This is my collection at the moment! I’m currently building the Lego Typewriter 🥰

Here's mine! This is my Lego City, I hope it's not too outing. I have been known to invite Jehovah's Witnesses in to admire it. ( This actually happened) It had a commercial zone, a marina, residential zone and a canal area. It also has a cinema sunk into my undercroft area.

Each building can be lifted off individually and each floor can be accessed.

@hattie43 I use a site called Brick a Brac and they are much cheaper for polybags than Amazon.
But if they don't get Santa back in stock I might have to head to Amazon.

@hattie43 where did you get the Santa polybag please?
There's one I am after but it's sold out on a website I usually use.

All from Amazon ,

Im a huge fan but we don’t have much space in our house to keep stuff on display. My biggest build has been the rollercoaster. I also have some of the botanicals, some architecture, the bus, the VW camper, Beetle, etc. But really out of space! So for my birthday this year I got a Brick Build subscription. You get sent it in the post, build it, dismantle, send back and order a new set! So far I’ve built the kingfisher, floral art (pain in the backside to dissemble!) and the Lego house. I should have taken a pic of each! Once I’ve been a member for three months I can borrow bigger sets - got my eye on the Friends studio.

@Pumpkittenspice yes I want the toucan, the wild flowers and the Animal Crossing for definite but will probably end up getting as many as I can. (Not the Technic one....I just can't build ruddy Technic)
I get ridiculously excited when shops get that yellow tray that usually has 5 or 6 different ones to buy.
You'll probably hear my over excited squeal "Polybaaaaaaags" 😂

My guilty pleasure is Lego. I have far too much.

I am currently building the 4000+ piece Tower Bridge. I would like to get the display box and the light up kit for it as well. It is far too nice to put in the attic when completed.

No such thing as too much Lego!!

Franklefoot · 17/10/2024 15:55

My DSs adore Lego, and we have far too much!
This is my only set. It was so lovely to build, very relaxing. Had to fend off various offers of 'help'!

I’m so jealous of the Mos Eisley Cantina! I really want the band mini figs!

Show quote history

It is a great set! My son loves it... one of my relatives has her set on display and she kindly let him play with it, and then a year later I found it really reduced at John Lewis so snapped it up.

I am the only Lego obsessive here that prefers the little sets ?
I love the small Creator 3 in 1 sets. I've recently built the yellow watering can and the camera. Thinking about maybe the Roller Boot or Ukulele for Christmas.
One of my favourite buys this year was the little red dragon - only £8.99. I love the £8.99 sets.

Agreed . I have a lot of large sets but sometimes I just want a quick small set , I like the brickhedz . I've just bought the blue ford anglia and a couple of Santa poly bags

WhingeInTheWillows · 17/10/2024 11:35

@WolfFoxHare I would buy them if I were you, sets can be a good investment after a few years if you decide you don’t want them. Once they retire the price usually goes up and up.

That's what I keep telling my husband! If we'd bought duplicates of DS's Ninjago City sets, we'd be quids in now. It appreciates better than gold!

Poggishairtufts · 17/10/2024 11:52

I have quite a few of the flower ones but I'm really hankering after the Jaws set. £130 though 😭

Aside from DS's endless smaller sets, and DH's Star Wars ships collection and Dune ornithopter thing, we have the Daily Bugle, the Sanctum Sanctorum, most of the modulars, Mos Eisley Cantina, all the big Ninjago City sets, the Spring Lantern Festival, the Blacksmith's cottage, the Home Alone house, the Log Cabin and I have a lot of the botanical plants... next on the list is the Ideas Treehouse, the Marvel Mansion, the Botanical Gardens and the Lunar New Year restaurant set. I need to order that one quick because it's on back-order. I love the little houses best. I want to make a city layout but we don't have space so they're all over the house on shelves.

I've got the Animal Crossing Lego sets 😁 and grogu & mandalorian. I love Lego going to start collecting again.

I really want the Animal Crossing sets, but I don’t know where to display them!

I have all the botanicals (it is the gateway drug in adult lego, I swear!) Prior to the botanicals, I was not all that into lego but the OH had a few.

Then BOOM I was invested. We have the Ghostbusters building, Daily Bugle, Pac Man, consoles, loads of cars and the milky way. We have run out of space and the OH has over flowed his room is starting to eye up my hobby room.

The OH just got the retro Batman car and I got the Christmas wreath

It is just a lovely ritual. We have a day, normally rainy or cold, where we put a favourite film or series on the tv, get 'build snacks' and then set up the big table/comfy chairs and just sit in each other company either chatting or in companionable silence while we concentrate.

WolfFoxHare · 17/10/2024 11:09

I'd really like the big castle set, the medieval village and the viking village sets... we really have no space for them though! I keep wondering whether to buy them and put them away for when DS moves out, then we could use his bedroom for Lego 😂

Talkingfrog · 17/10/2024 11:02

My vase of lego roses

@JaceLancs I have shelves but they’re full of the bigger sets.I think I’ll have to dismantle some and put them away to make way for the new lot. Either that or take over another room.

Needmorelego · 17/10/2024 10:29

I love collecting polybags too.
I love the look of this one coming out in January.
