i’ll show you gf’s collection in a bit, its mega
I am excited for this.
Do you have cats (I know you have dogs)? Because they love selecting themselves a little piece of lego to bat around which is now a concern with a more mobile baby. Just thought I would warn you of upcoming dangers!
no just the two dogs, i think theyd be more inclined to chomp a bit so we’re pretty careful about where we leave stuff
Current creation that gets the most play is this nifty pizza place (not as good as the cafe which preceded it where I made an awesome kitchen, but R did make this one all himself):
Hmmm. It’s showing (to me) that video as unavailable. Came from the Lego fb page, if anyone’s wondering.
I think I had this one when The Phantom Menace came out! Spent ages swooshing it around, lost a good chunk of the parts. This looks a lot less blocky from the one I had, as far as I remember.
Had a TIE Fighter as well, which looked like Minecraft and was for some reason mainly blue.
Definitely got way more detailed maybe since the movies/video games made them a big hot piss brand.
They’ve done a big 20th anniversary series of refreshed designs. Love this one the clear plastic to help it stand actually works really well.
Oh wow, that Slave 1 from the 20th Anniversary range looks very nice.
Such a shame the design of the ships in the sequel trilogy was pretty poor. I don’t really like the prequels, but there’s so many good looking ships from those films I could happily buy a Lego model of. They held a vote recently on which ship should be the next in the big posh adult baby / wanker range, and the Repubic Gunship won it. Could really see myself buying one if we’re still in lockdown when it comes out… I would have to move house to make space for it though.
If I was rich I think I’d just sit around and make lego all day
Yeah I absolutely love the Naboo Starfighter, would love a new set of that.
Annoyingly they only seem to do a very expensive Poe Dameron x eing at the moment, would love a regular x wing set
So many windows
(bit jealous, we don’t have enough windows for my liking)
My YouTube travels introduced me to this website
they do really beautiful looking custom designs for a lot of stuff including Star Wars. You buy a pdf of instructions off them, then buy all the parts individually. They all look really nice, and I think it’s much cheaper to buy the pieces alone rather than as part of a set. I’d like to do an X-Wing and a Y-Wing and maybe a TIE Fighter at some point, but it’ll be a while until I have the space and money for them.
yeah, it was a pair of sets that gifted them to me…

My son was telling me about people who buy old Lego sets to asset strip the mini-figures, which are worth more or something. What a world.
Ours lives next to the TV standing on it’s rockets
Odd. Surely the building bricks are the whole appeal of the thing and the little people are just nice extras.
