It’s Tuesday on Brickscale Studio and we’re building the LEGO Ideas Gizmo buildable figure, set 21361 with 1,125 pieces. This nostalgic Gremlins set nails the cute factor and uses a smooth SNOT exterior for that plush look. I walk through all 10 bags, show the accessories, and share honest pros and cons, including the early choice between standing vs sitting and the limited articulation.

What you’ll see:

- Set details: LEGO Ideas 21361, 1,125 pieces, 10 numbered bags

- Build techniques: SNOT panels for smooth fur, clever shaping, new “swoop” tile element

- Display options: choose standing or sitting at build time

- Accessories: 3D glasses, optional water droplet element for the back

- Articulation: head turns, arms raise, slight ear movement, legs fixed

- Manual notes: QR for digital instructions and 20 Insider points

- Nostalgia: Gremlins call-backs and “the rules” you shouldn’t break

My take:

- Super cute on display and quick, satisfying build

- Wish you could swap sitting/standing without a partial rebuild

- Limited poseability, but perfect as a shelf piece
