@1:32 Right after you talk about the red double decker bus…literally a red double decker bus passes by in the background 😆…production value right there. I’m just an OCD detail freak. It’s so cool that happened. Most of the double decker buses in New York City are open on the top for tourists. They aren’t as cool as the buses I’ve seen in London etc.
Honestly Stud - I didn't do that on purpose but thank you for pointing it out as it totally had me laughing in post production of the video :) Thank you so much for tuning in mate.
I am so looking forward to Baraddur.... prob taken a while to make on the shelves down here in NZ. Have an awesome day!💥From Fun At Home (Hot Wheels, Lego, Cards, Stamps & collectables)☮
I’m determined to get to the store on release day at least once this year! Really great haul though - and those jungle sets look fantastic! I’ll pick some up from your friend and mine on Monday😉😎
Hey Greg I wonder if you can rebuild the sightseeing bus to be right hand drive? It can’t be that difficult? Hopefully I’ll be able to pick one up in the coming weeks? The Batmobile is very nice. You get to build a micro version in the Gotham City Skyline set. I have no use for the crane, but it does look cool! The GWP, I thought, is incredibly disappointing. Apart from using the parts what use is it? Mrs H has been buying the micro Ninjago sets from eBay. I guess she’d rather save her Insider points for something big? The Pirate is very good. I was disappointed when we visited Billund last September because the Moulding Machine had been retired. When I asked Stuart about it (we bumped into him at the Campus), he couldn’t really offer an explanation as to why it was no longer available. Especially as earlier released sets were still on the shelf in the LEGO House shop. I gather LSQ was beyond crazy today. EBay already has copies of the Lord of the Rings set for £500+ Nice haul 👍
Thank you Robin - I think the Batmobile looks great and totally looking forward to building it and the rest of the sets in due course. How much 'roughly' is the Ninjago Micro sets going for on Ebay? I bet not as much as the LOTR GWP but still a pretty penny nonetheless. My thoughts on the Moulding machine are that it may not have sold well - that said, like limited edition GWP's they too go for a big price on the aftermarket... I starting to see a trend here! ... Thanks for tuning in mate.
Great Vlog, that sight seeing bus is just the ticket in that red. And great buy with the crane, your city is going to reach new heights. 😊 have a safe trip when you go to Chicago, and have a fabulous time, which I'm sure you will. Can't wait to watch the vlogs. Just remember to enjoy the whole experience though and not let the time flash by through a camera lens.
Wise words Trev - thank you so much. The vlogs will probably be a little rougher - but I want peeps to get a feel for Chicago, the convention and the people and MOC's I come into contact with :)
Another enjoyable vlog and brilliantly edited. The scaled up pirate is awesome and bought one myself last year and is a great build. Looking forward to the Chicago vlogs and hope you have a safe trip.
Waiting for a good gwp on the Lego store exclusive sets everything else wait for a good discount elsewhere. Like the city bus , tram , and coaster. Plus the Pixar Brickheadz
I was on a mission for the yellow truck which I got. But I was open to other sets and picjed up the Up Brickheadz, New star wars mech and another Captain Rex Microfighter pack. I already had two on pre-order with two other star wars sets back when the Space GWP was out.
We made it to our Lego store in Indiana. Parker convinced me to get Barad-dur (used points towards it). She went with the tuxedo cat, and small simba. Also got the Star Wars releases.
That set is amazing PNG - lucky for me, my LEGO purchases are going in a different direction (my city LEGONDON) but that said, I would one day soon like to get Rivendell ... I'm totally interested to know what you feel the better out the two are once you've completed Barad-Dur. Cheers Greg.
A wonderful vlog! Happy Belated Birthday! All great purchases and I look forward to seeing you build them in your videos. I was on the fence about the crane but all your excitement for it has moved me over to getting it. Enjoyed seeing the buses driving in behind you as you mentioned them. Safe travels on your trip next week!
it wasn't until i watched it back and spotted that - next time i got to Blue Water and vlog i'll try and pick the same spot... its a London thing after all! - super happy to hear you got the crane as well... let me know what you think about it after you've built it as well.

Thank you Simon - fingers crossed all round!
The little steamroller set is brilliant!!
But should I army build it?
Yeah. North America is getting half of the new City sets on June 1st, and the rest on August 1st.
Doesn't seem fair to me - but I'm sure that'll get fixed when the new factory comes online in the US.
The Tuxedo Cat! 😍 although I would love the big Simba too but ££££ 😬
Both a great sets - just not where my focus is at the moment with buying LEGO - Thank you for tuning in :)
Nice pirate. My last one.

Indeed and I would have done something similar if it wasn't for the LEGO vouchers! ... Thanks for watching Gareth.
@@LONDONBRIDGEBRICKS indeed I can get 8% off Lego gift cards via work's perks thing but still cheaper elsewhere. Bluewater looks nice store by way.
I was on a mission for the yellow truck which I got. But I was open to other sets and picjed up the Up Brickheadz, New star wars mech and another Captain Rex Microfighter pack. I already had two on pre-order with two other star wars sets back when the Space GWP was out.
This 'cheap' Captain Rex is definitely a thing! - good purchases and thank you for watching the vlog Craig.
The following sets I bought today
All 3 speed champions set
City truck
City crane
City roller coaster
Chess set
Creator beach house
Very nice haul indeed - have fun building those
There’s a robot world mech (exoforce) reference on the harbour set too
We made it to our Lego store in Indiana. Parker convinced me to get Barad-dur (used points towards it). She went with the tuxedo cat, and small simba. Also got the Star Wars releases.
Also, the wifey wasn't surprised (for once) that I got the LOTR set. So another win? Or should I be worried 😂
That set is amazing PNG - lucky for me, my LEGO purchases are going in a different direction (my city LEGONDON) but that said, I would one day soon like to get Rivendell ... I'm totally interested to know what you feel the better out the two are once you've completed Barad-Dur. Cheers Greg.
Jusr found your channel after I saw an IG story by Trevor at Brickmania Chicago with you and him.
Thank you Marty - good to have you here, Cheers G
I bought both Simba sets and the archery set from friends. Waiting for 1st of August to buy the new animal crossing sets
Let me know what you think about the smaller Simba compared to its 'bigger brother' and thanks for watching

Awesome vlog 😁 i bought the lamborghini and aston martin speed champions, the small simba and the baby ankylosauros 😊
