In fact, I would have preferred more repetition, but that was because I was trying to read a detective novel at the same time as I built; but it’s probably safe to bet not many folks will be doing that. While I found it confusing to build the base all in one go (so many slightly different lengths of plates!), designing it as a single section does have one big advantage: it’s remarkably sturdy, making the whole...

We even had kids guess LEGO color names,...

Coming off one of the best deals we’ve seen on the set, Amazon has further discounted the LEGO Icons Atari 2600 (10306) by 40%.

An interesting email came in today from LEGO where they are introducing a new buyback program called LEGO Brick Take Back. LEGO is basically buying back your preowned LEGO bricks and you can trade it in for LEGO e-Gift Cards. It seems that LEGO is buy bulk back and they are offering $6 per pound (USD) for conforming bricks which include LEGO bricks and elements that are fully disassembled and in good condition, LEGO Minifigures and Mini-dolls (no need to disassemble), and LEGO Baseplates. Your parts are then checked to meet eligibility criteria and their goal is to keep as many bricks in play as possible. It looks like this is a test run to see the best way to accomplish their agenda.
