Time to break open a few copies and build this MOC?

Since we were talking Jang here recently, the countdown is on: Curious to see if he will do something special for this upcoming milestone ..... He was at 998,200 yesterday, so at this rate tomorrow he will have 1M subscribers. Go Jang!

Small bubble mailer to Canada is ~$9.50 up to 8 oz and includes tracking. Use an online postage service to print your labels and they will include the integrated customs form so no need to wait at the post office. There is no legitimate shipping option for parts from US to Canada that does not include tracking. Some sellers will try to game the rules and try to mail it as a "letter" but they are taking a risk that it either gets returned for inaccurate postage or shredded because "letters" are run through sorting machinery.

It was a sealed City Harbor set 4645 I got for $5

Wanna see a loop on this thing? Here ya go...

Built this gem today. Picked it up on fb for $150 and had to (sarcasm) verify completeness. Sweet set

Does the crease in the outer box affect the build?

‘My summer seasonal display - apologies on the lighting, and I haven’t placed the minifigures yet...

We can only hope.

youve GOT TO SEE THIS! .. its amazing! Makes you want these sets even more.. (from the Brick Fan) https://www.facebook.com/644880835524796/videos/1962657020413831/

Finished building it today. What a great set, no power functions yet. But the kids are having a blast. I'll have to incorporate it into the city amusement partk tomorrow. One of the best sets I think, as it brings to life something most,people have enjoyed. I hope the Ferris wheel retires soon, think I have 25 of those. Stellar theme.

Lol

They send it in an email, I don’t get them though...

Was helping my wife with some work and drove past a couple of yard sales. Guy was selling sets bought for his daughter and she never opened them. $15 for a sealed Ninjago Lightning Dragon Battle #2521 $20 for a sealed Ninjago Fire Temple #2507. I was tempted at a third, but passed because it had been opened, was partially built, and the instructions were tattered. It was #2505 Garmadon's Dark Fortress, asking $15. I think I made the best choices.

Well it is lego after all, which have studs.

3 Orders from LEGO LEGO Shop at Home to get the double promos, and I finally cleared out the last remaining BIONICLE sets (in decent condition, I left a few battered ones) from my local independent toy store for 15% under RRP . These have been a great find for me in the last months, they previously also had multiples of Tahu and the Kopaka & Melum Unity set, all still for under retail

I have my kids blow out the dust daily. That’s how they earn their own LEGO sets.

This is just beyond amazing. This trailer just ticked all of my expectations boxes. + main antagonist as a Lego Friends minifigure which majority of AFOLS hates and still considering as no "kosher" part of the LEGO lineup. - pefrect. I'm so pumped to see this next year. just give me Lando and his "where did you get that sweet space cape brother" and I'm going all-in.

Then I built the UCS Tie from my “build as soon as you come up with some more display space” pile. Saturn V, UCS Hoth, and a 6211 ISD, up next in the queue. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

First I built a new display shelf

So, anyone considering dropping full RRP on a Bugatti probably wants to wait a few days.

Dark Helmet by Marlon Wuytenburg

The front-most bin with the crane also has a "Digger" #7248-1, the bin next to it has the remnants of an "Arctic Expedition" #6573-1

Actually that red "ramp" is Lego, it's the Racer Launcher for Warrior #4569-1 part #30556/red... a 10 cent part from 2001 nobody wants :-)

Working on Hogwarts 4th gen

Got my hands on a Burrow from a used lot.

I built the 70413 The Brick Bounty and it was a fun build that was not repetitive. The shark is missing (I bought set used on CL), is on order from BrickLink and roaming the high seas battling an alligator (in the background of the first picture) is not the same, unless you are sailing in the Florida Everglades or the Louisiana bayou. That imaginative play is beyond my scope and I am a completist. The sails really stand out and that is why I wanted this set. This set is a great alternative to the higher priced ships in the Pirate series, especially for those that got back into Lego a little late like I did and missed the 10210 Imperial Flagship, 6285 Black Seas Barracuda, and the 6243 Brickbeard’s Bounty. The minifigure selection is very good and I am a Pirate series fan! One minifigure is not in the photo, though I did have it (Pirate 4 - Vest and Anchor, Eyepatch ). The Pirate Captain almost looks like Captain Brickbeard, and in some ways looks even better. My only minor complaint with this set is it only comes with two cannons, not four – an easy mod and fix.

Not essentially today but finally after months of planning, ordering multiple times from brick-link, buying from PaB walls in store, redesigning, restructuring, testing, balancing, rebuilding, destroying by accident... I was finally able to finish my extremely frustrating but fantastic project of mounting this extremely fragile but adorable baby on the wall. 75192 is mounted on a solid TV-Mount (plate) attached to the wall with custom extended 4 point weight distribution bolts to keep it well balanced across the mid-structure without putting to much pressure on single section of the chassis. With some extra changes to the weight and centre-balance I was able to give it little more angular aspect to get more "air" on the bottom. Clearance on the top to the wall is about 1.5cm and bottom 6.5cm. That clearance on top and bottom gave me a little more leeway in designing the schematics for lighting kit. After testing with number of different lighting setups I came up with this as a final design. I wanted to give it on the bottom an extra push of light for obvious reasons :) Lighting is fully programmable with already programmed by me ignition sequence - flashing white lights -> red quick ignition pulse -> blue light -> blue light fading in/out. whole thing is remote controlled. reference: https://youtu.be/jPEYpryMp2s?t=75 + custom made sockets (under bottom engine outlets on left and right) for 2x 10 000 mAh Powerbanks to juice the lighting kit because from very beginning I wanted to avoid the cable management situation and keep it as clean as possible. And here it is.. I'm proud but exhausted and tired with whole thing... hope you gonna like it

Ninjago sets from a 90+ set purchase from a few weeks ago. No parts or minifigs were missing on these There were also some smaller Ninjago sets and a 9445 is missing 1 minifig. Thankfully I sold most of the Mega Blok in the lot for $155 to help offset the $175 buy-in. Next up from this lot are the large Star Wars sets.

Love the final result but man was the build frustrating. By far the worst instructions I've had to work with and I've built a lot of classic sets. Cleaning baked in dust and sorting 500+ black pieces added to the frustration (I actually don't mind refurbing classic sets but this one again was more difficult than usual). I added the railing in the back of the "message intercept" section. Anyway, I really dig the abstract nature of classic space base sets. Not all are good but this one and a few of others are kind of beautiful to look at.

Cyborg

Slowly working on Temple of Airjitsu. Finally got the second building together.

Found all the figures in my bulk! Woohoo! Time to list this bad boy up for sale.

i built these two Dragon Sanctuary today. I bought one on auction on ebay ($93) and got another one on CL ($60). Both were 100% complete with boxes and manuals. Sealed ones are way too expensive.

Built 4842 with my 5yo from a bulk buy. Still need to find all the figs floating around in the bulk before I list it up for sale. My kid built most of it while I pulled the pieces for him. He loves Lego just like his daddy!

£7 from a carboot sale, had to replace some missing parts on Bricklink though, total buy-in was around £30.

I think 76060 is on the gradual road to recovery.

I can’t wait to see the MOCs that will combine the first Doctor Strange set with this one.

Westminster, CO Starting 8/10

Tough to tell what all is there but older stuff- Plymouth, MN 7/7

With the new Saturn V Ideas Set this one is gold. The price in Europe for MR has immediately rised after Saturn V release. (Both sets are unique ones that are NASA branded) I have only 10 left (from my former 100) and I won't sell them under 200 Euro...
