First official LEGO store opened up in Sandton City recently.Small but pretty cool.

I desperately want to get the Porce RS 911

 

But it's a lot of $$.

Do yourself a favour. Get one from the local Porsche dealer. Much cheaper than getting the Lego one...

Was a cool build. Can’t seem to find the finished pics. Will look.

 

Built the Corvette after that and this weekend start the new defender. [emoji16]

This was a good set. Looks much nicer in real life than the box art.

 

The Defender was purchased for the youngster this week in case of lockdown.

Is anyone else trying to work from home, but is suffering from serious withdrawal because you have to work but in the background all you can hear is the sound of Lego in plastic containers being searched through as Lego sets are being built by the kids and you'd actually love to go join them??

Not sure this has been covered on here but I signed up to Re-Brickable a while ago. Its a brilliant concept and can give many sets a new lease on life. You can buy plans for your old sets to make new builds. The platform of uploading your sets so you would know If you qualify to build other sets however, is a ball-ache.  Lets just say I haven't had a few hours to try figure it out.

I have done this Unless your collection is massive (ALA Tumbles RIP) your rebuild options are usually limited.

I have more than average lego as before daughter I bought monthly.

Now she gets to play duplo and loving it!

I have to take breaks to join her every now and then(she insists and I don't protest too loudly).

Can't help but asking ... does have the oil leak feature with it?

Some retro Technic Lego fun with my son yesterday afternoon...

 

The basic helicopter idea is from an old Lego ideas book...

 

 

Then fitted a motor.  

 

Then a few mods to add in some aesthetic detailing...

 

 

Because all Lego models are cooler with guns and missiles!
