    My two cents, with the following context: I am a very open-minded person, from Portugal, which is fairly open and relaxed in what is known worldwide as "the woke things". Same-sex mariage and abortion are allowed by law and we are currently discussing how same-sex adoption should be allowed. Not if, but how. I strongly believe that sexuality should not be the thing that defines you as a person. It plays a part, but it is not THE thing. That being said: 1) I understand that LEGO stays away from those lines as we stay away from fire. After all, they are a highly visible company which makes "children" toys for profit. 2) Do we really need this to be an issue in every single item that is placed on the market? The marvel of LEGO is that we can always add those features to our builds, however we want them. I sure did...

    Either it is awesome, or it sucks hard. My heart wishes for the first, but I am very afraid of the latter...

    I kind like it, to be honest. It should fit nicely with my WV. I am really, really, really curious with and afraid of the main set. I can feel it flopping in the air tonight!

    I am waiting with high expectations for the 40746 Santa Delivery Truck, even more than the 10339. It seems weird not to have in photos in antecipation. Part of the fun is the blurry photos and I feel like a kid that was not given a lollipop :P

    This is awesome! I'm in love with it! The "Forbidden Connection" in one of the billboards is a very nice touch. Admirable!

    Hello, Can someone be so kind and help me identify the part used on the tower, below the antena with 2 flags? It is what ressembles a pearl gold 5x5 radar with spiral, but I can't find it on bricklink. https://www.flickr.com/photos/galaktek/48963735288/sizes/l/ Many thanks in advance

    I gave him the right to inherit the collection, not the bricks themselves. Those are still under my domain

    I bought it for my mother on mothers day a week ago. She an avid orchid collector and zero experience in Lego building. It was finished in 2hours and placed proudly among the other orchids, and it didn't felt out of place.

    Hello, I'm hugore from Portugal Been away from Lego for a few years, but since I became a father the seed that was sown in the 90's has decided to germinate. I started my Lego collection in the end of the 80's (I'm from 1985) and I still have all my sets from that era. Together with my wife, we assembled a short 25k pieces collection of parts, and we are looking forward to expand our collection. It is amazing to see the new building technics, parts and colours that we could only dream in the 90's. We are still learning and discovering what happened in the last 25 years in this world and we are in for a lot of study and fun. Let's go!

    Hi, As my son is now 1 year old, i decided to present him his mom's and mine Lego collection from our juvenille days (in the 1990's). We had some old and bent Billy frames from IKEA and used, after a bit of research and a trip to IKEA, several Stanley 1-93-980 and 1-93-978 to store the pieces. We could get each of this elements for 9€, which made our decision easier since we needed to buy 20. A part of the end result can be seen in the link below (image way to big for direct attach) 1-93-978 are particularly useful to store larger plates or leaves. I can fit 46 leaves in each drawer without forcing them, which is quite good. In lenght, both can store up to 1x20 https://imgur.com/a/h1EPm31 Parts are separated by color and function. We still have a long way to go, but I am so far impressed by the Stanley elements. I think I will remove the drawers, to add more space for more elements per Billy Frame. I always said that becoming a father to be able to play with Lego again, without being frowned upon or being called a manchild. The dark ages are over! Cheers
