Street Mod Garage Features

The Street Mod Garage is part of Lumibricks Street Fusion theme and replicates an 70s to 80s style American style independent two storey garage clad in gray and red bricks. It features an opening front door and a swing up custom printed garage door.  One cannot miss the giant wheel next to all the printed signage including a graphic Roar Wild banner, as well as the logo Built For Speed Customs.  The garage apparently belongs to the Street Machine Club.  

The side of the building looks fantastic with all of the industrial features.  Ducting for the HVAC unit can be found outside.  There is a small balcony that opens up from the second floor. Below that is the service entrance with a graffiti covered window next to it.  The Street Fusion themed sets usually feature a lot more grafitti on the buildings, but the garage doesn't feature much at all.  For recreation, there's a small basketball and hoop for letting off steam.  The ladder was placed on the roof in the set instructions, but I've moved it down to the ground floor instead.

The opposite side of the garage is fairly non-descript with only a bank of windows to break up the monotony of gray bricks.

The two toned rear wall of the garage can be removed for easy access to the interior.

With the wall removed one can see that the garage consists of a work area, a set of ramps and an upper mezzanine.  The work area houses a compressor and various cabinets and vehicle parts.  Next to the ramps is a wall of storage units.

More parts storage can be found on the inside of the rear wall.   There is a small staircase that leads from the mezzanine to the rooftop.

Here's a better look at the interior layout of the Street Mod Garage.

The bright white light fixture looks exactly like flourescent lighting!

Here's the rooftop layout as I was building the garage.  It's dominated by a giant skylight.  There's a cool seating area that is made up of the front end of a vintage car.  I guess this is where the mechanics go to relax, have some grub and listen to some tunes on the radio.

For even more playability, the entire front wall of the garage can be removed for interior access and display.   This is definitely a unique and cool feature to this set,  And if you're wondering, yes a vehicle can definitely fit inside the garage!

Here's the sports car that is included with the street mod garage.  It has a sloped front end and a giant wing reminiscent of a 1970s Dodge Daytona or Plymouth Superbird.  The car can be modified and customised with extra parts.

I decided to convert mine into a convertible and replaced the gold rims with some black rims!

In addition to the sports car, you also get these cool little parts carts, three in total.

As with all of the Lumibricks sets, you get some custom minifigures, and the Street Mod Garage includes four new figures, two guys and two gals, great for all you Lumibricks minifigure collectors!  Between all of the removable walls, printed pieces, the garage accessories, the custom car and the minifigures, this is an awesome set to create your own little scenes and dioramas.  So much play value in this set!

So you saw some of the interior lighting features, now let's look at the exterior lighting. One look and you can instantly recognize that it's a Lumibricks set!

Build experience and quality

Piece quality is what you’d expect from a well-made third-party Lego compatible kit: clutch is good, ABS feels solid, and parts inventory is generous. Because the model uses a lot of printed elements and small decor pieces, the build is as much about micro-assembly as macro-structure — lots of small bags and little bits to track. The instructions are available as a PDF on Lumibricks’ site (handy if you want to preview steps before you buy).  In fact, as a first, I decided to use the online instructions from the Lumibricks website instead of using the thick manual that is included with the set, during my garage build.

I would point out there is one tricky area of construction and that is the wireless connector in behind where the large sign sits. If you don't have the connection point orientated correctly or pushed down firmly, the overhang light over the front sign won't light up.  I encountered this problem myself and you just have to take your time and troubleshoot it.

Modifications

This doesn't typically apply to most builders and collectors of Lumibricks sets, but I always like to do little enhancements to the sets that I build.   The first noticeable thing I did was using a raised baseplate or MILS plate for the base of the garage.  I find that it makes the set more rigid and sturdy and makes it easier to move around.

Initially I built the sidewalk area as per the instructions, but later I decided to remove the crack in the sidewalk.  Another enhancement was adding door knobs to the doors where applicable.  

Finally, I decided to move the hub where all the lighting wires are connected from the rooftop down to the mezzanine area inside the building.  The reason being is that I don't use the provided battery pack to power the lights on my sets.  Instead I will connect my sets to a USB extension cable that is connected to a power supply from the wall.

Final Verdict and Recap

The Lumibricks Street MOD Garage (L9088) is a stand-out set that one must add to a Lego style city layout.

The set contains roughly 1,935 pieces, is sized perfectly to sit on a 32×32 stud baseplate, and includes 18 printed pieces, a multi-element LED kit (the product page lists seven LED lights). It also includes a dedicated car model with tuning/upgrade parts and garage accessories, with four minifigures.

It's a great set for Lumibricks fans that love the Street Fusion series and people who love to photograph the details of the sets like I do.

Reviewing the latest Neon City Cyberpunk set, Lumibricks L9095 Game Stack!

 

Creativity meets Technology!

The Lumibricks Cyberpunk Game Stack (model L9095) emerges as a beacon of innovation. Released in September 2025 as part of Lumibricks' Neon City series, this Lego compatible set reimagines the modular building block genre with a cyberpunk twist, blending towering urban stacks with an integrated LED lighting system that transforms a static model into a pulsating neon spectacle. 

Lumibricks, formerly known as FUNWHOLE, has carved a niche since its inception by pioneering light-up brick sets that go beyond traditional construction toys like Lego. The Game Stack builds on this legacy, targeting fans of dystopian sci-fi worlds—think *Blade Runner* meets arcade nostalgia—while appealing to adult collectors who crave display-worthy models with functional flair. 

The Lumibricks Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale is now on!

From November 20th through to December 1st, all products on their website will receive a  20% discount, with select items offering up to 30% off! Check out all of their awesome sets here:

Let's review the unboxing, build process, design elements, and playability to see if this might be a set you'd be interested in getting.

