I was a guest on this week's episode of the AFOLs Welcome podcast. We discussed a wide range of topics including my LEGO Labels, Parts Guide, and a lengthy discussion about sorting and storing LEGO parts.

I can't wait to hear what you learned, what I missed, or any other questions you might have after listening!

A year ago today, I started building the LEGO Parts Guide. A few weeks ago, I added the ability to download a custom label for almost any part.
This includes around 3500 LEGO parts, and 1500 more than last year's update to my popular LEGO Brick Labels collection.

Happy Sorting in 2025!

Today I published my in-depth review of #42146 #Liebherr Crawler Crane LR 13000 — a 2883-piece #LEGO #Technic set that is the largest and most expensive Technic set ever made.
Without question, this is a very cool LEGO model which is very faithful to the source material and has great play features. The biggest question I tackled is whether this set can ever live up to its astronomical $700 price tag.

#10312 Jazz Club is the latest addition to the #LEGO Modular Building Series. While it isn't quite as impressive as last year's Boutique Hotel, it has a lot to offer for advanced LEGO builders including some interesting techniques, a larger selection of Minifigures, and some really cute details like the tiny greenhouse on the roof.
Read my detailed #review to learn more - link in bio, or visit /2022/review-10312-lego-modular-jazz-club/
It will be available January 1, 2023. Happy Building!

I finished my in-depth review of #10307 #LEGO Eiffel Tower set, the tallest and arguably largest LEGO set ever produced. I really enjoyed seeing this new level of scale and detail in an official LEGO set, but it is honestly too big for most people's homes. If you live in a mansion without small kids — go for it!
(Neither is true for me, so I will be displaying it in my office at work instead.)

#10307 Eiffel Tower #LEGO set is so tall that I had to take over the living room to create a temporary photo studio.
As you can see, it is a lot taller than the Rollercoaster set, and slightly taller than the boxes for three of the largest LEGO sets I own.
With the photography done, I should be able to finish the review tomorrow 🤞.!

How big is the new 10,001-piece #10307 Eiffel Tower set? Here's a preschooler for scale!
I just finished building this massive set, with some help from the small person in the first photo. It took 13 1/3 hours to build (not including photography) and is nearly 5 feet tall. It captures the iconic shape of the real building well, and the large size is definitely an attention grabber.
I hope to post the complete review tomorrow - sign up for newsletter at brickarchitect.com to be the first to read it!

Here we go... A full review of the #40579 Eiffel's Apartment (Gift with Purchase) set, as well as a preview of my review of the massive 10,001-piece #10307 Eiffel Tower set.
I finished building the first of three boxes, but since I'm only about 2.5 hours into what I expect will be a 15-hour build... I have a long way to go!
