Custom LEGO Marvel Sanctum Sanctorum Showdown Modular Showcase (76108)

[@GJBricks]

Be sure to check out the newest version of this MOC! It's bigger and better than ever! kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2e6ZGmsm82DY8k

[@riccardoviero5248]

Wooow!! It’s look like the new original set of Sanctum Sanctorum 76218!!!

[@theroaringbricks]

This is really awesome and the best MOC of the Sanctum Sanctorum I have seen so far. I especially like how you created a real corner building instead of having a cutout corner like the LEGO set does. Great work!

[@AFOLTV]

Awesome build!!

[@natnorth]

Looks amazing dude! Really nice size for modular cities and great use of the extra sanctum set pieces!

[@GJBricks]

Thanks a ton! I enjoyed making it, but I'm planning to re-visit and update a few parts. Been considering another floor as well for bedrooms and kitchen... Not sure if it'd be too much but I feel it wound justify it. What do you think?

[@natnorth]

@@GJBricks thanks for the reply! I personally think another floor with living space would be amazing and with the roof on, next to modulars, it would only add to how grand the Sanctum is! Look forward to seeing the video for the update :)

[@petew2813]

i would love for u to do a more in-depth look at the build process, specifically that angled side. i really love the way it turned out!

[@josephd27]

Wow that Looks very nice GJBRICKS. So much going on with details

[@josephd27]

Wow that was a fast heart lol

[@GJBricks]

Lol! I was checking something else when you commented! Glad you liked it. Think I finally made reality what I'd been planning all along. Some big challenges in the build which were good, new challenges for me. Got some more refinement planned but so happy with how it turned out!

[@brickarranger2319]

Looks great. I like the gray wings.

[@GJBricks]

Thanks! The weren't too as bad as I made out, but I changed them for black and it looks better IMO. Will share that video when I've made a few more improvements! Thanks for watching!

[@brickarranger2319]

@@GJBricks looking forward to seeing it.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

That looks very impressive. The basic building really scales up well. I think it's the stone on the ground floor and the columns. It looks very old fashioned and sturdy. Well done. I still haven't decided what to do with mine. I must be the only person who wants to remove the Sanctorum theme and make it generic!

[@GJBricks]

I kept the Sanctum theme but was really done to look more normal from the outside and keep the exciting stuff inside. Think it looks quite inconspicuous bar the round window (and Spider-Man). Lol! I think the LEGO designers are doing better and better designs of these kinds of sets. Think it’s come heavily from the creator line. I do think I’ll trim the bottom a little more than it is though. Look forward to seeing how you un-sanctum the set 😃

[@RobinHoodBricks]

@@GJBricks Do also check out the older Spider-man sets for some cool building ideas!

[@AussieBricks]

How did I only just stumble onto this!? Awesome mic build right here??

[@GJBricks]

That means my SEO is bad on it! Have to adjust it! Planning to update it soon with some new details and adjust those huge stairs.

[@GJBricks]

I'm going to be adding some more detail and doing a follow-up "review" of this MOC, so if you have suggestions, I'd love you to leave a comment below! Also, I meant to say "Ebony Maw".

[@BlackGloveBricks]

Love the way you put this together! Thanks for sharing!

[@GJBricks]

Thanks for watching!

[@jesseslego]

This looks awesome as a modular! So much detail, great work!

[@GJBricks]

Thank you! Glad you liked it! My most ambitious moc yet. I do want to revisit and add more details.

[@jesseslego]

GJBricks definitely! I can’t wait to see your future developments on this one! 😁

[@gtortillaz21]

Incredible moc!!! Very insperational for me!!!

[@GJBricks]

Glad you liked it! For me it worked really well with the space I have. There's bigger ones out there but budget and space said no to that. I am planning to add another floor and revisit the roof top as well as shrink the staircase a little so there's more room on the ground floor. Are you planning to make one yourself?

[@gtortillaz21]

@@GJBricks Yeah, I'm hoping to get the actual set for Christmas because I missed out on it when it came out.

[@MakroBricks]

niiicce! a corner version, very cool so much detail packed inside. i must say that tree out front adds a lot of curb appeal to the whole moc over all.

[@GJBricks]

Thanks for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the MOC. This is something I've had in my head ever since I bought that set. Feel it works perfectly with my Modulars as well! And the tree just made that corner feel better - although a subway entrance is an option too!

