The new Coffee Corner obviously needs a new LEGO thread 😄 The big news in that department recently is that the largest set ever is no longer the Colosseum. The new number one is the Titanic. It's a really gorgeous set and it's huge. 9090 pieces in the (very large) box and the finished model is 135 cm long. Unfortunately, the price tag is equally huge: $629.99
Here's a picture of the set:
I'm still debating the type writer to be honest. Not sure I even have room for that let alone the Titanic!
I still need a bigger flat with room for a separate Lego room LOL, I want both the Taj Mahal and the huge Millennium Falcon.
In the meantime I enjoy the Brickheadz series.
Baby Yoda from the Mandalorian set is sooooo cute. Next up will be the Minions Brickheadz sets.
My husband got me a lighted display cabinet for my Legos and a couple of other collections. The top shelf has the Yellow Submarine, Lunar Landing Module, and Women of Space collection.
(I had to split it into two images to get it small enough to upload...)

But you know the lunar landing was fake, right? Everyone in this flat Earth know it...
I'm sorry, but as a TENTE kid, I had to troll this Lego thread.
So does the class cabinet keep the dust off of them or is that just wishful thinking? I've even just noticed my Saturn V rocket is starting to "yellow" a little on the part that is hit by the sun 😞
Yes, it does keep most of the dust out. We have cats and there is always fur and dander around - we have to vacuum and dust frequently - but it doesn't end up in the cabinet.

As a kid, I would sneak into my brother's room and play with his Legos like that - my mom worked for a sporting goods store that sold toys, so he would get great sets for birthday and Christmas gifts.
I actually do a bit of both. I have a couple of sets of random bricks that I mess with on occasion, plus I have sets that I build for display.

I took my son to Lego club after school yesterday and they are just getting started with Lego Mindstorms. I think we are both hooked. I know what we are both asking for, for Christmas this year.
In my case I have combined two of my passions, lego and classic movie/series cars in small format (I don't have much space).
This new collaboration between Raspberry Pi and LEGO Education looks pretty cool:
"The Raspberry Pi Build HAT fits any Raspberry Pi with a 40-pin GPIO header and lets you control up to four LEGO® Technic™ motors and sensors from the LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Portfolio, a flexible system with unlimited possibilities.
Build robust, intelligent machines that combine Raspberry Pi computing power with LEGO components."
There's a Python library available as well.
I always try to keep my sons (and my old childhood) legos out of my office, but my wife got me this 'desk' size guy that I can use to play while listening to conference calls.
The good people at LEGO insist on trying to ruin me... there's a new huge and very costly Star Wars AT-AT coming:
The price tag (800 USD) is kinda ridiculous, but it is a very nice set of probably my favourite Star Wars vehicle. There's a Gizmodo article up with 8 good (sort of) arguments for spending the money 🙂
I can safely look away, I’ve no room at for that - I have hinted at the Tron cycles and the 1950s Pickup truck for Christmas lol
My desk is to small.. but my little mate made it to
My son is a big coaster enthusiast (coaster count ~250) so we got him this Lego (still waiting for the motor). Not quite 9090 pieces but still cool. Check out the cotton candy booths and the sea gulls.
Perfect timing, TechEd keynote is starting and son shows up and says "can you fix it please?"
