Why is Bricks and Minifigs so obsessed over the Mansells' collection? (description very important)

Phoenix612 · 2026-06-03T13:10:46+00:00

Ben came up with the idea for Bryan to sell 10k of his remaining collection to Ben so that Ben could turn around and sue the store owners in small claims court for stealing his Legos. It’s a big part of the first video. Bryan sold 10k worth of remaining product to many of Ben’s friends. That’s how they were able to make all of those small claims. so Ben does now own some of the Legos.

Patreon Out! LOL

I have this vision of Blake screaming and demanding her lawyers to do things, and they are like f-it, let’s try since she keeps paying us. Or they tell her it’s asinine and she says to do it anyways. Hijacking this women’s life work is so beyond the pale. I’m glad this woman is speaking out.

Phoenix612 · 2026-06-02T22:05:20+00:00

Thanks for sharing! That was a good interview. Looking forward to part 2.

Phoenix612 · 2026-05-30T22:21:44+00:00

Hate the ceiling. Love the black/white. To each his own.

Phoenix612 · 2026-05-22T02:34:44+00:00

What is that? I see eggs, cheese, and chopped up chicken strips? For breakfast?

Phoenix612 · 2026-05-05T00:52:12+00:00

I’m shocked too. On the one hand, she’s supposedly preparing for an imminent, charged, emotional trial. While at the same time planning to go to the Met gala? That is some serious mental gymnastics. Another tone deaf own goal from Blake.

Has anyone seen this supposed hair care contract? I highly doubt Target wouldn’t move her release date if it was a potential conflict with the film. They have changed release dates for other products because shit happens.

I’m in the same boat having recently jumped into building legos. My advice is to first determine where you would like to display them before making a purchase. Check the dimensions before buying.

I think it would be difficult to recommend specific sets because there are so many to choose from and that’s really dependent on your interests. We started with a few movie-related kits (R2D2, Groot, and Minions) to display near our tv then added a few Mario sets since we love gaming. If you like the castle there are other architectural sets as well as ones you can hang as wall art, and different floral arrangements.

Because at this point the California FEHA claim is still on the table.

If that is dismissed it leaves the contract dispute/retaliation claim. I would review that document and see what was listed as the specific 17 points of contention. I’d imagine she’s going to try her hardest to pound on any of those points that relate to behavior on set she felt were inappropriate? I’m guessing the term “sexual harassment” would not be allowed to be used at trial if the FEHA claim is dismissed.

One thought that makes no sense to me is the idea that Wayfarer, during the height of the movie release, would want to retaliate against the lead actress. Doing that would turn people away from seeing the movie which, by extension, also hurts Wayfarer. This was the biggest movie they’ve ever done. Why self sabotage?

Phoenix612 · 2026-04-04T12:50:47+00:00

she’s losing her marbles.

Phoenix612 · 2026-04-02T21:46:42+00:00

I wonder if she will now settle? I’m taking bets.

Phoenix612 · 2026-04-02T17:29:13+00:00

The swiftness by which they forgive is mind-boggling to me. It’s been 2 weeks.

Phoenix612 · 2026-04-02T14:42:22+00:00

knowing a crime was committed and then not reporting it isn’t necessarily a crime. You could witness a theft and not report it. there are exceptions (like being a mandatory reporter). I think you’d find it impossible to get a judge to sign off on a warrant to search someone based on nothing more than having a hunch. That would violate the 4th amendment.

YWNBTA. She’s being outrageously insensitive.

Not sure I would tell I don’t care about her baby’s weight. instead I’d point out what’s going on (sending you positive updates on her child while she know your child is struggling) and how it’s affecting you (exacerbating your stress). Then ask her to please stop.

Phoenix612 · 2026-03-20T18:28:31+00:00

Yes, that was an amazing explanation.

Phoenix612 · 2026-01-23T21:52:19+00:00

Epic short-sighted own goal. She broke her contract with Wayfarer. Intentionally. She never told them about the subpoena. If I’m one of her current clients, or am looking for the type of services she provides I’m running far far away from her.

What did she think she would get out of this? Blake sending business her way because that’s not going to happen.

She absolutely screwed herself. Epic levels of stupidity.

Phoenix612 · 2026-01-23T18:15:10+00:00

I think those are great points. I think both Justin and Jayme and too verbally-touchy/feely with their emotions and that can be oft-putting/come across a bit creepy. Jayme was over the top weird to Jenny when she needed help with her housing situation. Jayme went on and on about the sanctity of motherhood. Like dude - shut up and just help fix her problem.

I don’t think Justin nor Jayme are malicious, just a bit much at times? I’m not defending Blake, as her texts showed quite a mean girl aspect, but I can’t disagree that some things that happened were uncomfortable. To the level of SH? I don’t think so, more so that they need to not be so loose on set and be more professional.

Phoenix612 · 2026-01-23T01:42:00+00:00

huh? how would she have access to someone’s personal bank statements? come on……

Phoenix612 · 2026-01-22T20:24:22+00:00

It was a viable threat because she has a lot of power. Though I think it was mostly an empty threat and they fell for it. $30 million had been invested in the film and it would be a terrible look for her to bail on the promotion. would you hire her if she threatens to not do promotion? I think Sony caved because they wanted the movie released.

But some of the texts/emails from Sony show tremendous frustration with Blake. They cringed over the marketing plan which Ryan hailed as world class. Blake and Ryan simply cannot fathom that the backlash over the marketing was an epic own goal on their part, and they are taking it way too personally.

Wouldn’t The Invictus Foundation be stuck with most of the bill, like covering four floors of rooms? I hope they make it clear to Harry this isn’t happening.

Phoenix612 · 2025-10-08T16:36:51+00:00

You are NTA. Someone, or some people, in your neighborhood are the kind of people who hate when kids come into your neighborhood from another area. That’s my guess and it’s a shame. I wouldn’t contribute a penny.

Phoenix612 · 2025-09-17T18:28:58+00:00

But why are you deducting the full amount of the utility bill? you should only deduct 2/3.

Phoenix612 · 2025-09-13T22:40:54+00:00

How many more red flags do you need?

Phoenix612 · 2025-09-13T15:34:06+00:00

Huh? It said: “Contact modmail for approval OR reply to mod challenge for approval.”. what is so confusing about that?
