One that pleasantly surprised me recently with its ingenuity was the botanical bouquet of roses set. The idea to use the coiled whip from Indiana Jones sets as the center of the rose was something I thought was super cool.

[@crimsong8068]

Another unique lipstick use was in the recent buildable Droadeka. It's three sensors are actually backwards lipstick pieces, and because of the dual-molding, the red of them have grey rims. Its crazy what LEGO can do these days.

[@Platinum-db8rc]

Came here to say this. Those lipstick pieces are not easy to get either. I was stoked to get a couple extra in my set.

[@Yhirmirs_Basement]

11:18 what they should have done was use transparent hands to have effect of hands not being there

[@flateo334]

or just taken the hands out

[@gearhead743]

the problem there is that you lose the utility of easily swapping the cloths for the minifigs.

[@Jor__DS]

5:23 The LEGO Harry Potter Years 1 - 4 Videogame already used this technique in the cutscene where Harry & the Dursley's move to the cottage to escape the owls. Yes. I know I talked about a videogame, but most things from the LEGO Videogames can be remade IRL. Also the videogame came out in 2010.

[@elijahtronti8574]

Wait, so I SHOULDN’T have been taking off my minifig’s hands all this time? 😂 But that’s what’s so cool about them, their customizability! I’d change out every piece, hands and hips and accessories and everything to make just the kind of lil guys that I wanted

[@jonothanthrace1530]

I just picked up the LEGO Minecraft set "The Cherry Blossom Garden" which is the first set to feature all three stages of the sniffer as well as the default skin Sunny but the most interesting piece has to be the pale teal standard minifigure head used as part of the pitcher plant. I bet you never expected to see a standard head in a Minecraft set, especially in such a unique color. The two-sided decorated pot with a skull on one side and heart on the other is cool too, hopefully they make more. My set actually came with three extra "cherry blossoms" so I was able to add another patch of pink pedals. Although they're more magenta than pink.

[@aidengiron2169]

[@malcolmdarke5299]

The windscreen from the Sphinx Secret Surprise set (5978, for those who want to know) has wipers printed onto the clear plastic, which is admittedly not really on-theme for this video, but *is* an example of wipers being part of the design.

[@FefioYamkota]

At 3:05, those same lipstick pieces are used for the Droideka's eyes for the 2024 set 75381.

[@Malthebasse]

9:36 This stair technique is also used in the Hogwarts Icons Collector's Edition set (76391) to make the opened pages of a book (I believe Tom Riddle's diary) as well as about 100 1x2 grill bricks for the two books on top of that

[@stephanberger3476]

The stairs technique is also used in the big Gotham City set.

[@KDRCG]

Just to let you know, the Caterham car is one of those wierd british pronunications, Instead of Cat-er-ham it is supposed to be pronounced closer to Kate-rum which is the traditional pronunciation of the town where the company was established.

[@TrevorBorg-j3m]

At 11:08 you can see an all white lipstick on a wall, I’m surprised he missed this since he went over lipstick pieces

[@quickbrick6810]

Another really cool building technique that I found was in the Lego Star Wars 2002 bounty hunter pursuit set. It uses chromed coffee mug pieces for headlights on one of the speaders

[@charles8179]

6:40 there are actually a fair bit of LEGO sets that feature whippers. I have 5 such sets in my collection: 31138 Beach Camper Van, 31108 Caravan Family Holiday, 76924 Mercedes-AMG G 63 & Mercedes-AMG SL 63 and 71456 Mrs. Castillo's Turtle Van. I'm 100% sure I've seen a LEGO city car with such whippers in a LEGO game, so there might very well be more of those out there

The new Mercedes AMGGT speed champions has levers for windshield wipers.

[@TheTrollMastah]

@5:55 the original Ghost Buster’s car is a 1959 Cadillac, and it’s cool because they got that the wipers start from inside and push outside. The second model from the newer movie is a different Cadillac, and the wipers go side to side.

