Has anyone tried to do anything useful with the FRAME 3X3, W/ BOW, NO. 1 Element 6343651 Design Number 73878 The new half circle window that could be perfectly used for a Captain's quarter or forward deck? It looks off on the Hogwarts chamber of secret castle and medieval 31120 but I'm sure it would be perfect in a pirate ship. All I could think of is the look out towers similar to the Silent Mary but making that ship lego mini figure sized is an expensive MOC I can't afford. I love the galleon inspired ship but i'm just thinking if anyone else has good ideas? Also would the monkey from the Wildlife Rescue Operation 60302 be a perfect fit replacement for the discontinued monkey? There's a darker variant on 60307!

They completely blew the 1989 anniversary I’m not holding out 😢😢😭😭

Check this out, i didn’t like that build but I made another one: Tried making the bottom stick out more and didn’t like that build because it was unstable and broke off easily, I was making things too complex so I settled for this final design and I like it, simple and yet to the point, I was aiming for something grandiose when I realized I wanted simplicity. This the entire MOD that will fit in with 70412 and 70410, with this defense the pirates stood no chance!!! Weapon racks everywhere, a planning room for the governor and a lookout meant for cannon defenses. The MOD in it’s entirety!

That’s amazing, i love the build, it’s the ultimate soldiers fort and would perfectly fit as an imperial building!

Ehh It’s a mixed bag, I had an order June 7th that arrived in June 15th, but I also have a huge order from may 31st that hasn’t arrived and late may also. As a matter fact all sorts of shipping I had this week are slow, I had an order from Hong Kong that was supposed to be delivered on Monday and today nothing, then again, I had a strange week

Really? Let’s see what makes it on the shelves, if that doesn’t send up flares to LEGO i don’t know what will hahaha. I’m happy with Medieval Blacksmith, there’s a lot of innovate and creative ideas brought to the table from that set, I love the upcoming Medieval Castle set but it’s just simple and small. I’m a simple guy though all I do is just purchase them to support it and maybe hopefully tell LEGO we want more

the term "low budget Lego" hurts but it's the truth. It's my current dilemna though, I think the 2015 pirates wave is perfect for using modular like builds to expand their sets, too bad it never took off and to be honest that wave had minimal sets 4-5 tops and they held their value incredible well as of today! with that said though LEGO does have a problem with small sets in that regard but that could be easy fixable with modular/add on as they do with their Ninjago Line, something I didn't think it was that amazing until TeriXeri mentioned it to me, at which point I was blown away because they are low key exploring different pirate themes especially this year, I can see Designers pouring their heart and soul on those sets, even the new Harry potter wave this year is mind blowing to me, I wouldn't mind a castle build with add on-s parts of the castle. There's innovation behind those sets but despite the fact that I can't wait for 31120 Medieval Castle everyone's right I hate the lack of pre fab pieces on it. I think we don't know how to signal to LEGO that hey smaller playsets make the world go around but with the current LEGO ideas medieval coastline getting 10,000 votes who knows what will see up next, maybe they have something up their sleeve considering a Pirates treasure VIP exclusive is rumored for late this year.

Oh look another VIP set I can't get great, I just managed to literally wait out the 2015 pirate VIP set and scored it for 15 bucks 2 weeks ago but still i'm excited for the LEGO Mario Pirate ship, so interested on the build and as sucker for Super mario bros airship levels I can't wait to get one

That Super Mario Airpship is a Masterpiece!!! you can pull it out to make it a bigger ship!!!!! OMGGGG I usually don't jump at sets that often but this is one of them that will make me buy it with out remorse lololol CAN't WAIT!!! I see they are going for the similar build used in 21322 when it comes to the Back end!!! I love it!

My order from June 8th came in!!! WOOOOO never fails to get sent ANOTHER order whenever I use Apple Pay for the original payment lolol I'm a little jelly I see Candelabra's, Golden Owls, black and white medieval accesories from the chess set hahaha I must have missed in stock by minutes because it's all out now lolol. I am also surprised to see that Hogsmeade set sells you everything but the face, I too managed to get another Mcganogall Costume with the hairpiece just an alternative I guess! lolol

How's the plastic after all these years before we got the modern brick?

As a transformers fan myself, I am impressed!!!!!!! seriously Flaspoint and Miasma are my favorite, you literally managed to pull off the impossible not only is they the best representations of fighter jets in Lego bricks, but they also TRANSFORM!!! OMMGGG

Those alligators are everything I wanted! Can’t wait to see t Those alligators are everything I wanted, I love it and can’t wait, all the other animals can go hahaha Lucky you to snag a golden owl, they have been out for while still!

The only thing this set needed was the bell like sound at the end, but this has got the be one of the latest greatest LEGO sets of all time!!!

