Actually, a friend had suggested that I buy black and white parts (with the clear round blocks for eyes) to make Berkshire! Any kind collector can suggest basic sets?

I think it uses the pink pig build, so if you have bought the kit, just study the instructions, calculate the amount and type of blocks required and change the colours accordingly.

The only problem is where you get the clear blocks for eyes. If you wouldn't mind not having any clear blocks, you could use 2 1/2F white blocks to replace them.

Use this as ref: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=696804073705610&set=oa.668103333232178&type=3&theater

Thanks for your help! I have two clear round blocks leftover from my first set, so I can use them for the eyes.

Anyone knows who can I contact regarding the missing pieces in my set? Bought my Sight to See Tower Bridge from Kiddy Palace and threw away the receipt...so they said cannot do exchange. Missing many of the 2x1 block :(

Can you try giving proof of transaction like credit card bills?

I think the monotone colour set may work...need to count how many of each type is needed though. I guess the design is the same as the pink pig? It looks like the same to me...besides, I don't have Eiffel so buying the monotone set can kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

Thanks for your help Stevie!

o_O

who are you? hahaha...

that's really weird...
it's not uncommon to be missing a few pieces.
but to be missing many pieces...:(:(

Haha, I happened to see that someone else referred to you as Stevie.

8 pieces is a lot? I used 2 extras from another kit, so now I need 6 more. So I can't build the little boat and complete the linking bridge thing. By the way, I made a mistake, the correct term is 1x2, single stud.

Paid in cash, removed and threw away the price tag as well. About 8 pieces are missing, and now my tower looks weird without the linking part.

Have you tried rebuilding everything? There is likely that you mistook one type of block for something else; 1X2 blocks look like 1X2 single dot blocks.

You may want to try contacting the local distributor and see if you can get any help: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lancashire-Toys/412866645475702?fref=ts

You can also post on nanoblock page and ask if anyone can assist you on your problem. Note that the chance of getting a reply is 50:50: https://www.facebook.com/pages/nanoblock/112052868841996?fref=ts

If all fails...really can suck thumb hard. :s22:

Thanks for your help! Managed to contact the local distributor and crossing my fingers that it will be resolved soon. Else, just use the ones in the monotone set that I'm planning to buy.

I'm in the midst of rebuilding the Tower Bridge, so far, no parts were "misused".

I really hope there's a STS version of the London Eye someday...too much to wish for?

I didn't see this in the thread, so I thought I'd poison:

i.imgur.com/a4JHMq0.jpg

(what do you mean I don't have sufficient post count, my last thread already let me link...)

Tokyu Hands circa May 9-11, they said it was a new release, dunno when.

The 2nd image 12.8k yen one offcamera is also a full set, I forgot which train it was, the Yamanote line one I think...

The wheel and electric track sets are also sold separately; buying these and a train of your choice still comes up to 12.8k, so you don't have to buy a full set...

Also have buildings such as train platforms and crossings...

Dunno if its coming to SG, but them are Japanese rail lines so... probably not. <_<'

I can't embed the images as your image links for some reasons but I think you are talking about NanoGauge?

It has been released some time ago.

I removed the img and http stuff in front or the forum wouldn't let me post, and yes I was talking about nanogauge.

Ah well, scooped, so nevermind.
