Chill build from the other day I am Groot (76217) This was a fun build not too complicated and ideal for a evening lego session. Looks good (cute) when built and captures the character well only with only two minor points. The joints aren't that stiff but once posed they are OK and it was mainly the head causing the problems, with it being heavy and being held with one ball joint but as I said it's a minor issue, not as bad as the wall-e head issue. The other minor point is the amount of stickers for the size of the set its a bit high but they are all needed so again a very minor issue. All issues are forgotten once built and you see what a good job they did with recreating a tape and no wonder they get you to build it first. All in all a fun build and a fun result. #lego #groot #afol #chillbuild #legostagram #instalego https://www.instagram.com/p/CiLS6Zora5k/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Carnage Bust Quick Review Not much to say on this one. If you've built any of the busts/helmets in this range you know what you are in for, and that's pleasant build with the end result being a nice shelf piece. Although each one has their own variation on the build I recommend leaving a gap of a few weeks between building different busts. This especially applies to if you have just built the venom bust as there's little difference between the two. I always enjoy these builds and are great chill builds as they can be done in one sitting and you don't need to be an expert to build them. #afol #lego #legocarnage #legoaddict #chillbuild #legobust https://www.instagram.com/p/CYElBXfIfZz/?utm_medium=tumblr

Lego Infinity Gauntlet Quick Review I've been waiting for this one to come on offer since it was released and finally there have been a couple of discounts just recently. To be honest even paying full price you aren't going to be disappointed, its a nice build and looks nice once finished and is a great display piece. The two main colour tones they use complement each other fantastically. The main feature and selling point of this set is the amount of gold coloured lacquered pieces which must be the most they have used in one set (I believe there is a monkey kid set that also uses a lot of gold pieces but that is beyond my knowledge). Anyway the gold just looks great and I love the lacquered pieces but hope they limit the use of them, which might sound odd but although I love the effect it's not perfect yet they still come with two flaws. One flaw is bigger parts fall foul of uneven colour distribution which can be seen close up and two they are very easy to scratch even just via normal delivery conditions. These two negatives are only an issue close up once on the shelf you aren't going to notice them. Mainly because you will be thinking to yourself 'that looks so cool'. The posable fingers look great in any position and the designers have done a great job with them, even if they do look a little skinny again a minor point and they could have finished a couple of small areas by including a couple of extra small gold pieces. Any criticisms are small on a set that looks spot on and definitely one worth adding to your collection. #lego #afol #legibility #chillbuild #installed #legoaddict #legomarvel #infinitygauntlet #legoavengers #legogauntlet https://www.instagram.com/p/CXbcRQbITXn/?utm_medium=tumblr
