Top 10 Designer Lego Creations

When  most adults think of Lego creations, they picture playing with simple toys as a child.  What you may not know is that there are some very challenging creations to be made by not only children but adults as well.

1. 5893 Off Road Power – This impressive off road vehicle is literally prepared for just about anything.  It has working steering and a solid suspension to handle nearly any obstacle.  The self-winding winch will enable you to pull yourself out of a jam or if you encounter rough terrain, you can always hop on the quad bike that you’re towing behind you.  This is one of the newest and hottest Lego creations because you can also opt to build a dune buggy or a truck with a digger instead.

2. 6754 Family Home – This classic looking family home comes with plenty of thoughtful details such as a bird bath, shutters, awning, picnic bench and a terrace are.  This 3-in-1 building experience allows you to turn the home into a Mediterranean-inspired villa or a charming bungalow.

3. 6751 Fiery Legend – This is one of the top-picked Lego creations for obvious reasons.  Who doesn’t love a fire-breathing dragon that has moveable wings, arms and legs?  You can choose to transform it into a powerful warrior with a hammer and shield or a mystical oriental dragon as well.

4. 6747 Race Rider – This has become one of the hottest Lego creations quickly.  You can build this super sports bike that comes equipped with working steering and suspension and then rebuild it into a powerful dragster or a chopper.

5. 5891 Apple Tree House – This 3-in-1 experience builds not only a classic family house but a relaxing summer house or a tall townhouse as well.  There are a lot of details included such as a working mailbox, lawnmower, satellite dish and even a ladder to the attic hidden under the roof.

6. 5868 Ferocious Creatures – The fact that you can make three different spectacular creatures puts this on the list of top Lego creations.  First you can build a ferocious green crocodile, equipped with a large articulated tail and completely movable legs and feet.  You can even open and close the jaw with a lever.  Then you can transform it into a deep sea fish or a dinosaur.

7. 6743 Street Speeder – This green sporty street machine has doors that open and it is sure to grab attention.  Of course, you could build a speedy race car or a cool hot rod instead.

8. 6745 Propeller Power – This is another one of the newer Lego creations that is making many wish lists pretty fast.  Build a propeller-powered airplane that comes equipped with landing gear and then rebuild it into a helicopter or harrier jet.

9. 6752 Fire Rescue – This red firetruck even has a rescue ladder that rotates 360 degrees.  It comes equipped with an opening roof and water cannon too.  Rebuild the firetruck into an off road vehicle or a very detailed fire rescue helicopter.
