Lego technic batmobile from the recent film.
Moving pistons, steering and plastic “flames” that spin out the back.

Comes with the “light brick” which has been around in Lego sets for quite a while, but this is my first set with them.

This one’s a bit of a monster, and an online competition prize… (woohoo, I never win anything!)

Brand new released set… only came out 1st August.

Airbus rescue helicopter. Load of new parts… new sized gears, new colour in the neon yellow and a new battery pack for the motors… (new, in as much as same design as some others but without Bluetooth control)

Through gears, motor powers the winch on the side, the landing gear and the rotors have two speeds.

Other manual functions are opening cockpit doors, sliding passenger doors, sliding engine covers and a bunch of levers that control the angle of the rotors, and the pitch of the rotor axis… seemingly just like the real thing.

Oops. Win another competition last night. Prize in a few days….


Big tow truck from 2017.
Motorised with remote control. Through the gearbox selection there is forward/reverse and steering…. Stability legs extend and retract…. Crane jib rotation, and lifting …… and crane winch rope.
Also has moving pistons, suspension and opening doors/ bonnet.

Very blocky design, but I like the teddy bear on the front. I had a spare bear, so doubled it up.

Ford Raptor pickup.
I don’t know why, but this one gets a lot of hate from a Lego technic Facebook group.

It’s got steering, moving engine pistons, suspension.
Ok, maybe it could be fitted with a front winch, and the headlights be clear parts instead of stickers..

And the colour!

Little Facebook marketplace purchase. Might trigger some folks on here though.

Brought out a couple years back to celebrate Pride month… A rainbow of colours to match the Pride flag.
Due to the subject matter, this is actually sold as an 18+ set…. It’s just bricks, plates and a load of mini figures…

I got it just as a collectors display piece.

And last night, won a gin hamper… oops!


Decided to build this one up recently, as I’ve ended up with a double…

Lego Friends…. But not the separate Lego Friends theme aimed at young girls.. (daughter had about 10 of those sets, so if I run out… I’ll start using hers)

No… Friends as in the TV program. This is the “Central Perk” coffee shop scene, but there’s also the apartments sets.

“How you doin’?”

I saw a 'Friends' set a few days ago. My son suggested I buy it. I told him in no uncertain terms where he could stick it. I'm not a fan!

It was never my first choice to be honest… and the repeats of the programme are very dated now…
I thought it might have increased in value a little after last years reunion, the release of the apartments set and the Gunther actors passing, but no.

I’ve still got a duplicate to sell on if you’re interested.??
 
A clue to the set I’m getting as a comp prize.

This is a Grand Prix car from 2013… set number 42000. Possibly the flagship set of that year.

Has front and rear suspension, steering and moving pistons.
Addition function is the gear wheel at the side that either opens the engine bay, or tilts the aerofoil at the back.

And the prize itself.
Took a couple days to build, just as I was working away yesterday.

The Maclaren F1 race car.
Not as functional as 42000 above, but still has steering, suspension and moving pistons.

Too. Many. Stickers!

So that’s 3 Lego sets, a dashcam and a gin hamper. So far.
 
Went to Ripon on Saturday and managed to drop on these sets in 2 different secondhand shops. Well chuffed.

can i have the two top ones pretty please????

I've been wanting the top one for ages but it commands too high a price normally. It was the first technic set my dad ever bought. I've already got the bits and tatty instructions, but always wanted a good boxed set.

I got them all for £88. And the lego is like brand new - really clean and shiny. Only had to take 10 parts from my own stock to make them all complete.
