Okay, time to share some of the collection here..
My collection of cars. The yellow/black stripes Dodge Viper isn't actually Lego! I got it the other day when I was at the hobby shop. They had the Mould King Lego alternative brand so I thought I'd give one a go. It was very close to Lego in quality, but you could tell very slight differences. Still, $75 for a 1236 piece kit is good value compared to a similar sized Lego kit.
I had to pay quite a bit extra for this as it seems to be very hard to find. I don't think it's been retired, but I could find it anywhere for near RRP. It's probably available everywhere now that I have it! 😂 The 4 parts separate if you want to display them individually and even come with a piece on the back allowing you to hand them on a wall.
This 'very dusty' old relic I've had for over 45 years! I had 3 space Lego kits as a kid. I used to just use the pieces to build my own ships. I always liked this one and so I never took it apart and have always kept it. I think I built it after I saw The Empires Strikes Back... yep, this dates me 😂 I wanted to build something similar to the snow-speeders as I thought they were cool. I really should give it a wash.
I ended up getting my partner addicted to Lego and she has almost the entire Botanicals collection. I but her one when I've annoyed her, so needless to say she has a lot of them! Oh, and the cat of course!
Earlier today she had to go to the mall to a show replace place to get a st#*p on (the 'holdy' bit) her favourite bag (dragons reading books I think) fixed. It is right near the board game and Lego shops so i went along for a browse, and to get out of the house for a bit. Needless to say my willpower is non-existent and I didn't come home empty handed.
The Snake was a freebie. Who says no to free Lego?! 😁
So my long weekend is all planned!
My Lego addiction began when I got my first botanical set. I have nearly all of them now I think @MJG017
I then went to Disneyland and came home and the new Disney castle came out. I caved and bought it. Then of course I needed the original one which was hard to get for a reasonable price but I found one on eBay for less than RRP. I then get a fair bit of the Disney sets including all the brickheadz.
I have the architecture sets for the places I’ve been to. I bought the paris set at the top of the Eiffel Tower!
My daughter and I also share an animal collection which is out in the lounge room.
my Disney Lego is a bit all over the place at the moment cause I’ve moved some furniture around and need to put my shelves back up again.
seriously don’t have room for anymore but the addiction is real!
would be cool to hire a set, build it, pack it down and send it back!
