Very tempting. Already on SD so might not last long. Only 423 left
Built the new Creator 3-in-1 astronaut. It ended up being slightly bigger than I thought it'd be and I didn't know it was designed to house a minifigure in the helmet. Picture next to Saturn V for scale with some of my space stuff.
I spent a couple hours fine tuning Rivendell yesterday, applied stickers, placed minifigures and added a few parts I ordered with many more to go, but need to find a better way to display it. It would look great on my dresser with the mirror behind it but goes against the no Lego in the bedroom rule
ETA: Oh, and I hung Starry Night
You are right. We are always so busy spending money on sets, we forget they are supposed to be built. I really think the "What LEGO set did you buy today?" thread has very useful information on a daily basis. I think this thread will offer similar insights to different sets that might not be apparent by looking at a box. I really want people to share their opinions on all sorts of sets and hope this leads to a quality library of LEGO SET REVIEWS.
Went on a recent building binge with my son, and was able to do some reviews on them. We built
Jabba's Palace and Rancor Pit
Goblin King Battle
Mirkwood Spiders
Bag End
He took it upon himself to find Bespin Planet set and build the Twin Pod Cloud Car.
It had been a long time since I had opened a set for building that wasn't bought with the sole intention of being built since it was a present to him. I am still wanting to build one of my Town Hall's to add to the city, but have nowhere to put it right now since our new place is small on display space.
