It's only after building it I realised that the flags were in there. Really cool set!

Senna is a national hero here in Brazil. The man is practically a legend. There are so many things and places named after him. Even the current Heineken advertisement features a montage with Senna and a tribute from Prost at the end.

Thomas 007 asking the right questions.....what do you like? Lego caters for all so give us some details.

I looking to buy the Lego Millennium Falcon and AT-AT (Star Wars) but I have not found a buyer for my kidney just yet.

I have now handed over the reins of Lego to my son. Have bought him several small sets over the past year.
Land Rover Defender, Minecraft scene, small space shuttle, Harry Potter etc,

He still's not allowed to have my Space Shuttle which was the 2010 (discontinued) 1400 pc one.

Also got a Lego passport in a Lego store where you can get it stamped at the various Lego stores you visit worldwide and bought from. Cool item he also likes.

The architecture sets are pretty cool and aren't too expensive. They're small but they are nice display pieces. I always tend to buy sets that can be displayed now. Most recently, the McLaren MP4/4 that was posted here.

My brother just sent me this, supposed to be released next year. It'll be pretty cool to have the FW14B alongside the MP4/4

Now came across this forum, nice stuff.
This is a few of the stuff from my collection.
Waiting to get the Mercedes F1 and maybe the crane.
The larger technic sets are my weakness. Clearly.

I felt they should have included the display base like with the McL
Either way, I'll get it. Mansell ftw

Lego need to do more of those 70's and 80's F1 cars like the Ferrari 312T, JPS Lotus and Tyrell P34 in the Icons series

Bugatti Bolide 1/18. Enjoyed building this. Might sell it and look for another much bigger build.

only 'big' one I ever cared for was the original GT3 RS. I real stick when Island Hobbies had theirs for 50% off
IMO most of the supercars don't translate well.....I rather 'regular' technics builds
