I really enjoyed tuning into the @lofigirl and @le I really enjoyed tuning into the @lofigirl and @lego collab for chill beats to build LEGO to.

I've spent a lot of my life having lofi hip-hop in the background at work, or building LEGO and the vibes are just immaculate ✨

If only we got an official LEGO Lofigirl minifigure or mini set!

LEGO Winter Village sets are officially inflation- LEGO Winter Village sets are officially inflation-proof! 

With the reveal of 10325 Alpine Lodge (hit the link in bio to learn more), I was really surprised that LEGO managed to maintain it's US$99.99 pricetag.

This is now the 6th year running that the LEGO Winter Village set has been priced at $99.99, and it's especially impressive this year with the price of everything going up.

Good job, LEGO for ensuring families and long-time fans don't get priced out of the annual Winter Village tradition 👏

Spoiler: the toddler won 😰

Here's the exact sequence of events as it happened 😱

How's your day going? ☺️
Here's a look at the exclusive minifigures from th Here's a look at the exclusive minifigures from the UCS Venator, plus the commemorative Clone Wars 20th anniversary brick!

Phase II Captain Rex makes a long-awaited return, and while he's sorely lacking a cloth kama, this is still a really good, and clean version of everyone's favourite Clone Trooper.

A younger Admiral Yularen makes his second appearance as a minifigure with his signature stache and Republic uniform.

While minifigures aren't the main reason to pick up a UCS set, these two really complement the UCS Venator, and will make a fine addition to anyone's LEGO Star Wars collection!

Full review of the UCS Venator coming soon, so keep an eye out on the blog for it!

Special thanks to LEGO for sending this review copy over!

Got to check out the new @lego DreamZzz experience Got to check out the new @lego DreamZzz experience at @legolanddiscoverycentremelb! It's running during the school holidays until 8 October and there's a few new fun DreamZzz-themed activities to do, including the premiere of the new 4D movie Z-Blob Rescue Rush! 

As annual passholders, we got to check out the Pyjama Party launch which was quite fun.

A great way to check out DreamZzz sets and it's a fun afternoon if you're looking for something fun to do with your kids during the school holidays.

An invitation to a traditional Japanese tea ceremony in the @lego Tranquil Garden (10315).

If you can find this set on sale, Tranquil Garden is a fantastic pickup, and hands down one of the most aesthetically pleasing sets of 2023.

The Geisha is from LEGO Minifigures Series 4 and a great addition to the set.
