CLAAS XERION Lego 42054



Got it on sale $50 off regular price.

Great build.

Somehow, I managed to miss one of the white slip gears and didn't notice until I had completely finished. Had to take the entire front end apart to get it in.

Wish it had a little more motorized functionality... The crane is mostly manually operated.
The alternate build looks about the same.

I mainly bought it because it seemed like a good deal with the sale.


Dr. Strange - 95%



Fantastic visuals. Really made the buildings seam alive.
Great character development.

Marvel has retold the same story so many times they have about perfected it.
1. Egotistical successful to be hero.
2. Something bad happens to set to be hero back.
3. To be hero goes through some trial to get / master powers.
4. There is an infinity stone.
5. Hero saves the world / galaxy.
And random comedy relief throughout.

Royal Tenenbaums - 90%



All-star cast. Owen Wilson, Ben Stiller, and Bill Murray and my favorites.

Neat story. Felt like there was always so much going on.

Lots of little hidden stuff in the back ground to make it worth re-watching.

Different kind of humor, more dry / tragic / weird.

Doom - 90%



Bought this on black Friday steam sale and managed to get through it by Sunday.
Finished on the "Hurt me Plenty" mode.

Fun game but super gory and a lot of satanic.
The glory kill mechanic was really repetitive with the cut scenes.
I hate platform jumping. There wasn't a ton but it was enough to irk me.

It felt like there was plenty of content.
Glad I didn't have to pay full price.
