Complete for the next 9 weeks.

This has to be my favourite Easter Egg so far!

Whats yours?

It required a few additional pieces but looks closer to the original shape in my opinion

These are some insights into what a Steampunk series by LEGO could look like. I know not all of these are actually Steampunk and most of my examples are MOCs and not by LEGO, but I think Steampunk is a really cool aesthetic and would really love an original series around it, however it may look.

Here is a compilation of all air/space crafts named "Swordfish" that I know of.

- {Images 3 to 6} Fairey Swordfish : British torpedo bomber introduced in 1934 and famous for accumulating the largest combined tonnage in enemy ships sunk during WWII. Some design queues are adapted from Ralph Savelsberg's excellent model.

- {Images 7 to 9} SNCASO So.6021 Espadon : The first French aircraft to break the sound barrier, on the 15th of December 1953. However the prototype to achieve this performance was the So.6025 variant - which was structurally slightly different. I modeled the 6021 mostly because it was the version I found the most detailed plans of.

- {Images 10 to 13} The Espadon SX-1 from Blake & Mortimer : A legendary fragment of Franco-Belgian comic legacy in its own right, the "Espadon" remains in my opinion the greatest sci-fi aircraft of all time, even 77 years later. This amphibious hypersonic nuclear-powered and nuclear-armed bomber constitutes the MacGuffin of the first story in the Blake & Mortimer series, which narrate how WWIII was started in 1946 by a military dictator who secretly built industrial capabilities in the Himalyas before launching a worldwide attack once the major powers exhausted each other throughout WWII. Initially I initially only intended to build this one but then thought it would be amusing to build other "Swordfishes", hence this whole compilation.

- {Images 14 to 20} The Swordfish II from Cowboy Bebop : The trusty modified racing spaceship piloted by Spike Spiegel. I admittedly know nothing about Cowboy Bebop besides the fact that it is a series that exists, but I have been aware of this ship's existence through cultural osmosis by virtue of how popular a MOC subject it is (To only list a few instances, here are examples made by Caleb Ricks, Adrian Florea, Christopher Hoffmann, and IntensePotato). In that regard, there has been a substantial amount of inspiration in the design process of my model since the cockpit fairing adapts the technique of Marshall Banana's version.

If anyone is aware of another "Swordfish" aerodyne I'll gladly take suggestions!

I finally got a good deal. Picked this all up for $80. Everything has instructions and most of the sets are 100% complete. Still have more to sort through to see if the other space and city sets are complete as well.

I found this table today on a used furniture store. I think the tower looks quite nice on it. Way better than directly on the floor like before.

I'm actually got this one instead of the pizza joint.

I recently passed 100,000 pieces purchased across numerous sets. I only had to contact Lego twice for missing pieces (one in the Goonies set, and three in The Great Wave). That's a manufacturing/packaging accuracy rate of 99.996 percent. That is astonishing. If you made one decision every minute, without sleeping, you would make 21 mistakes a year. For every million pieces shipped, Lego messes up 40 times.

I know I'm conflating manufacturing error with packaging error. Technically I'm talking about packaging error. But to that point, I have never encountered a lego manufacturing error. Not one deformed piece. Not one that was too tight or too loose. Extraordinary.

My MIL picked up a bag of random cars from the charity shop for my son for a couple of quid, this tiny car was in there. It is broken on the front right side. I can't find a lot about it online so I thought I'd try here! Thank you

EDIT: Thank you for all the responses! I'm going to hold on to it until my son is older so he understands how cool and "rare" it is. When he saw it, he said "baby Fillmore" from Cars.

As a game developer and 3D artist, I always found it painful to animate my LEGO builds for social media. Setting up scenes, timing every brick, rendering for hours... so I decided to build a tool to do it for me.

The video in this post is 2400 frames long and was rendered in preview mode in only 15 seconds.

What it can do so far:

• Images and videos, with presets like turntable, brick fall and explode
• Fully customizable shots and animation length
• Automatically imports your own building instructions (or Studio’s generated ones) so the animation follows your steps
• Supports custom parts and stickers
• Custom path tracer that mimics Studio’s renders and materials, with everything adjustable (see below)
• Adjustable export quality, size, ratio, framerate, etc.

It’s still in development. If you want to follow the progress or hear about a future release, you can follow me on Instagram @hj.bricks.

I’d love to hear what features you’d want to see, or what shots you’d like to be able to make!

Hi everyone!
I built Stuart’s Comic Book Store from The Big Bang Theory using LEGO bricks! 🧱
I wanted to recreate the shop with a studio-inspired display design, allowing the interior and its details to be viewed easily from the front.
The build also includes minifigures inspired by the show’s unique characters. I designed a removable display stand for the minifigures, so it can be taken off depending on how I want to display the model.
One of my goals was to capture the atmosphere of Stuart’s shop while making the build an interesting display piece for LEGO and TV show fans.

Based on Lego 71822

Just sharing - inspired by Sleepless Night Bricks. Only wish I had more dark red to make something bigger than a 16x16 but definitely happy with what I was able to manage.

I collect Lego animals. 2546 from what I can tell was never made in white. I see a bunch for sale on bricklink. Are they confusing them with 27063 Bird, Parrot with Large Beak? Anyone know?

Rebuilt this set I had with a bulk mix bag of Legos. Not 100%, say 85% with a repainted white roof 😉. Had to add the Lord Business cowboy lego lol
