What LEGO set did you build today?

Additional photos and thoughts:  Wonderful set but not quite Rivendell in terms of aesthetics and build.  Solid 9.5 overall.  It’s a shame that the Fell Beast wasn’t included to begin with.  Based on the interior art, I suspect it was but the bean counters came in at the 11th hour and changed that.

Brick built Yoshi from Brick Journal, Issue 53, October 2018.  Fortunately, I was able to BrickLink it all from one store.  The issue had many Pokeman and Nintendo builds.

Would you mind linking instructions for this. My son would love to build it.

Sorry, last set of pictures. I got the lighting just right to finally appreciate the aesthetic decision they made to go with reddish brown. It really does glow if you get the lighting just right which is a blend of blue and red LEDs. Also a side by side with Rivendell.

Finished up my Medieval Lego phase with the Lion Knight castle, Town Square and a classic: The Sea Serpent. All great sets though the Town Square was a step down from the castle in terms of build and overall quality.

Completed the Disney Castle.  One of those sets that I waited too long to purchase but was able to acquire with some help from a new friend.  Enjoyed the build with the subtle touches to movies, characters from long ago.

Built the 75387 Boarding the Tantive IV.  Great build, I like how it turned out and the included minifigures are solid choices.  Lego did an awesome job recreating the iconic scene from both Episode IV (A New Hope) and Rogue One.

Alternate build of the Pirate Snub Fighter to the Pirate Fang Fighter using Rebrickable instructions.  

Building tip: if building your own display stand, remove the  Dark Tan Plate, Modified 2 x 2 with Groove and 1 Stud in Center (Jumper) piece on the bottom of the fighter and replace it with two 2 x 6 plates for added stability (some bottom pieces came apart when I pushed a little when adding the stand).
