That is an extremely nice set!!! Love the color contrast of red and white!! The pirates never stood a chance!

Wait so has anybody bought this set in Europe? That’s a good point Lacdaran, I was happy with 2 but 3 sets for each build 😭

It’s a lose lose for me either way, it’s happened before with Apple Pay 100% of the time never with PayPal though, I had like 10 orders around the same time and I have seen the charge, I’m curious now because the last time this happened they legit sent out 2 orders so now I’m tempted 🤔🤔🤔 lucky for me this order includes my Black Falcons torsos!

Same with me I only have 1 repeat so far!!! Are we willing to accept trades for other cards in this forum?

So things have happened with Bricks and Pieces recently that has me irate about this current situation: They are trying to charge me for an order I already Received last month saying there’s a problem with the payment? LOL I got an order with half the pieces in a totally different color, I just realized this but I didn’t notice it then, I used a manual to get the Element ID number which I typed in the website, Lego group stated it was me who did it that, I’m trying to fight with Lego because they are telling me it was user error when I know in fact I literally got it from the Harry Potter manual and input as such which leads me to the next problem: Lego B&P updates the element ID’s numbers from older sets to match the new ones, I was trying to match and analyze a recent order and noticed half the numbers changed making it impossible to see what was I originally ordered. They also altered a few bricks because of this. I brought this up regarding my last order and got shut down, aside from this and the fact they want me to update a payment method on an order place April 8th makes me want to point fingers and blame Lego wholeheartedly on this. The reason I’m making a big deal about was because the lego rep stated that the light grey was something I did when there’s even proof that I got half the same exact lego pieces in Medium Grey, so for example i have a total of 4 4x12 plates in medium grey, i received 2 in medium and 2 in light grey, then everything else is half and half also. With that said though I’m obsessed with the new Gryffindor Sword!!! Too bad it’s a licensed product so far hehehe it’s worthy of a King(castle series)

I’ve been lucky to visit Cartagena, I completely understand what you mean! One of the few only colonial cities left untouched in the Americas!!! You should visit Portobelo, you’ll have the same lasting impression except Francis Drake had his burial at the Sea there!!! Every gold from Cartagena ended up going to Portobelo before sailing to back through Hispaniola and finally Spain!

Just snagged the digital manual from a different region, WOWOW I’m gonna have a blast! With that said though I never realized despite the numerous amount of times looking at the pics, that there’s an entire side with moss/grass on one side! now I definitely plan on buying 2 just to make a symmetrical castle hehe

To be honest looks like something out of a Legoland catalog from back in the day!!! Amazing build! That bug to suddenly build is contagious!

Great minds think a like, I just received my B&P order with these replacements in mind!! The only problem I ran into is that the sand green drilling piece that sits close to the top is not in grey but in metallic silver, I just ordered the half sized tops used in the older 2018-2020 sets and it was golden!

I wish we got an extra candelabra 😢

I mean I love closed lines, all is there to do is just add chambers of secrets styled bases for that line. But damn i know he lied when he said the sand green towers were a “personal” touch I haha we all know is just for the “anniversary” lmao

B&P is soooo new to me, I am just used to go to local pop and mom lego stores and Bricklink or BrickOwl. THank you for whoever put that list up!!! Managed to snag me some crocodiles for my Pirates sets!!!

My target usually slacks off on these, I have a better chance of snagging one at Legoland but no one knows stuff about Lego there so asking questions is always an Huh!? Lolol. Would love to have some good insight

For those who really want to know Lego Creator 31120 Medieval Castle B&P are out in the US Store 🤣🤣🤣

Anyone noticed the sets meant to be out in august already listed on B&P in the us? I am looking at you Lego 31120 Creator 3 in 1 Knights Castle 🤣🤣🤣 now I need the manual….

Thank you so much!!! It’s my only motivation considering is really the latest we have gotten in regards to anything Imperial since 2015!!! It was the only reason I did it, like Stoertebricker pointed, after doing more research and studying up imperial manuals going back to the 1990’s I never realized that lego sets were never Symmetrical, they always went for an Asymmetrical design so now I am getting more ideas to change up the second floor or divvy up the main building for storage. I placed a Lego Bricks and PIeces order for interior decoration mainly inspired by the Lego Kingdoms Joust and sets on what would be perfect for the weapons storage and rooms!!!

It’s confusing, I get nostalgic everytime I go to a Legoland, I get emotional seeing the Medieval decorations, I had my kids birthday party there this saturday and just seeing the rides and dark rides I love it. Thanks to the theming my kids call the castle theming “forest” look daddy I want to build a castle but they don’t get all that etc. I’m sad like everyone on the churning on and off of the Pirates/Castle Theme but still at the end of the day i miss the regular waves, more than anything, buying the Chess sets with perfect figures to upgrade your army building, the Pirates of the barracuda bay helped with the right amount of pirates that could be used with the only 3 we got in the Creator 3 in 1 set, but same thing happens with castle, the medieval blacksmith only gave us 2 knights and so will the creator 3 in 1 castle. Can’t really complain though, now it’s easier to buy the knights from both sets through bricks and pieces but still hehe I wish more were included

would harry potter be close enough

that looks amazing!!! time for me to trial and error!

That’s and amazing haul!!! I’m still happy we can order any pirate and castle pieces!! Any chance I get I’ve been stocking up!!! But it’s fantastic! So I noticed that Pick a Brick has a turnaround time of 3-4 business days versus the average 22 days from brick and Pieces, I must have ordered the same pieces before from BP yet I’m surprised at how my 200 brick order from PB!!!

That’s an insanely clean build!!! fun fact did you know the normal horse mantle fits in the new style horses? The head armor piece is the only one that doesn’t haha, I’ve been toying with the idea of changing my old horses with new ones and got curious haha

To add on what childe_Roland said, they also have a digital pre screening process when you submit it through their website, if it passes you can get your licensed piece no questions asked but we don’t know the threshold since it’s random, I’ve done from 1 to 3 pieces and still got it denied. I did it from the Lego Mario sets when my kids lost actual parts from some sets and I was trying to be the good dad by replacing lost Lego so I ended up bricklink them. If you really really miss an important piece calling them is the best option since they have the magic tools to grant your request. If they don’t have it they will replace it with a generic piece, etc.

I’ve also did a minor MOD to the 21054 White House, I hated how they used the grey bricks just for variety’s sake but not really accurate, I just tried to match up the windows on the ground level LOL Due to the scale could only fit 2 windows The real White House has symmetrically 2 more windows from the center, both versions only have 1 on each side, I think in lego form they did the best they could since making accurate makes it out of proportion, I’m really split if I should widen the windows, another pet peeve was how the side windows never aligned with the front and back so i also made them match up, it’s an easy fix, don’t know why lego never bothered for symmetry at least North Portico To my horror you can also add the east and west wing to the 21006!!! This is just to see how they would look like but it’s more accurate to size versus the version we see in 21054 I took the set you see in the pictures above apart because I wanted to modify it again, ended up ordering more bricks from bricks and pieces for the windows

Amazing set!! I always wondered what’s the big Nono mixing up blue coats and red coats? LOL

Uuuu sticker prints!! I’ve watched her do some work on cups and do shirt prints and I was like huh, what’s stopping me from trying to do prints on the machine i know it’s possible to cut sails since she has cut fabric before but i was curious if I had to be a graphic designer to make the machine learn the imperial pattern design, but I know the stickers are quality and would look almost identical to the original since they are expensive! I was curious to see if anyone has done it before but for sure I think it’s doable to print designs on sails since I’ve seen her make custom made t shirts for clients and a lightbulb turned on in my head! Just wasn’t sure about the stickers
