Custom LEGO Modulars with Alternate Builds

by on June 11, 2022
in Featured LEGO Creations

The LEGO Modular Building collection continues to be very popular with one new set added each year. Besides the official LEGO sets, LEGO fans themselves design and build their own custom Modular Buildings that are compatible with the series. Some of these custom builds are completely new creations, while others are alternate builds for either the official Modulars, or other LEGO sets.

Some LEGO fans share pictures and even instructions of their custom and alternate builds on their social media pages, own website, or Rebrickable.com. One website that is particularly interesting for fans of the LEGO Modular Buildings is Brickative.com, as the site’s sole focus is the Modulars. They provide downloadable building instructions for custom LEGO Modular Buildings as well as Modular street-compatible vehicles, landscaping modules, and more.

A recent category added to the Brickative.com website is called Alternate Builds. It features Modular Buildings that were made using pieces from official LEGO sets. Some of these are alternate builds for official LEGO Modular Buildings, while others are alternate builds for LEGO City, LEGO Creator, and LEGO Friends sets.

If you would like to build your own custom Modulars, alternate builds for existing LEGO sets are a great option. It eliminates the daunting task of searching for and purchasing parts individually. All you need is the official set and the downloadable instructions for the alternate build, and you’re ready to go! And of course, once the custom model is built, you can further tweak it to your liking with other pieces you may have.

If you’re interested, visit the Brickative.com website and look around their selection. And if you are missing some of the latest LEGO Modular Buildings, visit the LEGO Creator Expert section of the Online LEGO Shop.

Builders can also power up the ride with motorized components, which are available separately, which will raise the elevator up automatically.

Guaranteed to generate a crowd, this playful set also contains eleven minifigures, including a ride operator, balloon seller, pretzel seller, hot-dog seller, a grandma, a young boy, and five rollercoaster riders. The set comes with 3,756 pieces and the finished model is 36 in. (92 cm) high, 33.5 in. (85 cm) wide, and 13.5 in. (34 cm) deep.

Commenting on the set, LEGO Designer Pierre Normandin says: “When we were designing this set, we wanted to recreate the feeling experienced when it just begins to tip over the highest point. Perfect for play or display, we are excited to add this set to the LEGO Fairground Collection.”

The #10303 LEGO Loop Coaster set is going to be available at official LEGO stores and the Online LEGO Shop from the 1st of July. Prices are as follows: 399.99 EUR/ 599.99 AUD/ 344.99 GBP/ 399.99 USD/ 499.99 CAD. For more information, visit the LEGO Creator Expert section of the Online LEGO Shop.
