The LEGO Corner

[Ruby2511]

First of the sets built - I will say this - I think this is one of the most fun SW Lego builds I've had in ages - perfect size, build time (about an hour) - it looks great and the Darth Vader is hilarious… I would highly recommend getting this one.

Nice. I've got that landspeeder. Great little set.

Lego sale now on. Anybody going for anything?

 

[lejackal]

Wasn't planning on it, but have just panic checked the Home Alone price as I know the other half has just bought it for me (sshhh, it's a surprise)

 

[sith-smith]

That's a cracking set. Got it Christmas 2023. It's even better with the light/sound kit

Ordered Medieval Town Square - I love the castle stuff

Me too. Ordered mine first thing this morning!

Talking of medieval stuff, anyone get stuff from the bricklink designer programme?

I've always been tempted. The Forest Stronghold set looks more impressive to me than the Lion Knights' Castle…

 

[sith-smith]

I have both, and honestly think it was a way more enjoyable build, with some really cool features, including a mini version of the lion knights Castle

Another cool piece I got from the designer programme. Think this'll be my Christmas build

Picked up a Forest Stronghold. Lovely set. Now what to do about the Lion Knights castle

 

[sith-smith]

Have both.

Bought this today from local Air Ambulance, couldn't resist for a fiver, the box is toast, but not bothered about that, it's sealed and complete and should display well.

 

[sith-smith]

That's a good find!

Another recent medieval set from Bricklink I managed to get

That is a cool set

And here it is built
It was a nice build - very modular in nature and pretty easy in terms of technical construction - nothing too funky. The figures are nice and there are a tone of play features which are great - sadly there are also a tone of stickers - less great but maybe to be expected….

If you can I would highly recommend the set - it is a significant improvement on the last Death Star and the flat back (which had some features on it) means shelf display is a lot easier than dealing with a sphere.

That looks awesome

The misses bought me this beauty for my upcoming birthday, was a great price in Smyths

This set from Star Trek was launched today, anyone going for this?
I'm out of Lego now for good, but even if I was I think this would have been an easy pass.
There just doesn't seem to be enough play features for me, as well as being all rather grey.
Mind you there are 9 mini figures that will soon be very sort after.

Seen it, looks an impressive set, but I'm not a trekkie fan

 

[sith-smith]

I like it, I like Star Trek, but not enough to think about buying it.

 

[monkey_roo]

Likewise - It looks nice and the figures look great - but I will pass as well - besides you just know this is the first of what will become a sizeable line over time, so no more rabbit holes.

Also on the rumour front - the next SW UCS could be a Mando N1 Starfighter.......

Now I would be up for the N1, beautiful looking ship

I might be tempted by a Klingon bird of Prey if they do one
