Public service announcement for UK #LEGO fans, double loyalty points from June 19 to 23.
Yes, the weekend before payday. Yes, they do want to bankrupt you.
Yes, you’ll buy things anyway.
That’s how it works!

Today isn’t the most exciting New Lego Day…But this set commemorating Hulk’s decision that the best solution to Thanos is to drive a customised monster truck directly at him, but with Hulk acknowledging health and safety concerns so putting on a crash helmet is one of the best things ever.

If you're celebrating, Happy Valentines Day! And if you're not, absolutely use it as an excuse to build some Lego!
Either way, have a great day!

This is such a great build, really looks fantastic. One of those creations where it almost feels like too much thought has gone into it. Just the fact the taxi matches Speed Champions alone is cool.
But I really, reallyyyy do not want to think about how much it would cost if they made it!

This fantastic Fifth Element model needs to be a LEGO set! If it gets enough votes it will be made into one! 🥰 It even has minifigures of the characters!

This story is ridiculous, to save you reading it. For a start it’s from years ago, but it’s Lego using generic terminology that mechanics, electricians etc. all use related to identifying connectors as “male” and “female”.
It’s nothing to do with Lego as a company, who are clearly not anti-LGBT.

Lego is anti-LGBT and promotes the idea that there are only two genders, an exhibition at the Science Museum has claimed

@lollujo.bsky.social Sorry that Sega have tried to spoil the cruise! It’s a good job you’re nailing the Lego content. The videos were well made from the start, but the last few months it’s obvious you’ve got more confident with it too.
Have a good holiday!

Probably unsurprisingly, my girlfriend also quite likes Lego. I don’t think she’d complain much if I got her a Lego set for Valentines Day. And even with that in mind…
…I still don’t think this is a great suggestion for a gift idea, Lego.

To all the people receiving red weather warnings and are most affected by #StormEowyn, you know how there are lots of Fridays where you want to have a lay-in and then stay in all day building Lego, but you have to go out?
Today you can do that. Look after yourselves and stay safe!

Star Wars: Outlaws Sabacc, but Lego. All aspects of that sentence are excellent so therefore it is excellent.
(Not sure Chopper is delighted with it, but everyone else should be.)

Been somewhat quiet because *gestures at everything*, but I hope to bring a bit of a smile in the form of this LEGO Sabacc table inspired by Star Wars: Outlaws - a terrific minigame I fell deeply in love with!

A new annoyance: Some (quite rare) Lego minifigures have arrived at Brick Orbit HQ with a thin layer of what I can only assume from the smell is vape liquid.
Maybe if you’re selling quite expensive stuff, don’t tip that on them?
Fingers crossed they come clean and their smell can be removed!

This lighting is top-tier.
There's something theraputic about building a Lego set. As much as I love building them, I simply don't have the shelf space to store the models afterwards, but very occasionally, I have to make an exception...
Like this Lamborghini Countach I spent a few hours on this evening!

Picture of my biggest LEGO project. The UNSC Katara. I'm still quite proud of this one. See more images on my website www.stevefromouterspace.com

These guys are going to cause a bit of a fuss when their sets release, aren’t they?
It’s very on brand for the show that the image they’ve got has them surrounded by Duplo…But ignoring it to play noughts and crosses.
Who’s excited then?

Been away being festive, but I’m here in time to say Merry Christmas to one and all, I hope a great day has been had by all.
Anyone get any Lego? I bet one or two of you did. The Endurance has been discovered under my tree, which was lovely.
And thanks all for being lovely on here!

My recommendation if you run an e-commerce business that sells toys (and/or adult collectibles) is to not have flu for the last week before Christmas.
I feel prettyyyy damn awful, but all orders made it out of the door on time and will hopefully arrive on time. Phew!

Listen, I'll be honest...I have no idea what is going on here or why this will come into existence after January 1.
What I do know is that I need it.

The forthcoming Lego City Soapbox racers, main set and additional ones.
Maybe a slightly niche collection for UK-folk I think, but I’m sure with both a toilet and a hospital bed implausibly rolling down a hill they’ll find an audience here in Last of The Summer Wine fans.

Will this #Lego Ideas #Taskmaster set reach 10,000? It better, and it’ll be a disgrace if not.
Will it get made into a set? Almost certainly not, as was the case with the amazing Great British Bake Off set. It’s just *too* British.
But watch the amazing video and live in hope, at least!
