Earlier this August, BrickCon.PH 2025 brought together LEGO fans from all over Metro Manila, Philippines for a weekend of displays, games, and cosplays. Organized by the Brick Traders Community (BTC), BrickCon.PH provided a venue for fans to display their creations and collections, and spend time together as a community. Add LEGO treasure hunting in the mix, and it was definitely time well spent for everyone who attended. Here’s a quick run-down on what I loved about the event along with some photos of the builds I saw. The Displays BTC is well known for its dedicated collectors, and they came in full force. A minifig wall showcased minifigures from a wide range of LEGO themes, including Disney, Star Wars, Minecraft, Nexo Knights, various series of Collectible Minifigures, and Ninjago. Among the set collectors, Star Wars was especially popular, with minifig armies and ships on display. There were also many vehicles (land,...

As BrickNerd’s resident cursed build expert, I was given the sacred duty of… having fun with LEGO One Piece 75638 Battle at Arlong Park. What’s so cursed about it? LONG ARM LUFFY! I bet he can always reach to top shelf Look at all the fun things this minifigure can do! But let’s take a quick peek at the set before we get into the full fig funkiness.
