I had this, and probably several others here have too. The mail also gives
a direct line number, but I was only going to copy the e-mail address here
like Robin has. No dates either - I'll dig a bit for that.
I may be dubbed a 'mad collector' (by an outsider, obviously ;-), but I'm no
sports fan or even a life sculptor. A life-sized figure (not to mention a
whole team) is quite a tall order! My suggestion would be to contact
Legoland Windsor. I mean, sure I'd be willing to help out for charriddee,
but I don't think we could get enough bricks together from all the UK crowd
- and who'd do the face? I wonder if LLW could do the bricks and plans,
then some here could 'help' build it - but it's still asking quite a bit of
them. These things don't come cheap.
We know that LLW read this occasionally - could someone forward this to the
relevant people perhaps, and see how it goes down?
