Bricks and Minifigs?

Anyone else following all the controversy? The whole thing is kind of infuriating. But it’s like a train wreck I can’t turn away from.

Looks like, despite having some allegedly crooked cops on their side, they're probably cooked if this ends up in court, with companies such as Patreon now supporting Reckless Ben (Patreon declined to take down Ben's Patreon and literally told Bricks and Minifigs to "stuff it"). It looks like the family whose Lego collection was stolen is probably going to be made whole by Reckless Ben's GoFundMe, which is also great.

I was not.

Reading about it, I think it has gone beyond "controversy" at this point. It sounds like several people ought to go to jail.

Oh God, now I have to Google it.

Bens YouTube video on it is long but very entertaining.

Bens YouTube video on it is long but very entertaining.

I mean, entertaining if corrupt policework is your jam.

Was aware, some sensationalism and attention seeking from Ben, and while injustices are always infuriating, I've got no dog in this fight. BaM might be a huge deal in your country, but in mine it's a non-factor. Still, hope the family receives justice and some change does happen.

I did not see any link to see what was going on, so here is the Wiki on it.

TLDR is that one person sold their company and the other person is not giving the Legos back.

Lengthy video on it: . Messy.