[@BlockHeadUK]

You have combined these two together very well, it makes a lovely looking corner block. 👍

[@GJBricks]

Thanks Caz! Took me a bit of time and learning some new tricks to make it work the way I wanted but think it works well, especially the grand staircase and 1st floor! Very happy with how it's gone so far! (more planned at some point, but moving onto other MOCs now).

[@ItsGqad117]

THIS IS THE BEST MOC OMG GOOD JOB

[@GJBricks]

Thank you!!! I’m going to re-work the interior a bit and thinking about another floor. What do you think and did I miss anything?

[@liamwilliams1794]

Looks great. You’ve given me some ideas for my sanctum.

[@GJBricks]

Thank you! I’m pretty proud of it. Want to adjust the interior. Considering one more floor too

[@felipechan]

holy molly, this is epic! The stairs just spectacular and you also integrated the Dr.Strange set into it. OMG, this is inspirational!

[@GJBricks]

Awesome comment! Thank you! It's been on my mind for ages, but I really wanted that ground floor to set the scene for the rest of the building and was inspired by the role the staircase played in the movies! Thanks for watching!

[@DrMcBrick]

Ughhhhh....thank GOODNESS you finished it! LOL. Just KIDDING my friend. I have to say that you knocked it out of the park!! An awesome, fabulous, fantastic Version of the Sanctum. Fabulous details and that stair case - sweet! The corner - great! The spiral staircase - awesome. I can’t say enough. Congrats on a great build!

[@GJBricks]

Thanks Doc! It took me a while to realise what I had in my head but think it was so worth it! And don't forget the hidden toilet under the stairs! It's actually a colourful one because I borrowed the one from my Unikitty Rollercoaster set! Will do a full detail tour soon as I packed a lot into it! Thanks for watching and supporting my LEGO addiction!

[@ahmadraiyan7375]

Really love it. is there an instruction that you made? i really wanna build it

[@GJBricks]

Sorry, I built this from my head. I generally build that way rather than planning it out first.

[@BrickBakery]

A very nice interior - I like the way you've made the grand staircase and the balcony fit together. The way you've integrated the other Sanctum set is great too - very nicely done! It's a nice modular version of the set. I think you did a great job and I agree that this is a pretty unique version of it - not sure I've seen too many (if any) corner builds of this! Great job GJ - looking forward to the next video and also to see what you'll de with the other half of these sets! :-D

[@GJBricks]

Glad you liked it! Labour of love this one and very happy with how it's turned out! Getting the balcony and the stairs working like that took a few tried to get right, but I think it really sets the scene for entering the building! And the size and shape fits my city perfectly I think and it's got a spot right at the front of the city. Thanks for the support! Now onto the next Moc(s)!

[@BrickBakery]

GJBricks I’m sure it’ll look great in your city - it will be interesting to see in the next update :-)

[@lilmacbricks741]

Wow it looks fantastic! Great work!! Thanks for sharing!

[@GJBricks]

Glad you liked it! This one has been a labour of love for me. It’s such a great set in the first place and I just love the Marvel universe. So this captured a lot of what’s great about it for me! Thanks for watching!

[@MATTYOGLE77]

Excellent, this is my favourite Sanctum MOC so far. Subbed.

[@GJBricks]

That’s praise indeed! Thank you so much. This is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time with this set. Was originally just going to join the two parts but this way feels much more complete and epic! So your comment makes me feel like I did it justice!

[@liamwilliams1794]

Great work. Im planning on making a modular sanctum sanctorum myself soon. You've given me a lot of great ideas.

[@GJBricks]

Glad to have inspired you! It’s a set that is crying out for something like this. I’ve got some updates to make so I’ll do a follow up review video. Was there any detail I missed?

[@GalaGade2021]

Wow Greg this is an awesome moc I loved the corner aspect of it and very very nice grand entrance staircase as well loved it...❤️👍❤️ I can see why you loved this so much ❤️❤️

[@GJBricks]

Thanks @GalaGade! This is something that made me happy building and showing it! Now to build my next MOC! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TheBluenyt09]

Wow! I love what you did with the place 😎😎👏👏👏💪💪💪

[@GJBricks]

Ha ha! Thanks! Need remodelling. Think it worked pretty well. Still on the fence about tiling the ground floor though. What do you think?

