Brixinit Box #1 - Unboxing and Review Video - May 2018

I finally took the plunge and ordered a 3-month subscription to the Brixinit Box. I received this at the very beginning of May but I had not been able to open or review it because I've been swamped with work and gathering paperwork to buy our first house (there is so much involved with that, and working 3rd shift doesn't help!). So today I finally opened and reviewed the box so that newbies could see what all comes with the Brixinit Box.

I was very pleased with everything that came with the box. It was a very simple and clean box without the extra bloat and "swag". This is for sure geared toward the older LEGO community members. That isn't to say that people of all ages wouldn't enjoy this box.

I did a 3-month subscription which ran me about $87 for the Tier 1 box. There are different levels you may choose, but I kept it basic and simple the first time around. In the future, I am sure I will up my game when I have more free time and cash to spend (those two things don't usually go hand-in-hand).

So here is the video that you can watch to get more details about the box itself! Enjoy!

  1. I had a terrible experience with this company, no response to emails, no products but they sure did take my money very quickly. I ordered dec 23, its February 12 and I have no box and no response to my email. I'm actually having to dispute the charge with my credit card company at this point. Its unfortunate as I bought this as a gift for my nephew. Do NOT recommend

Let's Build - LEGO Creator - "Treehouse Adventures"

Here is a other build that I did a while ago. This one had three different ways to build and this was the set up that I chose to do. Two kids enjoying a treehouse without the burden of the adult world on their shoulders. Plenty of fun things to do in and around their treehouse, and it even has a Bluejay and a Frog! This is set #31053 and contains 387 pieces. It was a medium difficulty build and I did struggle a little bit because there was a mechanical part that allows the bridge to raise and lower as you open and close the set.  Again, I do not have a time-lapse video for this set because I made it before I even thought about taking video of my builds. Also, you may notice the strange and intense lighting as well as the white background. This is because I bought a photography box with different backdrops and LED ring lights. This is an improvement from my previous photos (maybe?) and may help inprove my photo quality. Enjoy!

Let's Build - LEGO City - "Airport VIP Service"

Here is another build without a time-lapse video that I had done a long time ago. This depicts a successful business woman as she leaves her Limo and takes flight to her next business ventures.  This is set number 60102 (again, you can see it on the plates of the vehicle) and was 364 pieces altogether. I actually got a lot of leftover parts from this build and I'm hoping to use them elsewhere at some point. Overall, a very easy build but it did take a while to construct. I enjoyed that it depicted the successful person as a woman. Always nice to see the diversity in these LEGO sets. 

Let's Build - 3rd Party "bricks" - Mr. Universe Van

I've always been a huge fan of Steven Universe and when I saw that there was a series of LEGO knock offs dedicated to the show I was super excited. I didn't mind that it wasn't LEGO brand, because there are a lot of decent 3rd part "brick" products (and I'm a Brick Builder!) So I figured this set wouldn't be too bad. Eventually, I was gifted this set by my wife because she knew I love the show, I love LEGO, and (hopefully) she loves me.   I went into this build thinking it was going to be extremely easy. Boy was I wrong. The finished product is nice and it is still themed to Steven Universe, but the journey to get there was awful. None of these pieces like to stick together, there are about 4 different colors for white, the gray are too similar and can be used in the wrong spots, and the stickers we're super difficult to apply (you can see where I ripped a few).  I'm not saying I don't appreciate this as a gift and that I like the finished prod...
