I don't think using anything other than brand new bricks that have the tightest most secure fit would successfully stay together for many of this persons builds This one in particular looks to be under a good amount of stress over the entire structure, I'm pretty sure it would fall apart if you used those pink bricks that your cousins toddler chewed on last year 😅
