Welcome to Brick Elders! Where we discuss all things Lego; especially, for elder folks who have been playing with Lego Bricks themselves or with their children or grand children. Topics we'll cover should help you decide which Lego sets to buy for your enjoyment or those that will answer the questions your grand children may ask...
For example, do you know what your grand children like about Lego or which set is which? What about getting them to put down the tablet or cell phone and play Lego with you? How about other things that can be done with Lego, like collecting Mini Figs, building cities or even making stop motion animation videos?
Thus, we will give simple reviews, some hopeful answers to use, an assortment of stop motion animation videos from the very beginning as we learn it (a journey), and just to entertain you about being older, slower and sometimes forgetful...using Lego.
If you enjoy our channel, please subscribe and post respectful comments about our videos.…

Happy Star Wars Day! May the 4th Be With You….
Appreciate the vid considering the challenge you're dealing with. Funwhole an interesting alternative to the big brick company and great for supplementing builds for a city.
Thanks! It's great to have alternatives for building and the other company's prices are insanely low….
we love off brands
Definitely going with off brands, just as much as Lego, and enjoying both….
It's so big. Where do you find the space 😂
I really like lego ninjago
The arc breifly shows incteh films when my favourite guy gets killed in order 66 and i dont know about the clone wars
The sets just kept coming out like santas present sack
Yep, Santa has been good to us this year….
Love a good lego haul
I do too
A wonderful trilogy of videos with a good review of the 3 sets, thank you!
Any landscaping coming? It all seems so flat near the beach and neighborhood
@@nerdbrick1012 Yes, I hope to work on that, just been occupied with health issues lately, but thank you for reminding me 😁
Good job !!
Very nice 😁😁
Thank you! Cheers!
Where can I buy it? Seriously. I mean it. 😀
Hi, I got mine from General Jim’s Toys, he has two of the three sets here: generaljimstoys.com/search?q=Oil+refinery+&type=product Or, you can buy them through Amazon which still comes from General Jim’s Toys; this includes the other set with train car: www.amazon.com/General-Jims-Chemical-Laboratory-Natural/dp/B0CHZP8SQN/ref=asc_df_B0CJ16X31L?mcid=c56a8a833f533d00aad5119302be08da&hvocijid=10299192395463964515-B0CJ16X31L-&hvexpln=73&tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=721245378154&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10299192395463964515&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9019258&hvtargid=pla-2281435177818&psc=1&th=1
Incredible!!!
@MimZik06 Thank You MImZik 😁
Thats a sweet build DUDE
Thank You 😁 I posted a part II video, it’s finished 👍🏻
Do you know I wash my hands every time before I handle my Lego for that very reason? I don't want my greasy, chocolatey, cheesy fingers to add grime to the pieces, lol. Also, do you need three sets of the botanical garden to build the rebrickable set? I thought it was two; I may have to pick up another set.
Hi, you can build with two, but you’ll need extra pieces for sure. With three you’ll have plenty and extra leftover, plus you can close the backside up like I did…. 😁

How big is your lego city?
@@Simpsons99Gaming Hi, it’s 12 feet wide by 48 feet long 😁
@TheBlueskydriver dang how you have a room big enough for it?
@ we have a 40’x63’ building just for Lego 😁
I DIDNT REALISE THIS WAS CUSTOM LEGO WOW
I wish everyone wore gloves because some people's fingers are just gross, lol.
@@BricksBuildStudio Yep, totally agree 😁
Thanks for sharing your haul! The antique store looks interesting.
@@erig4737 Thank You
Really nice layout! Obviously well thought out and it just looks clean-not over-built. Bravo!
@@mycompsci9288 Thank You 😁
Thats a beauty of a set
Thank You 😁 5 years waiting it aged really well 😃
MASSIVE 😮
Only if we had more room 😂
@@TheBlueskydriver More???? 🤣
@@MimZik06LOL! We just gotta downsize more on the other side side of the shed….😂
Thanks for the update. Looking forward to more videos of your great city.
Thank You 😁
Happy birthdayyy❤
Oh my word, can't believe I missed this. I love speed champions
No worries, will have more too come soon…. 😁
LOOKS AWSOME
Thank You
I think the droid is from the clone wars show
You should hold onto the Fortnite set and try and sell it for more in the future
Thank You 😎👍🏻
Yes, it’ll be Christmas before we know it 😁
I can already see you setting up for Christmas
THATS A LOT OF DAMN LEGO
@@MimZik06 My wife happily said the same thing…lol!
