Lego has changed so much over the years and the possibilities are endless as to what you can create…. With the help of a box or bricks and some instructions… or maybe you’re just super creative!
I love building Lego, it’s therapeutic and relaxing. And there is always a wow at the end as I finally complete a set.
who else enjoys it? What have you built?
I hope this space inspires others to give it a go!

Careful online!!! @rav3n. You won’t walk away with just one!!
I’ve got all the botanicals and fauna, well the ones since I started doing it. I order the transformers for my brother. I do like the animal ones but there isn’t really anything that I collect. Just what ever I see that I want. I have a wish list in the Lego store and it’s $4500 worth! I just add to it when I see new ones I want and just shop from my work sh list.

I just had a look. @Bow There isn’t too much I want this time but there is a couple, chucked ‘em in my wish list. I have to get the transformer for my brother for Christmas though. I don’t go many places that sell Lego so most of it’s online but if I do see stuff then I’ll grab it.

@rav3n There is only one store fairly close to me that sells Lego, I don’t buy from them though unless I have no other options. My first step is always the Lego website. If what I’m wanting isn’t available from Lego direct my next step is online. I’ve managed to purchase items that way that are no longer available anywhere else.
I started with the modular shops and buildings that was prior to Lego releasing The Titanic which I knew I had to have, regardless of the fact I had no idea where I was going to put it 😂. Earlier this year I bought 2 other ships that are currently standing on a table in my garage as, until I get my act together and have some floating shelves built, I have nowhere to display them.
looking through all the new sets that have just been released I could easily spend a lot of 💰💵 if I buy what I like. So much for supposedly saving 💰and reducing the amount of things I’ve got
@Captain24 some of the 3in1 creator wild animal sets look soooo nice. So tempting. Lego in front of books on bookcases … mmm, maybe not

@Former-Member @Bow the botanical ones are soooo pretty! my sister wants the orchid one so i might buy that for her birthday. the transformer one sounds really cool. i'm thinking i might try to buy from FB marketplace next time to save some money
@Former-Member ooo i'd love to see what those ship lego sets look like!
i ended up buying 3 more 'harry potter themed' sets 😅 i did one of them on the weekend, it was the phoenix one. i was so tempted to do another one but i'm trying to pace myself hehe.

@rav3n There is an amazing collection of ‘brick building’ sets on places like Temu, shein and aliexpress. I have maybe half a dozen Alice in wonderland sets that are so pretty!

Looking at the new release sets of Lego website I could quite easily run up approx $3,000 @rav3n
One set cost me $1,000, that has approx 9,000 pieces though and is 135cm (54 inch) long Titanic.
Ive not heard of shein or aliexpress @Bow
@couple more places to look. 😻
@rav3n the boats are an American style paddle steamer and The Endurance. Bought The Titanic and The Endurance due to the historical connection.
