Well, my attempted return of HoME to Amazon Spain finally arrived back with me (round-trip 10 weeks for a 7 day service ). Original Amazon-printed return address and return customs details all perfectly legible, so no idea why it didn't get delivered.
Once I have re-assembled the slipcase (which is now in 4 pieces), I'll post up some comparisons of the differences between clays and Lego.
I'm not returning the damn thing again (and I've been refunded). I photographed the returned package, just to be on the safe side.
[Edit - It is every bit as rubbish as I remembered]

Don't know much about this as yet, 1st August 2018, The Fall of Gondolin, hardback from HarperCollins

I'm excited to find out more about this (given that online retailer databases are not always accurate...)
Oh my, this is bordering on exciting. Online sources suggest 304 pages which is big considering the material already published.
Any thoughts?

If I have to hazard a guess this early...
I don't think the August book is the Fall of Gondolin. It is possible there are two books in the works, or perhaps FoG is in development and the August date is wrong, or...
We may learn more in two weeks at The London International Book Fair. If these are leaks of something to be announced soon, that would be a good place for an announcement to take place.

I'll run under the assumption that - like B&L - there won't be anything much new, and it will essentially be a repackaging with a bit of extra commentary. It is hard to see how it could be anything else (as with B&L).
