Hope they can come to some sort of compromise :(

It's pretty crap Lego won't take it.

What I find sad about it isn't the house itself, but the little things like the toothbrushes, the cat, the toaster - they make the house a home!

I can understand their point though... They design and build models which can be moved.

James May:
1. Built it a long way away from Lego's grounds
2. He didn't consult anyone from Lego on how to construct it, so that it it can be transported.

It is a shame, although it is pretty ugly. What would have been real class would have been to build the logo bricks to look like real bricks with mortar...

In the comments section of the Daily Mail story, some bloke called Carlo wrote:
May should put this total waste of time in his own garden, then grow up and do something useful for society.


In reply to which, some really intelligent bloke called John, from Manchester wrote:
Note to Carlo:
He produced the the garden as part of his BBC 2 series James May's Toy Stories, where he aimed to 'get kids out of their bedrooms and away from their Playstations'.
Are you saying this isn't useful for society?

Maybe he should make a crane, complete with wrecking ball, out of Mecanno and use that to destroy the house...


I like that John bloke - he makes a lot of sense! ;) :P :lol: :etc:
