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...

What does the bottom side look like?

Picked up a 310 Esso Station recently and got round to building it. It's in really nice condition for it's age, probably around 55 years old.

 

batman brickheadz. wanted to see how it sized up in the Ninjago storage/display i built today

Finally got a hold of instructions for my little Record Store. Now just waiting for the stickers to come in.
Cute little Modular.

Me too!! I like the black "Roof " pieces . Neat little build.

 

Just finished up ucs y-wing. I like this build, the detail on the ship is well done. It seems to hold up against repeated fuzzball attacks too! (I'm fostering those guys for local spca)

MILF #1 bags. With the help of a few drams of scotch...

Oops.  Just seeing this.  Didn't forget.  Let me pull out the spinner today/tonight, and I'll post a pic.

No problem....lol

Everything except for the castle pretty much

I  cracked open the Jedi Starfighter with Hyperdrive ring. Bag 3 is super repetitive. I'm still not convinced about the rear of the fighter. I think it stands up too high above the body of the craft.

Tonight I finished building the UCS Tie Fighter. The 30276 poly bag was my first set in twenty years and it was cool to replace it with a proper Tie Fighter. Time to hang more shelves!

Finally got around and finished my BB8

 

 

Finished this cool little set over a few bathroom breaks last week . Bought it mainly because it looked "ok" and for some reason it was cheaper than others in the 20OFFLEGO sale last week (discounted to $10.49 before code vs $11.99 for other Speed Champions set, so picked it up for $8.39+tax - 44% off), but after building it and putting it with my other cars it steals the show. I think it's the whole color combination that makes the car look so awesome. Definite recommendation if you're into Speed Champions.

Somehow I doubt he's the only one .. really, it's not that much different from reading the newspaper or playing golf on your phone while you take care of business.

MILF bags 1-5 completed. So far so good...

Work has calmed down a bit so cracked open this little guy. Great build and some great play features. Looks good next to his buddy.

Built rex's at-te.  Cost me 11 bucks.  Son already having a blast.  Great set and tons of play value.  I think it will yield great profits once retired.

Except it's easier to accidently drop a LEGO piece than a newspaper or phone into the john.

I'm working on a 10188 I got used and had to break down to wash. It seems like I needed more organization. It's going slowly.

Marathon 3 day build to complete the Falcon!  Total build time was around 20 hours and was actually a really straight forward build,  nothing too complicated just lots of parts to look through for each set of bags.  Really stoked - the ship looks amazing!
