I know it basically saved Lego as a company but it still makes me sad that Legos are mostly licensed products now. They seem to have so many unique ‘pre-fabricated’ parts compared to sets I had as a kid in the 90s, like armor bits or vehicle bodies. They seem more like traditional models put together with Lego studs than a model cleverly made of mostly generic Lego pieces.

I really want this. The price is pretty good at $120. The size is not so good at 1 meter long. No place to put that.

I was eyeing that the other day. Juliane says it’s too big for the apartment.

Hang it from the ceiling.

Maybe I can buy it and keep it in the box for the future.

I miss the Legos of my childhood in the mid-90s before they were mostly based on licensed properties and half made of set specific parts. Ice planet dudes robot planet dudes, dragon knights, that stuff was great.

I put the Ray’s Music Exchange above also on reddit and someone made a comment with this amazing piece of stop motion Lego animation.

It’s an F1 car, if you were staring as long as I was, unable to figure it out.

Great Googily Moogily!

This is absolutely gorgeous… but at $800, I just can’t justify it.

Yeah, about that

Not sure you guys have similar bottles to the one I used for scale. It holds a liter.
