Hello, just joined and thought i'd introduce myself. Recently got back into Lego after collecting the Ferrari polly bags. Then one thing led to another and now i seem to spend all my spare cash on the stuff lol. Really happy with my collection so far and recently started to buy a few extra set as investments to help fund this expencive new hobbie.

    Hi Sideboard,

    Welcome to the board.

    Fellow UK newbie here.

    I was just wondering where you spent most of your money? TRU? Argos? Lego shop?

    Which websites do you visit for info?

    These boards are heavily focused on US sites and everything so I am struggling to find a database of UK websites that I should be checking for deals and the like?

    Hi Drallep, I get most of my stuff direct from the online lego store. Mainly because you get VIP points and usually a free polly bag, also you know its going to turn up with a good condition box.

     The main places i check regularly for deals are Tesco direct, John Lewis, TRU, Amazon, and Smyths Toys.

    Was the Ferrari poly bags, the Shell V-nitro promotion in the UK? My renewed interest in Lego started after buying one from a Shell garage!

    I hear of a shell promo in Singapore with polybags of different models:

    These are nice sets and would probably appreciate nicely in price.
