  • Award #22 – Biggest disappointment of the year

    Award #22 – Biggest disappointment of the year

    So we round off our awards with our very own Raspberries. While usually everything LEGO has a hand in of late is another golden egg, we sometimes get some rotten stuff. So to kick things off I asked the panel what their biggest disappointment for 2015 was and why? Adam – Endless Leaks Many of…

  • Award #21 – Shock of the year

    Award #21 – Shock of the year

    Yesterday was a dud of an award and I don’t think it will be back in 2016. We do have to try these things and have learnt which awards are popular and which are not. Today is the shock of the year. This covers what shocked us the most in 2015. Let’s see what we all…

  • Award #20 – LEGO Seller of the year

    Award #20 – LEGO Seller of the year

    So we have another new award today. I asked all the panel to pick the best company/site, person etc for their seller of the year. I want to know who they thought gave the best deals etc. All 4 of my fellow judges picked a different seller and I picked the winner from their selection.…

  • Award #19 – Customiser of the year

    Award #19 – Customiser of the year

    6 days and counting….. today is another new award, while we added the custom minifigure of the year. I thought it was only prudent to add customiser of the year. For sites that do more then just minifigures. Custom printed elements are a massive market. In the UK alone we have United Bricks, Firestar Toys/Minifigures.com,…

  • Award #18 – website of the year

    Award #18 – website of the year

    Xmas a week today and it means just 7 more awards to come, this is another new one and I asked the panel to pick their website of the year. This must be a website connected to LEGO be it LEGO owned or a fan owned website. I brought Chris in as both Keith and…

    Award #16 – Original theme of the year

    Only 9 days to go and we are beginning to approach the end of our 2015 awards. It’s definitely been one that has provided some of the most shocking results in recent memory. Today the panel of judges were asked to pick their favourite original theme of the year. This is a theme created by…

  • Award #15 – Book of the year

    Award #15 – Book of the year

    Today we look at books and it has been another strong year for LEGO-related titles with both No Starch Press and DK Publishings both bringing out excellent titles. I myself prefer the more adult-themed titles from No Starch Press, but this year DK have done some really appealing books and I think it was a…

  • Award #14 – App of the year

    Award #14 – App of the year

    2 weeks into the awards and we have another new one to kick off the final school week for many before Xmas. Today we look at the best apps that are connected with LEGO. Truth be told I’m no expert as I’m not a big app user unless it’s social media. I do 98% of…
