Hey

[asterix]

Howdi Folks,

Was a big fan of lego when I was a kid, sadly (for me) my large collection was donated to charity (happily for them) by my mother. Right now I'm looking for a tough challenge to get back into it. Might sound arrogant but I'd like a set to keep me occupied for hours. Was thinking of the batmobile 7784 or truck 8258.

Any suggestions?

Hi there.

Welcome.

Well, it depend what you like more: Technic building with lots of gears (8258), or simpler, brick building (7784).

Here are some reviews about those two sets:

If you want to be kept busy for hours get a large Star Wars set like the New Venator, if it's anything like the Star Destroyer, that'll take a few hours.

How about Modular Buildings?

Thanks for the replies folks,

I'm torn between the crane truck set and the batmobile still. I think it has to be one of those or possibly another technic set as I live with my girlfriend, our apartment is quite small so dont think she'd appreciate a small lego town sprouting up in a corner (- we all know it wouldn't stop with one building!). At least with the batmobile it could be left out on display and the truck as well.

Got some time off work now so that's the main reason I want a real challenge - something to keep me occupied.

I bought the batmobile yesterday so going to try start it later on..... if my hangover permits!
