    I was drooling over it in the Lego store in Glasgow at the weekend. Great looking set

    Hows it building?
    Picked it up today, the box alone is impressive. Really impressive. Alas into the queue it goes until I figure out where to display and what it displaces

    Too much going on at the minute to start into it, but yeah, that's one beast of a box!

    So, there's 24 numbered bags in the box, and two unnumbered bags! Bags 1-10 are all in a second box within the big box!
    Had I got it and started earlier, could almost have been like a Batman Advent calendar... :D

    Did bag 1 & 2 last night:
    End of bag 1

    End of bag 2

    So far it has been an incredibly satiisfying build, with lots of technics elements clipping together in a variety of ways, and is pretty sturdy at that so far. The mechanism for turning the front wheels was very interesting to put together too.

    Nice, can really get a sense of scale from that.

    Did you get the smaller version as well? Would be interesting to see the two side by side.

    Yeah, but I'm currently trying to decide whether to build it, keep it boxed, or gift it to my brother... :o

    Yeah, filled the form in for the missing piece. Disappointing, especially when it was so near the end, as bag 24 is the stand for it, but not the end of the world!

    Is it a common piece? Or if its not seen can you sub it for a different colour?

    Double height black 2x1 (2x1x2?)
    Very much visible!
    Not too bothered by waiting for it, as I just got the stranger things set as a birthday gift!

    Merry Christmas/whatever you celebrate!
