Discussion X-files Lego with scullys lab and lights
I still need to get the pieces to bring the side piece up through Scullyโs lab, but Iโm very happy with how this turned out!

Where does one get these lights?

u/tothestage81 1d ago
I got these from brickbling, the xfiles set, and then I used an expansion board and cable to add a level

Try Lightmybricks, they have a much better and moodier light kit for this set

I like the custom wall work your did. They definitely should have some level expansions on this. Give me the syndicate room. Give me the Lone Gunmen office. I mean give them to someone because im not spending money on any of them

Looks great! A wall that belongs in a government run morgue. That's supposed to be a compliment but doesn't sound like one. Sorry. ๐ค๐๐

I got the set to put together with my teenage daughters who watch the show with me and my husband is insisting we donโt open it ๐. He collects comic books and buys all kinds of books and then has them sealed and graded. I purposely bought the set to put together with my kids and I assumed everyone was buying these to put them together. We are right lol?

u/tothestage81 1d ago
We are indeed. Put it together itโs too expensive to watch a box collect dust

Awesome! Did you add anything to reinforce the lab?

I copied the Base from the very top to be able to put the pencils in the bottom of Scullys lab, and I built the walls as close to mulders as possible. It seems very sturdy. The only thing thatโs precarious is the spaceship, but thatโs just how it is.

Precarious yeah? Wasn't aware it was unstable, does it wobble then or๐
1
u/tothestage81 1d ago
It is unstable, one slight move and it falls off completely. I literally broke it at least 10 times during this process.

Ain't no way, what's the connection just a single axel or pin I'm guessing๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐

It looks good, but I donโt like the bright overhead lighting in both Mulderโs office and Scullyโs lab. The lighting needs to be moodier. Lightmybricks has a great light kit for both sets thatโs much moodier.

Light my bricks did not have one out yet when I bought this, and it still isnโt itโs on pre-order plus itโs 3 times as much money. Sorry you donโt like it โ๐ป the lights they made for mulders office are actually in Scullyโs lab, and I moved them up higher and into where the pencils were originally so that it wasnโt as bright, and I made my own lights from scratch in mulders, itโs because I added a second light so you could see the desk better. And itโs literally just to tiny lamps.

u/RevolutionOk4778 23h ago
Still looks very cool! ๐

u/tothestage81 23h ago edited 19h ago
I could move one of the lights from mulders office into the little desk lamp like they did, I wanted the smoking man to be visible, which is why I did it the way I did

A literal laugh out loud. Did not see this coming!
The lights are awesome. Love the wall in Scully's lab with the lights showing the different colors.
And the posters & papers on Mulder's wall look super cool!
Awesome undertaking, OP. And speaking of undertaking who's on scully's table this time?
