Kind of begs the question, how would we sell either the Star Bricks U-Project or TS-Project? They're so hard to come by and unique. Tough to price out and probably a small target market. wow...didn't know it jumped up so much...it was lavishing around $200 for years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read in European forums how peeps have sold theirs on Ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she's killing your stash, let her build the Colosseum, she'll never want to build another set. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoWalker4 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I built this using the head from the Stormtrooper BrickHeadz set (set 41620) and the body from the Stormtrooper Mech (set 75370). The result was better than I expected. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pseudoty Posted March 10 Popular Post Share Posted March 10 (edited) Finally finished the Titanic just over 2 months off and on while building other sets in between to break up some of the monotony. No more missing pieces, so not bad only 2 that were wrongly swapped at the factory and replaced, out of over 9K elements. Although I did have a damaged 2x12 white plate that I replaced from my own inventory 46 numbered bags most with 2 and some with 3 bags per number. Four almost identical smoke stack sections with 7 bags each so 28 of the 46 bags are repetitive, and the portholes are brutal. When you finish the last smoke stack section for the rear of the ship which is the beginning of box 3 there is a notation in the instructions: “Stern & Well deck: the final section is the most complicated” and this is where the build really excels and probably why most have such good impressions of the overall build of the set. It is so good that it makes you forget about the misery you just went through. If you are doing a family build just grab box 3 as you will get the full effect of building the entire ship and feel sorry for whomever gets box 2. My ratings for this set which I purchased prior to the price increase: Build 8 Play 2 Display 9 Value 8 Edited March 10 by Pseudoty 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Pseudoty Posted March 21 Popular Post Share Posted March 21 Snow Whites Cottage. This one started off just like Winnie the Pooh lots of very small specialized elements to build up the structure, and piece count, instead of classic Lego bricks. Look at all the extra pieces. I did not apply the stickers to the beds and the piano but might go back and add them although not really necessary. I was not looking forward to the roof but it actually was an excellent build and really made the set more enjoyable. The Dwarfs all have 2 sided facial expressions but besides from Dopey’s molded ears are all rather generic with no arm or leg printing but perhaps accurate to the source. They should have included the parts necessary for them to sit at the table like they did in Rivendell. I would think there are lots of play opportunities in this set but it is very cramped. The figs and Disney tax make this set overpriced by $40 compared to the Blacksmith and A frame both larger and fully enclosed with similar piece counts. Build 8 Play 8 if you have tiny hands Display 7 Value 6 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Wish the Blacksmith was more to scale. It’s a nice looking display but doesn’t fit well with all the recent Medieval era sets Lego is releasing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudoty Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) Insect Collection great set with no stickers, excellent prints, and unique part usage, look at the Sand Green Pistol. If you can find this for 20% off or more it is a definite pickup and has a good cross-over with the Botanical sets. The flower build at the base of the butterfly is top notch. 1111 pieces but a lot of them go to the stands and displays not the actual insects. You can easily remove the insects from the stands if you wanted to play with them. The building app now gives you stats.

Pseudoty Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 This was a little tricky and unstable for such a small set but comes together nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudoty Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 GF built the Globe. She said: “The structure inside is amazing and building the hemispheres was very satisfying to me but it is repetitive and the gaps make the set look unfinished, also they should have included a part to cover the exposed technic beam at the bottom of the globe like they did for the top”. We had to add a few spare pieces on to cover it. This is a great display piece but I can’t see many people buying it in 2 to 3 years for $400 when they can just get a real globe for their home or office. Up next is the Typewriter which looks to be the most complex technic build ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudoty Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) She can really knock these sets out. This was another Amazon return and this seems to be an issue with this set, open box returns, as most people don’t realize how much technic is in this set until they open it as it is all hidden inside. This set is one of the best engineered Lego sets I have ever seen but I have never built any of those technic cranes or super cars. Not sure how many people will pay over $400 for this one once it is gone but it sure looks great in sand green. We have a 1/2 Marathon tomorrow so not sure what is up next.
