LEGO Questions & Answers

Hi folks, is this altered flag that is meant to represent/symbolize the actual US flag "appropriate", meaning that it does not offend or disrespect anyone aka being "politically correct"? The only other option would be to change red to the top und blue to the bottom - would this be the better alternative?

Hi. I got the Stranger Things Upside Down Lego set. Its super cool and loved putting it together. In the end though I noticed there is some stress with the model. Namely the roof doesn't like to stay on nicely. Also at the back middle it kinda pops open. When I look online I do not see this anywhere. I am curious if anybody might know where I went wrong? I feel like I put it together correctly and that if I didn't it wouldn't work at all. The image I attached should help. I'm curious if it could some how be in the foundation. Like something was offset in there or something ended up in there. From what I can tell no though because I can kinda push stuff t…

Any way of safely cleaning and flattening LEGO Sails ? THANKS !

I've been out of the loop for a bit so forgive me if this has been discussed or covered. Im trying to figure out why Brickclassifieds won't load on my 'puter. Are they defunct or rebuilding their site?

I just bought Kylo Rens shuttle 75104, box is sealed, and all bags are sealed. step one, build kylo ren and storm trooper. no mini figure parts in bag...No mini figures at all in set. Has this happened to anyone? returning set to Walmart to exchange.

Looking for 48x48 stud (15"x15") white base plates. Does Lego make them or do I need to go 3rd party? I need suggestions for a trustworthy Lego compatible company if that's the case.

My friend and I came up with an idea to help LEGO investors, and make investing easier, in the words of my friend. The overall concept is to have everything in one place, buying, selling, all the online stores, and portfolios, for example. You would have a portfolio of all your LEGO sets, like the one on BrickPicker, and each (day) it would update to the latest price, to get a more accurate portfolio. It would also have a daily chart for each LEGO set showing the price for about 5 years. It would be like a stock chart. And instead of the stock ticker, it would be the set number! Then if you want to purchase the set, you go to the trade tab, and pick one of…

parts 61287pb002 and 61287pb001 I bought these new off BL for a Town Hall but I can't seem to find the LEGO trademark on either. I see the number 3 on one and 4 the other. Thinking it is a fake. Can one of you that has a TH easily accessible check for me. I'll admit my eyes aren't what they were but any help is appreciated. I keep getting an error "There was a problem processing the uploaded file. -200 " trying to upload other better closeup pics

Where do I find brick folio so I can start one for my boy as I read posts about it but can't see how to actually do one?

What approaches do people take to protect themselves from unscrupulous buyers who falsely claim minifigs are missing from sealed sets and want a refund? Pop seals, verify and reduce asking price? Can you insist refunds will not be permitted due to missing parts?

I've recently not been able to purchase through Legos online shop store. After speaking with them and verifying my account was all fine. The review team sent a email stating my address is not a home address but a freight forwarding service which they do not ship too. I was wondering if anyone has had this issue and is there a way to fix it without moving to a whole different home lol... So far Lego hasn't helped in solving issue and I only just started buying Lego which was about $200 worth.

I think so, I'm a DC and super hero guy, and there are allot of new Lego super hero sets that are coming out. Like the Avengers Infinity War sets are already out at Amazon, Lego.com, and Walmart. So I think the super hero sets are an investment. What do you guys think?

I am collecting Lego store I Love "City" magnets and keychains. I have found some from ebays. However, Ebay has very limited collections of them. So, my plan is to make a phone call to lego store and ask them if they take an order over phone and send I Love "City" magnets and keychains to my address? Do you guys know which lego stores take an order over the phone?

I am fairly new to lego, well, I have known about lego for most of my life ( we will call it 20 years... ) is this the best place to ask questions with regards to starting out? But not buy and sell questions?

Anybody have info on how to apply to sell legos in a store? My wife has a brick and mortar and wanted to start carrying collectible minifigs. She's wondering how to order wholesale cases of them.

Hello! I just wanted to start this topic, because this Sets offers a lot of interesting pieces and a whole lot of opportunities for alternativs builds! My Son and me just build a beach house on stilts on the beach. Looking forward for your Ideas, because most of us have.....time.

Does anyone have the list of “300 or so” bricks that the LEGO stores are able to choose from for their pick a brick wall? Supposedly you can order a case from them, but how to k ow what I want if I don’t have a list of what’s available!!!

Does anyone think there's any reason for the difference in colors of the sold out status on SaH? One is red and the other is orange. Just kind of odd I guess...

I was in Costco yesterday and they had 1 Marvel Advent calendar, 1 lol. I was shocked they didn't have any other themes, let alone just 1 single box on the shelf this early. Did I miss out and they blew through all their inventory? Last year I got several HP and star wars on clearance they had so many...

I have a Lego set that the box is open. Only one of the five factory sealed bags is open. All pieces in that one open bag are accounted for. Since this is not "new" but is closer to new than used, how to price this? Somewhere in between the new and used value? The set is Minecraft 21134.

Hi, My very first question in this forum simply because looking at it amaze me. I saw a lego house that is able to open up in half like a doll house. Can I check if anyone know which set is that? Does it come from lego creator series? Also appreciate on some advice to use specific brick to create any house that can open up. Thank you.

Hey everyone, Sorry if this is posted elsewhere, but I was curious if anyone knew the top of the line (industry standard so to speak) of programs used for MOC's. I know bricklink themselves has a program built in their website, and I have heard of Lego Digital Designer, LDraw and Mecabricks. I also believe I have heard AutoCAD used. Just wanted to get some solid information on which one is the most popular out there right now. My main goal is obviously to create detailed instructions for my MOC. I work off of a MAC too if that has any significance to what programs I can or cannot use.

I'm looking for guidance / lessons learned on building a vertical lift roller coaster like Mark & Boone did on Lego Masters. Mark does mention it "waits three seconds and then..." so I assume some logic has to be in there? I don't have Mindstorms or PoweredUp right now, but do have Power Functions and Qty 132 of the technic chain link... would Mindstorms or PoweredUp be required to accomplish the vertical lift? If so, that might answer most of my questions. If anyone has attempted this type of project and has any lessons learned I'd appreciate it!

I know, odd to think of nothing but audio about a hands-on and visual building toy, but I often listen to a variety of podcasts while I'm at work during the day. So I thought, why not expand my knowledge on LEGO? Does anyone know of any podcasts or audio shows about it? Maybe just history, or even investing? Anything really, just wanna learn more about it while I have some headphones and eight hours of time.

Hi guys, thanks for taking a second to read this. Short and to the point, any advice you can give for someone looking to buy from Brick Classifieds. There have been a few times that I wanted to pull the trigger on things... almost bought a Taj Mahal for cheap and later realized it was fraud. After noticing that, I almost completely ignore good deals I see on there... but damn, there have been some deals I've wanted to take advantage of! Any advice or wisdom... is there a lot of fraud on there? I hate the internet!
