Corgi alternate build from the 21376 Orange cat

I turned a cat into a dog! My largest alt build to date and I really wanted to try this out since the colors of the orange cat set reminded me of that of my friend’s corgi. I don’t do many animal/organic builds so this was a fun challenge even if it looks like an animatronic. Only one copy of the set is needed and no extra parts required. There are instructions on my rebrickable in my profile as always. Build uses 1674 out of 1755 parts but there are mainly large curve and smaller bits left over.

The final build measures around 35cm(14in) long from snout to tail, 16cm(6.5in) wide and, 23cm(9in) tall to the top of the ear. The build process and stability is about the same as the original build. The build is a bit harder since you aren’t making it bag by bag like an actual set.

The head can rotate and the mouth, ears, and tail can move to some degree. There is a hidden panel that stores a piece of poop and a fold out missile turret (I had to do something with the interior). This is probably a one off build since I’ll get back into Star Wars and transformers soon.

I turned my LEGO Groot into a LEGO Rocky.

Attention leaky space blobs: it's possible to turn the 76217 I am Groot set into a scary space monster.

Are modern Lego sets too fragile for actual play?

I’ve been a LEGO fan for decades, and lately I’ve been noticing something that kind of bothers me.

Back in the day, sets were definitely more “boxy” and less accurate, but they were rock solid. You could swoosh them, crash them, actually play with them like toys, and they’d hold together.

Now, modern sets look incredible. Way more detailed, clever techniques, better proportions. But a lot of them feel fragile.

My 5-year-old son has been playing with some newer sets, and they literally fall apart from the softest touch. Not rough play, just normal kid handling. Panels pop off, angled sections detach, small sub-assemblies come loose constantly.

My theory is that a lot of modern design relies on newer connection techniques like half-stud offsets, clips, tiles on minimal contact points. These are amazing for accuracy and aesthetics, but not great for durability.

That’s totally fine for adult display sets, since we don’t really play with them anyway. But it feels like that same design philosophy is creeping into kids’ sets too, where playability should be the priority.

I attached an example. This is from a set that’s clearly meant to be handled, but even light interaction makes parts come off.

What do you think?

UCS Gipsy Danger WIP - 5

Sorry for the wait, here is the next big step towards a complete head !

You may not see it directly, but there are several structural problems in the frame (you can see plates and bricks starting to disconnect at the back).

I plan on redoing the whole inner structure to only use technic frame pieces.

This way, it will be lighter and much, much stronger. Maybe I'll rework the cockpit too, idk.

Expect a lot of waiting for this to come, sadly. Brick order takes at least a week to arrive, and most of the time, a whole month. I also run on a relatively thin salary, so these projects eat cash like it's nothing.

see you soon for more !

Complete Frog Collection! (2026)

2026 has been a great year for Lego frog collectors! With the addition of Black (71861) and Bright Light Yellow (31220), were now up to a total of 18 unique frogs—19 of you count 'Old' and 'New' Pearl Gold.

I need to come up with a more creative way to display them, but I just received the last frog I was missing today!

Colourful Lego art on a big grey baseplate. Will be adding a frame to try and keep off the dust!

I have officially got my girlfriend hooked!

So my GF wasn’t really into Legos before she met me, but she started buying them for me for my birthday and also bought both of us some small botanical sets for Valentine’s Day so we could have Lego date nights.

And she eventually started an Amazon wish list for Lego sets She liked the look of.

And though she’s been a little reluctant to bite the bullet spend the money, today we went into target for a hairbrush, and after looking at some of the Lego sets, she found two that we’re on her list (one that was on sale, and one that is retiring) and I gave her that little nudge to buy them!

She’s like half excited half trying to think of a way to get me back for getting her to buy them. Lol

But I think she’s officially on the Lego bandwagon! Lol

I know I couldn’t hide my smile as we were walking to the register! Lol

Classic Space Mini Fighter

Fun little spare parts build - a Classic Space mini fighter!  It features wings that sweep back when not in flight.  This uses classic space pieces exclusively, but I did get a little creative with the building techniques. The front lasers use gray goblets - I can’t remember what set they came in (maybe a Castle set?), but they were pretty rare, so back in the day, me and my friends always thought they were extra-powerful, lol.  They also made great lightsabers in the pre-licensed era!
