Just quick question: you couldn't make it bigger with 2 museums ? (1 more window on the right and one on the left ?) Thank you... Your building looks great 👍😉✅
What a fun video!! I really enjoyed the seer happiness and enthusiasm you displayed in the video which translated to an epic mod! I love the extensions and the banner posts. I definitely will be adding those banner posts to my museum😊 The extra olive plates replacing the white and stone grey plates really do make a wonderful improvement. Can’t wait to see how you fill the interiors. Looking forward to the next build and banter too when the fancy hits you.
It was so nice to meet you too!! The modular looks incredible it was a great choice to buy a second! Looking forward to seeing the interiors. Also i managed to get my santa!!
Amazing! Looks beautiful! Love that you moved those banners!!! And your atrium bump out is fantastic! I want to add that to one of my buildings somewhere!!! (I think with vines on those top studs it’d be perfect!!!) I plan to extend the sides on mine the same way… of course I’ll build mine in Black & White to match my all Black & White city! But I’m also going to add a 3rd floor… with slightly shorter windows! …. Just waiting on my 200 candle pieces to arrive from bricklink to begin my build! I plan to use mine as the New Town Hall!
I think in hindsight the expansion sideways makes it feel more balanced. It seems really natural. It was a super fun build and a pretty straight forward moc. Have so much fun building!
Uhh, really great idea about swapping the gray and white line with olive, I'm definetly gonna do that to mine when I get it. And I really like the idea with the cafe and the windows expansion. Some wines up the wall would definetly fit, but its color might be a challange with the olive green wall. Will be looking forward to see more of the museum in the future ^_^
How did you do that? The roof looked so complex but you smashed it! The finished product is just awesome and agree the video doesn't give it justice. How did you come up with the idea of making two sets in to one?
I just kinda wanted to make it a little bigger but not too much. Extending with 8 studs is the straight forward option as that’s the width of the window section so makes it easier.
Hahaha you basicly did what I wanted do do ! Right down to the banners (planning to open up the income two storeys and have them in the entrance instead of the outside. Also planning to expand it even to the back to host my other dino skeletons (T-rex from JP and a custom diplodocus. So funny how many people respect the restrictions of the size in which Lego released it and took it on theirselves to expand it. This is the first time my instant reaction was ok I'm going to expand this. Normally I build it and respect it for what it is but here everybody ralies to expand it: to the stars and beyond !
Looks so good doubled in size! I do agree that it looks so much better with out the grey/white line. I don't know what they were thinking in design, the line bugged me from the first time seeing it.
Oh my gaaad LOOKS AMAZING Joanna! 😍Such a beast of a modular now, looks fantastic with the lights, getting night at the museum vibes now haha, just need a ben stiller minfig 🤪
It would be so easy to change the interiors to be a mansion for sure. Also I felt whilst. Was building it, if you left the columns off it would be a good school too
Great Mod of the Museum. And always I thought the different coloured stripe of the extra floor. Was a nice colour detail. But what you did is more like in real 😃👍 The roof in the middle section with more curved corners. Detonates with the sharp corners of the side roofs. I the original build. With your bigger build it's les disturbing
Fantastic update much better look overall. LEGO should take a lesson from your color matching far and away a cleaner look! The banner upgrade is beyond cool! GREAT JOB
What you've built there is what I was hoping/praying the Museum modular was going to be like in the first place. Was really quite disappointed when Lego showcased the original set
absoloutley one of the best modulars for a long time, it's a great as the town hall and grand emprioum . How man pieces did you use from the second set? Is it worth getting a second one ??? Id like I higher building and slightly higher roof on mine . Also xtra space inside for exhibits .
Sooo grand I'm loving it!I want to make a grand magical chandelier for it but I won't be getting it till maybe next year so I have time to think it thru
What a massive improvement. Love it. I think you should add a second pair of Microfigures to the roof and place them above the windows on both sides to give it a little bit more structure: Great job as always! Cant wait for the inside: More Dinosaurs!! :) "All I want for christmas is Mieow"??! Is that a tshirt?
I love it! Although I am a bit worried that the botanical gardens might block off the view of the museum? Another thing too is that I still think it would be nice to have some sort of strip lights above the modulars to give them better lighting (it’s kinda hidden in shadows other than being lit from the inside)
