The Official LEGO Thread

I LOVE Lego. Proper AFOL here. Sadly, no money to buy it for myself, especially with the building project coming up. I rather buy some smaller sets for my son. Once I’m rolling in dough I’m getting some 18+ sets to adorn my new bookshelf.

Does the “A” stand for adult or ABSOLUTE? :smiley:

Absurd in my case…

I am an ASOL* too.

And I think I just figured out a topic to create for this week…

Well scratch that… it’s already been done. One of the earliest MEW topics, created back in '17 by Master AFOL @FarligOpptreden.

The Official LEGO Thread - Off Topic - Most Epic Win

Will move these posts there…

Such a pity these kind of promotions don’t apply to console editions too.

Yeah I saw that, but we have all the games in that bundle except 2. A pity it didn’t come earlier, as I bought a bunch over the past 2 months.

I couldn’t resist it yesterday, especially when marked down 15%. Would make a great showpiece on my shelf!

They really have come a long way from being play sets, to now being show pieces. Thankfully I kept all my Lego, albeit without any instructions and probably missing pieces. Regardless, the kids make their own fun with it all.

Managed to build around 75% of the model while watching 2 episodes of Lego Masters. Just had to stay in the mood!

Very nice. I also looked at that one recently but then I ended up spending my money on other stuff ( games).

Definitely want to get myself some LEGO sets at some point. I had ZERO LEGO growing up as a kid and I bought my nephew a Mario LEGO set for his birthday and had a blast building it with him.

I’m on the LEGO SA marketing list. Every day I get teased and tempted. Every day I cry a little inside because I want it all.

Todays tease:

Why?

Oh. I understand now.

There are much better Lego Star Wars sets available in the UCS range - Millennium Falcon, Star Destroyer, A-Wing, AT-AT… The Landspeeder doesn’t really appeal to me, to be honest. Then again, sets like the MF are going for R16k…

Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton office in LEGO is solid!*

Recreate an American workplace with this collectible LEGO® Ideas display model (21336) inspired by hit mockumentary The Office. Build familiar areas of Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton office with LEGO bricks, including boss Michael Scott’s office (which slides out for display on its own), the conference room and much more.

Great gift idea for fans of The Office. The set includes 15 LEGO minifigures, including Michael Scott, Dwight Schrute, Jim Halpert, and Pam Beesly.

Pre-orders now for mid-November delivery:
