Lego Coastguard - the Movie

Sponsored Post

The nice people at Carcraft have challenged a few bloggers to get creative with a Lego set and make our own movies! We were sent the Coastguard 4x4 with speed boat. My son and I (well mostly I) had fun making it yesterday:


Lego City Coastguard 4x4 and Speed Boat
