From@MusiKyle, I bought all the parts of a second Pirate Roller Coaster (he kept the tracks). Win-win for both of us - he wanted another set of tracks; I wanted everything but the tracks. So he cracked one open for the both of us. So thanks for a smooth and quick transaction. I’m looking forward to building out my pirate coaster some more. And I look forward to seeing what he does with that extra track.

I built an MOC I designed a few years back, but just never got around to doing. I call it the Winter River. It is built on a MILS plate design. I have a second plate that will go in front of it, called Winter Lake. It will be a frozen pond for ice skating and hockey. Both of these will be for the Winter Village. I finally will start having some plates for the builds to live on. The pics show the different stages - first pics show the “before” the frozen river is added. Next shows the frozen river. And finally, the stone bridge across the river.

Saw a used 10262 James Bond DB5 set for $100. Decided to take a chance on it. Pretty decent build. Very happy with it. the build wasn’t overly repetitive which is nice. Was also surprised how strong the build it especially w/ the doors. I can hold the car up by a door. Great design.

I picked up a bulk lot of Harry Potter sets - including 10217 - so this was my Sunday build. I love this set, always a pleasure to build. This one is in very nice condition too.

Long-time fans of the LEGO Architecture series are probably familiar with Adam Reed Tucker, since he founded the LEGO Architecture series in 2007 in partnership with The LEGO Group. Adam designed 16 sets in the LEGO Architecture series, and helped write the book LEGO Architecture: The Visual Guide. I recently noticed (on the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation's website) that Adam designed three nice looking models based on iconic Frank Lloyd Wright buildings which have not been included in the LEGO Architecture series yet... Martin House (1904, Buffalo, NY), 1961 pieces. Taliesin West (1937, Scottsdale, AZ), 1763 pieces. Unity Temple (1908, Oak Park, IL), 912 pieces. All three models are designed using common LEGO Elements, so you can try to re-create them from the photos if you like. I particularly like the model of Taliesin West, with it's angular roof-line of alternating white and dark red stripes. In full disclosure: All three models are available for sale through his new company The Atom Brick, but the kits do not include LEGO Bricks. Instead, they come with parts supplied by LOZ, which are 3/4 the size of LEGO bricks, but have the same shapes and proportions. Because I love seeing beautiful Architecture models, I reached out to Adam to learn a lot more about the models, his passion for Architecture, and his decision to create a new company in order to create these sets. I interviewed Adam and wrote an article about these models on my website—It's an interesting read for anyone who loves the LEGO Architecture series like I do! Sincerely, —Tom Alphin LINK TO ARTICLE: brickarchitect.com/2020/adam-reed-tucker-the-atom-brick/ P.S. I definitely have mixed feelings that these nice looking models aren't available with LEGO Bricks. What do you think of the models?

500 USD FBA is probably 9 times what these guys were buying them for 4 years ago. That it has withstoos 75189 in itself is amazing.

You my guy have a lot of endurance.

I really enjoy it, especially going back and watching eps here and there. I went back recently and watched all of the dark saber eps in Clone Wars and Rebels. Seasons 4-6 are pretty solid all the way through.

Totally forgot I had already built the pond! So here’s a pic of the two of them together.

I have a couple sealed 75054, what to do, what to do.

40198 Lego LUDO Game This came with a dark gray 32x32 baseplate that you frame out as shown in the instructions in the picture and there are 4 separate 16x16 plate builds that come together to form the game board. The spinner is printed which was cool to see. The spinner spins very nicely when flicked (between 4 - 6 rotations on a decent flick). Not sure what else the 1-6 circle plate would be good for in a MOC. Wheel of fortune MOC? Regarding minifigures, 16 are included. The pants/legs were identical within each color group. Each group had two male, two female. Red has no alternate faces. Blue the female has alternate. Yellow the female has alternate. Green both male and female have alternates. The green male alternate is a "I'm going to puke" face (fat cheeks) which is amusement park-ready but not sure it fits in this game (unless he's been riding the spinner lately, then I get it). My daughter and I now call this the Lego Seasons game, which sound much more fun than Ludo. I'm not familiar with Ludo but the setup and rules remind me of Parcheesi. The rules are also similar to games like Sorry, Trouble, etc. Get a number to go out of your color zone (six), move around the board back to your safe zone. First to get all minifigs back safe wins. We havent played it yet but will later today. Overall decent value for the $27.99 sale price given 16 minifigs, a dark gray 32 x 32 baseplate, 4 of 16x16 plates, and a cool spinner.

As Jeff stated in another thread, there was a problem with the servers. He hired a new server company and is transferring all the information to faster and more reliable servers. All of the Brickfolio information is safe and the site will be back to normal in a few days. It takes time to transfer all of this information and Jeff has his real job to deal with as well. Sorry for the inconvenience...

here's the explanation

Finally get to be 'that guy' to post a great find! (from Facebook Marketplace last night). 20+ Star Wars sets including UCS Imperial Star Destroyer 10030, Rebel Blockade Runner 10019, Death Star II 10143, At-At 4483, Republic Gunship 7163, Sandcrawler 10144, Jango Fett's Slave 7153, Clone Turbo Tank 7261, and several other cool sets. All Mini-figures and instructions included, but no boxes. Paid $300. Last year I bought zero Lego sets of off FB and in 2020 I already have this and a UCS Falcon under my belt. Ha!

Not so much as what I built today but what I will be building. I got a call from my local Lego store manager saying a lady dropped off a big box of old Lego that she wanted to recycle. Luckily the manager saw a few old modulars on there and thought to call me. She asked if I wanted to come pick up the box and sent me a pic. First thing I saw were parts to the Grand Emporium and A Cafe Corner. I couldn't get to the store fast enough. I brought the box home and after starting to dig through it I saw all the parts to Market street inside. Going to be a fun weekend.