I saved mine to build after Christmas and just finished it today Beacuse of this and your inspiring video, I was able to acquire the parts to remove the gray and white lines in time for the build. For the museum sign brackets, instead of switching to white, I covered them with olive green 1x1 slopes and used an olive green 1x2 tile between.
Wow!! That looks incredible! I love your “doubled” modular so much more than the original! The proportions and scale just look better! The cafe solarium on the side is inspired! Keep up the great work!
I love your expansion! I’m not a modular collector, but I watch your videos because your joy in building with Lego is so genuine and infectious. I can’t wait to see your park reveal!
Not been much of a MOCer over the years, and do not have a city. So the modular buildings have never appealed to me, but this is a truly stunning set and an even better MOC. I wasn’t expecting to like it so much. Am I going to get one, I doubt it but I’ve never been so on the fence about a modular before. Dam you Johanna 🤣
Wow what a difference changing the grey and white line in the middle makes! Do you think it was worth getting the 2nd set for the extension or it could be done just ordering parts from Bricklink?
I’m. Not entirely sure if I’m honest. For just the walls it may be cheaper getting the bricks. (Especially if you wait as more people will part them out going forward) but not 100% sure. It was certainly easier this way.
I am still debating if I’ll heighten my mils plate with two bricks or not. Having that impressive height will help even more for sure. Have fun with your build! 😊
I think having the different colours for each floor is more in line with they other modulars they all have a different colour divide. But luckily the upgrade was simple. Though a touch pricy
Love it! Just became a member. Love your excitement and wish I was half as creative! Looking to do the banners on poles…where do I find instructions? Thanks!
I am officially channeling my mother and feel totally incompetent! I clicked on community and saw the post that said “link to discord in post below”…still can’t find it…please forgive me for needing more help.
Hi Johanna, awesome to see how your MOC-ing skills have advanced over the years! I have a question for you, please. When you used to have your Lego room inside the house, did you have issues with sunlight and pieces yellowing? Your videos in the past also seem to have daylight in the background. I live in a condo apartment and to display any Lego, they are inevitably exposed to sunlight and UV rays even though I generally have my curtains down. Would love to know if you experienced the same before in the old Lego rooms and have any ideas! Thanks.
The room in the old house had a blind I had closed whilst I wasn’t in there to help protect it as that room got direct sun in the morning. The room in my current house never got direct sunlight which was helpful so all I did was add a transparent blind to help filter the UV but still keep the daylight. That seemed to work pretty well. Hope that helps
What you’ve created is just gorgeous and I can’t wait to see what you are doing on the inside! I’m planning on building my museum later this month and will definetely moc it a little bit, so I’m very grateful for the inspiration you’re giving me ;)
This is absolutely amazing!! The banners on the poles looks great, and I love how the building is extended just like if that was the set. With the lights too it looks beautiful!
The banners look so much better on poles & that glass end looks fabulous! I love that! What an awesome idea! Great content as always! Can’t wait to see the finished park!
I stumbled across your channel a little over a month ago and you've reignited my love for lego that was practically dead for a few years. Ive bought 2 enormous lego sets in the last 2 paydays because of seeing how much fun you have in your videos and it's gave me a real hobby again, which i was heavily lacking in my life, so thank you! Also, your videos really brighten my evenings when i get home from work. Im going through a lot right now, Ill save you the details. But, watching you talk so passionately and really enjoy building gives me a lot of joy! I really can't wait to see what you build next! Have a lovely week!
if you have some olive green tiles over maybe you can put on the glasses dome to finished the stud away? but that is mine oppinion but it does look great.
@@HighTeaToys if you adding different colour. maybe still putting the green to gettiing more romantic and colouring. but again. it is your model and not mine. i do like the that museum however... i did not own so many space so... it shall be more a display lacking places for me 🤣🤣🤣
Banner instructions are now (finally) live: rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-165836/LegoJohanna/banner-stand-natural-history-museum-modular/#details
the banners on the poles is 100% the way to go - looks fantastic!!
This looks so much better now, I really like the glass panels on the end. Great job 👏

