Lego

You will notice in the upcoming (I think) newsletter, I have a new passion, LEGO!

I found my brother and cousin legos I used to play as kid and I started playing again

Sets are from the 80s and 90s, not a single one with instructions (but I can easy find them online) and not a single set with all the pieces ;_;

But having pieces from about ten sets makes me able to make many things so I'm playing everyday

I will also buy new legos in the future, this will be likely my first buy

Legos are awesome!

I really want to buy the Star Wars Death Star but it's sooooo expensive 

 

[Micchan]

it's sooooo expensive 

I know, I know ;_;

I want this

Biggest set ever, over 7000 pieces

Too bad it's 800€ aka $930

I used to play with legos, till I stepped on some and then I promised myself never to touch it again

 

[Micchan]

Another one I really want to buy

I've got a literal ton of Lego under my bed, even more K'nex. Not got any of the massive sets. If you want to expand your collection, job lots on ebay are great ways to do it and on sites like craigslist and like facebook groups

This is a MOC made by an italian guy, 24916 pieces, yep

36€ for the instructions and the price for all the pieces is... 5650€ (around $6600)

This guy has some amazing MOCs: https://www.flickr.com/photos/bevinsbricks/, particuoarly like this train station! 







Do you prefer technic or bricks? I have two or three technic and one big brick set, unfortunately I don't have any of the old sets I had years ago any more I'll see if I can find out where they went to...

I'm more a technic fan but bricks can be awesome if the set is big like this one for example

I love this set, £129.99 without discount codes on one site, theres so much detail and the building is full of cool pieces. I would buy this in a heartbeat if I still did lego. And those turquoise panels on the buildings are awesome.

@RedFive look what I have made

Using Lego Digital Designer you can make lego on your PC

The X-Wing Starfighter is a real Lego set, I used the instructions you can find online to create the set with the program

Many hours of work and this is the result

Look at that cute R2D2!

5900 pieces

Nothing completed because I make them and then I destroy them to make something else

5900 pieces

This must of taken centuries, i've used the LDD before and its like the slowest, clunkiest tool in existence. Impressive though.

I always wanted these Street sets when I was younger

 

among others, they were very expensive however but some of them look super nice. I love the kinda european street feel of them.

Yes, some hours, but you can copypaste some parts so you don't have to really place all the 5900 pieces, I did it while watching Battlestar Galactica on another monitor

I'm now working on one of these street sets and even with half the pieces of the Taj Mahal it takes more time because it's more various

Here we go, Downtown Diner! 2480 pieces
