Two Lego Sets, 10305 Lion Knight's Castle, and 40567 Forestmen Hideout... They're very nice... but can I make classical Castle sets with them? Follow me and I'll share three + one I already shared last year.
I brought in another Classic Space set, I only realized after I got it that it's perfect timing... it's from the year I was born and it's almost my birthday.
Now I'm not saying I'm obsessed with 1557 Space Scooter
but I do rather like the little thing.

I finally started a New Flickr account to show off Lego Moc's. I've been busily adding to it all day, I don't think of myself as very prolific, but... I've built quite a few things, and this is not exhaustive. Just some of my faves. www.flickr.com/photos/20414...

These are some of my old Steam Wars Lego Mocs. I used to enjoy doing stuff like Steampunk, but as I accrued the parts to do it well I lost interest/time/space.
Here we have my Steampunk: T-65 X-Wing that was 'built wrong' since I pushed it past recognizability, A Tie Fighter, and a Firespray 31.

This will be the photo thread for my latest Legoland Classic Space MOC
I Ended up talking out the steps because my phone was picking up heavy breathing. I wasn’t sure photos would do the 9V justice, I don’t usually make Moc videos. This is my Lego Moc project from last night.

Oh hey... I really can just walk in the door of my house and immediately build Lego all night long. all I needed was to give myself some sort of motivation. I even used the 9V, I never use the 9V.
The lighting ain't sufficient, so no photos till tomorrow.

Last year I didn't build any Classic Space Mocs for half the year, but it was still a decent year for projects.
I pulled off 3 #anime #Lego projects.

#QueenMillennia: A strange red vehicle from an episode of Queen Millennia.

My brother modded his Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time game to have Hatsune Miku as the player character...he keeps texting me pictures every few days.
Every screenshot he sends might as well be a 'wish you were here.' postcard.

It's been a good while since I picked up some 'new' #ClassicSpace sets. I had paused after 2020 January when I hauled in most of Unitron thinking it was gonna be a good year.
Here's 1499 #TwinStarfire.
I made a MOC with it before putting together the model, just to try out its possi-build-ities.

I don't believe in Good or Evil,
Good King Ahab wanted a garden that wasn't his, and when he could not buy it he hired men to call Naboth, the owner of the garden, Evil before a court, so Naboth was accused of Evil and killed.
Good and Evil are often reverse.

Today I thought I'd aim for a simpler, straightforward MOC attempt, something that doesn't take 4-8 hours... maybe 1.5 or less instead. and to that end I present a Classic Space UFO. It features a two man cockpit that opens, and playable rotating feature... this is my idea of a quick midsize build

I guess I'll start a thread for 2026 tv shows.
Alien Earth 1.
Right out the gate it feels like Alien, maybe if I'd only seen the first movie it wouldn't quite fit, but I've seen a lot of them, and also play the Aliens: Fireteam Elite game... 1 episode in and It's already better than Prometheus.
