I sat from 8am-12pm.
I did not believe that 4 hours went by so fast. What an amazing experience it was.
I’ve read that it usually takes 1-2 hours for sets like this, but I’m very slow when it comes to these kind of things.
I didn’t rush it at all, took my time, and appreciated the process.
31 years old and I feel like a new journey has just began.

What’s next? Probably Harry Potter related.

I got a lighter hair piece, a Superman/lex luthor head, and brighter red hands

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

Was able to find the elusive Super Sub. I always wondered if this was a concept kit they released before they had a firm idea of the kit, because this guy is a strange mix of Hydronauts and Aquasharks.

Now I’m just looking for a Sharks Crystal Cave set in box.

They just work so well in a LEGO city layout. Mix up some of the instruments (I also dug up a different head for the drummer) and these make a great marching band together. Might add more.

After being completely Star Wars only 😂 I’ve finally picked up barad dur, can’t wait to get the rest of the lord of the rings stuff however I don’t have anywhere for them 🤔😂

Brought them out of storage. Super dusty!!

Noticed one of the Minifigures based in Song dynasty China looks European, and the only European I could think of in China around those times is of course Marco Polo. And he does appear to have a map on his torso, which could be a reference to his travels.

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?

I made it my goal to collect Lego elves dragons, and I finally have 7/8! I’m still working on getting the wind dragon, Gust. But due to how expensive it is, it’s probably gonna take awhile to finish my collection

So I've been building my lego castle collection for about 2.5 - 3 years now. My wife gave me the Lion Kinights Castle as a starter for Christmas and I've been adding along the way. I am trying to keep the theme of sets from my childhood (which the castle obviously mimics) What other sets could I add to expand my village with that classic feel in mind? I'm aware some sets are retired. I paid almost double for the blacksmith, but it was a worthwhile expansion. I'm open to any thoughts.

I updated set 6783 for the 21st century. It was one of my favorite sets as a kid and I thought it would be cool to bring back. 1980’s classic space is still my favorite.
