Lego is a brand with many different divisions. Some are child’s toys, many are not. The architecture series is aimed towards older teens/adults, therefore it should look better than it does.

New Super Mario 64™ Question Mark Block, I quite like the look of this.

Haha I wish! I can see how this can get addicting now, forgot I also bought a wee plane 42117 for £6, so I'll try and stop now as I've not even received any of them yet and I keep buying more! I've just bought my first house and I will have a small office so figured I could use these as decorations in there

The lad and I have finished a couple of other models recently, firstly the Lego Catamaran (42105) which is pretty decent, especially for £20 from Tesco.
And then secondly a brand I've not tried before YC/Happy Build, a wide-bodied 911. Fantastic quality parts but a few minor negatives on the design, but overall a decent build.

That is really smart.
I'm always tempted by Lego and Technic, but I've know space for it unfortunately.

I agree. Looks like trash but then most of the architect stuff does.

I think so, its a cracking build to put together. You could also not install the power parts and sell them on for a decent sum if you just want to display it.
That was the push I needed
It came in the LEGO shipping box as well which I suppose could add value one day if I never get round to building it and/or get round to selling any of my unopened collection..

I visited a Lego shop for the first time since Covid yesterday.
The Titanic is huge, but looks really nice.
The AtAt looks decent, but no more than that.
The big thing I noticed is how few technics sets they had. I was pretty disappointed by that.

I can't be bothered with Technic any more. Too many pins and cogs and whatnot. Give me a massive Creator Expert set any day!

I feel your pain, was going to purchase myself then the other half mentioned Christmas, took the set off the guy in the shop paid for it and banned me from touching until Christmas.
She even told me to look surprised when I unwrap it Christmas day...

I like Technics as, once you have a few sets, you can scratch build some amazing stuff.
I have a remote control Lego Creator TRex that walks, which is one of the best sets I've built.
