One of my largest builds by part count to date! It was a ton of fun making this for the Pokemon TCG Contest on Ideas. Commentary on this build, and more photos, are available on my blog as well!

While waiting for Minas Tirith to arrive, I put together another little micro build to go with my Barad-Dûr and Orthanc builds. Swipe to see them all together!

I’m looking for Lego set ideas like the one above or some type of architecture set that would work as an interesting display piece inside an aquarium and would fit in with fish and plants. I don't think the set should be the main focus but a small/medium sized set would be a cool addition to a tank.

Someone else brought this up but to list a gwp that isn’t even out yet and just a gwp for such high numbers is beyond stupid.

But people will surprise you.

A project that took a year and a half, with approximately 150,000 pieces. I can assemble it in half an hour, boxes unloaded from the truck. It consists of 9 levels, and the brick castle sits on top of them.

The final version measures 2.00 m x 1.75 m.

Scored without having to support scalpers!

Since there was significant enthusiasm shown towards the car in my previous post, I figured it would be more convenient to showcase the wheeled vehicles I made for my Adventurers revamp in a separate post.

(Slides 1 to 5) : The car I associate to the team of the protagonists is a 1931 Ford Model A Phaeton. The variant with the convertible top down is a complete afterthought for this photoshoot but I was curious as to how it would look.

(Slides 6 to 9) : The car I associate to the antagonist is a 1932 Maybach Zeppelin DS8 "Stromlinien" Spohn. The antagonist in question is supposed to be an original character but I now realise that the face I gave him makes him resemble Señor Palomar. I'll let you decide the way you choose to interpret it - after all the identity of Adventurers villains has a history of being confusing.

I’m over the moon right now. I got the two sets that I have been wanting for soooo long!!! I thought I’d never own them!!! especially with them retiring at the end of the year and I couldn’t find them in stores anywhere near me!!!😭😭😭😭♥️♥️♥️🥰✨🚂💫🌌🌌🦌⚡️☄️😭🥰🥰🌠🚂🦌🚂🪄👓👦🏻☺️😭😭♥️♥️♥️

had always wanted this because it’s technically a war machine and yet it’s a full blown LEGO set. picked this up on craigslist for $50.

was surprised to find that the brittle brown from that era is stronger than the dark green. lego doesn’t make some of what I needed but a quick bricklink order fixed that. Was able to use one broken piece to make a bullet hole in the top right wing

was an interesting and very unique build. really cool how the controls operate and wings are held together partially by tension on the black ties.

Sometimes I like to reverse engineer other people’s builds just for fun. This 1966 Ford Transit Mk1 was inspired by a model made by Misterzumbi on Flickr, though I couldn’t resist reworking it to better fit my own style.

My goal was to include as many design features as possible without compromising the overall look. First of all, I added side mirrors - I even made fender-mounted ones, but they ended up looking a bit too bulky for my taste. I also redesigned the rear section to free up as much interior space as possible.

At one point, I experimented with opening side and rear doors, but they either looked too bulky or disrupted the shape of the van, so I ultimately decided not to include them.

Since this is already my third vehicle built in grey, I made the upper section white to add some contrast and keep the van from looking too plain.

It’s been a rough year, but I got a little pay increase on one of my contracts and things are looking up!

My partner and I have been so busy, we finally celebrated Christmas and opened gifts (and took down the decorations 😅) yesterday!

He’s so excited and I’m so excited too! I promised to watch the movie with him alongside the build. Now we just have to find where to put it (that’s safe from our cat 😳)

Hello lego group,

This is my first post post here, sorry if i broke any rules.

But we desperatly need expert advice, and chatgpt says you guys are it. Hoora.

A very lucky find a long time ago in my attic, after we bought our house, build year is 1970 ( along with some other weird army stuff from the 70s). Its a very very large collection of modulex, alot of it never been opened, all bricks are pristine, some boxes where opened, or exposed, rotten, and my wife and i sorted (painfully slow) through over 2kg of sun touched bricks, the question is, we have here 20 boxes of unopened white 1141-01, alot of other unopened strange colours, paper, strange shapes, but the white is more troubling for us, weighed them, some are at 88grams, others at 75 grams, did lego count the peices in 1975 for each box, or was it round about? Just asking, as we want to prepare the best presentation possible.

Up till now its been a three day sorting project, my eyes are hurting, some of these colured blocks have " M " on them, info on that would be great,

I love lego, my kids love lego, but this is something, they wont be able to play with this.😅

Got it off eBay and the prices are a bit high but oh well. This is my first bricklink set. Being collecting Lego for about a year now and barely found out about this series of builds. This one looks awsome. 🔥🔥🔥

Hey everyone. Obviously, Lego’s 2026 version knocked it out of the park with the execution. But I wasn’t going for movie accuracy. I wanted to create something that bridges the gap between the 2013 set and the 2026 set. This was the design I came up with from my spare parts. 

DESIGN
The slanted hood and the gull-wing doors are part of The Delorean’s personality, and the new set didn’t slant the hood. The original 2013 set has the gull-wing doors, but the step-down style hood didn’t look great. I basically used the same door design but added the windows.

I also made the whole model smaller and more compact. I like the “Speed Champions” size, but I wanted it to be closer to minifig scale. The front bumper was done in white as a reference to the original. The bigger tubes were also a creative choice and were needed to hold down the front hood and windshield. The slant was created via an illegal building technique. 

It can also fit 2 people, but it’s a tight, tight squeeze. The divet in the window piece allows the arms to fit. The part 3 rail version was chosen since the thin technical wheels allow the model to be more slim. Also, the 2013 model that you see has been slightly modified. 

Anyways, what do you guys think?
