Are you ready for Halloween in Summer? For us fans of the spooky season, it is better than Christmas in July! And coming this July, you will be able to pick up the spooktacular 21341 Disney Hocus Pocus: The Sanderson Sisters’ Cottage. I was humbled to have been chosen by the BrickNerd family to receive this set early! The Sanderson’s cottage shown next to my haunted mansion from last year Every year for the past three Halloweens, I have made a custom haunted house MOC, and thankfully the BrickNerd crew were acutely aware of this. Frankly, it has become my favorite build I look forward to every year, not only because I enjoy getting into the Halloween spirit but because my children also share in my passion and excitement which makes it that much more worth it. Ghostly Presence Let’s be honest: for any Halloween season enthusiast, the LEGO sets within...

As a LEGO builder, what do you do to challenge yourself when you’ve already built an entire country at 1:650 scale, made a detailed replica of First Century Jerusalem, and have models of several of the world’s most famous landmarks on display at a museum? Well, you could always revisit an older project, and expand it to a behemoth piece consisting of a million bricks. Rocco Buttliere with Phase I of his massive Ancient Rome project. Photo © Rocco Buttliere, MMXXIII Regular BrickNerd readers may recall a previous article of mine, where I described the process of creating an event kit to mark the tenth anniversary of our annual Norwegian AFOL event, På Kloss Hold, in Trondheim. That kit was of course designed by Rocco Buttliere, who happens to be a good friend of mine and therefore my go-to guy for anything microscale. Rocco has a degree in architecture and since...

Although this article may seem like a planned successor to my original "This Old Track" article discussing ways of maintaining and restoring 9V metal track, I have to admit that it is not. Rather, it is the consequence of an experiment that got out of control! This experiment was simply an investigation of every LEGO 12V Train system power accessory. I wanted explore how each worked, in particular, I wanted to experience what it was like to setup and use the modular brick form-factor control panel switches. I have always admired from afar these elements, and never having owned any myself, invested in buying at least one of every type to finally discover their operational characteristics. The 12V LEGO train system offered a variety of fabulous power operated accessories—dramatically elevating the operational experience and expanding the play-value of LEGO trains In order to really appreciate the operation of these power accessories,...

The Japan Brickfest (JBF) is Japan’s largest international fan-organized LEGO event and an official LEGO networking event since 2017. More than 270 LEGO lovers - kids, teens, and adults - from all over the world have exhibited their MOCs throughout the years. It was held yearly until COVID shut Japan’s borders and forced everyone to stay home. This 2023 it was held June 10-11 at the Canadian Academy at Rokko Island, Kobe, Japan. This is my third time attending JBF, having previously attended in 2018 and 2019. This year, though, was my first time attending JBF without my LUGmates from the Philippine LEGO Users Group and staging a solo display. Here’s my account of what went on in JBF this time around: Day 1: Experiencing Japan and Setting Up I arrived at Kobe from Manila via Osaka late on the evening of the 8th, so I wasn’t able to do much...
