My take on Ship in a Bottle

Built a sand castle with the family on vacation...final height was just over five feet!

What bag are you on?

Rare Ninja Mutant set available. Shop.

The few missing parts I ordered arrived for the Indiana Jones 7623 Temple Escape set I bought off CL ($40) recently and it was a fun build with a lot of play features. It is an impressive set for its size and it will be a little bit sad when it sells since I bought it for investment. It did come with both instruction manuals and that was a bonus.

Happy to share deals if it benefits the BP community. Keeps it off HDUK and Amazon (if it's a current set).

Beautiful rendition of the Ford GT designed by the 1:8 scale super car king @loxlego My photos are crap, so if you want further info go here. This shelf is pretty much his shelf.

Grabbed one of the Winter Village Stations from Wal-Mart at 20% off for Christmas display. Can't recall many discounts lower than that on the Christmas Creator sets.

All-in-one HP, SW, JP

Kick ass set.

Sculpting by Marco Zanconi

Wow. Chewie looks so much younger. I hardly recognize him.

Finally got around to finishing up my Tatooine diorama. The mini Sandcrawler is something I built a couple of years ago. Tried a bit of forced perspective with mixed results.

Big Trouble by Grantmasters

I’m working on a moc of the cantina scene using parts from 2 of 75052 and 1 of the recently released 75205. Still gotta add some more tables and then populate with aliens and whatnot. Im no expert moc man. I borrowed the design from someone off Facebook. Still toying around. Suggestions are welcome!

Lukewarm deal at best

I don't believe it. LOL. My sand castles never look like that!

My good missus discovered the site when I was looking for more info on a bag of Lego I bought at a market. It was a decent price. I decided to join the forum and to see what I could learn and contribute.

Looks like he has shoulder pads, a fanny pack, and that he forgot to remove his curlers.

Friends pizzeria 41183 - £12 Tesco.

I lucked into that set cheap on eBay a couple years ago. I need to build it sometime. Indy sets are one of my biggest regrets. I was still in my dark ages, but taking my daughter to LEGOLAND when those were out. I remember seeing them on the shelves. I even thought to myself “if I collected LEGO I’d buy those.”

High Garden!

Oh! She is a Beauty! by Tim Lydy

Can someone post a link? I'm having a hard time finding it on their wonky site. edit...never mind. Finally found it. Good deal.

Was planning on building this weekend but had some "complications". Pretty excited about it though.

I really hope they make a Winter Village Renault F1 car.

In terms of Forbes rich list, she is.

Bold Arrow doesn't need no black card...he makes his own cards

Looks like it is available at Toys R Us again. https://www.toysrus.com/product?productId=137247196

I guess you can polish a turd and it ends up being white and blue. That thing is ugly, whether it matches the film or not. To me the MF will always be the fastest hunk of junk.

One is already too many.

The Fantastic Beasts movie was aimed at a slightly older target age compared to the Harry Potter movies, which especially with the first two movies was very watchable for kids below 10 years old. My 11 year old son has watched all the movies, though the last few were a slight bit frightening for him. But he hasn't watched Fantastic Beasts ... yet. His situation is far from unique, which I think is a good explanation why the Fantastic Beasts sets didn't do nearly as well as the HP movie sets. It's a mistake LEGO keeps making, when they produce LEGO sets connected to movies which are watched by late-teenagers who don't play with LEGO any longer. Kids actually playing with LEGO are in the 3-13 age group by far. Of course there are also older kids still playing with LEGO, but they are in the small minority compared to their peers. It's the exact time we call The Lego Dark Ages ...

Well, in your area dinosaurs are probably not extinct yet. They won´t want to dilute interest in the new film.

The Sleepy Oak by tiberium_blue

Finally got round to buying the snowspeeder. Although a more accurate and detailed build with nice touches still prefer the original since I fell it’s more imposing since a bit blockier.

Picked up 7894 airport from a charity shop for a fiver, box was a bit faded. Expected the worst when I put it together this afternoon. To my amazement all present and correct mint with all three instruction books. Looks like it was built twelve years ago and put straight back in the box again, right result ??

Great build. Had not built a proper lego ship in about 20 years.

Finished off the Detective’s Office tonight. Probably among my top 3 Modular Buildings so far in my collection.

Lego Creative Toolbox 17101

170 on the new Falcon. Wow. They seem to be building 40% discounts into their pricing now.

Please tell me you've seen Spaceballs! If not, then Dot Matrix is going to scratch your eyes out.

exactly 3 of each one per box? I don't think that's true. The guest of Tara Wike (Lead CMF Designer) said in this interview (starting at 2:40) "They're not randomly distributed, but they're not equally distributed?" and she confirmed, "Some are more frequent". "If we think one will be really popular, we try to make it more frequent."

Built the Dragster Transporter set and it was bought for its versatility. So glad I bought a few for investment too. This set seems to be a winner and we are using it as more a heavy cargo transport. We have that one also. ?

Late 2018. Will continue to be avail at other retailers into 2019.

I built this with my two 6 year olds. It was going to be one story. Every time we finished a floor, I asked them if they wanted to add another. The patios were their idea. The boy was also insistent on an elevator, which is what that hole on the left is the future site of. I have no idea how I'm going cram some kind of elevator in there. I just posted in a Minecraft thread asking this; but, if anyone has any links to elevator building info, I could use it. This is the first time using hinges to make a house that opens up. The kids love it. When we start building, they want to know what the "special feature" will be. "Okay, okay, you can bring it to the breakfast table."
