My mum got me this for Christmas, the attention to detail is ridiculous

Assume they have a website.
Having put together some the nephews Lego together on Christmas Day - I need stuff like this in my life...

They do, but it's American: https://www.fascinations.com/metalearth

There's an official Metal Earth reseller on Amazon and there's plenty of sellers on eBay too. Also, iwantoneofthose.com have 3 for £20 at the moment (they usually retail for about £12).

I'm going to try and do all the Star Wars ones then might try some of the others.

jayo, saw that on Facebook earlier - it looks ace. My eldest got a load of Lego for Christmas and has spent most of today building a pirate ship.

Lego is a timeless present. I still get Lego for my missus, she loves it. The range these days is huge, there was bigger all when I was a kid,

I'm current building a Tamiya RC car (The Frog) for me and another one (Grasshopper) for my son.

Best Xmas for years

I'm quite partial to the odd Airfix model or preferably old skool half metal (with ridiculously small watch screws) Protar Micromodelli Provini motorcycle kits. Getting rare now, this is one of my prized possessions, being a Matchless man.

Wife bought me a megadrive and a bunch of games for my 30th . She also got me a signed Swindon shirt (97/98) but what we realised when taking it out of the packaging was we have no fucking clue who its signed by...don't think we had any players called Tracey (this bit should go in the other thread really!)

Nothing wrong with adults receiving lego! I haven't myself, yet.. But I would like to get the Simpson's house set at some point!

My nephew asked for a Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2016 edition gaming keyboard for Christmas, my Mum ordered it from Amazon from a US company at the start of December but they fucked up the order 3 times. She cancelled the order on the 23rd, I found one on Overclockers and she ordered that. Got that on the 24th, hunky dory, happy nephew. The one she ordered originally then turned up yesterday morning, she checked with the company and returning it was at her cost, £30 minimum. Looked at ebaying it but she'd more than likely lose the same amount from the original £110 cost, so she suggested I have it as a birthday present from the family, 6 months before my birthday. It's a very nice keyboard with lots of nice features, but I'd never have bought one for myself!

Isn't this product naming gone bonkers? Ok, it's obviously a good keyboard but really?

I'm waiting with bated breath for the Machete Honey Badger Intense 2016 edition electric kettle.

Hope you enjoy it anyway Leggett

Spearing, the guy who gets jumped by Selby is the biggest prick in our league, a sneaky dirty player who the refs don't penalise near enough, a proper wind up merchant. He also won't fight to back up his actions (as seen by holding onto his gloves and stick in the video), which in hockey is pretty unforgivable. Swindon have had some 'interesting' characters before, but they've all been happy to drop the gloves when called to. In normal circumstances jumping someone like Selby did would be a big no-no but Spearing deserves it!
