Posted July 9, 20168 yr Creator is among my favourite themes, with its no-nonsense, anonymised, 3-in-1, 'pure LEGO' approach, and in this theme, the aircraft are always my first purchases. I recently bodged together a nice light-up display area for models and the first theme to go in was a selection of Creator's aircraft: CIMG0062b by bananaworld, on Flickr The Dilemma: They've been on display for a while now and I'm itching to build up another theme from the stash, BUT I don't want to take them apart! Which ones should I save to display elsewhere? Just the stunning larger ones, or are any of the smaller sets just too brilliant to part-out?
July 17, 20168 yr Nice collection you have there. 31039 is still on my wanted list, but since i collect technic, it's still on the list. Is it worth it? I like planes too, i would leave it like this ;-)
July 17, 20168 yr Author Nice collection you have there. Thank you 31039 is still on my wanted list, but since i collect technic, it's still on the list. Is it worth it? In a word, yes. I bought it NIB cheaply on eBay (box was battered, but I'm after the LEGO!) which just made it better value, so that's the way to do it. The plane itself doesn't 'do' anything (no variable geometry or light-up reheating engines) but it doesn't need to; it's just a really satisfying build with excellent lines when built. The alt build helicopter has some lovely SNOT on it. Go for it; you won't regret it. I like planes too, i would leave it like this ;-) Ah, but for a lack of space I would! Might leave the bigger ones built up somewhere...
