My Batman Lego arrives

There was a rather large box waiting for me yesterday when I came home from work. I’d found a set of 4 Batman Lego kits, unopened I should add, via an ebay seller in Hong Kong. I’d become interested in the line after playing the Videogame recently, but had been put off by the steep price. I knew ebay was a bit of a risk, but they don’t make these kits any more and they’re only going to get rarer. The postage was amazing, the seller paid for it, but all the stamps were in low denominations so there was dozens and dozens of them plastered across this box.

The four kits I bought were the last four produced (at least by numbering) 7884 Mr Freeze’s Escape, 7885 Robin’s SCUBA Jet, 7886 Harly Quinn’s Hammer Truck, and 7888 The Tumbler. The one I was really looking for was the Two-Face Armoured Car as that’s the one with the Batmobile, but this was too good a chance to pass up. The dilemma I have now is whether to unbox them and build them or to hang on to them with the thought of reselling them at a future date.  Somehow I don’t think my will power is going to be strong enough for the latter…
