I like the LEGO Winter range but somehow buying them seems like a waste of money as they would only be on display during Christmas. So instead, I decided to make my own using only bricks I already had. I decided to use half of my 376: Town House with Garden from 1978 and I […]
Looking for something else, I found a complete 894 Mobile Ground Tracking Station. Given how difficult it is to find those transparent shields intact, I jumped at the chance. It is not a toy I recognise from my childhood, but I think it is a fantastic little set with quite a lot of interactivity for […]
I didn’t play with the M:TRON theme as it came after I have put my bricks on the shelves. My era was really the early Space Classic. However, during my hobby of rebuilding my old LEGO sets, I came across M:TRON and was fascinated with both the limited amount of sets and the very bright […]
My aim is to keep my LEGO Classic Castle in one bookshelf. And with the addition on the 6073 Knight’s Castle, the shelf is getting a bit cramped. Previously, I already reduced the castle wall area of the Guarded Inn with one castle wall panel to give it more space in front. But while the […]
When I built my brother’s old LEGO Castle sets, I had quite a lot of wall elements left over. But it wasn’t until recently I realised there was a second Black Falcon castle, the Knight’s Castle from 1984. And apart from some 1×1 old gray bricks, some soldier bits and flags missing, I had all […]
This one has been on the drawing board pretty much since I started sorting through my old LEGO bricks 3 months ago. The first prototype can be seen in this landscape and the first floor was completed a month ago. However, this laboratory and hang-out space for astronauts is now finished. It’s been fun populating […]
When this is done, it will be my fourth MOC after the the Space Mine Entrance, the Black Monarch’s Ghost Tower and the Flight Tower. but I started planning this just after I made the Mine Entrance and, when finished, it will have two floors with the second floor, the recreational space for astronauts, to […]
I was super happy to get my hands on a 928 for my Space Classic set-up, but I think the tower is a bit small and insignificant. I get it that the focus is on the amazing space ship, but still… So I decided to create my own flight tower. It makes my third MOC […]
I recently bought a box of bricks and was able to put together the 131 Passenger Coach from 1972… this was dangerous as I actually have parts from the 7722 Steam Cargo Train (1985) in my old LEGO pile. After getting batteries, I nervously tried the engine and for the first time in this millennia, […]
So I bought a bag of mixed LEGO as I spotted a few Space Classic bits I needed for a project. When I got the box, it became clear there were more useful bits and the more I sorted the bricks, the more it became clear there were full sets, so I started putting them […]
When I sorted through my brother’s old LEGO Castle Classic sets, I hoped to find the 6034 Black Monarch’s Ghost set as I remember him having it. But unfortunately all the bits weren’t there, so I was very happy when I found a set online. But after setting it up, the little ghost shack sort […]
I actually thought I had built what I could out of my old LEGO, but I had the big shovel for the Space Dozer and the gray “post box” for the Surface Transport, so I tried to rebuild the two. And now I remember why I hate the Space Dozer! The big shovel keep falling […]
