Think he was talking about polos which could double up as a spare wheel

I had to check that the date wasn't April 1st, you couldn't make this up
.
It's on the front page of the Evening News. :faf:
The wheels came of their bus
When WE were 2 nil down
Absolutely no shame ! :na na:
The lego bus is front page spread in the EEN :confused:
That's a rip off, a genuine Lego set wouldn't cost you that for an equivalent.
Desperados! 😂 😂 😂
Apparently it's not even the right badge on it. The video they have released for it is comedy gold.
Lego has factories that can make injection-moulded plastic bricks to order and keep production costs down. This is just some tube with a 3D printer doing a very small and expensive run of these things, and I suspect the cost of making these is pretty damn high to begin with. I suspect the margins are a lot lower than you think.
The only saving grace for this business model is that they're maybe not stupid enough to have manufactured the whole run yet. If they have, they'll likely turn a loss when not even the most hardcore Jambo chooses to shell out cash for this guff and they knock the price down below what it costs to make. Otherwise, they make them to order and it's not a catastrophe for these geniuses...
I can't even make out what Locke says at the end of the video.
"It's made of Lego" ??
"It's nae even Lego" ??
They really are a strange bunch.
If that videos been done in response to the bad publicity its brilliant. Got my doubts though.
Still doesnt take away from the fact there tryn to shaft their supporters with an embarrassing failure of a product mind you. £79.99 😂
The video is obviously damage limitation but tbf I did laugh out loud.
I reckon it has been, and if that was Hibs releasing that video in response to that PR disaster we'd probably get away with it. However hearts are so spectacularly tinpot that no-one can really be sure if it's a serious video or not. Plus they're so po-faced in everything else they do that trying to pull off a humorous response just falls flat on its face.
Glorious
