Definitely passing on that for $200. Way too small interiors. I'd rather save towards assembly Square if I'm already in for that much

200 is a lot this is true. And the interiors may be small. But I, for one, literally never open my modulars after building them, so the facade is the only important aspect. It’s a solid exterior, so we will see...

Not a huge fan of the vet on a second floor. Might just turn that into another apartment, and put the vet in a different building. https://brickset.com/article/40442/review-10264-corner-garage Brickset guy got an early copy and built and reviewed it if you want more interior shots. Also the colors pop more in his photos I feel. Scipiotik fucked around with this message at 17:09 on Dec 3, 2018 |

Despite what Brickset say in their review, that building is recognisably based on a real one in West London (or the style of same). It's a nice touch, and I'll be grabbing this one happily.

yeah, it's vanishingly rare for gas stations in america to have anything a second or third floor. Even in crowded cities they usually are just like in the suburbs.

Decided to use my laser cutter to make Tom Alphin's Lego Technic Ruler and Sorting Tool: Took me two attempts to get it right but I think it turned out awesome.   Tom's design can be found here: http://tomalphin.com/2014/02/lego-ruler-and-sorting-tool.html

Good thing he included the 2 stud beam and 0° angles. Wouldn't want to screw up and grab the wrong part. I kid, I kid. that's pretty neat.

The modular garage is theoretically great. It meshes well with my classic cars, the colors are great, and I love the rolling door and lift functions. It just doesn't really excite me in the way that past modulars have. I'm definitely not getting that "gotta have it" feeling like I did with Parisian and Assembly.

Just bought the Brickheadz Little Mermaid, and for whatever reason the printed "bra" piece doesn't really work well to me. Does anyone have any part recommendations for a brick-built alternative way to make that seashell bra?

I real like the garage, it's a good addition to the American side of the street (aka Hill Valley circa 1955)

I don't want modulars. I don't have room for modulars. I love the 50s aesthetic they're going for.

I'm on a workation to London and last night they had a show called Lego Masters or something. They made some cool stuff, but they missed their chance to call it The Great British Brick Off. They even used some of the same music.

Am I crazy or does this brown stud just sit on top of the mug? The actual stud bit is too skinny for the mug. (Day 6 of the City Advent Calendar)

Is that reality show really entertaining? I hear people saying their whole family enjoyed it, young and old, so I assume that means if I don’t care about reality tv format, I might still enjoy it, as a child might.

I saw the mini bundle speed champions is supposed to retail for $50 and now I'm not interested it until it firesales because no one is going to buy it for the mini when it should have been a standalone $15 set at most.

Yep, $50 is what it looks like:  This certainly puts it the "wait for sale" category for me too since it just doesn't make sense to pay that kind of price (and for me even more, being in Europe) for a set where I only care about one small(ish) part of it. That JCW Buggy is butt-ugly, for real. ivantod fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Dec 6, 2018 |
