Lego building as a hobby (1 Viewer)

[DaveXA]

So, it’s been a while since I last did some Lego building and I’ve decided to get back into it as a hobby and I spent the last week rebuilding some of my kids’ sets and it’s been pretty fun. My wife wants to buy me a good one for Christmas and I’m looking forward to it. I can’t be the only one here into Legos. Anyone else here doing it? Post pics if you got em!

Yea, the Falcon was my 3rd model. I got it during the pandemic lockdown after realizing I had $800 of points on my AMEX. That thing helped me keep my sanity.

I think the Space Shuttle and Optimus Prime are my favorites.

While I haven't built a lego set in a few centuries, I do enjoy the show Lego Masters...

Those are excellent, but what I find most impressive is that your kids didn't lose half of the pieces!

Yeah, there actually were a handful of pieces missing, but the sets I posted were mostly intact. There was probably a set or two I don't recall or have instructions to because I have probably about 700 extra pieces. They're mostly pretty common pieces, which makes id difficult.

My kids are all grown and came over for Thanksgiving and they were fascinated with the sets and brought back memories. Most of the sets were from between 2000 and 2012. So, they were all in a big plastic bin for over 10 years, lol.

Yeah, always wanted one, but nope, I can't afford that.

My wife is getting a really nice set for me for Christmas, but I don't know what it is yet. I can't wait!
