    Bricklink Series 6 crowdfunding goes live on 10/6.  I may be tempted to get the Sequoia set, but there are a few interesting ones as well ..

    I like the Sequoia set, a little pricier than I expected but a great looking set. I also like the Art Factory set - some fun functionality there.

    In standard sets, also looking forward to the GameBoy set coming up.

    Here is what I will be working on over the next 5 or 6 baseball games ... my box inspector has approved it.


    I may have to reconsider this set. I am not a Batman fan per say, but that set looks awesome and I do like the Lego Batman (Will Arnett) version.

    I think the Art Factory might be the best of the batch after taking some more time to review the sets.  I will probably pass on the Sequoia at the high price.

    Found the GameBoy today in a local store a few days early. Was excited to pick it up and should be a fun little build.

    We had the chance to check out the Relics: A New World Rises exhibition in Sydney this weekend. It was created by 2 guys that won Lego Masters Australia a few years ago and is full of really cool builds. We could’ve spent hours in there looking at all the little details.

    https://www.relicsexhibitions.com/

    Relics is set in a dystopian 2130. Humanity’s reign has ended, but the world is slowly recovering and showing signs of new life, one brick at a time.
    LEGO minifigures have risen from the debris to craft intricate civilisations inside discarded objects, each one inspired by the relic they now call home. A vintage refrigerator becomes a cryogenic health resort, a typewriter transforms into a newspaper headquarters, and a Volkswagen Beetle houses an energy revolution.

    I really loved the VW Beetle and the theatre district on the piano, but they were all amazing. 

    There was also an ATM with the bank inside, including a vault, an old Jansen amplifier with a band on stage, arcade games, bookshelves, a JetSki oasis, and so many more. Crazy creative builds.

    This is pretty cool gingerbread AT-AT and not a bad price at $60 considering the Star Wars tax Lego usually adds on.  



    Much better deal than the $1,000 Death Slice
