Two of our more popular threads are "What LEGO set(s) did you buy today?" and "What LEGO set(s) did you sell today?" These threads are filled with great information. But we all know LEGO bricks are about "building" LEGO sets and models, so why shouldn't we talk about it on this site as well? I mean, many LEGO sets that are fantastic builds are also investment winners, so why shouldn't people share some of their experiences of build and set quality that might affect LEGO set values, either positively or negatively? Let us know what you built today and your overall thoughts on the set. Don't forget to leave more in depth reviews in our LEGO SET REVIEWS section...

The Sea Calf.

Looked like a fun build with some nice pieces... especially at 50% off. I'll go buy the rest of them if they make it to the next round of discounts.

Enjoying some time off work so finally got to sit down for a few hours and finish this beauty off!! As a huge Disney fan, this was a really fun build for me!! Now just to find a place to display it....

Enjoyed the Christmas holiday with family and built this oldie/goodie over the past couple days. I bricklink'ed this set after pulling about half of it from my bulk collection. Enjoyable build and happy to add it to the modular street.

My son and I finished Assault on Hoth today.

Hhhmmm , one of these UCS sets is not like the other....

A used Battle Of Endor (8038) to go with the Ewok Village. Awesome!

Not LEGO again, but a nice set. My Son's Christmas present and he loves this stuff.

Nice! I scored a NISB one off of eBay for $17 a couple months back.

Yeah I was pretty stoked to find it for that price. I wanted it years ago and never got it. It was a random stroke of luck find haha. 

The last of the used sets I picked up this year.  

I have been doing some builds with the kids during the holidays this year as usual...Finished up our 75153 AT-ST Walker this morning.  Baze is pretty sweet as far as mini figures go.  We never built an AT-DP or an AT-AP when they were out over the last couple of years, so I was kind of excited about this one.  Overall, we enjoyed building the set and like it!  Would be nice if the Walker walked more easily, but I understand the design constraints for a set of this size.

Got K-2SO for my birthday (31st is my birthday actually but gotta work tomorrow). My first SW Buildable Figure. I have seen Rogue One the 27th of DEC (RIP Carrie Fisher). I enjoyed the movie a lot, pure entertainment and I always love to watch the ships on a big screen. Those Y-wings looked fantastic and the Imperial Star Destroyer is just amazing. Krennics' Shuttle is pretty nice as well! During the movie, my friends saw this big boy smiling like a little kid...and they made me smile again today with this present. A fun build and it looks great!

Quality friends right there. The force is strong with them

I am one with the Baileys and the Baileys is one with me.

My daughter built one, and I built one (for my son). He was really only interested in Maui and the sister was not giving up her Maui.

He knows how to party!

Finished up this guy today. Started yesterday afternoon and finished tonight. Really fun build and magnificent display but this thing is very unstable. It needs a home and to be never touched again.

Those little tiki minifigure heads are neat. Silly but neat.

They are cute and funny but....well, don't be fooled by that.

That looks awesome. I lucked into one on CL for cheap about two (?) years ago. It was missing about 100 parts (almost as if they forgot one small section of the build because it was onesies twosies that were missing).

I really want to get to building it. I agree with you. Build it and then find a home because it looks fragile (in my case, a home is someone else's home)
