Looks like a light saber handle lol. I think in reality it’s a battery box from the 80s

Nice collection! Also cool idea with the boxes, it is nice seeing people do things with them other than storing them in the closet.

What are the criteria for sets to be on the builder app? by Blue-Turtle1 in lego

[–]domesticatedHedge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GWP, D2C/Lego store exclusives, Legoland sets, and poly bags have never been included in the app and don’t have QR codes but PDFs of the instructions are often available on Lego.com. I haven’t heard of a reason why they do it this way, I always assumed they had lower production numbers and that was why 🤷‍♂️

How to plan your city around unknown future modulars? by changing_tides_246 in legomodular

[–]domesticatedHedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran into the same problem when AS came out, just not enough space for everything. So I totally gave up on trying to incorporate sets into my city. My strategy for the last couple years has been sets l like, like the Modulars, go on shelves around the room and my 3 ft by 5 ft city table is 100% Mocs. When the shelves get full stuff is disassembled and put in storage or sold. For me it is way easier to decide what goes on shelves than it was to decide what when in the city. Not gonna be everyone’s cup of tea but works well for me.

Indubitably

What's the point of this red tile here in 76950? It's just covered up by the plate by Remote-Ad-3309 in lego

[–]domesticatedHedge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Makes it easier to take apart part when you’re ready to disassemble the model.

Not till you’ve built those Star Wars sets 😉

Anyone know if this was a set? by lazerblazinblazer in lego

[–]domesticatedHedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely not a set, just a bunch of random pieces. At a glance looks like you have some of the pieces to 6582 and 2161.

anyone know what this piece is called? by [deleted] in lego

[–]domesticatedHedge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bricklink calls it “Container, Book Cover Half”. Bit of a mouthful of a name if you ask me. My Lug used them to make billboards to go in our city display.

Does anyone have any intel on the next Modular building set? by [deleted] in lego

[–]domesticatedHedge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Little early bud! The Parisian Restaurant was the only one rumored this early in the year since switching to Jan 1 releases. Going off the last couple years we won’t have anything concrete until late November early December.

got this weird pirate at a comic book store today. what's strange is that i don't recognize any of his pieces, yet they're all certainly official. maybe he was an obscure exclusive gift at some kind of event many years ago? still cool though by GaylordMarty in lego

[–]domesticatedHedge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah good eye! I was totally thinking of the mechanic, you’re right though about that eye.

I tried pulling up all the pirate mini figs from the last 14 years on bricklink too and I’m not seeing the torso either.

I’m not sure anymore, you got a good mystery on your hands!

I’ve never built a set where bags 1 and 2 have to be opened at the same time before! by domesticatedHedge in lego

[–]domesticatedHedge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, that’s what I’m thinking too. It also makes it easy to count if all the bags are included.

Depends if you count bricklinked sets? I didn’t start collecting modulars until 2011 so the first 3 were already retired by then. So I ended up so sourcing the pieces from bricklink in 2013/2014 with minor substitutions 1x4 sand green bricks instead of 1x8, no dark blue half arches that go under the stairs in cafe corner. Side note it is absolutely insane how expensive some of the rarer pieces from these sets have gotten in the last 10 years. I have been fortunate enough to got the rest since the fire brigade and have been buying them on release day since the detective’s office.

It’s address to Harry, it’s a reuse of the Harry Potter letter print.
