In these opening I usually make some terrible pun or riff of a quote from the sets subject matters. Today though I'm not gonna do that. Today bad Dad jokes and puns are avoided in my intro. However regarding the rest of my review, it is inevitable ..read more

Farming equipment is not new to Technic. One of the very first Technic sets, even before the theme got its official name, is 851-1 Tractor. In the following year, some more tractors were released, and the 8862-1 Backhoe Grader from 1989 had a harvester for a b-model. It would take until 2006 for the next farm set: 8281-1 Mini Tractor, and more followed. In 2022, we got the first John Deere set, with 42136-1 John Deere 9620R 4WD Tractor, with 42157-1 John Deere 948L-II Skidder appearing the next year. And now we have the 3rd set in the series: 42168-1 John Deere 9700 Forage Harvester, a h ..read more

Birds! If you read my White Rabbit review, you are probably aware I am a fan of our feathered friends, especially Australian variants; so I was pretty excited to get my hands on this set. I had a pet budgie growing up (parakeet for you Americans ?) who was blue, so a blue Aussie bird LEGO set aimed at adults? Yes please! Lets see if it lives up to my high expectations ..read more

I've already reviewed 3 MOCs from the medieval era, but I'm not ready to travel back to our age just yet, as a new Partial Alternate MOC caught my eye. It's been 3 years since the release of 21325-1 Medieval Blacksmith, and there are numerous Alternate MOCs listed for this beauty on Rebrickable. Some use parts from just this set, while others throw in additional sets, often 31120-1 Medieval Castle. MOC-173041 Medieval Sawmill however is the first to use 2 copies of the LEGO Ideas set. I found the Medieval Blacksmith to be a great build, so I'm curious to find out if doubling the parts will do ..read more

When it comes to technology, I have sort of a split personality. I simply love modern technology. I couldn’t imagine a life without a small rectangle in my pocket that can give me all the information I need, show me movies, or have contact with people from all over the world. Heck, I wouldn’t have come out of my Dark Ages if it wasn’t for sites like Peeron and later Rebrickable. Without exaggerating I can say 98% of my social contacts are done digitally, with people from the USA to Australia, and a lot of countries in between ..read more

Time for some more Mini MOC Maddness! Where my aim is to have fun building smaller MOCs, and encourage others to do the same. It is always impressive just how many alternate builds can be submitted for a single set. How many different ways people can come up with of rearranging the same small pile of parts. I also really enjoy getting to know designers who make smaller MOCs. This time I will be looking at the Creator 3 in 1 set 31133-1 White Rabbit. If you have a good memory you would know that I already did a review of this set last year, but I think it is about time I traded my Cockatoo for ..read more

For a long time, I haven't paid much attention to the Super Mario theme. Not that I don't like it; the sets look great with a lot of bright colors, clever builds and playability. But aside from playing some games about 30 years ago, as well as annoying store employees while playing on a Nintendo 64 display model (remember the amazing new concept of 3D graphics in Nintendo games!), I have little knowledge of the Mario Universe. In addition, most sets seem to be an expansion on the starter sets, featuring stages for the electronic Mario, Princess Peach and Luigi to run through, something that I ..read more
