    I appreciate the linked video - the pics don't do it justice! This is stunning all round.

    I have to say, only two videos up so far with month's between them, but at this scale I wasn't sure there'd even be a second: https://www.youtube.com/@Jesse.vanDijk You can't fault his ambition.

    Honestly, I'm not too pushed about keeping them pristine, and they are not something I retrieve too often. So a box is better than a binder for my use case. Shoeboxes are perfectly sized for a fat stack. I store them by size, so one box has the tiny and small, one box has the mid-size city books, another three boxes of A4 size.

    Look up ZooBricks on YouTube if it's inspiration for enclosures you want. She is a ZooKeeper and is slowly building out a zoo.

    A question for anyone that has a permanent display - what building do you find best to place to the left and the right of Downtown Diner? Try as I might, nothing looks good to my eye. It's just so out of sync with everything, and the unusual left wall doesn't suit going beside anything, or being at the end of a row. Any ideas? (Pictures appreciated)

    I did wonder if this project was dead in the water, but no, it's bigger and better than ever. Have you got a group shot of all five modules together? (I found the four one already)
  7. Yoggington
    Bigger is (generally) better. It just means it ends up more expensive, which is where the complaints arise. That's more of a time-of-purchase consideration - I don't think I considered price at all when recalling a top 5. Although, if a model is very poorly priced in terms of value - that would probably rule it out. I don't imagine anyone nominating the X-Mansion for example.

    Lion Knight's Castle, Rivendell, Barracuda Bay - I feel like these three are obvious picks. Boutique Hotel, for some modular representation. And Spring Lantern Festival, because that pagoda roof is still the cleverest official build I've come across.

    Big yes to Paradisa. Big nope to facebook.

    The Lego van piques my interest. As nice as the big truck is, it's just far too big. If we get a similar concept in a far more compact version, I'll be all over it.

    I spent about €270 in Bricklink/PAB orders, and then got a batch of stickers printed for around €40 more. I did have a lot of the bricks I needed in my collection already - maybe 30-40%? I also didn't worry about getting the exact minifigures. I would estimate building this from scratch would set you back in the region of €450-€550. (all figures from back of a napkin/top of my head)

    @Wesley D Pictures here: https://imgur.com/a/PKBSxoB Minor niggle - the green framed ad board on the side is right where you want to pick it up by, and not secure enough to do so!

    It's an excellent build. The circular walls (and especially roof) are very mathematically pleasing. Not without it's flaws, there are a few things I will change. The biggest downside I'd say people should be aware of is that the building proper fills a 32x32 baseplate front to back, and then there's a further (optional) 16-deep courtyard to the front, so it may not suit a 'shelf city' alongside other modulars. Anything else is pretty minor. As for pictures, I recently moved house and have a newborn, so while I finally have the space to put all my modulars out at once - I am struggling to find time to build them. I'll grab a pic later in the week, but it is quite .. bare on the shelf, not integrated with the rest yet.

    If it's an Opera House you're after, I can heartily recommend this rebrickeable model by @CroissantBricks. I have bought & built it and it has secured a permanent home with my official modulars - it's that good.

    Before I saw the lower half of this, I thought it was an animated drawing. Woah, serious photography skills.

    You might enjoy this flooring technique. https://i.imgur.com/oa7Svzc.jpeg

    4 Creme Brulee - the use of pictures as portals is clever. 11 Kritch - I appreciate the unusual mash-up, and the dynamic posing. 5 Danny_Boy4 - Impressive balancing.

    Having thought long and hard, I've come to the conclusion that I'll be picking up the Botanical Garden next week instead of any of these. I like all five really, but I don't have space for the big ones Series Eight selection is looking like bad news for my wallet though - can I find space for both Dustmark Keep and the University?? The balloon is gorgeous too (and I will try to convert it to be a tensegrity build maybe).
  19. Yoggington
    Congrats on the selection, very well deserved! You've made one sale here at least, I'm sure there will be many more.

    The jigs is up guys, may as well fess up - he's onto us.
  21. Yoggington
    Pfft, its only a model.
  22. Yoggington
    A sad state of affairs that I knew exactly what you mean
  23. Yoggington
    First review I've seen
  24. Yoggington
    This would be my hope for any faction. A few variant Black Falcon torsos, a few for Wolfpack a few for... xyz.
  25. Yoggington
    Would love someone to remind me of that once they make it to PAB online.
