This Lego Ferrari is proving a reeeeeealy tedious build. So many tiny pieces many of which are buried deep inside and seem to serve no useful purpose. Not a kit I can recommend.

Gave up on the Ferrari. About 2/3rds done but just so frigging BORING. No sense of accomplishment. I’ve put the unfinished model on a shelf in my “Lego Room.”

Do you have your eye on a follow-up Lego model? Were you able to resist the Battlestar Galactica kit? (:

Definitely resisting the BSG kit. Next from Lego? Have to wait and see what 2024 brings.

Paul, what is this Battlestar Galactica kit you spoke of? Lego? I googled and came up with nothing.

Those are cool, Bill! I’ve so far been able to resist them, but I wouldn’t say no to the Saruman.

Hey Brett - I was referring to JB's earlier post: **I see there’s a giant (61”) Lego-like Battlestar Galactica — for $3,000!I think I can resist.** I bet that's a monster of a kit to put together!

I recognize this is immature of me, but the placement of the headshots right around the crotch flap gave me a good laugh.
