generally find a new customer discount for Very but it may mean taking their credit, which you can then settle in full before the charges begin).
