I'm an F-body partisan, but I'll be getting that mustang on day one. It's too iconic not to.

Also love the snap-on mods that don't require disassembly to change up the look. :toot:

That mustang looks sick, the alternate mode is rad. I don't know which I'll want to display it in.

But oh god please tell me that white stripe on the side that spans 8 pieces is printed and not stickers. And I think the blue bit that divides the white is certainly a sticker.

The set itself hasn’t been confirmed, but the minifig leaked a few weeks back and we know they’re making several Resistance sets.

edit: dropped to $6 for the C10/tiny house and $4 for other builds. I think that's more reasonable. What do you think?

Start out at $15 or so for an instruction and see if it sells, then adjust the price accordingly and/or put the others out at a lower price from the get go

That stuff is awesome, so is this.

Lego Hidden Side. Kinda like monster hunters it seems. Link below is a school, and 129.99. Also a graveyard, train and other sets.

Alright, yes, tentacles. Also that hoodie/baseball hat combo on the minifig. Monsters and graveyards and varsity jackets make this very Buffy-looking.

Also it links to some app and has some sort of mystery game associated with it. My 3 month old definitely needs all these sets for the future. I also saw a school bus, which is nice.

Watching a build video for a robot and it looks like someone is using a part similar to this:

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalo...%20Brick%5D#T=C

But has the rotational sockets on BOTH sides. So:

Socket 2x2 brick Socket

Anyone know what part that is?? I couldn't find it on Bricklink. (but got close with that link)

Apparently it's a ladder holder. I actually had no idea what it was until I looked the part number up just now haha. Found it in a bucket of loose Legos I got from the thrift store. pretty nice part for texture though. Wish I had more of them.

Lego are such trolls, they must know that people want a version of the Jurassic Park Jeep and they make a strange transformer Dino thing with the jeep colours.

I think it's coming, they'll probably release all of these, then release the D2C which will have a jeep in it just to soak all of the money from people.

Agreed, the D2C set must surely be the visitors center. As I am not too into Jurassic Park, I am slightly hoping that its the one from Jurassic World or something and then observing the rage from a distance.

What's the best way to clean off accumulated dust/other particulates from Lego that have been on open display for a while? I've tried baby wipes, but they leave smudges/smears not unlike on glass surfaces. Not a problem in some cases, but really stands on when you have large areas of a single color.

Take it apart, wash the bricks, then remake it.

If you hate building LEGO though, a toothbrush and lots of water will clean too.

Big paint brush with soft but straight bristles. After that give it a quick blast of canned air for good measure.
