What LEGO set did you build today?

This thing is huge, sits on 4 baseplates at almost 4 feet tall.

and yeah, felt pretty fragile during building it, but then you add couple pieces and the whole thing feels solid p...so far. At this point it's little over 8" only.

Hopefully I can find my original posts to upload again.  All forum pics were lost two major forum upgrades ago.

Finished! It's missing about 30 pieces that will be easy and cheap to buy from BL.

I purchased it couple weeks ago for $240 on CL thanks to a tip from @terrymc4677

Will sell on eBay for $600-700.

Nice shot.

Finished the skyline series. Venice is the weakest build and Chicago is just ugly. Waiting on Philly for next year. 

[micbelt]

I guess I am in the minority as I like the Chicago skyline set.

Snagged this set off of eBay last week and built it today! The Ferrari wheelccover as the rear prop is cool. Fun build and a great price with box, instructions, and all parts.

I finally got around to building my used 10178 Motorized AT- AT purchased 2 years ago. I'll post more about it in the 10178 topic.

In the meantime, here is the finished build compared to what I think is the best AT- AT based on current value, 8017 from 2010. 8017 gives you a lot bang for the buck compared to the 75055 one.

Here's a comparison pic of 10178 and 8012. 10178 is about 1 inch higher. Getting a apples to apples height (all 4 legs straight) comparison is tough w/ o taking apart the 10178. Trust me, 10178 is taller.

I'm in the process of building 10215 Obi-Wan's Starfighter. I bought it new/sealed but in a severely damaged box. Little did I know that there was bad water/humidity damage to instructions and some pretty bad wear to stickers.

Any tips on how to assist the stickers in sticking to the set? Are there any good pastes or glues that won't leave crazy residue or damage to the Lego over time? It's only a couple of stickers right now that need assistance but I don't know if it'll get worse over time

[Guest brickcrazyhouse]

I would probably just use masking tape. Any glue would have to leave some kind a residue. But then again I really hate stickers so I would probably just not put them on

If they are cheap, I would buy a new sticker sheet and remove the old stickers and clean the bricks and reapply.

not cheap!

Finished! This was a quick and relatively inexpensive way to pad my UCS collection ($110 + shipping).

Wasn't sure what size to expect but it's a decent size and also narrow enough to store once I bust out the bigger UCS sets

Cheating again with another sizable Halo Pelican Gunship. Fun build and it took a few nights.

It's okay you're not alone

Last night I decided to dig this one out of my personal vault...

Great set, such a shame Lego didn't put the same amount of effort in the LOTR theme.

[Alpinemaps]

My son and I built 75094 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium over the last few days. I'd say it was a 50/50 effort.



Wow. What an impressive set! I'll always be bummed that I missed out on the UCS version. This is a great set though. Definitely a winner.

Gorgeous creation by Lox Lego.  The creation of curves and style used worked quite well for this car.  If you would like more info see the home page for this creation: Hennessey Venom GT

 

In its new garage spot with some of the other super cars.  Fits right in!

[kd123]

That's one awesome collection of super cars!

2 for 2 on The LEGO Batman Movie sets. This thing is awesome and I think there are a few new elements in here. Paid RRP this time, which pains me, but I really wanted this set. Even bought 2.

[ponderingzissou]

Ecto- 1&2 #75828. Fun build. Much longer car than I expected. Love the opening doors. 

Starting Batcave Break-In (70909) now.

Finished off the last few bags of 10227 UCS B-Wing, then blasted through 75048 Phantom during an episode of Rebels.

Those fenders really make the car stand out!

This is what I been working on this week.... great builds !!  6 more to go !

[HandyHand]

I recently built the new 75153 AT-ST Walker, and set it up in my display cabinet next to the 75094 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium:

Of course, the minifigs are not from the same movie, but the models themselves are.  

My other recent build was the new 75172 Y-Wing:

I love the model and am happy to have added it to my collection.
