At first glance I thought the dalmatian had a puppy on the way over! But now I see from your post that she has adopted a little alien puppy. ;)

Ah, a lego dog.. Ok :)  I'm not familiar with them.

I hate those faces too.. completely off. That guitarplayer, the singer... all turned about. The problem is that most hairstyles don't conceal it, so we have to choose carefully.

Oh the singer urgh the guitar player I find bearable but, still defiantely prefer the old face, the new mad sicentist face welll that just looks  8} although the masked face on the blue space ranger guy from series 2 might be useful for doing one or two superhero bashes I can think of whether I actually get the parts to carry it through is another matter  ;) As for the LEGO dog considering what scale it is altohugh they've also got standing dogs which I think are probably nicer don't think they were around when I was younger, problem is I think this dog's base which youse to connect it to the LEGO studs is partly broke  :) 

Nice to see they all got there safe, and it looks like they're having a good time. At first glance I thought the dalmatian had a puppy on the way over! But now I see from your post that she has adopted a little alien puppy. ;)

I guess you could say that  :lol: I just noticed the dog well I was looking for figures after all I thought they might like it better on the shelves then in a tub, he's only got spots painted on with a pen but, he doesn't look much worse than the Playmobil one to me at least thought he'd make a ncie bit of company  ;). Oh yes and your figures are very much appreciated the Firemen have bonded with my 2 fellas and the kids are making friends in fact they're presently waiting patiently for the adults to finish modifying their sail boat in the workshop  ;) thanks  :wave:

Hello got some more new faces first off I should have really added these 2 guys a couple of weeks ago but, haven't got round to it



Hopefully you can see the pilots in this photo I was veyr surprised by their arrival a few weeks ago since I knew I hadn't ordered anything and when I poened the pakcage up I found these 2 little men had been sent courtesy of Elaine (Skypurr) just what we needed so big thanks to Elaine I think they like their view across our cabin  :wave:  :thanks:

Next up as you can see my original BTCV man is very excited by these new arrivals



I saw them on Ebay and was watching them expecting that after last time I'd become involved in a bidding war but, I managed to get the 2 guys in the high vis vests for 99p and the guy with the mucky overalls for £1.49, as an unexpected bonus I got the other guy who looks like a race driver and the dog  ;D. The guy in the mucky overalls will probably be a handyman and the guys in the high vis vests will be recruited to the BTCV min carbon army and when I get the right parts they'll be customised to look like members of the real team hence yesterday evening was spent with a skewer carefully painting the BTCV on the back of their vests a true test of my not so steady hands and brushwork  :-[

I've just picked up on this thread.

You've got some great buys with the 3761 crane (classic PM that one) and the 3781 (ditto) and the 3789 helicopter.  I'll get the parts for the 3781 off to you this coming week.  Cuirrently, I'm membership secretary of the Fire Brigade Society and April is renewal time, so everything stops for that, hence me not sending you the parts sooner.  I may also have spares for the helicopter.  I'll print out the plans and include them with the 3781 parts.

Hello mate no problem at all the Firemen will be glad of the parts, the Fire Engine and Helicopter have unfortunately taken a slight battering at the Botanics so have been moved to safer ground not surprising that they've been bashed happens to everything at Botanics but, I know my Mum wouldn't be best pleased if she found out what I'd been buying  :-[ ;) Thanks again mate it is very much appreciated  :thanks: :)9 it's also reminded me to introduce my new purchases

I've had these 2 guys in the Helicopter ages Elaine sent tehm to me quite a while ago quite unexpected there arrival was as well I thought who's been sending me stuff I know I haven't been buying anything   :eh?: then I opened the parcel up and what surprise to lovely little pilots for my helicopter  :yippee:

 

Next up a few weeks ago when I stopped off at Toysrus I spotted they had an abundance of Series 4 figures so I decided tot ake advantage and try to get some figures and some points on my new Goldcard  ;D I also bought a Karate figure from Series figure to try and customise his bald head and I got another Dwarf for my friend



Finally got these new guys at the Market the other week, loving the Knights the Falconery hearaldry looks good on the shields and the red soldier is quite endearing, as for the Swan Knight a must for sure I like him much better than I was expecting the moustache is in great nick and those colours really work well together. As for the S.W.A.T. guy no idea why I bought him apart from that his little face just appealed to me for some reason he strikes me more as military than S.W.A.T. and finally the colourful fella in the purple cap something about him just really works like the combinaton of bright colours a lot
