Celebrating Classics: Bill and Mary 2023

My fondest childhood Lego memory has to be Ideas Book 6000. Released in 1980, it focused on 2 minifigures (Bill and Mary) as they travelled around Lego Town before being whisked off by a spaceship to explore Classic Space and then going back in time to the era of the Yellow Castle. I loved recreating the many models in the book and Bill and Mary minifigs have featured in most of my lego towns (made using some of the torso stickers from the Ideas Book)

However, I think that after 43 years of exciting adventures, now the time has come for them to settle down and retire so they’ve headed to the country and built a cottage based on the first home they ever built together… here they can reminisce as they enjoy nature and have a well deserved rest.

The cottage has an interior featuring mementos of past adventures and includes modern features such as solar panels, a satellite dish and a smoke alarm (Their first house caught fire in the ideas book!)
