    Reviews I've read say the same about block tech.
    Kre-o is very good

    How many pieces would you say was in that roughly. Just trying to compare with the box from the OP. Or does anyone know the weight of that box?

    Going price seems to be up to €150 when you include postage for 10kg on eBay

    Did you get it with Parcelmotel? Concerned it will be too large for a locker there.

    You can justify it to yourself by buying a raspberry pi and making a case for it :pac:

    Can you please post a link? When I go to Lego Store, it's coming up a lot more expensive than that.

    PS: Found it: http://shop.lego.com/en-IE/LEGO-Large-Creative-Box-10697?fromListing=listing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭phobia2011


    You need to add a single lego piece to the order, I think 8c is the cheapest, this brings you above €55 for free delivery.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,460 ✭✭✭ablelocks


    is there a link to the christmas train or does it add automatically?

    Thanks Phobia. Ordered the large classic set and added Simpsons 6 mini figures to get free shipping. 6 mini figures for 2.99 was a deal on it's own, I thought these sets are usually a lot more expensive than that. And got the free train set automatically added.



    Sweet. I am actually looking forward to Christmas now.. which is a first! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,564 ✭✭✭positron


    Quick heads up: Argos UK is setting Simpsons mini-figures series 2 for £0.99. It's still €3.49 here, but may be they will drop that price soon.

    I'm not getting any trainset added automatically, at the top it says theres an extra item in my basket but when I click through or go to checkout its no there?!

    And you've spent over 55 euro? Odd, it just appeared in my basket when I ordered.

    The train is on the Lego.com site

    Can't find these 6 mini figs for 2.99 do you have a link, only ones I can see are 2.99 each

    Checked the link in your post and I think that is for individual mini fig each made up of 6 pieces, head torso legs etc

    I think they got the wrong end of the stick as well. Even the description at the bottom says pretty much the same.
    6 mini figures for 2.99 they would have no stock guaranteed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,564 ✭✭✭positron


    Ah, one figure for 2.99 makes more sense. And yes, the description is very misleading.

    Just spent over 100 on that site. Got the classic + Santa's workshop.

    One of my boys wanted a train set so he should be happy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 745 ✭✭✭poitinstill


    not showing free shipping with the 8c piece to go over the 55 limit...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 170 ✭✭insullation


    Just be careful with Tesco as if you have multiple items in an order they often send them in separate boxes thus you pay parcel motel multiple delivery charges for the one order from tesco

    With double VIP points, means €10 off next purchase. 100 = €5

    Lego dimensions also €99 , which is very competitive.
