Have you ever wished there was one big hub connecting all the different LEGO websites, picture-sharing sites, blogs and forums? One place where you could see what’s going on in the LEGO-fan world and share your passion with others in the hobby?

(Written by William) Have you ever had the experience where a LEGO technique seems to suddenly click for you? I know that type of experience usually comes to me when I’m building a LEGO model of my own creation. That’s primarily due to the fact that I’m asking the LEGO-elements to do something they’re not […] Read more
We have been discussing LEGO CUUSOO here in the past couple of weeks thanks to Sarah’s posts, which also inspired me to look into projects on CUUSOO a bit deeper. Meanwhile I have been contacted by CUUSOO-member Matthew Copeland about his project, and I instantly liked his LEGO model. So I thought to bring it […] Read more

(Written by Sarah) One thing that I’ve had some fun with lately is making little LEGO gift vignettes and giving them as gifts to my non-LEGO friends. Since I base the vignette off each person, they really connect with it and see LEGO in a whole new light. It’s really been a source of joy […] Read more
LEGO stop-motion videos (also known as “brickfilms”) are a labor of love. Each movement has to be photographed separately, and the thousands of pictures need sorting and editing just to create a couple of minutes of video. Definitely not for the faint of heart! But when your heart is filled with love anything is possible! […] Read more
