As i build up my LEGO Winter Village for 2024, I found this old, still sealed, Christmas polybag from 1995 with what is probably one of the first minifig santas. He uses a pirate bandana as a hat and wizards beard as santa beard! Fun little build.

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 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 […]

These LEGO sets are not from my old pile of LEGO, but since they are old sets, I’ve included them anyway. 6801: Space Scooter (1981) I found this last year (2022) in a second-hand store. This was before I started my project with reassembling my old LEGO, but I had this Space Scooter as a […]
