Light Up the LEGO® Medieval Town Square with Light My Bricks™ Fantasy Starter Pack
Let's show you how easy it is to light up the LEGO® Medieval Town Square set using our Fantasy Starter Pack.
A Step-by-Step Guide: Lighting Your LEGO® Set
Step 1: Adding Flickering Torches at the Main Entrance
Separate the three sections to access the middle main gate section.
Remove the top level (roof) of the middle section.
Remove the torches from the front of the build.
Take out the torch flames to expose the open stud.
Replace the open stud with a Astro Regular Flicker Effect Warm White (see below).
Add a second open stud piece over the flicker effect light to remount the flame removed earlier.
Thread the cable through the axle hole behind the wall.
The cable is so thin, the bar piece can be easily secured in place.
Step 2: Mount Your Dock Ready for PlugIn
Use a tether to secure a Dock 6 on the inside ceiling.
Clip on the dock.
Plug in both of your flicker effect lights.
Step 3: Illuminating the Upper Floor
Clip a Warm White Micro Meteor Light to the underside of the top floor.
Connect to the dock downstairs.
Run a belt from the dock downstairs to the strip light upstairs.
Step 4: Add Candlelight in Lower Rooms
We brightened up other rooms using additional Warm White Astro lights.
Use a Warm White Astro Regular Light behind the candle flame pieces (where LEDs won’t fit inside).
Fold the cable neatly to keep it hidden. Push the flame piece back in place.
Step 5: Power It All Up
Connect a belt to the second port on the Micro Meteor Light (in the ceiling). This works because there's a belt at each end of the Micro Meteor Light which carries the power through the circuit.
Attach the Flux Converter and plug it into a 5V USB power source.
Let your build shine; you have the power to be as creative as you want to be!
Note: Power adapters aren’t included in the starter pack but are available in the Power section on the Light My Bricks™ website.

Creating your LEGO® masterpiece is easy when you choose the best lighting for LEGO® sets from Light My Bricks™. Follow these simple steps to produce a professional and clean lighting build:
