Friends is a theme that is usually not on my radar, save for sets like the Downtown Flower and Design Stores (which I picked up for the parts), the new Cafe, and the Community Kitchen. All of which would serve very well in City layouts and MOCs. As much as I like many of the offerings from Friends, I’ve never been one for mini dolls. By no means am I the target demographic for the figures. Leave me to my undercover cops and magazine mascots.

What is the...

ode to adventure A finalist in the third series of the BrickLink Designer Program, The Lost City is no small nod to adventurers: it’s a 3,500+ parts ode to exploration, crammed full of all the best hues of green and grey. The Build Process The build process was less tedious than I generally expect from a set of this size. Since it’s ruins, there were always small variations with every iteration of a design. 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...