[@EasyMachine]

I bought my mother the ‘Lego Botanicals’ Succulent set for Christmas this year, and I’m actually VERY exited to give it to her. She LOVES Lego, and houseplants, so i figured it was a win win, but the more i hear about the ‘Botanicals’ line, the more exited i get for her to open and build it. 😊 She and i have been bonding over Lego since i was a little girl.

[@michaelwoffindin]

My personal favourite theme, Lego Adventurers, has printed windscreen pieces complete with windscreen wipers. Johnny Thunder's Scorpian Tracker is just one example.

[@shroomzzz]

The headlight assembly in Ecto 1 was on another level. The wine goblets to hold the parabolas! WUH?!? Mike Psiaki is truly a rockstar of Lego design

[@nathangamble125]

@@alccoderonscratch7909 There's a small lip around the hand that locks into a ridge on the inside of the arm, to hold it inside. The more you pull them out and put them back in, the more likely the hand and arm are to get loose or break.

Another really cool building technique that I found was in the 2004 At-At set. It uses minifigure wrench pieces to attach the guns on the head of the walker.

[@catluvr2]

[@ciciu8312]

Lipsticks are also droideka's "eyes"

[@HaggisConsumerProduction]

Yeah

[@TwixedBlocks]

The lipstick piece has also been used for the “eyes” on the 2023 droideka, they look very nice because they actually use the bit of color that comes out of the bottom

[@ruckustherabbit407]

I think the Architecture line has some pretty cool piece usage, my example would be the Las Vegas Skyline set where clear blue rod pieces are being used as water fountains in front of the Bellagio Hotel, giving the illusion of water shooting up like fountain shows at the real hotel. Another example is the use of rear facing headlight bricks for windows on the Capitol Building set.

[@matsoleellenberg4824]

I think two of my favorite reused pieces are 1. In the Horizon Zero Dawn Tallneck set, for the fins along the neck, they use Uruk-hai scimitars from the LotR Helm's Deep Lego set. 2. In the Natural History Museum set, they use Indiana Jones' coiled whip as an Ammonite fossil

[@treystar01]

[@AJ04GD]

The modular building police station set uses grey variants of the minecraft wolf head piece for the roof design

[@SuperMarkerComicBro]

Regarding the windshield wipers, I know 4993 Cool Convertible from 2008 (one of my favorite sets as a kid) had some made from black katanas. That said, they're kinda stuck in place, so they're not going to move like the ones in the video, if that's your qualifier.

[@seahawk124]

The Himeji castle set (21060) has a couple of roller skate pieces. Above archways and entrances. The Trafalgar Square set (21045) uses a similar technique regarding the stairs like in the pyramid of Giza, but those one turn at right angles! I've seen a couple of sets recently creatively using minifigure heads. Could this be an idea for a later video, maybe? In set 21006 the White House uses a transparent minifigure head as a lantern on the Northern side of the building. And in the Star Wars Death Star Trench Run Diorama (75329) a grey minifigure head is used as a piece of greebles on the surface of the trench. I wonder where else minifigure heads have been used in unconventional ways.

[@SupersuMC]

The transparent head as a lantern is actually so common in LEGO sets, especially in the Modular Buildings, that it's POOP at this point.

[@fidan2fast]

I think the reason Lego shows the torso with the hands on is because they have a standard scheme of instructions that they use for every set, only changing colours... Notice the pieces are always shown in the same angle

There's actually quite a handful of lego cars with wipers. One that comes to mind is set 10151

[@magnuskallas]

In the 1980s and early 90s Lego used antenna pieces as windscreen wipers in Model Team theme vehicles at larger scale (for instance Highway Rig from 1986).

I seem to remember a basic Lego set from back when I was a kid, where it had a car with opening doors, a sunroof, and a pair of levers for windshield wipers. It's possible I added the levers myself, since I can't find an exact model number, but it was similar to 6634 in its general design.

[@felixflugel2157]

Interesting how the birds are used. In a set from Jurassic Park; it is based on the scene where Nedry encounters the Dilophosaurus. There is a single white frog piece in the entire set. At first, I thought is was just a frog as scenery in the jungle. But it is actually meant to mimic the cream coming out of the can that belonged to Nedry.

[@Swappr]