That’s pretty good. I thought that set was made to be doubled. Also looks a lot cleaner without the banners and window washer
It was so nice to meet you too!! The modular looks incredible it was a great choice to buy a second! Looking forward to seeing the interiors. Also i managed to get my santa!!
Oh wow! That turned out so good! Well, I'm off to bricklink for a few bits now, haha, and thank you, Johanna, for such excellent content!
No worries at all! Glad you enjoyed it 🥳
Which parts do I need for this customization?
Ivy by the cafe for sure. Love this!
This ended up looking fantastic!
your banners look better

It looks so good !! So happy you went for it right away. Hope your neck is back to normal.
It’s much better thanks. Still hard to do my hair any anything above my head, but otherwise I don’t notice it
Wow! Great job!! It looks amazing.
Great video Johanna looks really good have a great week ♥️
Thank you Nate, all the best to you!
i think the extensions turned out great, really is a nice museum
Looks friggin good. I'm over here thinking about making mine smaller/thinner. Lol
That would be fun to see too
The banners 😍😍
Uhh, really great idea about swapping the gray and white line with olive, I'm definetly gonna do that to mine when I get it.

This looks so Great! I 💕 the changes you've made! It's good to make this your own for your City.
Oh my gaaad LOOKS AMAZING Joanna! 😍Such a beast of a modular now, looks fantastic with the lights, getting night at the museum vibes now haha, just need a ben stiller minfig 🤪
Looks much nicer! The museum reminds me of those 1900s - 1990s mansions
It would be so easy to change the interiors to be a mansion for sure. Also I felt whilst. Was building it, if you left the columns off it would be a good school too
@@HighTeaToys It just shows that Lego is an endless possibility!
Brilliant, I’m waiting for mine to arrive so I can start my moc. Your designs are an inspiration.
Thank you so much. Lots of fun to look forward to for you! Enjoy it 😊
Greetings from Perth, Western Australia. I love your channel and how upbeat you are. Your MOC's are fabulous, keep the great work:)

Really, really cool expansion. thanks for sharing.
I think that it looks much better with the white and light blueish grey remove and replaced with olive green.
Loools gorgeous! There are any construction plans you edited to upgrade the museum? Ty
Wonderful modification! I could see the open window side becoming a kid's play area or something. Peace.
Sooo grand I'm loving it!I want to make a grand magical chandelier for it but I won't be getting it till maybe next year so I have time to think it thru
Really nice enhancements you did here, the final result is amazing.
What a massive improvement. Love it. I think you should add a second pair of Microfigures to the roof and place them above the windows on both sides to give it a little bit more structure:
Great job as always! Cant wait for the inside: More Dinosaurs!! :)
"All I want for christmas is Mieow"??! Is that a tshirt?
Wow, amazing, love the changes you have made Johanna.
Happy for you, that you could go with the flow you got in and build and buy as you liked and had a lot of fun with it!!
Beautifully done expansion!
Very well done. Looks absolutely wonderful. Can’t wait to see the interior.
@High Tea Toys - Thank you for this video and for inspiring us to create such incredible displays of Lego.
These MODs are great! Takes the building to a whole new level! I'm looking forward to making them myself 😊
Inspired me for a huge mansion house great adaption 😊
I absolutely love it Johanna. Great job!
I love it! Although I am a bit worried that the botanical gardens might block off the view of the museum? Another thing too is that I still think it would be nice to have some sort of strip lights above the modulars to give them better lighting (it’s kinda hidden in shadows other than being lit from the inside)
It’s kinda the reason I wanted to make it taller. But I think it works with a half baseplate in the middle.
It’s giving me one story short of a Malfoy manor
Looks great. That was a really good idea building those poles for the banners.😀👍

!!!! Such a fun moc!!
Ok so you’re telling me I need to do this mod and potentially extend it out with the botanical gardens set 👀
Maaaaaaaaaaybe 😇
That looks really great and make it look much more of the imposing building facade you would expect a museum. Well done.
Love it! Just became a member. Love your excitement and wish I was half as creative! Looking to do the banners on poles…where do I find instructions? Thanks!
