Hello from the UK!

[Jeff Mack]

My job sends me across the pond to the UK to work with some companies we purchased a little while back. Its always fun to see how things are done in different countries. Well, luckily this year I got come over during the Olympics and got to see some of the excitement it has brought to the city. I am especially lucky that I was able to come here and finally experience Argos for the first time and grabbed a bunch of Olympic Minifigs for me and Ed. Hopefully I got enough that will allow us to get two full sets or I may have to request to comeback and finish some "work" here

Hello everyone! I started collecting Lego as a child, like many people here, and lost interest as I got older. I have recently rediscovered my interest and after discovering this site have decided to both collect and invest. My main interests are Star Wars and Lord of the Rings but I do also like the odd Lego City model. I'm currently wondering whether I should purchase Tower Bridge or a couple of Helm's Deep sets so if anyone can help with that I would appreciate it. Cheers

Welcome to the site. In regards to your purchase question I think it depends on if you are getting them to collect or invest. For investment purposes I would go with helms deep as its likely to be off the shelfs before tower bridge.

Hey, welcome to brickpicker! I think helms deep will retire first, but the tower bridge should appreciate more in the long run

Yeh I read on the forums that Helm's Deep was not being made after June. Any idea when Tower bridge is going EOL? I might be able to save up enough for both anyway.

I would probably invest in Tower Bridge or build one of the Helm's Deep sets and invest in the other.

Welcome! I'm mostly into SW and LOTR as well. It's a bit strange, because TB has been on the shelves for two years longer than HD, but it's retiring later... :/

Both very good sets. The Tower Bridge will be gone soon, probably by or during the holidays. This is speculation though. Either way, the TB will be a winner, IMO. Great big and iconic set!! One of my favorite out there right now...
