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 […]
I am setting up two shelves of LEGO Space Classic and I have a few sets that include white wings etc, but I don’t know, I sort of decided I want to keep it all blue, old gray and trans yellow like the very first sets. So I have recoloured a couple of the sets […]
My plan was to rebuilt what I could from my siblings’ and my old LEGO. And I focused on the themes I knew each of us played with as kids: My Sister’s Fabuland My brother’s Castle Classic My own Space Classic sets… that has been boosted by both new sets I’ve bought and some MOCs. […]
I’ve made a short video of my LEGO space classic landscape as I have split it over two shelves, one for the spaceships and one for the mining crew. To complete the set I’ve bought a 928, the spaceship I didn’t get as a kid. Most of the sets are as original, but there are […]
So… this might be heresy but let’s give it a go. While the 924 is close to my heart as my favourite toy from when I was a boy, I don’t think it look as sleek as the 918 and the 928. Apparently other people have MOCed this one too. The cockpit of the the […]
About a month ago I started sorting through the pile of old Lego my siblings and I had when we were kids in the hope of recreating my favourite toy: The 924 Space Cruiser. It soon became clear too many bricks were missing for that one. Since then I’ve recreated a bunch of my brother’s […]
I feel I have reached the end of what I can build from our our LEGO bricks. They are all missing a very few bits and bobs and I have added a few things here and there such as extra soldiers. In the end I managed to build: 6074: Black Falcon Fortress 6067: Guarded Inn […]
Going through our old LEGO, I remember my brother had a ghost, b ut couldn’t find it. So for my reassembled LEGO Classic Castle project I bought one online to complete the set. Combining Black Falcon’s Fortress with the Guarded Inn and with Black Monarch’s Ghost The Castle sets came with studs so they were meant […]
For my Lego classic space setup I want to create two things from scratch: A two-floor space station and a mine as I have a lot of digging style vehicles. Here is the mine, which is also really my first real MOC (My Own Creation). I chose the darker grey available now as I think the […]
