Putting a tile in between two studs has never been considered an "illegal" building technique. Placing a plate in between the studs of another plate is considered "illegal" because the "LEGO" lettering on the studs of each plate bump into each other, thus causing stress on the parts.
Something to consider,there is a recent concord magazine that is at Barnes n Noble bookstores. It goes through the history of the Concord, including the winger apron building and more. It would be nice to build( scratch build) a replica of the apron wing building.
Great video, love how you flew it around the house before you put it into its display spot. Reminds me of being a kid again. 😁👍also there was one other set with a drop down nose. 6929 Star Fleet Voyager classic Lego set.
Thanks for including the measurements in centimetres! Here in Australia, it sold out so quickly and you couldn't even order it through the website. It finally became available to back-order this morning (I had been checking daily!) so I grabbed one. At 6.30am, they were saying they could ship by Nov 27. Within an hour, new orders wouldn't be shipped until Dec 18th. The demand for this set is huge. Excellent review my friend, I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts.
I got this set on release day a little while before it went on high demand. Cuz I was gonna wait until Christmas to get it, but chose to get it on release day and not wait till Christmas for it. And I’m glad I didn’t wait until Christmas cuz I wouldn’t be able to even get one on time for Christmas this year
As above: legal. Beautiful set, great to build. (Yes, I think a. that could have been one pilot and two hostess - one for Air France, one for British Airways - and b. that the verb in the previous sentence may be wrong.)
That is an absolute STUNNER! I so wish I had room for this. I think I will buy it and put it in storage then When I have the room in a year or so I can get it out and build it, I must have this one.
Got Concorde as pretty much my first Lego set, and I have to say it's absolutely brilliant. It's really amazing display piece, and as said here, looks prestigious. I was really surprised how much I got for 200€ since I always thought Lego to be very expensive hobby, but this one seemed like a steal of a deal.
Thumbs up for the new adult space section in your office. My first theme as an afol. While the shuttle is such a boring display, its too good of a lego model, and still commands a spot in my quickly limiting space. Your hand reaches towards it to dismantle it into bags and quickly retreats, are you going to dismantle something of that calibre.. nope.
I actually have two of these in my apartment. 😅 I’m that crazy with Concorde. One on a small table and then one on my gaming table which fortunately is quite wide and large. Fits nicely when I play flight simulator where I of course flies the Concorde. I’m just waiting for my flight simulator yoke. 😎
I bought it the day after it was released. Unfortunately I don’t have anywhere to put it as of yet so it is currently on the Living Room Floor. I am planning on making space for it this weekend.
The droop nose was designed to protect crews when going through supersonic speed there was an extra visor that raised over the cockpit windows when the nose was straight for traveling supersonic speed the nose also drooped all the way down for landing and raised halfway for taking off
Guys I am 11 and my mums say she will buy me the Concorde I’ll have to pay 150 and she has to pay 159 and there’s gonna be a middle year sale should I buy it and do you think I’ll be able to build it is it to hard I’ll come back everyday to see what you guys say pin me if I should and I’ll be able to do it
