I picked up the classic beach streetcar this most recent 2x insider points week and put together this little diorama for it.

10/10 set, I would definitely recommend for city fans

Anyone know the difference between these 2 saxophones on pick a brick?

Made a MIG-29! Features include include moving airbrakes, rudders, elevators, flaps, ailerons, leading edge flaps, and functioning landing gear. It comes equipped with 1 drop tank, 2 R-27s and 4 R-73s. The cockpit fits a minifig and is detailed after the real cockpit.

I just disassembled my Scooby-Doo Mystery Mansion (big mistake) and I am flabbergasted at how many brown bricks just came apart like this. Not even sure what to do to supplement the pieces I'm missing now.

This is our family project, Bricks of Fate. Our goal is to recreate all 78 Tarot cards using real LEGO bricks.

No CGI, no AI, no 3D rendering. Just genuine LEGO bricks!

We build everything ourselves, photograph each scene, and end up with what might be the cutest Tarot deck ever :) And the best part is that all the original symbolism is beautifully preserved — sometimes it even becomes more obvious!

I think it’s turning out ridiculously cute! :)

Hi, Lego fans, my BF of 2 years (we are in our 30s, lol) is a huge LOTR and Lego fan, and his dream set is Rivendell. I’ve already bought it and I'm planning to give it to him for Christmas this year.

He brings up the set occasionally: he’s genuinely worried they’ll discontinue it before he can get it, he compares all the LOTR Lego sets, concluding that Rivendell is still the best etc. But every time, he ends up saying something like, "...but I’m not really planning on buying it because I have no place to display it."

I usually reply with something like, "Well, you could always buy a nice shelf or a cabinet to display it if you had it, right?" But when I say that, he seems almost... annoyed?

What’s going on here? Is he just a bit down about not being able to afford it right now, so he’s downplaying it so he doesn't feel as bad? I really don't want to ruin Christmas.

Also, just for context: he won't be getting much else from me. My usual Christmas budget for him is around $140, but I managed to snap this set up for $370 while it was on sale. I don’t live in the US, and $370 is roughly 16% of my monthly income - just to give you a feel for how much I spent. That said, I can totally afford it since my living expenses are very low and I have no debt. I definitely don't regret buying it!

But my other worry is that he might feel some type of way about me spending so much on him. I definitely don't want him to feel guilty, and I don't expect him to do the same for me, since we both usually stick to much smaller budgets. Won't that make gift-giving... unbalanced?

My other worry is that even though he really wants this set, maybe he’d prefer to buy it himself since it’s his dream set. Would you care if you got your dream set as a gift? Would it make a difference to you?

I just want him to have a good time and his experience to be nice.

So passes Denethor, son of Ecthelion. 🔥

Hope you like. Only the joker one still exists wish I had more pieces to keep them all !

Been wanting this set for monthsssss and I finally found it for 30$ off at fleet farm just in time for my birthday next week! soooo excited to build this and display it next to the tranquil garden set I already have!

edit: Thanks everyone for the happy birthday wishes!

Was inspired by @asortaokaybuilder 's adaptation and tried to give it a shot myself

Just wanted to show somebody my build and get their opinion on it I no it’s not the best and just want some feedback on it :D

My local Pick-a-brick broke out the orange mix for Halloween, so at first I made a small Pumpkin, and then I knocked this out over the weekend. It's a mix and match of different minifigures, both left over from sets and the Halloween themed build a fig station. Any constructive criticism is always welcome. 👍

Received an extra set of my Bricklink order. How do Lego usually handle this?

The third build in my low-cost tutorial series is now published. Tutorial #1 was about foliage and #2 about lake water. This one goes vertical: a rock cliff with a waterfall, a tribal guard on top and a pirate climbing up from below.

The main techniques are the rockwork and the waterfall. For the cliff, I use random gray slopes, plates and bricks, with a few flat areas left on purpose so the stone doesn’t become a single mass. The waterfall is stacked from translucent pieces and connected to a stream of blue tiles above and a pool below, so the water reads as one continuous flow. The booby trap is built into the rock, so it stays hidden until it’s triggered. The foliage on top reuses the layering approach from the first two tutorials.

Which technique would you want in Tutorial #4: buildings, trees, boats, something else?

Vintage baseplate and storage box, and the Ninjago set is sealed!
