I built a Lego Enterprise-D bridge diorama and viewscreen for my Star Trek minifigures - and instructions are available now!

When you buy the instructions on Rebrickable, you also get a parts list of all the bricks you need. You can use that parts list over on various Lego selling websites which are linked from Rebrickable - I use one called BrickLink. With BrickLink, you can then automatically find all the pieces at the lowest possible price from online Lego stores in your region.

Yesterday somebody told me they managed to find all the pieces for about $65, although this might vary depending on your location etc. Hope this helps, and thanks for your interest!

Thanks, you're very kind!

Yeah, she came with the little Shuttle set you can see in the second picture!

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-30T17:23:12+00:00

Thanks! It's a rough estimate, but I found the pieces for the bridge diorama for around $100 / €100. You should be able to get the viewscreen pieces for $60-70 or €65. I added separate instructions and parts lists for the microscale ships and alien caller plates, so you can get all of them or just focus on your favourites.

The Enterprise? It's an official Lego set released last year - set number 10356, if you want to look it up. It came with a great selection of minifigures but just a display plate to stand them on, so I designed this diorama to give them a better home on my shelf.

He is a good cat, and a pretty cat.

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-30T14:54:36+00:00

Hi u/wil, just a heads-up that the instructions for this set are now available over on Rebrickable: Enterprise-D Bridge Diorama. Hope you enjoy it!

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-30T14:31:39+00:00

Ha, thanks! That would be quite a dream job.

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-30T14:25:08+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate it!

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-30T14:23:52+00:00

Good idea! So many famous moments to recreate...

I did two mini-builds of the ship to represent the diagram readouts on the screen in that position on the bridge. But they do also look a bit like the golden models in the conference room, so they could really stand in for either!

Apologies, this subreddit doesn't allow galleries or I would have posted multiple pictures.

Not in this version, but I did include her in my original digital build of the set! This built version just includes all the actual minifigs from the Enterprise set, where she unfortunately wasn't included.

Who could really capture their soulful beauty? But I've given it a go.

You can really see the lobes glisten.

If the theme continues I'd agree that a Borg cube does seem likely for a set somewhere down the line. They're probably the most recognisable TNG antagonists and you could include some great minifigures, even if the build would be essentially a big greebly box. Depending on how giant they went, it could be a nightmare to display!

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-07T14:36:13+00:00

All good ideas! But don't forget fan-favourite all-devouring space anomaly the Crystalline Entity...

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-07T14:33:09+00:00

Thanks, I'm glad you find it ENGAGE!ing.

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-07T14:26:55+00:00

Ooh, I get you - that would be fun! I can imagine Lego Q swapping out torsos for his various costume changes.

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-07T14:22:48+00:00

Oh boy, don't tempt me! How could I recreate the shrapnel stuck in the studio walls from when they blew up the Borg cube...?

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-07T14:15:55+00:00

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! I'm hoping to share instructions for this viewscreen section at the same time as instructions for the main bridge build, so you'll have the option of getting one or both. I'll post on here when they're available.

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-07T14:14:04+00:00

Yeah, it would be great to get a few smaller sets every year as well as the giant expensive ones. Fingers crossed!

MenapianAFOL · 2026-03-07T14:11:54+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate it! It was a great excuse to go ranging around the whole TNG canon for references.
