TMNT single figures Leo, Mikey & Raph, from Crankcase
With all of the euphoria surrounding the Lego movie practically everywhere I digitally go :D, I thought I'd see if I could find any of the old sets I used to have (Or wanted) as a kid :cool: - then if I could afford any of it! :p
Low and behold I did and thus far I've placed 3 orders with a particular seller, the 1st of which arrived on Wednesday! :eek::D

I've only built 3 out of the 5 sets in this 1st order, but here are some pics anyway ;):
- Blacktron II: Super Nova II

I can't believe what I've managed to find, nor can I wait for it all to arrive! :p
I quite liked Lego back in the day but never to the same degree as Transformers or Ninja Turtles, so the few Lego sets I used to have were quite cherished until the parts were all lost to the 4 corners of the abode that also housed 2 younger siblings. :rolleyes:
So coupled with my recent dablings with "Alien Conquest" & "Monster Fighters" lines, along with quite a lull in my TF collecting of late - I decided to throw some money at some older sets and re-live a small part of my childhood. :D:cool:
Very nice pick up. Those Blacktron sets can be very popular.
I don't doubt, I loved the theme & colour-scheme as a kid - there was a lot to love with it :)...Quote:

The Radon Rover was probably my favourite set as a kid, I remember pulling it apart and rebuilding things with it countless times - Just pure awesome! :D:cool:
I do remember always looking at the catalogue & toy shelves at the time, yearning for something more - That feeling wasn't ever satiated, until last week when the yearning was finally quenched...
Finally my order for Simpsons had arrived! Hurray!!! Took like 2.5 weeks
Here's something for the classic space fans out there (shameless plug)

This is one of the "Drooled over as a kid" sets that I'm really pleased with and excited to finally own ;):), behold!:
- U.F.O: Warp Wing Fighter

...and thus crowns the completion of Order #1; 3 out of the 5 of these sets were revisits to kits I once owned as a kid, but all 5 have been extremely fun, relaxing & cathartic experiences. ;):cool:

Now, to begin Order #2...
I like the big ufo ship! :D The alien creature looks cool:cool:
