Cheers, John, I'd seen those. I like the Creative Suitcase, but there doesn't seem to be much choice and I wanted just bags of single-colour bricks, without all those extra special elements which have come to dominate LEGO.

That actually goes back towards the origins of LEGO in the 60s. They used to sell kits like that, quite possibly before it became popular as a children's toy. (When I was small, I never realised quite how recently these plastic toys had been invented.)

And yes, most LEGO is definitely too expensive.

I have to say I find it impressive that they leave negative feedback openly visible on their site.

They seem like a decent company. I know they are ploughing a fortune into finding a way to make lego out of something environmental friendly, rather than petroleum-based plastic.

Mate of mine (who is Lego obsessed) applied for Creative Director job there recently. I really hope he gets it.

made from papermache and stickyback plastic..

FAB!

^^ Top effort.

My son was gifted Tracy Island for Christmas.

It has come on a bit with sound / lights and clockwork launch activation.

I have not enjoyed playing with it at all.

Quick tester...does anyone know what FAB stands for?

I was under the impression FAB stood for nothing specific.
happy to be wrong

Not what I heard...
