What Ninjago set has this gold and green dragon?

My kid has a partially built gold and green dragon figure made of LEGO bricks. It has large green wings, a gold body with scale-like patterns, and a movable jaw. There are also some ninja minifigures — one in green and one in black. We lost the instructions during our last move. Can anyone tell me which Ninjago set this dragon is from so I can download the instructions?

LEGO City police station — which version is this?

I have what appears to be a LEGO City police station that's partially disassembled. It has a jail cell with a breakaway wall feature, a helicopter landing pad on the roof, and blue and white building elements. There are police minifigures with printed vests and a police motorcycle. The station seems fairly large — maybe 700-800 pieces?

Mystery medieval minifigures — what set do these belong to?

Found 6 minifigures in a box: there's a knight with silver armor and a red dragon shield, a blacksmith with a hammer, what looks like a king with a crown, a hooded archer figure, and two soldier-type figures with helmets. They all seem to be from the same medieval/castle-themed set. Any ideas?

Need instructions for a vintage 1980s LEGO space set

I found my old LEGO space set from the mid-1980s in my parents' attic. It has blue and gray pieces with transparent yellow windshield elements. I think it might be from the Classic Space theme. I can't find the set number anywhere on the pieces. Is there a way to get instructions for a set this old? LEGO.com doesn't seem to have instructions from the 80s.

How I use LEGO Technic to teach my kids real engineering

I'm a mechanical engineer and I've been using LEGO Technic sets to teach my three kids (ages 8, 11, and 14) real engineering concepts. We started with the simpler sets — gear ratios with the small cars, then moved to differential gears with the larger car models. My 14-year-old just finished the Lamborghini Sián (42115) and can now explain how a sequential gearbox works better than some of my college students. The beauty of Technic is that everything is visible — you can see exactly how the gears mesh and transfer motion. I've started a small after-school LEGO engineering club at their school. Best parenting decision I ever made.

Found a complete UCS Star Destroyer at Goodwill for $15

I still can't believe this happened. I was browsing the toy section at Goodwill and spotted a huge bag of gray LEGO pieces. Something about the distinctive wedge-shaped pieces caught my eye. I took a chance and bought the bag for $15. When I got home, I sorted through everything and realized it was a near-complete LEGO Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer UCS (75252). Only missing about 20 small pieces — which I ordered from BrickLink for $8. This set retails for $700 and I got it for $23 total. Used LegoFinder's AI to confirm the identification. I'm still in shock.

Red Technic Ferrari — is this the Daytona SP3?

I'm looking at a partially built red Technic car. It's clearly a Ferrari based on the badge piece, and it looks like it has butterfly doors. There are a LOT of pieces — this seems like a big set. The red and black color scheme is striking. Is this the Ferrari Daytona SP3 or one of the other Technic Ferraris?

Lost instructions for Hogwarts Express Collectors Edition — any tips?

I bought the LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express Collectors' Edition (76405) second-hand and it came without the instruction booklet. This set has over 5,000 pieces and the digital instructions on LEGO.com are 500+ pages. Has anyone found a good way to follow such long digital instructions? Any tips for organizing the build? I'm feeling overwhelmed just looking at the bag count.
