LEGO at it's BEST
" This is LEGO at it's BEST! A fantastic build with so much play value. You have to have a fleet of them for all those deliveries of those great sets. Place one of these trucks on your work desk and smile all day long. This set will brighten up any shelf as a display piece or even better is so much fun to drive around your LEGO Town.
SIMPLY BRILLIANT LEGO a true classic today. "

Have Pizza, will Travel
" What a brilliant set this is, lots to do and a fun time was had building it with our daughter. The Bus is very interesting, with the double doors and all those windows. Plenty of seats for the passengers and with the adverts on the message boards they really add that touch of authenticity to the vehicle.
The Skateboard and Bike repair shop is a simple design which works very well. You can easily add your own Lego to expand the building so you can include all those skateboards and bikes that you have.
The Pizza Shop is compact but tall. It will fit into any existing Lego City layout easily. In the Pizza shop there is an oven to cook the pizzas, it has a fun lever that opens the door when pulled. Simple but fun to use. Seating for four diners, each floor can be separated for extended play.
The bus stop is a nice touch. It adds realism to the playing of the set where you must agree the Bus is really the star.
Highly recommended and a must have for any Lego City Fan. Good fun and at a great price. Lego just gets better and better. "

Smooth Ride
" This sports car is a great build, with it's clever design and low stance you have to drive it fast. The front and rear ends are innovative and bring a touch of class to this cheaply priced model.
Hopefully the tree and the car won't meet but if you do have a fender bender then you can use the emergency phone to call the recovery Tow Truck.
We bought a few of these cars to upgrade our car lot.
The Mini figure has an executive look about him right down to the new hair style.
Who doesn't want a nice shiny red sports convertible? Mmm Lovely !

Brilliant LEGO Box
" This Lovely LEGO box is ideal for sorting out your LEGO.
18 compartments in all.
Height of box top of studs is 155mm. To the handle 190mm.
Width 225mm
Length 330mm.
When these boxes are stacked the handle fits into the base of the next box. Very sturdy !
The box has a moulded lid with 6 studs on the top. The stud sizes are, depth 24mm with a diameter of 62mm.
The stud tops pull off, the lids are interference fit, these are quite sturdy and don't fall off unless pulled. There is a slot in the lid for the handle to go through.
The inner top tray is 205 mm wide by 310 mm long. depth 45mm.
The six moulded compartments are 100 mm x 100 mm x 4 the 2 middle compartments are 102 mm x 90 mm as the handle passes through the middle of the tray.
The base which houses the middle section has inner compartment walls with a depth of 60mm.
The base compartments are 103mm x 105mm. The 2 inner compartments are 102mm x 90mm.
The outer walls are 122mm tall. The handle base is screwed on to the base from underneath and is very strong.
For LEGO this box is brilliant, for an adult tool box it needs some modifying to fit screwdrivers and chisels, hammers etc. The compartments are too short. Great for screws etc. The base inner walls could be be cut down possibly with a dremel saw leaving 5 to10mm wall for strength. If the base just had 2 large sections then this would be the ideal stackable adult tool box. Open tool boxes always look dusty and untidy, with the LEGO lidded version they are great, just a bit of do it yourself needed if real tools are to be stored.
One last thing, if you are using this box for non LEGO items, craft sewing, fishing tackle tools ect, be aware that it looks like a LEGO toy box then Children will want to play with it. Little fingers and sharp items do not mix.
As with all LEGO containers, if the contents are for adults and sharp or harmful to Children, be careful where the boxes are left lying around. Keep your children safe and have fun with these great LEGO products.
Highly recommended for children and adults ! "

LEGO at its BEST !
" If you haven't got one or two of these sets then you are not a real LEGO lover. The complexity of the build, the sorting of all those new colors and elements, WOW. You should be arrested for having all that fun. It will take you a few hours to build, which adds to the excitement. The new Minifigures and animals are lovely. The innovative use of the 1X1 brick for birds is simply outstanding.
A truly wonderful set which is already a design classic. Well done LEGO and many more please. A great set to start adding your own pieces to and having a great display. Then spend many hours playing with the little people. Invite the Pirates over for some looting! "

It's LEGO Time !
" Wow this is perfect. A lovely watch in a Yellow metal presentation tin. All of the coloured pieces clip together very well making it totally adjustable and the overall effect is great. Everyone should have one of these. Very noticeable when at work. You keep fiddling with it and wish you were playing with the bricks or is that just me?
Simply BRILLIANT !

Book Ends
" These look fantastic, they have a metal base with a soft foam covering so they won't scratch your shelf. They are very strong and hold the books upright nicely as you would expect. The only down side is the Brilliant printed Lego logo isn't visible when the books are on the shelf. All you see are the ends of the bricks. Maybe if Lego turned the wall around 90 degrees then it would be superb? That aside you they are worth getting just for the LEGO logo and making a feature of the book end face on. Recommended for all Lego collectors. "

Quality Storage Set.
" These Kitchen storage sets are made of excellent quality 2mm thick acrylic. Very strong and crystal clear.
All of the containers have an external measurement of 85mm square.
With an internal measurement of 81mm square.
The internal height or depth of each container is;
Large 200mm
Medium 85mm
Small 28mm.
All of the Lids the same size just a different colour / color. They are all interchangeable with each of the containers. So If you buy 4 sets you can have all the same colour / color lids.
The internal depth of each lid is 19mm to the flat part and not the hollow stud. There is a 6mm lip on the lid which sits inside the container.
The studs which are 10mm high enable the containers to stack very well into the recess in the underside of the next container.
The lids fit perfectly but are not liquid proof, they will leak if tipped on their sides with liquid inside.
We found that our standard supermarket straight pasta spaghetti was 260mm long. So too long for the largest container. We had to put the pasta shapes inside instead and they look great.
For Tea / Coffee / Sugar storage units we wanted the Middle size containers. This meant buying 3 sets.
The smallest size is for small amounts of food, maybe a few grapes or raisins for a child's pack lunch.
Great for non food items like small Lego pieces or stationary items, staples, paper clips etc.
If Lego could make a few larger sizes for food like spaghetti etc then they would be onto a winner. Maybe it is only the UK which has odd sized spaghetti?
The smallest should at least hold an apple whole and not sliced as they are not air tight. Great idea just needs a little more size research.
Overall fantastic quality, excellent multipurpose items, but not all sizes very food friendly. You will not be disappointed with the quality! "

Horsey Horsey
" What a great set this is, larger than Mini figure scale yet it works very well. The horses are highly detailed and very good quality, This set combined with the Horse jumping set are great. You can then have Mum and Dad and Baby horse if you wish! Our 3 and a half year old loves the set although young hands do soon reduce the walls and opening gate into piles of Lego once again. Plenty of small accessories to play with and lots of detail, highly recommended set for anyone who loves animals and especially HORSES. Whats next a 4X4 and a horse Box? "
