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...

AVATAR LAST AIRBENDER 3829 FIRE NATION SHIP

Finished this one up with my son today

 

Built the power armor lex with my four year old. Really neat set. I can see why it will be a good investment.

Second half of Arkham Asylum breakout. First half was yesterday.

It is an interesting build in that the gate part is dull and not very sturdy but the first two towers are a lot of fun. Looks really good on my bookcase

Ex astris, scientia.

Nice trifecta. Are you planning on building the alternate designs for each as well?

I was thinking about that today... Should I buy two more of each, I thought... Hmmm... I like displaying only.

With the Creator sets especially the houses, I try to buy three so I can display all builds at the same time beside one another then take each apart to create something from them all but that's just my thing.

Metal Beard Dual yesterday to get ready for the movie, and Lord Business's Evil Lair today after the movie. I just love the Kragle, so funny. Also managed to find a "where are my pants" CMF to go with the couch on the Evil Lair set. Nice play value, my son is loving them.

Just built the Lone Ranger Constitution Train with my daughter........

Awesome!  I can't wait to build it with my daughter.  I'm playing on modifying it into a Christmas train.  Can't wait...

It was a holiday in BC today so I built sets all afternoon! Did Duel on Genosis, Catwoman Catcycle City Chase, A-Wing Starfighter, and Anakin's Jedi Interceptor.

I built the United Nations Headquarters for my desk at work.  I've got a lot of jealous coworkers right now. 

Aviation Adventures!  Whoosh...!

Nothing special.  Dol Guldur Ambush. Boring. Great minifigs

Cloud Cuckoo Palace and I really wasn't impressed.  I will probably part it out and sell the minifigs and unikittie since many are saying is thing to do for flipping.  Have another one I'm saving.  Got them both at WM with no deal.

I built one of these out of spare pieces I have.

Then I built another, but completely in black with a yellow vintage minifig

will be listing both soon.

Neat little set. I bought a bulk lot with a lot of Classic Spaces sets in them and it looks like this set could be in there.

Just finished An Unexpected Gathering.  Not really interested in Hobbit type of stuff, but since I have 10 of this set from Walmart, might as well check out how it looks.

Turns out it's a pretty good build, there are a lot of good small pieces that can be used for other MOC projects.

2x 10233! It's awesome! Just waiting on my PF train motor, LEDs and speed controller to get here for it to be truly "done."

 

Well... to have a better copy of the french "horizon express" (called "TGV" for "Train

snow days are great for building for gf

2 more furry creatures 31021

1 more forrest animal 31019

a highway speedster 31006

and a 31025 mountain hut

I finished building the 4842 Hogwarts Castle I posted in the trade thread. What a fun build and set. Lots of cool details, I was impressed. And only a few missing pieces, haha.
