March 3, 201411 yr We finished the Haunted House, and now we are working on the Crazy Scientist and His Monster. It's a fun build. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker
March 5, 201411 yr I built the logging truck with my son last evening and it's not only a fun build but also a lot of fun to play with
March 5, 201411 yr Built a Melting Room and a Spider Cycle Chase over the past couple nights. Melting Room is ok, the SHIELD vehicle from the chase set is pretty decent. Venom is cool, the face printing seems more detailed than most minifigure heads I've seen.
March 5, 201411 yr Built a slave I. Need to dig around for some missing pieces. Sent from my iPod touch using Brickpicker
March 5, 201411 yr Built my 7191 for only the second time since getting it. Most of the pieces are discolored from sitting on display for a few years.
March 8, 201411 yr Finished the Tumbler from 7888. 98+% original so far. Still sifting through the bulk lot it came with for a few of the parts. A couple of the missing pieces have a sticker too. grrr.... Happy though, it should fetch a pretty penny either way. The Ice Cream Truck is proving to be difficult to find.
March 10, 201411 yr I am not really a builder but just finished weathertop with some help from my son. set could have been bigger but I thought it was well built and had interesting angles/pieces...the ringwraiths are very cool and set comes with nice figs... 3 rings. this set only had 400 pieces and took some effort - I wonder how I am going to handle a modular haha. guess I have to pace myself
March 10, 201411 yr Built all but one of the mixels. (Got two of one set by accident) I know there's not a lot of love for these but gf and I like them. Going to have a contest next weekend to see who can make the best mixel monster out of all the sets. Should be fun with two winners and no losers.
March 10, 201411 yr Just a few of th esets I have built from my bulk buy....... Just 40 some more sets to go for this bulk purchase........
March 10, 201411 yr Built battle of hoth and the x-wing from a trade to sell, tomorrow is sail barge and tie fighter
March 10, 201411 yr Started 7775 Aquabase Invasion tonight. What a really cool set. After building most of the sets of this theme, I think Aqua Raiders is a really underrated theme - right there with Power Miners on the underrated scale.
March 15, 201411 yr Built Farnsworth House. Fun build but a bit tedious putting down the 1x1 flat pieces.
March 16, 201411 yr I built Jabba's Palace, Rancor Pit and Desert Skiff with my kids...it was good day!
March 16, 201411 yr Just started on the mini modulars I got used and "almost complete" for a fair price. I only have the first corner so far, but it already now looks cute.
March 16, 201411 yr Just started on the mini modulars I got used and "almost complete" for a fair price. I only have the first corner so far, but it already now looks cute. I'm missing just 7 bricks from the Mini Modular set that I tried to Bricklink. I may start it tonight.
March 16, 201411 yr I'm missing just 7 bricks from the Mini Modular set that I tried to Bricklink. I may start it tonight. Just curious, how much did it cost to bricklink the mini-modular?
March 16, 201411 yr Minecraft Nether and Village for my desk @ work. Forest next. I have ample spare pieces to build some add-ons. I've never played Minecraft, but I got these cheap, and they look decent enough to go with my microscale builds (which now require some subterranean details). Our cubes are going away so I'll have far less room to display larger sets. The book shelf in my cube was quite long, and once held GE, FB, PS, PC, and TH modulars. Needless to say, people enjoyed looking at them. I'd often be away from my desk for meetings, etc., and would return to find strangers (it's a large office) standing in my cube staring at the mods and peering into the windows (which i made worth their while by adding some interesting scenes). With the new, smaller, low-wall style workspaces, most people will be telecommuting, but people (and I) will still need some LEGO to view. Plus, people who think of squatting in my space will know it's 'occupied'.
March 16, 201411 yr Working on an SSD. SHould be done tomorrow. Absolute beast of a set. So impressive.
March 16, 201411 yr Just curious, how much did it cost to bricklink the mini-modular? I'm not sure. I'm going to guess it would have better to just grab one off of eBay. I had a couple of bulk sets around, so I thought I could grab the bricks from those sets. But, here are so many tiny pieces in this set, it's a challenge. I probably bought about half the bricks. That was about $50 or $60. I only substituted 2 bricks out of 1300+. This one isn't one for the faint of heart to BL. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

Tonight, I built the truck from Loki's Cosmic Cube Escape (modified slightly to fit into my Winter Village) and the first part of the Mini Modulars. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker
March 16, 201411 yr Just finished a 2505 Garmadon's Dark Fortress set, out of a bulk lot. Was pleasantly surprised at how good a build it was. Best part was it was 100% complete with box, instructions and an unused sticker sheet
March 16, 201411 yr Chima: Laval's Royal Fighter (70005) - This was mostly a Technic build, much to my surprise. If you need a little introduction to Technic, this is a good one.
March 16, 201411 yr I couldn't help myself but simply had to finish the mini modulars yesterday. In fact, it wasn't really until today very early morning that I did. It looks so cute, I hope Lego does a second edition with the newer sets. 15 pieces turned out to be missing, but all of them are pretty standard stuff, nothing that should be trouble to BL. And for $50 shipped I don't complain. Happy.
March 16, 201411 yr Let me start it off by telling you what I built recently. I built the 10174 STAR WARS UCS AT-ST. It took me about 4 hours to build while watching TV and was well worth it. Big set...surprisingly so. Very realistic. I just didn't like that there was no interior parts or details. I love greebles. Overall...a winner in my book. These are great sets i buy these and build and flip regularly, Really great build
