Around this time last year, Teresa and I were in Portugal for the first LEGO fan weekend. Not their first event, but the first as a fully fledged hub event. Anyway, the event last year was fantastic. I'll be honest in that we had no idea what to expect, but whatever ideas we might have had were blown away by the hospitality, generosity and professionalism of the event. Obviously......

If you were in the Kennet Shopping Centre in Newbury last week - you can't have failed to notice this going on! Highclere Castle is the real life building that is used as the setting for Downton Abbey. A TV show that a few people have seen apparently!

‘Tis the seasons for Pumpkins! At this year’s BrickLive event at the Birmingham NEC, we went Pumpkin-crazy - making not one, but two giant pumpkins with the help of our Master Builders, volunteers and visitors to the show.

This is probably our biggest, and most incredible build to date, and when we say big - we mean Guinness World Record breaking BIG! Built in collaboration with DFDS, the Danish Shipping Company, Jubilee Seaways is the world’s largest (supported) LEGO(R) ship. The ship was launched in Copenhagen on August 17, 2016. At 12.035m long, and built using over a million LEGO(R) bricks, she is a world record breaker!

The Lewis Chessman just some of the amazing artefacts at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh, and one of the most famous of the set is the Berserker, who is biting on his shield. We recreated this stunning piece in LEGO(R) as part of a collaborative BIG Build with members of the public.

… At St Enoch’s Shopping Centre in Glasgow. The team were here building a giant heart, with some help from the public, just in time for Valentine’s Day!

LEGO(R)! And what better way to celebrate than a BIG Build!

At the Helix Park at Falkirk stand the Kelpies, alongside the Forth and Clyde Canal. These are the largest equine sculptures in the world, standing 30m tall. We were commissioned to create LEGO(R) versions of the horses, though thankfully not to scale!
