What LEGO set did you build today?

Finished most of the Winter Village theme today with the Bakery and the Market sets.  The design of the Market carousel is awesome and the building technique to make the horses rock is new to me.  It does feel small for a $100 set but I'm happy to have it.  I still need to find room for the smaller bits and pieces - I wish Lego had put those parts into making each building a little bigger and more detailed.  Closer to the holidays I am going to put these down on some gray baseplates and add some white bricks but for now these are aligned in my closet.

Just finished LEGO First Order Troop Transport and I must say that though I have not been overly thrilled by this set at first and bought it for the minifigs, that the build is suprisingly enjoyable!

I'm also very happy with the result. Especially the front door mechanism is nice.

The minifigs are neat, even though I don't like the resistence fighters too much when it comes to the design. But okay... they are normal people... I get it.

All in all it's a solid pretty enjoyable build that comes with some useful parts for MOCing.

I built the SD Mystery Mansion to add to my Halloween display. Lots of fun, loving care from the designers here--making sure to include a kitchen for Scooby and Shaggy is a plus. My one gripe: decals. The flippin' numbers on the clock face are decals! Arrrgh. 

Me: All my life, decals have been my nemesis.

Wife: (I'm going to post that on Facebook.)

I got the last few pieces I needed for the 5004590 Bat-pod and built it last night.  It is such an awesome set and now I need to crack open one of my Tumblers to go along side of it.

and to post pics. please

Earlier this week it was shot/vacinne day for my son at the doctors, so my wife bribed him with The First Night (21115).  He is obsessed with Minecraft.  He almost completely abandoned LEGO over it.  Is it possible to go into the Dark Ages at age 5?  If it weren't for the Minecraft sets, he probably would have already.

The build was pretty fragile.  More fragile than any other set I constructed.  But when the finishing touches came into place on the roof perimeter, the set was pretty sturdy.  I like the look and a few of the details, especially on the pig pen gate and fence.  I also like the detachable roof and dark grey bricks.  If you are a Minecraft fan, this is a fun set to add to the collection.  

This reminds me of the Hobbit Unexepected Gathering.  I sold/traded all of mine before building one.  I kind of regret that now :(
