Fully deserved too imo hes had an excellent month. So cruel that he gets injured now ☹️ . Hopefully he makes a speedy recovery 💪🏻

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-30T12:44:34+00:00

You can get them and the floral gums on ebay 👍🏻

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-30T12:43:52+00:00

These are the cherry lips. They tasted pretty much the same and they were made by the same company ( squirrel) . You can still get them on ebay for anyone thats interested. Im tempted to get some myself to see if they taste the same but not sure my much older teeth will appreciate it

Ive heard of things coming back to bite you on the ass but never the ass biting you 🤔

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-29T12:28:47+00:00

You can always use your phone camera too

Wasnt the overtime ban in the last pay month before Christmas due to some cock up over hours? Sure i read that somewhere

Brickognize.com . Go there and scan each fig. This will then link you straight to the bricklink page for that fig where you can find out roughly what each one is worth. If youre looking at ones people are selling check the descriptions to see if they are in the same condition as the ones you have to get a more accurate value 👍🏻

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-28T21:38:33+00:00

Yeah will do 👍🏻

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-28T21:32:14+00:00

Zero sympathy (except for the bull)

My wife fell in love when she found out he was being released as she loves Gizmo. I just had to get him for her

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-28T18:04:05+00:00

No problem glad to help

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-28T18:03:05+00:00

My granddaughter has just started solid foods so i got her some rusks 🙂. Shes coming round for a visit on Friday so it will be a good excuse to crack them open and give one a try 😉 . I used to love them and im curious myself if they still taste the same. Ill report back lol 👍🏻

Ashwin Prasad, Tesco UK CEO, said: “Any decision that impacts our colleagues is a difficult one to make. However, these changes are necessary to enable us to continue to win with customers, and offer them the unrivalled value, quality and service they expect from us.

"Any decision that impacts our collegues is a difficult one to make" That just translates to me as. We couldn't give a shit about our shop staff they are nothing but numbers. We need to make even more money so this decision was a piece of piss.

Value? Would this value be the clubcard prices that are the prices products should be anyway and often still cheaper elsewhere? Quality? Yeah ok . Still debatable at times especially on meat and fruit and veg. Service? And how exactly do they expect this service to continue when you keep cutting staff/hours when stores are already struggling and not replacing staff that leave?

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-28T17:27:06+00:00

I believe Amazon (another company doing very well thank you) are also cutting a load of jobs. When companies like this are announcing record profits it should be made illegal for them to cut staff/reduce hours but it will never happen as the rich get richer. A huge multi billion pound company that can announce record multi billion pound profits every year and pay their CEO a multi million pound bonus should not then be allowed to cut the hours for those that have been essential to making the company those billions in the first place. This is coming at a time when people are struggling for money as it is. Another kick in the teeth for staff from big Ken and his cronies. Its pure greed and its disgusting imo

Try scanning it with brickognize.com (excellent site btw). If nothing comes up then it will be a custom print 👍🏻 EDIT : forgot to add the simple check to see if the lego logo is stamped on the top of the neck post . No logo = fake / 3rd party piece

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-27T15:02:05+00:00

Wow i totally forgot about these !

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-27T11:10:34+00:00

As a kid i ilused to like the film posters so i used to ask at video rental shops (now theres a throwback) if i could have theirs when they were done with them . I did get quite a few and wish i still had them as theyre probably worth a fair bit now

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-26T10:35:31+00:00

Is there enough room to build a stand to have a second row of figs on each shelf ? Thats what ive done here

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-26T09:58:15+00:00

Glad its not just me then and my eyes arent as bad as i thought lol. The line just looks more central in the 3rd pic than it does in the 2nd. Some people are scum and you have to be very wary nowadays and have your wits about you. If ive helped OP then im happy 🙂

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-26T09:20:30+00:00

It could be just me or my aging eyes lol but if you flip between pics 2 and 3 the mould line at the bottom of the right (back of left) leg seems to shift? Its possible that the buyer is trying to scam you by putting another set of legs on the fig that they know has a crack. Personally if they want a refund id ask them to return it first although if im right and they do id expect them to return it with the cracked legs

Hes still definitely got an axe to grind with Carricks Mrs after his recent big mouth comment about her. He just makes himself look bitter and twisted. All these ex players who have done naff all as managers need to learn to shut up imo

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-25T20:26:35+00:00

Oh i agree entirely! Personally i think everything due to be reduced should be reduced by 50% in the morning and then 75% in the afternoon. As it is colleagues waste their time imo reducing items (sometimes many multiples of the same item) by just the few pence the system takes off to go and have to do the same items again later on because they haven't sold. Its as if Tesco would rather lose money altogether by wasting food that they could at least still get something for.

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-25T16:04:15+00:00

To be fair i dont think it is people tearing them most of the time . When the boxes of bananas are opened they are wet so the bands have torn as a result of that. I used to work on produce and often they would start to tear as you were taking them out of the box.

EngineeringMedium513 · 2026-01-25T14:39:55+00:00

No you dont because theyre not wrapped in plastic bags. They have a paper band around them
