Hello folks,

I've just returned from a trip on KLM (Royal Dutch Airline), who have a • new
airline exclusive set in their catalogue - number 4778, a single-minifig
propellor biplane in a brown and yellow colour scheme (doesn't look as • yukky
as it sounds). I can't find any reference to this set on Brickset or • Lugnet
yet, but the set has 108 pieces and is broadly similar to other minifig
biplanes such as 5928 (Adventurer's biplane) except the wings are • slightly
swept back, and it is clearly supposed to be an explorer's plane rather • than
a warplane as there is a compartment behind the pilot containing some • tools,
binoculars etc (although it has air force style roundels on the wings).

Anyway, I brought two spare sets back with me so if anyone would like • one
then let me know. The price is 16 Euros (converted to GBP - not sure • exactly
how much yet) plus postage. I can email some pictures if you want.

I also bought one for myself - my first Lego purchase for abour a year - • I
have been having a mini dark ages.

Sorry, if everyone knows about this set already.

Colin

Hi Colin,

I'll take one please - could you e-mail me with a total and how you'd me • to send
the payment. phoenix_dat@yahoo.co.uk

Thanks,

PS: I've already tried e-mailing you but it didn't work.

Hi, from a fellow UK AFOL.

Caught the name and thought that's a bit close.

Where abouts in the UK are you?
