What LEGO set did you build today?

I love Assembly Square. It’s almost underrated. Jamie Berard did an amazing job putting so much detail into it. At $279 it’s a steal compared to the current $200 modulars.

Not to be the contrarian, the only thing I did not like about Assembly Square is the sorting of pieces. I posted this when I built it when it first came out that they should have had numbered bags 1-20 and for those that want a more challenging experience go ahead and open them all. Agreed that Jamie did an amazing job with it, but I still don’t want a GWP that has his name on it ;) 

OBTW I think building that UCS AT-AT has been very therapeutic for you. Keep up the good work!

Tell me about it. 1-6 for that size of a set was a bit ridiculous. Also led to more pieces getting covered in dust since I left it out for weeks at a time between building sessions, lol.

I don’t remember it being too much of a chore until bag 6. Medieval Market Village had 1600 pieces and no numbered bags. That was the second set I built as a AFOL and it was not fun sorting all the tiny pieces.

Yeah, I may complain, but there is no valid comparison to the sets without numbered bags. I remember 10231 Shuttle Expedition being a bit fun in terms of sorting.

Didn't Tower Bridge have no numbered bags? I remember having thousands of pieces on my kitchen table for days over the holidays in 2010.

This is indeed correct. My sister and I built this over a weekend once though. Excellent team building set as you can each do a tower and not constantly get in each other’s way.