That’s so nice of you of catching up on Harry Potter lego for your Wife!! I’m sure she is really happy! Such a cool haul too!! I hope you enjoy and post up some reviews!
amazing video, but i would do something else to increase watchtime: first: have the set building time lapsed, then, just talk about the set! more people will watch, and once you get to 10k or more subs, you can join the lego partner program!
@@UkulizeBand yes that is a good idea
Thanks for the tips! 😁
I got the Lego Builder app, it was not a PDF of the instructions, it would walk through making sure you had the right pieces for each step and then highlighted where they go, and everything was rendered in 3D so if you wanted to shift the build around, you could also rotate the instructions and see it from any side you wanted. It's a fair departure from the standard booklet.
I think for most builds, I like the standard on my desk booklet, or the PDF, but there are a few times where having the ability to spin the instructions to a more favorable view for a tricky position will be nice to have as an additional tool.
Keep up the good work and building 😁
for me i like the instruction books more than online
@@MimZik06 I love the paper instructions as well, but the electronic does come in handy. Purchased a used set once and pages were missing, went to Lego.com and downloaded what I needed thank goodness 😁
We love the older generation Lego lovers 🤗
@@MimZik06 Thank you…😁. Gotta a new acronym “EFOL” Elder Friends of Lego…whatcha think?
@@TheBlueskydriver EFOL I like it 😁
Suffering from success 🤣
@@MimZik06 LOL 😂
Was hesitant about them at first, but really like both now….
@@TheBlueskydriver you must have misclicked 🤣 whoops, yeah I think they are the best buildings, size and all
@@MimZik06 Sorry about that it was meant for you; only slept 3 hours before replying…my slap happiness…lol! 🤪
These are my 2 favourite non star wats sets 😮
Thank you for the update 😁
You’re welcome and thank you for continuing to watch the videos 😁
@@TheBlueskydriver always😁
Is this decades of lego colecting
We’ve been collecting for about 8 years now. Not long, but in terms of Lego, it seems like forever…lol!
my fav legoer
Thank you MimZik06, I’m happy that you like my videos. 😁
@@TheBlueskydriver i like seeing someone who still enjoys Lego at this age, like I'm sure I will be when I'm older :)
happy belated birthday elder
Thank You MimZik06 😁
Personally, I would take the sets apart because I enjoy building the sets more than the finished models.
Totally agree, doing them from the beginning is great! Started disassembling it, but I thought what if I left it half together in a way to look like it’s being built in the Lego city, with construction vehicles and such? I just built the new Mobile Crane Set and was thinking that might look awesome…. What do you think?
@@TheBlueskydriver ha, that's a good idea. It could be in the middle of a repair because the tower collapsed.
I need a Semi Truck. On the Daily& Tower on rebuilding or trying to put together. I think it depends on if I had built it b4 or not. Or if I want to expand it. I know a lot of People have Made Both Bigger. I would totally rebuild the Dock thow. Also it's amazing how many older sets I find still in the Box. I found a Beauty& The Beast set. That I think they just opened the box, took out Bell& the Book. And then put everything in a Ziploc bag, put it back in the box and forgot it for a few yrs and then donated it. I got it for $14. Thankfully I had just grabbed the Belle/Aroura? princess build set on clearance. So I just put that Belle With the Set. Also I now have anof Auroras. To customize one with the Blue Dress. Also Eau Claire needs a Bricks& Minifigs Store.
Hey Dawn, if I see a used older semi truck I could buy it for you and then you just repay me. Since you’re up in Eau Claire I could drive up or we meet half way. If you’re talking about the new semi truck, I’m guessing Target or Walmart might have them soon. You got a good deal on the Beauty & The Beast set. I don’t have any of those sets, but I do have some Frozen ones that came with a used Lego haul. They’re definitely good for extra pieces, if not being put together as a set. Oh, I definitely agree Eau Claire needs a Bricks & Minifigs or even a Lego Store. With Wisconsin only having the two stores by Milwaukee and the one at the Minneapolis Mall, it’s a dead zone everywhere else in the state; even with Bricks & Minifigs in Madison. There needs too be another store midway….
Cool vid Elders! I love your haul videos. If you don’t mind me asking why do wear the gloves? Take care!
@@justin94226 Thank you 😁 I wear the gloves because my hands have sweating issues, makes Lego pieces slippery and I’ll drop them a lot without the gloves….
Great haul
@@alextownsend1339 Thank you Alex 😁
Happy late birthday
@@Joshster117 Thank You 😁
