79011: Dol Guldur Ambush

Leave a comment

I bought this small set at Brickfair this year and put it together during a WAMALUG meetup.

Dol Guldur Ambush 2

I’m not a huge fan of the play elements, but the minifigs are great and there are some fun elements in the structure itself. The build was simple, but the layers, mix of colors, and variety of shapes make it look complex.

LEGO Advent Calendar

LEGOAdvent1

I hosted a LEGO Advent calendar swap on swap-bot last month and got an amazing package back 🙂 I decided to assemble it each day, as I opened each compartment. As my partner had ordered/organized each day by type and color, the result was quite interesting. It wasn’t until about halfway that I realized it was an actual set I was assembling.

It does have wings that flap, a tab in the front you can pull so that it will roll along, and a spinning table in the middle. I have a feeling this is not exactly an Elrond-approved council. This is what it was supposed to look like:

Another Hogwarts Castle

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Castle #4842

Another in the long tradition of Hogwarts castles, this one is more like a roundup of important rooms and a few nice sections not already featured in sets.

Harry Potter: Knight Bus #4866

Even though I already own a Knight Bus (or two) I had to buy the new Knight Bus set. There are some things I like better in the new version and some things I like better in the older version.

Castle: Dwarves’ Mine #7036

I ended up buying the Dwarves’ Mine from a WAMALUG member because I’ve been wanting it for ages and he had a good price for it. I had fun putting it together today (Christmas) to be sure all the parts were there. It was a really fast build (an hour and a half or so). I think I spent more time playing with the parts while building than I did actually building. LOL

Pirates: Loot Island #6241

And because I was on a Pirate kick, I put together another Pirate set I bought from WalMart long ago on sale: Loot Island. I liked the variety of minifigs and elements in there. You’ve got the pirate and the marine and the alligator and the shipwrecked guy all in one.

Imperial Flagship #10210

I ended up buying the Imperial Flagship. I’ve been wanting it for more than a year and there was a special deal where you got extra LEGO Rewards points if you bought at the beginning of December. So I broke down and bought it. I blame my love of Horatio Hornblower 🙂 It took me about 6 hours of leisurely building to put it together (including checking e-mail, eating dinner, etc. So probably more like 5).

My lovely friend elle311 found the Target Bullseye gift card and gave this to me for the holidays! Thanks so much! It was fun to put together 🙂

December Project #1

For my just-the-things December project, I thought I’d put together all my LEGO sets which hadn’t yet been assembled.

I haven’t been much into collecting the special collectable minifigs, because the cost and effort of tracking every single one down isn’t worth it for me. But I’ve bought some randomly and I’ve bought the ones I know I have uses for in MOCs off BrickLink. I got this box on Friday:
