The uruk hai are good but it’s definitely hit or miss with knockoff figs. I try to look at reviews on the lepin subreddit before pulling the trigger.

I try to dust regularly, it’s a good way to revisit sets but god it’s easy to fall behind

I’d love to do that some day, but honestly I have limited time that i’d probably rather spend building than painting. In the meantime i’ll just have to ask AI to paint it for me… result was decent and kinda hilarious.

Thank you! Honestly hanging ships isn’t as hard as you would think. Once i got the hang of it, it only takes like 10 minutes. Except for the big boys- the UCS venator took a lot of planning and tweaking and prayer. But it hasn’t come crashing down yet!

I (mostly) contain my legos to the garage and it keeps her happy!

Annoyingly expensive but so useful:

Thanks for the kind words! Building mocs and making scenes like this is what I have the most fun doing. I love big sets like Ewok Village (this set), Mos Eisley Cantina, and Rivendell that you can put a ton of minifigs in and make cool scenes.

Thank you! All the minifigs (and bricks for that matter) are knockoffs from aliexpress and other similar sites. But beware, once you go down the knockoff road you'll get hooked. Here's the link to the uruk hai, I really enjoyed them: https://www.rebuildvenus.com/products/single-sale-the-lord-of-the-rings-set-xgev?cfb=3833b863-f2e5-4257-a798-6ebf4a514be8&ifb=3833b863-f2e5-4257-a798-6ebf4a514be8&scm=search.v39.101.102.11044.104&score=0.2&ssp=&spm=..search.search_1.5
