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.

We need more shelves for the Lego.

LSTMS30555 · 17/10/2024 10:06

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

Ooh a Lego thread.

I adore Lego. I played with it myself in my childhood when it was so basic but still had hours of fun.

My son got me the Taj for Xmas. It was not as much fun as the Friends set I got (but don't tell my son that).

I was so tempted to get this off the lego site as they are retiring it soon , looks amazing

Adult DS has all the games consoles sets and Pac-Man machine which I love - he also does super Mario range
DD likes the plants and flowers - she also has historic buildings in her conservatory - might buy her notre dame for Xmas
DP likes technix and the space range - currently considering crane and bulldozer but they are £4-500

BigBoysDontCry · 17/10/2024 09:36

Oh and that doesn't count the instructions which are in a separate box.

BigBoysDontCry · 17/10/2024 09:34

This is ours, 57kg and counting...

Not as pretty as your displays but we are hoping to get it sorted at some point.

The book store is quite slow going but my next set is waiting for me in the loft - the Jazz club Grin.

TheWayTheLightFalls · 17/10/2024 09:29

I am currently working my way through the bookstore (you can see it in @JaceLancs ' first picture) - but I love all Lego, any Lego, big, small, whatever. Especially if it involves minifigures. One of my greatest joys as an adult is spending my discretionary income on a Lego set once in a while.

SoMuchToBits · 17/10/2024 09:26

I don't have Lego, but have a vast collection of Playmobil! It's all stored in boxes in my shed. But every so often I get some out and make dioramas, especially when there's some big occasion. My latest was a Playmobil Olympics this summer. Smile

Ohfuckrucksack · 17/10/2024 09:26

I have so much Lego envy looking at these.

In a fit of minimalism I got rid of most of my collection and may have some regrets.

I'm trying hard not to buy more but the Earth and moon technic set looks so fantastic I'm wavering.

If I buy it I'm going to blame all of you for encouraging me.

JaceLancs · 17/10/2024 09:19

@WhingeInTheWillows we are going for the botanical gardens set too but apparently it’s huge! Shelves needed soon

Pumpkittenspice · 17/10/2024 08:44

JaceLancs · 17/10/2024 08:30

I like the buildings best but also have plants and flowers dotted around the house
We also have a separate village for Xmas

Wow, wow, wow!

The one that got away ....
for me The Parisian Restaurant

And if I could choose another the fishing shack

WhingeInTheWillows · 17/10/2024 08:33

@Pumpkittenspice I’m planning on getting the Ideas Botanical Garden set too. No idea where I’ll put it though!

As soon as Mariah is defrosted this lot is coming out. Stored in the WC cupboard in the off season. Have a 5 or so Modular’s and stacks and stacks of unopened boxes in the wardrobes. Will start the home alone house Dec 1st.

have the kingdoms range, the gold mining stuff they did, some Star Wars, a few Harry Potter, lots of Disney I was collecting for DD since she was born but she doesn’t seem interested so I gave up on those.

I’ve also ordered some of the bricklink designer series. Most recently the chocolate shop which will ship next year and the train station should be coming next month.

So exciting! Such lovely display pieces!

I started a few years ago with the winter village sets and it grew from there. These are a few small sets I have currently built and the bigger one is my favourite at the moment.

Wow! That’s an impressive collection!

I’ve been eyeing up the Lego Friends Botanical Garden, which you have there 😍

I think I’m going to hold out until the Lego Ideas Botanical Garden is released (next month, I think!)

Our house is full of Lego (see username) and I'm currently rebuilding the Hocus pocus house ready for Halloween. We have the Home Alone house, watering can, New York taxi, small Land Rover, a fuck tin of ninjago and Minecraft, things I've made myself, hot air balloon, heart, Easter stuff. There's more coming this Christmas. Love Lego!

hattie43 · 17/10/2024 06:09

I love the botanicals , winter village houses and Modular's interspersed with randoms that I just like . Most are boxed away yet to be done . I'm currently doing the orchid and the elf clubhouse is at my feet next in line .

AChickenPooAndABiscuit · 17/10/2024 04:50

We’ve got the typewriter - bit fiddly in places but brilliant to build. Hoping for Jaws for Christmas (OH wants the Batmobile!). We’ve also got the poinsettia and Winter Village for this year ready to build in December Smile
