Check out the next LEGO City Update: LEGO CITY UPDATE: did I listen? https://youtu.be/oonlxp38pjY

Since the last update, we’ve moved Studsburg into a new room and added a lot of new stuff! But don’t worry, I’ve made space for the LEGO Trains and am planning to add even more track (so I can get more trains!).

From an entirely new and raised Main Street, to the beginnings of a residential area and train station. There’s even some of the harbour coming into play. The Freight yard is currently in limbo, but you can get a sneak peek at some of the machinery I’m working on to start to build a LEGO Train Workshop.

And don’t worry. Ninjago mountain is still planned and will feature the Temple of AirJitzu (70751) – cannot wait to build that set.

The newest addition is the Ghostbuster HQ (75827) which is currently being built. That is a big build and I’ll be sharing my LEGO Unboxing, Speed Build and Review soon!

As with a lot of this kind of thing, I wanted to keep tinkering to make it better and better. But then I’d never get to share my progress, and most importantly get your feedback on the progress to date – and what I should focus on next.

And, most importantly, there’s some out of town visitors! In this video, GJBricks is joined by:
