Taj Mahal unveiled

Finally, the rumours about the 10189 Taj Mahal set found confirmation. Starting today, European AFOLs may pre-order the set on LEGO’s Shop@Home website.

Taj Mahal

Retail price is 299 Euro (200 GBP) which is quite nice for almost 6000 piece set.

Aaron Andrews (DARKspawn) presents a small diorama where three pirates meet the fish monster.

Fish Monster

It is the monster that makes the scene great. I particularly like the teeth coming up from the water, huge eyes and clever use of green parts.

Watch out for that bus!lang_pt]Cuidado com o autocarro!

The end of summer vacations and going back to school is a hard time for everyone (going back to work is quite similar…). Matt shows us why we really should be afraid to come back: hungry school bus.