UnBoxing

Upon opening, you're greeted by several brick bags numbered 1 through 14,  five instruction booklets—four modular guides plus a main one,  and a boxed LED lighting kit.  The haul totals 2,580 high-quality ABS plastic pieces, including 37 pre-printed bricks with UV and pad-printing techniques that deliver crisp details—no flimsy stickers here, a common gripe in budget sets. 

The real stars, however, are the 23 LED components: flexible neon tubes, color-changing strips, flashing acrylic panels, and rotating floor lights, all powered via USB or AA batteries (a removable pack adds versatility). Included lighting accessories include tweezers, and a brick separator.   Batteries not included.

Four detailed minifigures are included with one that is fully translucent.

The Build

The Game Stack consists of a raised baseplate, a tall elevator shaft and a large skeletal frame structure upon which several colourful modules or pods are connected.

The Baseplate

The raised baseplate houses various lighting elements such as neon tubes and flashing LED lights. Delicate wires are hidden in the baseplate to deliver power to the rest of the structure.  It's strongly recommended that you test each of the lighting elements either before construction or step by step as you go to make sure you don't encounter any defective components.   On the rare occasion that this might happen, Lumibricks will send you a replacement part if you contact their service department.

There are wireless connector pads on the sides of the baseplate that allow this set to be connect and draw power from other Neon City sets, such as the Neon Apartments and the Izakaya.

The Elevator

The next part of the construction revolves around the elevator shaft.  The shaft is made up of technic bricks and the elevator actually goes up and down by turning a crank.  While it's a nice play feature, the elevator doesn't actually connect to any of the floors hosting the modules.  It would have been nice to have connecting platforms from the elevator shaft to the pods.

The Robot Bar

The robot bar is fully stocked with lots of multicoloured bottles and we find the first of many printed parts that can be found in the Game Stack.  It's nicely lit from both above and below.  Because it's supposed to be a robot bar, I haven't checked to see if I can actually squeeze a minifigure behind the counter.

Maybe I'll try to fit a minifigure back here behind the bar.

The "Frame"

Here we are constructing the various elements of the frame such as the girders and platforms.  The elevator shaft gets finished off with windows.  I have my battery pack connected at all times to make sure that all the lighting is working properly during the construction process.

Here's another sampling of the printed parts that we can find in the Game Stack.  I especially like the ones that are printed are transparent parts.

In case you're wondering how all of the pods or modules get their power, there are wireless connectors mounted on each of the platforms.  There is a corresponding wireless connector on the back or front of each module and when they touch, the power from the structure will illuminate the lighting inside the module.   During my testing, some of the connections were better than the others.

The Modules

I call this the blue module.  Looks like there might be robot arms moving around so it might be off limits  for minifigures to go inside.  It splits open so you can access the interior, but you have to remove it from the platform before you can access it.  All of the modules are supposed to be interchangeable, meaning that you can freely place them on each of the different platforms.

Next up is the green module.  It's oriented at a 45 degree angle to the rest of the structure.  It houses some kind of neurotransmitter chair and the inside can be accessed from a rear panel.

The green module light connection wasn't that solid for me.  Also I found that the 45 degree angle made the module wobble, so I later ended up just fixing it to face in the same direction as the blue module.

Ok, so I'll call this one the pink module.  It's a coin dispenser game you can take out and play.  You twist the dial at the back and coins are supposed to drop out of a slot.  Bonus if you get a printed tile!

Finally we come to the last module, it's yellow and a double decker.  The lower part houses a boxing game which you can operate from the rear and make the red and blue boxers move back and forth.  The top half houses three arcade machines which can be displayed with minifigures if you like.

The Accessories

Besides all of the printed pieces, there's a nice assortment of accessories to the set:

A large printed but unit banner.

A golden game controller (with optional coloured joysticks included).

A drone.

A bus stop.

And finally, a sad little one eyed, one armed robot who can move around on a track.

Pros and Cons of the Game Stack

Lumibricks' hallmark—integrated lighting—reaches new heights in the Game Stack, with 23 LEDs crafting a dynamic glow and some of which activate on module insertion. Highlights include flashing acrylic panels, multi colour shifting lights on the roof, glowing neon tubes and rotating lights on the dance floor.  Compared to my other Lumibricks Cyberpunk sets, I found this one to be the most colourful.  The overall set presentation is killer and looks super amazing regardless of which side you are viewing it from.

The Game Stack structure is an engineering marvel and I found it to be quite sturdy.  Bricks as always were top quality.  Playability wise, you get interchangeable modules, a working elevator, working games to play with and a ton of accessories.

Regarding lighting, some of the wireless connections weren't that solid and to get the maximum lighting effect, you have to use fresh batteries.  When I used some older batteries, the light on the dance stopped rotating and dimmed out.  I thought it was a problem with the elements until I switched to new fresh batteries, then all was fine.

 

The light panel at the top of the building kept falling over during my construction, so I ended up adding an extra support beam on the other side to keep it in place.

Summary

The Set: Lumibricks Game Stack L9095

Theme: Cytberpunk Neon City

Piece count:  2580 pieces

Minifigs: Four

Stickers: No

Printed parts: Lots

LED lighting elements: 23

Age Rating: 16+

Regular Retail Price: $129 USD

Would I still recommend the Lumibricks Game Stack set?   Absolutely!  I'm a big Cyberpunk nerd so this set is right up my alley.  I like modular builds too.  I feel like this set would display nicely with some of the larger Lego Ninjago sets because they have the same colour schemes.  And if you like gaming, this set is for you too.

As with my other Lumibricks sets, I will probably make some changes to it in future, specifically inside the modules, and who knows, I might even stack it higher!
