The primary & tertiary Aquaman models are good in my opinion while all of the Terror Dog's are nicely wicked. I like the idea behind the twin-headed Destroyer (although it could possibly benefit being 'beefed up' with some more pieces) as it reminds me of the mythological Orthrus from Greek lore.

The second Aquaman model looks a little bit weird but I guess they always have to use all the bricks and pieces for each model.

My favourite Aquaman model is the Trident of Fire due to its flexible tail. From the Terror Dog variants the regular Terror Dog has the advantage of not needing a baseplate/toytag to stand on which increases its uses outside the game.

Built 10213 Shuttle Adventure.  Excellent looking display piece but a little delicate putting and keeping some parts together.  Stoked I was able to get this and add to the collection.

Nice set!! I can't say I was aware of it's size... would love to have it...:)

3 recent builds.

4768 - Durmstrang ship - I picked this up in a bulk bin and I am surprised at how nice it looks.

On Friday and Saturday, I built the New York City skyline and my fiancee built the Wall-E set.  New York City is well designed, particularly the Chrysler building.

And Wall-E is already famous on the forum...  go and get one to build and some to hold.

Today I built all six possible builds from LEGO Dimensions level pack 71235 (Midway Arcade). The Arcade Machine is my absolute favourite model from this level pack. For me it's the main draw besides the gamer minifigure. This was one of the rare instances where I made a first-day purchase as I was eagerly awaiting its release since seeing the first pictures of it.

The first 3 models are Arcade Machine, 8-Bit Shooter and The Pixelator (bottom left). The Pixelator and Arcade Machine are doable without using instructions.

The other three models are G-6155 Spy Hunter, The Interdiver and Aerial Spyhunter (from top to bottom). Here the main model is the best one, too.

I totally dig the arcade cabinet LEGO came up with and think the colors used stand out nicely even when the original Defender was simply black (aside from the prints).

For the size, they matched the marque art quite well.

I also built the arcade pack. The one thing that struck me was the little defender game has lovely printed pieces but big $200 sets have a bunch of stickers :mda:

$200 sets sell themselves now...

I'm just going to say it - I want one of my own. I was having fun trying to make it hit the ceiling in our entryway (which is two stories).

Cool little set. I am a bit surprised it has not performed better. 

It only just sold out at TRU over the weekend and still floats around at MSRP or below from Amazon, etc. I think it's time will come.

My daughter and I finished up the Friends Jungle Rescue Base that we picked up for $15 at Wal Mart. I have to say...it was a cool little set with the zip line, animals, and details in the cabin. Best Friends set we've built...but she hasn't done the mall or hotel yet.

Agree. Wouldn't pay retail, but one of best $15 spent on Lego for playability

My daughter (while being sick) has been working on our $15 jungle rescue base as well. The selection of unique animals is pretty good, with the panda, the chameleon, the bird (a blue parrot?) and the monkey.

I built the TFA Battle On Takodana set and can say I'm really happy I didn't pay RRP for it.  It's definitely not worth £50, not great even at £30 so it's not one I'll be investing in.
