oh i forgot about the structure on the left, doh

lol i got too focused on how to avoid that floating grid piece

Ok so I forked out the £2, seems only one side has that vertical tile structure - which I didn't figure on at all. Makes things a lot easier.

(although looking at the top, I really should have got that)

I shouldn't try lego before bed

Wow. I think this is the most engaged anyone has ever been with a question I've asked on ILE/ILM!

I also stumped up the £2 and ordered most of the pieces for around £9.50 - there were a few pieces that didn't appear on the Lego website but its a present for someone with a child who has Lego so I am hoping that they have some pieces they can improvise with.

Again, thanks.

Cool, and somehow I got the price right even though I couldn't even build the flaming thing myself!

At least I know what I'll be attempting to build in Minecraft this weekend.

you may think I'm getting too obsessed with this cool building, I'll only start worrying if I attempt to build the thing out of my mashed potatoes and garden fencing.

here's how I did it:

Yep.

I used a 2x2 corner tile around the base of the laundry tower, rather than a 1x2 and a 1x1. Saved me about 10p. 8)

Where's good in the UK for buying Lego?

Wanted to buy this as a present but Lego aren't shipping to the UK at the moment, and it is double everywhere I have looked so far.

i'd offer to pop to westfield's lego shop for you and have a look (given it's about 10 minutes away) but i guess they're non-essential and closed.

Ha!

Yes, non-essential in the scheme of things.
