I made the Miami Vice and the Ice Cream Heist moc back in Feb and took it apart when I made the Paradisa Modular moc. And while I am really proud of the modular moc, it felt heavy and blocky compared to the other Paradisa sets, which are more airy. Plus I missed the storytelling […]

After enjoying my Paradisa modular moc for a while, I felt like going back to a more true-to-Paradisa display. So I took apart the moc and used the opportunity to build and film all my Paradisa sets together. 6401 Seaside Cabana 6402 Sidewalk Cafe (my first set) 6403 Paradisa Playground ( some bits missing) 6405 […]

My wife is a LEGO Modular collector and it gave me the idea to transform my second 6416 Poolside Paradise set into a modular using bits from two 6402 Sidewalk Cafe sets, the 6405 Sunset Stables set and the 6409 Island Arcade set. I initially started out designing a full modular in the Studio app, […]
LEGO: A visit to LEGO Idea House
Back in 2018 I took a course in “LEGO® Serious Play®“, which is a structured workshop methodology to tackle complex problems. Below LEGO® Serious Play® in action. The training took place in Billund, hometown on LEGO, and more specifically at the invite-only “LEGO Idea House“. This was before my AFOL hobby took off in 2023, […]
Finding the LEGO Paradisa theme has filled me with 90s and 80s nostalgia and I added Baywatch earlier to my growing Paradisa scene. Now I have added Crockett and Tubbs from Mimi Vice riding their icon white Ferrari Testarossa, which I found the instructions for on youtube . I’ve added them to my Paradisa scene […]

Just a fun little addition to my LEGO Paradisa landscape. Mitch and C.J. from Bay Brickwatch. 🎵I’ll be there…🎵
As I am building up my LEGO Paradisa display, I ended up with two 6402 Sidewalk Cafes and it gave me the idea to make it the starting point of a story by merging the two into one, removing one of the (exclusive to this set) printed ice cream tiles, and adding a thief (a […]
I recently learned about the Lego Paradisa range looking for a cafe for my Lego Classic Town. Really like how different this looks and while I understand this was targeting girls, I can’t help but get a Miami Vice nostalgic feeling about it hence the white sports car (I need to find a minifigure for […]
I really like set 675 Snack Bar. It’s a nice modest classic town set with so much storytelling potential. I modified it for my 2023 winter moc by adding additional floors. And when I recreated the set post-christmas, I decided to modify it a little bit but adding a small rooftop terrace.
So… my LEGO Retro Winter MOC is complete! I will add additional elements from the LEGO advent calendar as I open the lips, but here is the LEGO Retro Winter Village as it is. This was super fun project. I’ve used some of the old LEGO sets I’ve spend the year recreating from my siblings […]
