Blaze (he/him)Lego enthusiasts, did you receive any sets for Christmas?
kusttraYup. Got the mini Agrabah palace, 3-in-1 birdhouse, and the Ideas tree house set. The Walmart near my in-laws had a bunch of sets at 40%-50% off, as well, so we indulged a bit there, too. š
roofuskitI got my kid the D&D set. So weāre building that together. So in a way I got the D&D set for Christmas.
nocturneThis looked like it was going to be the first time in 2 decades+ that I got no LEGO, but my daughter had ordered a set for me. It arrives tomorrow or Wednesday.
BlackEcoMy partner and I got 10368, the chrysanthemum.
SalvoI got that for my mother and my niece.
Mum had fun building it and has decided to start a collection of the botanicals and replacing her cheap plastic houseplants with them.
I got the Darth Vader mech, and two microfighters: the TIE interceptor and the AAT tank.
I was gifted a Technic Koenigsegg Jesko #42173, pretty excited to get into it!
Got four sets all ones I wanted.
42179 Planet Earth and Moon in Orbit 10330 McLaren MP4/4 & Ayrton Senna 71436 King Boole Haunted Mansion 75682 Elphaba & Glinda Figures.
Great sets just have the McLaren left to build.
Wife got me the tuxedo cat set. We have an all black cat and Iām really considering ordering the white pieces in black if it doesnāt cost too much.
You should be able to replace what you need pretty cheaply on Bricklink
Mayor PoopingtonIf they made an orange version of that set id order it right away.
I gifted the kiddo Lego Monkey Palace board game. Iāve never enjoyed the Lego video games, they feel like such a missed opportunity to encourage creativity through building, but this board game is pretty great. The instructions are a little overwhelming at first but once we got the feel for it everyone had a great time. Itās got a spacial puzzle feel to it while everyone collaboratively builds a palace structure and competes to make it taller. The little guy didnāt want to tear it down because āit looks so coolā but was very excited for another round.
You might check out the Lego Worlds game. I believe this is the one thatās in a style similar to Minecraft and not one of the puzzle type (admittedly my favorites) that most of them are.

I gave away my unopened Lambo (42115) set after staring at my unfinished Bugatti (42083) set that sat for 2+years without progress. Both were covered in dust. I accepted that I might never open the other set.
No, Iām not rich. I just bought 5 sets when I went to legoland on a trip my therapist suggested. The others were small and digestible.
I aim to finish that set this year.
Not an enthusiast but got my wife the Milky Way, the weasleyās house, and the orchid. We only have the house left.
Iām an enthusiast and did not receive any sets, thankfully. I have way too many sets to display so Iām only buying things Iām really interested in. I have multiple large totes in the garage of new or broken down sets due to a lack of space to display them.
I display my Star Wars sets, but I have two of the Pirates of the Caribbean ships still packed in ziplock nags and sone others. Need to get i to the bin at mynparents and grab my original XWing, Snowspeeder, and Landspeeder sets. Might have more, i dont remember lol
blackn1ghtI got the LEGO McLaren speed champions F1 set (76919), been a while since I got some Lego!
I received the G500 Professional. It now sits in its own shelf, next to the ACTROS and the ZETROS.
Iāve still got my eyes out for the 8110 UniMOG.
Iām thinking of getting another G300 because it has a lot of pieces that i need for a MOC I have planned.
Iām 36; I donāt receive Christmas presents anymore.
No, and I specifically asked no one give me lego because I still have the modular history museum boxed in my basement that Iāve yet to build.
having a young cat in the house has made the prospect of building unattractive.
supermursI got two Speed Champion sets, Ferrari F40 and Audi S1 e-tron.
Unfortunately I havenāt had the time to build them yet.
My (41m) parents get me a good sized set, usually Iāll pick out a few and theyāll pick one. This year i got the Ghost and Phantom Star Wars Rebels set. Had to buy a new bookcase to make room on then one I display my sets on. Now if only they wouldnāt get dusty.
I got Himeji Castle #21060 as a gift and bought Fountain Garden #10359 as a too me from me gift. Now I have reached the point where I have run out of space to display my sets and have to figure out how to get more shelves on my walls where there is no more space for shelves.
