Doc_Brown Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 I gifted myself 2nd hand 8466, (probably the 2nd time it has been wrapped up for xmas!) and did designer Dan's mods from memory with new springs. Turned out very well built in 5 hours, tho a 3L pin was missing! URGH The steering was awesome! the ride was near perfect and those doors truly are amazing! Shame there is not really a B model. Merry Christmas to all!!! :thumbup:

Merry Christmas to all!!! :thumbup: Haha reminds me of the 2nd hand silver champion I bought, seller said missing a few pieces... It was missing BEAMS! Who knows how it was pictured made up in the photo, still, I used my beams to finish it, didn't like the set though so I parted it out, except the tyres hehe
Nico van Duin Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 I got a 42000 :) can't wait to disassemble it and build with the new parts such as the wheelhubs
Interceptor Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 Got a 42009 for Christmas , I have to say I really like it, but it is not successor to 8421 in every way IMO.
_techniclego55_ Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 (edited) I got a 42009 too,.. great set.. :-) Edited December 26, 2013 by _techniclego55_
Legofan225 Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 (edited) l got the 42010 Lego Technic Off road racer set for Christmas this year wow now this set is absolutly amazing !! l'm a big fan of the pull back action Technic sets Edited December 26, 2013 by Legofan225
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 Oh, I'll play along too. My daughter got three CMFs in her stocking: Pretzel Boy, Pretzel Girl, and Gingerbread Man, as well as the Harry Potter lab polybag. Her big present was the 2011 Hogwarts set which I magically found on clearance a few months ago. I gave my wife An Unexpected Gathering, and I tracked down all the dwarves to fill it. (My wife got lots of non-Lego stuff, but she is a big Tolkien fan.) Me, I got the Master Building Academy Set 1 and the new Minifigure coffee table book.
Dr Leg O Brick Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 (edited) I got 76007 Malibu Mansion Attack from my parents, 76006 Marvel Extremis sea port battle and 70700 Space Swarmer from my Girlfriend, along with a ton of other stuff, Graphic novels and books, along with two action figures. Overall, a good year, a very good year... P.S I now your pain JM1971, I've been getting that Action Man playset for many year's as well. You'd think with all the truck's and enough weaponry to arm a small country, Action Man would be more inclined to stick around... Edited December 26, 2013 by Dr Leg O Brick
