LEGO – 6801: Moon Buggy (1981), 6808 Galaxy Trekkor (1987) and 6827 Strata Scooter (1987)

Three of the smaller vehicles that I’ve managed to rebuilt. The Galaxy Trekkor I got for free with a purchase as it was incomplete. I had a few of the missing parts so it is almost complete now. It just needs two of the old trans red discs and I think the 1×2 tile display […]

LEGO – MOC Spaceship + Buggy for Space Baby

this is really my first attempt at building something custom for the Space Baby. It’s basically a space ship with a “side car” for the baby, that can detach and fly off on its own.

LEGO – 918: Space Transport (1978)

The two sets I remember the most from when I was a kid was 6970: Beta I Command Base and  487: Space Cruiser. And I also remember really wanting the 497: Galaxy Explorer, but it was too expensive so I got the 487, which I really liked too. But what I don’t remember is that […]

LEGO – 6251: Pirate Minifigures (1989)

This set was one of the first LEGO set with new faces rather than the standard face, might even have been the first one. Not sure what to do with these as it’s mainly classic space and classic castle I’m putting together, but they are fun to have. They are missing a few things most […]

LEGO – Maxi figure sets (212-2: Scooter, 213: Airplane Ride and 276-1: Doctor’s Office)

Following the LEGO family set, I’ve been able to put together some more maxi figure sets from the 70s. Not sure what to do with these as they have no emotional value for me, but they were a fun LEGO archeological project. 213: Airplane Ride 276-1: Doctor’s Office This one is missing a 2×1 white […]

LEGO – 6928: Uranium Search Vehicle (1984)

When I started digging through my old LEGO, I had hoped to be able to build the two sets I remember the most: The 924 Space Cruiser and 6970 Beta-1 Command Base. Unfortunately, it quickly became clear I was missing too many pieces and I gave up on the space LEGO in the first instance […]

LEGO – 200-1: LEGO Family (1974)

Going through my old LEGO, I found bits for LEGO figures I didn’t recognise, so I did some Googling and found out this is a set from 1974, the year I was born! Where they come from, I have no idea, could be from one of my older half-sisters, but these are cool so they […]

LEGO – Store finds: 6801: Space Scooter, 6650: Fire and Rescue Van, and 1562: Pepsi Promo

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 […]

LEGO – 6067 Guarded Inn (1986)

This was a fun build and I really like this little inn. It is missing a few things here and there, most notably the grey 2x1x3 angular part that makes up the chimney. I’ve used a black one I had instead, but will order a replacement. I only had one Crusader torso left, so I […]

Even more troops Before the set was washed   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 to be linked together in […]

LEGO – 6010 Supply Wagon (1984)

I think this one was my brother’s as I was more into the space sets. He would have been 6 (and I 10) so I am not 100% sure. This one is missing a few bits, most notably the round, grey shield. It is also missing a black battleaxe and his pants are missing the […]
