To all the children amongst us(blokes) here is about the best thing i have seen since any program about Brunel!
Knowing men and their competitive nature i can only wonder how long it will be until the TSR2 flies again, albeit made of Lego.

Very smart, Tonker, and it certainly looks a lot more useful than the Mark III Lee Enfield that I had during my first year in the Combined Cadet Force, before I thankfully shed khaki and a kilt for dark blue. I was actually quite proud of it until the Permanent Staff Instructor disillusioned me by informing me that the pretty silver painted band round the muzzle meant that I must never fire blanks - with the rifle that is!:eek:
On the plus side, its four figure serial number belatedly became very useful as a PIN .....:ok:

Suprised there are no comparisons with the 5.56mm SA80 - one's a plastic toy that scares children and the other is a Lego model.

Certainly more impressive than the items I built with Lego. However, I had a Jonny 7 which strangely, I used to shoot at Lego!

That's it, ban lego from airport security screening, unless there are only a few pieces, suggest 4 doubles, 4 quads and a few glass bricks, all placed on the tray in a re-sealable clear plastic bag, before somone makes an Uzi 9mm and goes berserk airside.

You lucky bugger to have a Jonny 7!
I did not learn of these until recently, but would love to get one in perfect condition......The only thing stopping me is the price!

Someone upgrades their car horn to play Colonel Bogie, and eventually you end up with this....:D:D:D Men

tezzer. Never joke about such things inside the London FIR!
How long before our caring, sharing, risk averse Government introduces a Lego Licence?

Now, if I can only get my 6 yo to make a working L1A1 out of toothpicks and mashed potato, I'll be onto something ....
