I guess the price goes up once they've retired. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lego-10242-Creator-Expert-Classic/dp/B00M0ETSWU They sure do. Many buy more than one when they come out as an investment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oodboo Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 All done and in the cupboard now. I'm gutted I missed the mini when it was in the Lego shop. Can still get the beetle and camper van so they're pretty high on the wish list. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coops Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Not jealous at all @ChrisT 😁 Wanna swap - I can offer the preparation of a 244 page logistics contract included all legal wording and annexes? Sounds fair yeah? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oodboo Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Has anyone tried the 3rd party light kits you can get? Been looking at the lights for the batmobile, mustang and even the speed champions sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oodboo Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 There are a few for the speed champions on Amazon but they tend to cost more than the car. Might get one and give it a try one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might get one and give it a try one day. Got to be worth a try. I'm looking at some of my speed champs and it looks tight in there. The larger models no doubt will fit easier. I'm all done on the ZR1 now, no more fun For £24 it's pretty good value. Pistons move up and down and there's a little gear at the back which you twist to make the steering work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oodboo Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Just found the speed champs Audi Quattro S1 for 12.99 so ordered one, going to get the lights for it next week. Saved trying to stuff it into my existing Audi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