[@TheBluenyt09]

@@GJBricks I think tiling it will make it more awzum 😎 👍

[@barry2919]

Hey GJBricks, you´ve done it very well, more impressive than the normal version. nice elements & gadgets, like a real Creator Expert Version!! Maybe i can improve my own Sanctum...

[@Gbricks]

Wow this is great,love the design,I like the exterior,mostly that angled wall ,you’ve made a good set,AWESOME,keep it up greg ,your the bomb

[@GJBricks]

Thank you for the amazing comment! It was a excellent set to start with. Really happy with how it looks now though! Just feels like the set I always wanted. Now to start in a New York City apartment inspired moc!

[@Gbricks]

GJBricks ,thanks,morning,or should I say evening for you ,that would be great

[@RogueTransformations]

Some very interesting aspects to this build, Greg. The round window is something that strikes me as a very likeable feature although I might have personally tried having the glass the same angle as the roof. But that's just me. The shaping of the stairwell has been done well - I appreciate that. The modular layers work - they connect well with the stair points but also allow some breathing room for playability. I even liked the tree! Thumbs up from me. 👍😀

[@GJBricks]

Thank you sir! I agree on the window. How it is now is actually how it was mounted in the original set. I'm thinking I might redo those angled roofs in the sand green as that's closer to the movie and then try to re-engineer that window angle. It's a nice piece though (and I have a 2nd once for something else!). And it was a close run thing with the space, I felt it really needed that "statement" entrance. I'd have liked to make the building 2 studs bigger in each direction, but parts bin and budget said no - and tbh, I think it's a good size overall. And I've been working on my trees. Got a couple of styles I've been using, and this is the simpler one. Thanks for watching and the great comment!

[@gojiking5456]

This set looks awesome! I would say, the only things needed to add onto the set, is a few modifications at the roof, now that "Endgame" has since released! I would love to see the Ancient One and Banner having an encounter up top!

[@GJBricks]

Thank you! And I totally agree! I'm going to be revisiting it. I want to change the interior ground floor to probably makes the stairs a little smaller so I can add more in. Then detail it better. And the roof was never right. Really need to revisit it. I had actually considered adding another floor too. But that might be too much. What do you think?

[@gojiking5456]

@@GJBricks Opening up the interior sounds like a great idea! More room for little wizard knick-knacks. But, I think another level to the building could work out well, if done right. In fact, we know that there is a room in the sanctum full of relics & artifacts in glass cases. Same room where Strange gets his Cape! As for the roof, absolutely!! In all honesty, a revisiting of this piece would be a welcome edition in any regard ❤

[@musicbinderpro8903]

Wow! Great work! I love it. I love the original set and this one is way better! You did a great job on details, the stairways are beautiful. Congratulations :)

[@GJBricks]

That is good praise! Thank you! And likewise I always like the original one, but felt it lent itself to being more than just adding floors between the buildings. And really wanted to make a statement with that entrance! Think it worked!

[@somekid1869]

That looks awesome mate! Great job!

@@GJBricks Yes you should be. I always like it when builds have realistic minifigure fixtures and fittings so to speak. 😀

[@theerikssonfamily]

Super MOC! Congrats! The tree adds so much to this build, I love it!

[@GJBricks]

Thanks Lasse! When I was finishing the tiling, that corner really felt like it needed something, and a tree was it! Might make it a little smaller though, was just one I had spare. Glad you enjoyed it! Was a very fun and challenging build!

[@joeymatthews3576]

Love this moc! I've been hoping to do something similar myself

[@GJBricks]

Thanks! It was something I’d been itching to do and I don’t have the space nor budget to do a huge one so this was perfect! I do need to revisit it as there’s some bit like the roof that could be better and I want to make the stairs a little smaller

[@the-lego-collector]

Dude EPIC!!!!!!!! That moc looks great

[@GJBricks]

Thank you! It's been a labour of love for me, but I think it's pretty good (so far!). Got more planned although requires bricks to do so will move onto another MOC and come back to this one! Thanks for watching and supporting!

[@gonkbricks1453]

for that angol roof you could put a stud benith a pannel piece

[@GJBricks]

I'm actually considering rebuilding the sloped roofs in the sand green as that's closer to the movie colours - but I don't think they do some of the pieces needed in that colour so it'll be mixed with Black. Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into it.

