Can't wait for the GBC module in 5 years that manages to make good use of that incredibly specific glasses piece...

Still mad that 41597 lasted less than a year. Should've been 2 or 3 years minimum.

@THMG: It was used in 10261 and 71741 as fencing.

Can brickheadz just end already?

It wont end until there are more Bricheadz variations to outnumber living humans... that, or Galidor-inspired Brickheadz. Whichever comes first!

Perfect gift for my sister in law. If I ever get the Canaletas GWP at a reasonable price....

Why Barcelona? Who cares about them. If they made this a TOP Oss set, it would have been an instant buy for me....

Nice

Not even an FC Barcelona fan, but I'm still very tempted to buy it.

Literally Han Solo in the first optional builds pic.

Isn't this extremely specific? I suppose it would cost too much to put pieces in tons of colours with 30-40 sheets of stickers to represent all teams.

This reminds me of 4032 - I suppose they can do that for most teams (this plane exists with lots of different airline brands).

For me it would have to be Arsenal (red front and back of shirt, white sides and sleeves) from the time I was living in Islington in London.

I’m sure most people would prefer the club that they support, but it’s undeniable that FC Barcelona is one of the single most popular and iconic in the sport.

Obvious joke should have been obvious ;-)

I've been supporting TOP Oss for over 20 years now, and have asked a friend several times to come with me. But his answer is always the same: Only if TOP Oss would be playing the Champions League final, on home ground here in Oss (capacity 4.561...), against Barça. Doesn't sound very likely to ever happen, as weak as Barça is nowadays....
