Lego Downtown Diner–Part 2

Ten days. That’s how long it took me to build this complex set. These picture will help you understand why.

Huh, I just realized I never took a picture of the completion of phase 2. That was the rest of the interior and exterior of the diner on the ground floor. You’ll get to see the exterior in some of my other photos, though. Although in none of them is the waitress on roller skates visible–guess you’ll have to build it yourself to see her.

Phase 3 was the second floor–a gymnasium with dumbbells, weight bench, heavy bag, and boxing ring. It also has a male in trunks with gloves and a female in a sleeveless hoodie although you only get to see the hair of the female in these photos of the interior and front of phase 3.

Phase 4 was the third floor–a recording studio. The photo of the interior of this one was taken before I finished building it because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to get the detail once all the walls and doors were up. There is a glass door that closed off the room with the microphone. Also, there’s a very textured wall to improve the sound of the recording.

Phase five was the roof and the car. Check out those tail fins! And that guitar player has a haircut we called a DA back in the 50s.

With it all put together it looks like this:

Now I get to spend a couple more days disassembling it and repackaging it into the five phases of building it. Using quart Ziplock bags means the next builder will only have to open five bags. But, it might take a little longer to sort out the pieces in each bag.

I wonder how many days it will take next time?

TTYL,