[@thatonelatvianguy4858]

*That is sooo cool!!!* 🤩🤩🤩

[@thebrokebrick7755]

Brilliant! I've been sitting on a second Sanctum set wanting to do something similar myself! Now I have a direction! Subscribed!

[@tdr240sx]

Love the Tree Greg!! Wow that makes my MOC look Bad LOL !!! Looks amazing i Love the stair case amazing !!!

[@GJBricks]

It doesn’t at all! Glad you liked my first big Moc effort. Very pleased with how the stairs came out! Not an easy thing to get the shape right on! Looking forward to seeing your moc!

[@bricksonthinice9338]

It is an amazing MOC, beautiful details, clever use of parts. Even though the grand staircase is beautiful indeed, I like more the smaller one. The technique you used. Maybe you should try tiling up the interior floors too? It might give a more complete look. Like it is now it is also fantastic.

[@GJBricks]

Thanks for the comment! The stairs are big but I just loved it. I could make them steeper so it looses one or two steps - one being the wisest one - which will make it take up less space. That way I can add a little more furniture to that lower level. I think the middle floor is perfect as is though. And I’m debating the tiling and what colours to use. Glad you liked it! Was a great fun build.

[@MrPolleyr]

I love your design, great job! I just finished my Moc of these sets (2). I went with a 32x24 deep, on a full baseplate. I used the two circular windows on the front and spaced equally apart.I have the large staircase (not curved) and a single set to the top floor. I made mine into my cities Museum. I had a printed 1x8 printed brick with the word Museum on it.👍

[@GJBricks]

Thank you! I’m planning to revisit this and adjust the inside ground floor (staircase is too big). Have considered adding a 4th floor which would be more inline with the movies then. Yours sounds good. Is it on your channel?

[@MrPolleyr]

@@GJBricks .....I don’t have a channel. I’ve been thinking about it. Actually, I bought a GoPro type camera a couple of months ago, but I haven’t even taken it out of the box yet.

[@chipsbeltran]

Hi! Great work! Just got my Sanctum today and I also have the other smaller one. Did you just use all pieces from both sets with the sanctum sanctorum set doubled? Or you added a lot of other bricks that weren't on both sets?

[@GJBricks]

I added a lot of extra bricks especially to do the interior and back. Didn’t keep track. Was a labour of love for me. And I’m going to be upgrading it soon.

[@platvis6436]

Where did you buy yours because i'm thinking of buying it but on the lego site it is sold out or not getting sold anymore

[@Sirenhound]

Avengers: Endgame has a scene on the roof with The Ancient One and The Hulk. Could provide some inspiration.

[@GJBricks]

I haven't seen it, but that sounds like good inspiration! Will check that out for sure! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@GJBricks]

Thank you! I’ll be doing another video on it in the new year with some more details. Glad you liked it 😃

[@skywarp2414]

Wow! Awsome moc. I find the stair opening on the 2nd floor a little too wide. Besides that it is amazing👍. Love that Cthulu demon type on the top floor.😈

[@GJBricks]

Do you mean the stairs themselves or the width of the balcony? It's all designed around a 6 wide plate although I might make the stairs slightly steeper and remove the bottom step to save a little space on that floor (and tile the ground floor). Pleased you loved it! Was so much fun to build!

@@GJBricks the balcony. Could be at least 1 stud smaller from all sides. Gives more floor space for the level itself.

[@GJBricks]

Ground floor? Yeah I was debating tiling it somehow.

[@WellnessMelissa]

realy cool

[@GJBricks]

Thank you! I’m pretty happy with this moc. I’m planning to revisit it to add another floor - in the movies it’s 4 floors. Would love to make it bigger on the base too. That might be another project. Lol

[@RobinHoodBricks]

To get that 45 degree corner, did you (ahem) cheat a little? Does it bow out at the top? Just trying to figure it out!

[@GJBricks]

I cheated ever so slightly but not much. The plate style flat hinges I used are ever so slightly under tension. But not much. Got the size big enough to minimise it. And the middle floor is using just a single round stud at ground level

[@RobinHoodBricks]

@@GJBricks Fair enough. It looks great!

[@malikhussain6211]

No but jc would say it needs tiles

[@GJBricks]

It does indeed! Actually, I’m going to modify the stairs slightly to have a smaller footprint (steeper and narrower). Then tile that floor. Also more room for details that way too!

Hide the gears by building a false chimney with masonry bricks. Build it so you can break it away to turn the gears.
