When I was little one of my favorite toys was a Lego set of pieces which I used to build just about anything, from a house for my dolls to a supersonic spaceship. This is probably the reason why I was delighted to discover a digital version of that good old Lego box.
Lego Digital Designer provides you with a huge amount of Lego pieces of all sorts and sizes with which you can build anything you can come up with. Besides free creation, you can also use pre-rendered 3D figures included in Lego Digital Designer, either for editing them or for taking them as models for your own designs.
The program displays a 3D working area to place pieces than can be panned, zoomed or moved in any direction to get a better view of your creation. Just bear in mind that you need to be extremely accurate with your mouse and move the working area a lot in order to get pieces in the appropriate spot.
Pieces are selected from a floating menu: you'll find them conveniently organized by categories and grouped by size. And you know what? They're endless, like in any child's dream! Once your work of Lego-art is done, you can upload to an online gallery or even order it in real Lego pieces.
Lego Digital Designer enables you to build anything with Lego on your PC and share it online.
- Hundreds of pieces to choose from
- Includes built models to get you started
- Great 3D designing environment
- Requires extreme mouse accuracy

With Digital Designer, you can build anything in your imagination using virtual bricks, right on your computer.
This version has increased stability and a brand new set of LEGO elements for you to build with. You can also print out an inventory of your creation and take it to any LEGOLAND theme park or LEGO Store and purchase the pieces you need to turn your virtual model into a reality!
"LDD 4.2.5 offers more, but is its purpose lost?"

I've been using LDD since version 3.0 years ago. I've always enjoyed making my own Lego sets, and I even got to buy one for my birthday. But, its gone now. No longer can you price your creation or buy it. You are contained to the program. The only workaround is to buy bricks off Pick a Brick on the LEGO site, but it is complicated and difficult to know what to buy. If you heard about this product for its ability to make real Lego sets, it's too late now.
- -nice interface
- -wide range of LEGO bricks
- -works with making blueprints with bricks and LEGO Mindstorm sets
- -great for both old and new Lego Fans

- -3d engine does not simulate gravity, if you manage to build something in real life it may collapse
- -No DesignByMe, so you cannot order full, customized sets like before
- -installation and loading times may take long on older computers
