Now I’m going to be a builder for maybe a half hour-45 minutes and then I’m going to take a break and come back when I’m ready to rock again. None of this bag one, two and three all opened and just dumped into a huge pile! Instead: Step one open up the bag. Don’t open all the bags at once of course, just a single step bag at a time. Once all the pieces are out you need to get them nice and organized and grouped together, so they are easy to find when they show up in the instruction booklet. Doing this helps keep everything organised, highly visible and helps avoid going “piece blind”. In the LEGO world it means arranging the elements by colour, type, or how I personally prefer it, by element and color combined.

To help you in your debate as to whether this newest set, based on The Ghostbusters movie is worth it or not, I’ll help break it down for you.
