Brick.ie The Irish Association for Adult Fans of LEGO®

Many of you say the LEGO Friends Mars Base I had at Brick Féile. I just realised that I haven't posted any photos to the group, so I intend to correct that.

But first, I'd like to show some photos of the new Galaxy Explorer that I showed for the first time at the Blessington show today.

I'm still waiting on some parts to finish it off, but I decided to bring the incomplete ship to Blessington, and display it with the engineering crew hard at work on it.

It's built from the 10497 Galaxy Explorer instructions, but recoloured to fit the Friends Space theme.

I was amused how many kids tried to "fix" the windscreen during the day!

More photos will follow soon, from Brick Féile and Blessington.
