The Lego appreciation thread

Is the show already out?
I guess Luke is some kind of blue milk drinking beach bum. Darth Rey makes sense.
looks like it comes out in September - I'm learning all of this on the fly lol, I never heard of it until yesterday
 
"Oh hey, I love TNBC and this LEGO set looks rad..."
*sees price*
"Nightmare Before what? Never heard of it."

Seriously guys... That's like half a video game console. I love LEGO and am very glad I gave my Nephew my GIANT CONTAINER OF LEGO when he was old enough because he loves it, but I'd sooner just make my own parts at this point.

You're not wrong.

I thought Tiago Catarino had a really good observation in his review -- the graveyard module, Jack, Sally, and Zero as a set would have hit the same nostalgic notes at a much more reasonable price point.

 
Was saving this for my daughter and I to do together. But with the stress of the current custody battle and my shake diet I needed something to focus on for a while.
Work in progress but it’s coming along. I appreciate the little touches that are not as obvious on the box: Such as the bed in the inn that is a mimic and sections that pull out to reveal secret doors and areas.

Very cool.

The collectible D&D minifigs are available right now. They are in blind boxes, but there is an app that lets you identify them without opening the box. (link) That way you can still have something to open and build.
 
Well, now I'm just going to have to buy all of them!

...I do need that cackling witch, though. For a number of reasons.
 
Clearly we need a ranking list of avatar types where those further down the list are judged as inferior to those above. Obviously LEGO figurine based avatars will be on the very top of the list...
Well. This old post of mine hasn't aged as well as I would have hoped. :p
