I pay for food and utilities, too. Occasionally new socks if they get a hole. But other than that, pretty much just Lego.

[REVIEW] 71755 Temple of the Endless Sea
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Bob De Quatre's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
The main temple building (bags 4-7) looks really nice and I’d buy that as a stand-alone set at half the price of the full set. But I’m not interested in any of the side builds or the sea serpent which looks a bit incomplete (especially compared to the lineup of Ninjago dragons) -
LEGO Monkie Kid 2021
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Robert8's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Just my opinion… the City of Lanterns looks really nice but the comparisons to the Ninjago City sets are going to stop once people start building this and actually putting it next to their Ninjagos. Those are some of the greatest sets ever made, with tremendous scale, absurd parts usage, clever mechanisms built into the sets, etc and City of Lanterns - while very colorful and eye catching - just doesn’t look like it’s on their level at all. Unfair to this set to even make the comparisons. -
Chinese New Year Sets - Rumors and Discussion
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Klaus-Dieter's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Definitely a step down for this theme from the sets it delivered the last 2 years. Ice Festival is nice and I’ll probably get it eventually. The vignettes don’t do much for me. -
LEGO 10294 Titanic Discussion
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Vilhelm22's topic in Special LEGO Themes
9,090 for $630 ($0.069 ppp) would be more consistent with both Colosseum (9,036 for $550 - $0.061 ppp) and Creator Expert Taj Mahal (5,923 for $370 - $0.062 ppp) -
LEGO Collectable Minifigures Future Series Rumours

How many individual copies of each set does LEGO produce?
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Lego David's topic in General LEGO Discussion
This feels like a very AFOL perspective. Central Perk and Saturn V are popular among AFOLs but probably nowhere close to TLG’s bestsellers. The $10-20 City, Friends, and Star Wars sets that are found in every Wal Mart and Target and are getting picked up daily from every store for a kids birthday party present - those are the bestsellers. -
Disney Properties 2021 - Rumors & Discussion
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
If it’s 500-800 pieces as has been rumored, I doubt it’ll be $35 since it’ll be a Disney licensed set (…or if it’s $35, then probably lower piece count than originally rumored) -
LEGO Ninjago 2021
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to The Brick Boss's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
It’s a fantastic build. There are a bunch of very nice combinations of system and technic to incorporate the various mechanisms. Some really clever designs and parts usage building up the ships hull. And I also think the dojo section is very well done. Highly recommended. -

Unpopular Opinions about LEGO
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Lego David's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Unpopular opinion: even though Barracuda Bay was 2020 set of the year for a lot of people, it was only the third best ship build of that year. Creator Pirate Ship and Destiny’s Bounty are both better. Now, the final product of Barracuda Bay is certainly much more impressive. But if we’re just talking about the builds, Barracuda Bay uses lots of big hull pieces and the build spends a lot more time simply furnishing the ship. The other two are more technical and satisfying building experiences that construct the ship from no (creator) or fewer (bounty) big hull pieces and incorporate more system detailing (creator) and technic functions (bounty). -
LEGO Art - Rumours and Discussion
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to Vilhelm22's topic in Special LEGO Themes
I think the scale of the map makes it difficult (since it takes 11k pieces just to get the level of definition in the picture that they want), but it’d be fun to see them start doing more with the LEGO Art theme than just the 2d mosaics -

11,000 round 1x1 tiles sounds a bit repetitive Agree that the final display is underwhelming -
LEGO Ideas Discussion
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to The Real Indiana Jones's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Agreed. If the project gives Lego an idea that they want to develop, they’ll find the right pieces. The Steamboat Willie and Winnie the Pooh submissions both had underwhelming builds that became great sets after the pros completely redesigned and reworked them. -
LEGO Ideas Discussion
Northgeorgiamasonry replied to The Real Indiana Jones's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I don’t see how anyone can be excited about the Creator 3-in-1 castle after seeing this list. 5 castles - all superior to the Creator Castle - and they’re all going to get rejected because Lego just released their own - and much less interesting - castle. Oh well, maybe 1 or 2 will get invited to the next BrickLink round so they can join the Castle in the Forest. Besides the castles, I really like the Jazz Quarter, King Tut, Steampunk Airship, and Greek Temple.
