DH likes the X Files one...BUT we'll wait - on the grounds that it might be a bit "niche" and be discounted and it also could be unstable with the UFO balanced on a pillar.

After Snoopy being such a disappointment, I can wait until there are plenty of reviews and get it later in the yr for him for xmas...maybe when there's double insider points 🤔

Have you seen the X Files set?

I'm going to get the new Jaguar for my birthday next month to add to my classic vehicle collection.

My partner has been wanting the X Files set, it looks great!

I bought Simba for DH.
The massive box from JL arrived yesterday afternoon.
He's finished him already...😻🦁

I just ordered it for my Mum's Birthday from Smyths - hope it is good. 😀

I am currently half way through the Volvo Lego Excavator that was significantly reduced. One of the most complex builds I have done so far

If anyone fancies the Lego Harry Potter Hogsmead Village, Argos have it on offer with £70 off!

I was at my online book club on Thursday and we were chatting about projects which start and never end. Lego seems to be something to blitz. They all liked my Starry Night, but were mainly stuck on cross stitch & tapestry projects.

There was a definite Lego AND stitching AND reading vibe going on.

It’s quite expensive as well, I will pass on this one.

Yeah. It may be 4k pieces, but it's too expensive.
The Monet one wasn't exactly cheap either.

Somemothersdoavem · 17/07/2026 13:27

I do love the fact that Lego art range is expanding though, I wonder what Lego will do next. Lego art is my favourite, I’ve sold some smaller sets so plan to get less Lego but put it towards the bigger sets such as the Lego art paintings.

It really is a bit too much of a leap from the real thing iyswim.

The original has so much gold, this has a lot of yellow and beige...🙄 The Kiss (Klimt) - Wikipedia

It's also massive, so I'd worry about the weight hanging of whatever screws I'd have to put in the wall.

Not for me either, it’s the first time I have seen this piece of art, It’s interesting 🤔

Gustav Klimt – The Kiss 31221 | Art | Buy online at the Official LEGO® Shop GB

For those that haven't seen it yet.
I still don't think this one is for me.

eta...When I posted yesterday, I honestly had no idea "the Kiss" was being pre-released today!

@Somemothersdoavem Funnily enough, I've got the same 3!
I don't like the Mona Lisa or the Sunflowers...
There's a rumour about Klimt "The Kiss"...but I really want Munch "The Scream".

I love the Lego art range, they make beautiful display pieces, The Kiss painting sounds great 😊

Somemothersdoavem · 15/07/2026 21:28

The kiss painting sounds great. I have got the Mona Lisa, The great wave, Sunflowers, starry night, the new Monet one, The LOVE sign and the Japanese Cherry blossom painting 😊.

Dearover · 15/07/2026 20:24

I have Mona Lisa, Starry Night, Sunflowers, Monet & Modern Art. I don't think I'll get The Kiss.

The red panda though is another matter

hattie43 · 15/07/2026 20:18

Just seen ‘ The Kiss ‘ . It looks amazing

I’ve built 4 Lego sets this weekend: devs megadrive, tribute to Gallileo, tribute to Amelia Earhart, and the Mexican restaurant GWPS.

Is it done in panels then? We have 2 here waiting to be built.

You build the frame first and then it’s in panels, divided into sections, it’s a nice build. Lovely colours and cute butterflies. I’ve done the first 18 bags this weekend. There’s 25 bags.