I will take inspiration from the Harry Potter designs and make this happen, thank you and I will, you are right it was hard to re arrange some pieces already haha

So with that Said does that put them in a virtual queue when the parts get in stock?🤔

I’m just surprised everyone calls when I feel it’s easier to do the web form!

I’m getting old. This topic is of course of 21006 but I also low key made some changes to my 21054, but here’s the catch I bought one 21054 in February of this year that when I finished the build it inspired to mod the 21006. I have a lot of boxes in the garage with all my lego and actions figures thrown in there and I went on a purge where I threw away empty boxes i didn’t need anymore and because i couldn’t fit my 21054 i placed it inside a box somewhere. Recycling day came and I got rid of all My extra boxes, but I fold them and flatten them to fit inside the bin. My memory got extremely fuzzy because a week later my Bricks and pieces for 21006 arrived and I had them store inside my box 21054, thing is I lost it, and couldn’t find it for like 3 weeks since I made this post. I even told my girlfriend I would have felt it with my foot if I stepped on a huge box of lego so I considered it lost forever and during my heartbreak I managed to purchased ANOTHER 21054 to make up for it and made another bricklink order with the pieces that were inside the first box. Today I was re arranging my boxes with my toys and guess what, i freaking found the first one and now I have 2. I couldn’t find it because my dumb megablocks placed it upside down and as you know the lego architecture sets have a white bottom that’s extremely identical to the 2021 Star Wars wave with all white boxes and incidentally I had 4 Star Wars boxes around it. I feel like an idiot and don’t know what to say but in the meantime I went ahead and modded the 2nd 21054 to make it an all white bricked White House so now that I know I have extra spare parts here’s a picture comparing both sets. I can now see why the original build features grey bricks, the all white version despite it’s accuracy is really boring hahahah MOD Original Now that I’m happy that my old age forgot where i misplaced a huge boxed lego set in the garage i plan to use the east and west wing to display both 21006 and 21054 side to side and I’m extremely happy ;(

This is so beautiful, those changes put this mod OVER the top!!! the changes and bricks is day and night with the previous version, it’s better than the original lego build, August cannot come soon enough!!!! Congratulations 😭

Don’t tell me that, HAHAHAH lego lied to me, on their website it states pick a brick can be tracked and it takes 20 days, the lego pieces got shipped within 2-3 business days but i had an order of pick a brick and brick and pieces on the same cart and on may 28th and i received the brick and Pieces on thursday where as a pick a brick from may 24th is MIA still haha it’s all a waiting game.

I just thought Nexo knights took away from the Medieval elements and went full fantasy, it was obvious so they could do their own games, apps, shows to compete with other in house lines I think Aanchir I had a ramble agreeing to what your are saying but the website on my ipad crashed hehe, I speak from raising my kids versus what I had growing up and they love the entire ingenuity behind lego right now, my oldest twin prefers Mario sets, he’s used to building and using a table for the manual the whole lego life app makes sense to them where as I get mad because there’s no visible manual I can look at it haha. I just see patterns, my experience with toys is that I collect high end action figures, 1/18 model cars, 1/6 hot toys, high end robots and the lot and usually when a product line is not popular a company moves to the next big thing, that’s what I see with Lego, otherwise we would have season waves with Castle and Pirates for example. But listening to designer videos I am hurt by what I took away from it, they know it’s a niched community, yes adults like buying sets to do what ever they want to, you and I do for example for me it’s a dream come true, I grew up with 3.99 starter sets and the fact that I can buy sets that retail for more than 30.00 is a dream come true but they know it’s a limited deal since everyone who wants one will get it and then just sits there on the shelves, it’s the same way with the black seas barracuda, it was gone for 2 months now i always see the same stock everywhere at Legoland and a disney store. But to confirm my suspicions I see it on Bricks and pieces, I could legit buy all the mini figures there one brick at a time, where popular lines it’s not allowed to. That’s what I take away from it, I was shocked then went from kingdoms to Castle to nexo but just before kingdoms it was still castle for going back close to 6 years and different lines.

😭😭😭😭 it must taking the super scenic route

😳😳 nothing a few bricks can fix 🤣🤣🤣 that’s the fun part!!!

Thank you so much! I’m beginning to love it now!! I see everything in an asymmetrical type of way with lego sets I have never noticed before because of that!

I had an order June 1st that got delivered yesterday, fastest turn around time ever. I am confused though, Pick a Brick and Brick and pieces under the same roof? I thought pick a brick was a speedier service but since may 26th posted a tracking number and as of today you can’t track it no matter what, as a matter of fact I had 2 of those services in one order and guess what? I received my brick and pieces delivery than the Pick a Brick, like I mentioned I just thought they were faster.
