@LegoTherapy I’m in lust with him😍
I think it’s 10220
I love my husband, but I want to strangle him because he did the base, engine - essentially all the bottom 20% (years ago) having told me I’d made mistakes. I have been happily building away since Christmas, only to discover yesterday that he’s done it wrong and much of my enjoyable work needs to be largely dismantled to redo his early part 🤯🤬😭 Anyone else felt the range at someone else doing this sort of thing.

@StrikeForever (love Strike too) what's the number of the set?

Floralnomad · 31/12/2024 14:14

The Vespa looks great @Pumpkittenspice . @StrikeForever the camper an is a nice build , we’ve got that one somewhere . My husband has one bag left to do on Jabbas Sailbarge so I will try and put a picture up when he’s finished, it actually looks better in real life than the picture on the box and the inside is very detailed .

@LegoTherapy I have downloaded the app. Unfortunately, it can’t really help me with this, my first build. It’s the VW Campervan, long retired, so it just has images from the booklet. I’m getting there, but the booklet instructions are not entirely accurate for this one. I’m enjoying it enough to be hooked though😀

I've got two bags left if the post office and so far it's been a lovely build. Part way through I started using the Lego builder app and it's brilliant. The light in our living room is rubbish for Lego and sometimes the instruction booklet isn't very clear with some of the more unusual pieces and how they fit. The app has been a godsend.
We are going to build the Harry Potter chess set today.

Finished building the Vespa! It was such a fiddly and fragile build, but I’m so pleased with how it looks 😊

@Dearover I bet the Pansies are lovely 🙂

Dearover · 29/12/2024 17:41

That one is also in my "to build" pile

I have a nice Emma Bridgewater pansies version in real life.

No idea my dp did it who brought for me as he has a lot more patience than me. I could barely put the pot together

Show quote history

I managed the pot ok and attaching the branches with the big flowers ok, had 2 x small branches with leaves which could not attach anywhere. I will try again next Christmas!

Somemothersdoavem · 28/12/2024 19:31

This looks beautiful, I found the earlier leaves difficult to attach, any tips?

My Bowser. I love him 😍

Have orchid and wild flower sets on the mantle, and a piranha plant.

Currently building R2D2, will post again in a day or so!
