Nice. I used to like building my own stuff from the huge tub of Lego that my kids had. I found it hugely therapeutic endlessly sifting through the thousands of pieces in the tub looking for that tiny bit that I needed. Maybe I should try something like you've just done? I need a hobby.

I'm currently in the process of putting this together:



I've probably not played with Lego in the best part of 20 years and had forgotten just how enjoyable it is, even just the simple sound of the pieces as you root around in the box looking for the bit you need.

The only annoying bit is the stickers that need to be added to certain bricks, as they're quite fiddly and a nightmare to try and get perfect. I'd hoped that, for the sort of money that these kits cost, the relevant bricks would have had the designs printed on to them.

My partner's son loves the Star Wars Lego. I was shocked when I saw the price of it though.

Yes. Love Lego.

During lockdown have made Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, the pirate ship (this is the best thing we’ve made so far), R2D2, the typewriter and Mandalorian Razor Crest.

Would like to have a go at the grand piano or the globe next.

Yes, it’s an expensive hobby but also a great investment. Researchers have listed Lego as one of the best financial investments for the future.

I just do it for the fun of it and in lockdown (we’re still in one in Toronto) it’s been a life saver.

That’s awesome! I loved Lego, but I’m so ancient all you got was bricks, little boards to attach them to and wheels with brick to pin them in to. Didn’t hold me back though. Lego is great.

A friend bought me a Revell 1/48 scale Fw190D-9. I haven’t made models for decades and I’m looking forward to giving it a go!

How many pieces? I will say as a parent, when my son was in the 5 - 9 age range had some great times with Lego. Pretty much every birthday and Xmas was Lego Lego Lego. I was a fan of the Lego City range, he was more into the Star Wars sets.

Now have large plastic boxes in storage rammed full of Lego. Thousands and thousands of pieces. Should probably sort it and sell it.

Never built anything with Lego as an adult but that set looks rather handsome! Must be a nice relaxing way to spend some time :)

Although if you're as clumsy and cack-handed as me, maybe not!

I've got a lot, I but mainly from the Architecture range where I have all the sets in it, but did recently get the Lego beatles set someone else has mentioned on this thread - so last two builds are these:





My eldest son loves Lego, has only just turned 5 but has built this set over the last couple of weeks - all by his self bar a bit of help getting the stickers on which is very impressive - well over 1,000 pieces

Yes, got plenty of it. Sydney Opera House & Tower Bridge are the biggest sets I've had so far. Aiming for Taj Mahal one day, when I can finally justify how much it costs!

Got this to do but awaiting my partner's family to come down as her little bro's at the Lego age (although as proven Lego age is a lifetime).
