brickshiftmama Posted December 22, 2014 Posted December 22, 2014 Just starting the Grand Emporium...I wish my sons were home to help me sort... Quote
exciter1 Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Just finished building the Spider-Copter Rescue w/ Green Goblin, a real nice set. My son has been asking for it for several months. I have to say, this Imaginext Battle Rover and Bat-Bot are super cool. Off to build the Chima: Mammoth Stomper next. 1 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Christmas morning recap: Built the Arctic Snowmobile I got for myself, and built the first part of the City Snow Plow. Helped my son build his Duplo Jake's Treasure Hunt and Duplo Batman Joker's Challenge. We've still got an Elsa's Castle and a Duplo Batman Batcave Adventure to build today. Quote
speedsausage Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Not lego but the wife threw down a serious thomas build this morning! 4 Quote

I like it FW is an interesting build. I found the build to be.... Different. Still not sure I like how it builds. Quote
ravenb99 Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 FW is an interesting build. I found the build to be.... Different. Still not sure I like how it builds. I wound up doing it and just finished , took about 2 hours. Think I am all tanned out from that build. I liked how it all slid together at the end. That was different. Agreed about not being sure what I thought of the overall build. I do like the way it comes together at the end though. I guess that's the neat feature with Architecture is they all seem to be a little different process. Now I'm gonna have to track down a Robie house. I passed on them from Von Maur when they were 25% off which was not a very smart choice. Quote
feed Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 So I picked up a mixed lot on Sunday and with the couple of days off work, I 4 Quote
Migration Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 After all the family time and the crazy drive (got to see a truck fire that turned a 5.5 hour drive into an 8 hour drive) I put together this little set. It's worth the price just for the letters and numbers. 3 Quote
seapotato Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Oh that looks pretty neat. Might get one for myself now lol Quote
waddamon Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Built the Black Seas Barracuda for the first time. The wife suprised me this Christmas. What a great build. I have waited 25 years to get this thing. I remember it on the tru lego wall. I never got it. Awesome set and I don't think any ships since come close. 1 Quote

I'd say both your wife the BSB are keepers. Quote
Michalwroc Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Building sea cow.. Half way there.. In the background santas workshop.. 1 Quote
redghostx Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 FW is an interesting build. I found the build to be.... Different. Still not sure I like how it builds. I built Fallingwater tonight and it took about 2hours. I can't really figure out what I built or if I liked building it and I don't know if I like the way it displays or not, perhaps I will know when I wake up. It is definitely a unique build. I also built Santa's Workshop and half of the Winter Village Market. I DO know that I like the workshop, it is excellent. Tomorrow is Red 5 or a bunch of trains. Santa knows what I like or at least what to leave on my porch from Target, Amazon, and eBay. Ex Astris, Scientia. Quote
Quacs Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Parisian Restaurant and Eiffel Tower for me - both awesome. PR is a classic - wouldn't be surprised to see this stick around awhile given how incredible the build is. Built Minecraft Ender Dragon and The Mine - also simply phenomenal sets. The Mine was way better than Ender Dragon, but diamond armor didn't disappoint. The boy has one more - the twin rotor helicopter Technic set...his first foray into Technic. Can't wait. Quote
exciter1 Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Built the Star Wars: V-19 Torrent Starfighter (7674) tonight. I really incredible build and very impressive ship once complete. The way they nailed the wing transfer is amazing. Lots of Technic in this one. I have something to share hopefully in the next few days I plan on building during break. I've purchased the parts over the past few weeks and I finally think I'm ready. Quote

I'm still back and forth about getting this because I have a lot of the clone wars sets and would consider myself quite the completionist and I really do love the different ships but when it's in landing mode it looks ugly as sin haha Quote
hepcatpunk Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Built Elsa's castle, the Juniors Princess Castle, Ariel's Amazing Treasures, and Big Zoo today....need to do a big boy build soon. Quote

California92563 Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 We have the Hasbro version as well and I like it too. Very nice! it's sad to think the clone wars era is dying and that this new wave could be the last in a very long time to include clone wars era sets 1 Quote
BuckeyeFanDan Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Built the Parisian Restaurant over a couple of days. Very enjoyable build. Lots of fantastic details! The only thing that would make it better is if it came with a light brick. Quote
JoshTX Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Installed the Ipad App and built several "resorts" with my daughter using the Lego Friends Fusion resort builder she got for Christmas. Awesome concept, my daughter wanted to play the game and build for hours. Quote

Michalwroc Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Finished sea cow.. great build, girlfriend says its the best build to date.. The other modular display she thinks its crap:/ 3 Quote
JoshTX Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Dude, nice out of the dark ages post! My son is interested in these but we don't have an iPad. Thank you. I had to step away for a while, primarily because college classes have gotten so intense I just haven't had the free time. But I'm off for two weeks vacation and I graduate with my bachelor's in April, so hopefully I can be on here more frequently. 6 Quote
