Welcome back. This prolonged break has been brought to you by travel and winter sickness!

Richard went to visit Japan Brickfest in Kobe on the second weekend in June. Some of his highlights include:

@fukutaku10‘s amazing phoenix and dragon
Orchestra by Sachiko Akinaga
Masao Hidaka's monorail
Great Ball contraption Check out Planet AFOL on Youtube for coverage of the entire event.

Once Richard saw a life-size Gundam outside a shopping centre, he came to realise that 60421 Robot World was not such a far-fetched thing. https://ramblingbrick.com/2024/07/01/60421-lego-city-robot-world-nostalgic-callbacks-and-more/

Richard has also been building the 42172 LEGO Technic McLaren P1 Supercar. So far, the experience has not been without its challenges. https://ramblingbrick.com/2024/07/15/42172-lego-technic-mclaren-p1-unboxing-and-build-experience-

In the meantime, Jay has been looking at the upcoming Jaws set from LEGO IDEAS. Stephen Spielberg’s Jaws has been given the Ideas/18+ diorama treatment. Between Jaws, Jurassic Park and Raiders of the Lost Ark, we speculate about what might come next.
