    I know it's not a Technic model, but I wish the Porsche had some chassis detail.

    Finally finished the first four main Lego Hogwarts sets! Took a few days with the little one.

    IMG_20210826_125258_01.jpg

    Pretty awesome sets. I used this photo to reconstruct the castle as best I could, though its difficult with a large chunk of buildings still missing, mostly that Notre Dame like section on the right side there. I think I did the best I could while still maintaining accuracy and playability.

    The clock tower is suppose to face the other way, but thats ok, its not like this was ever meant to be even remotely accurate lol.

    Im gonna go shopping tonight, now that I have the majority of it built, maybe I can fill it in a bit with the other smaller sets or 20th anniverary sets!

    I'm guessing this is that botched "Tik Tok but LEGO series I was told about? It certainly smelled of "Fellow Kids" (one of the minifigs was flossing)

    A couple sets I'd like to pick up sometime. Still kinda iffy on the shuttle though.

    If you have any Lego Spongebob sets, they’d look great with that backdrop.

    Yes, Vidiyo has an app where you can make music videos and dance along with the minifigures. Reportedly, the app doesn’t work that well and is very glitchy.

    When you say flossing, do you mean dabbing or flossing their teeth?

    I was tempted to get that shuttle when I had more cash, but now it’s sold out near me at retail. (Ah well. There’s always online.) I’ve heard good things about it. Here’s a review.

    Probably one of the nicer GWP sets that Lego has done. The sailboat is gorgeous, with a very creative build. (The sails go together in a really unusual way for structural stability, and must have been tricky to make simple instructions for.) The cabin is even removable, with just enough space for a minifig to lie down inside. And the sand blue dolphins are a totally unnecessary but awesome bonus.

    The boat also stays together just fine if you remove it from the water base... but good luck getting it to stay upright, haha.

    I hope they make more small sets with this quality of design. (Usually we only get this kind of AFOL aesthetic/detail on larger D2C sets.)

    I would have liked a fabric sail, but that's just me.
