9/15 - I'm happy with that. Some real tough questions. Nice bit of fun. Thanks guys!
I can't see my results. It never displays them in Edge.
I missed four out of twelve, which I supposed isn't too bad.
Jungle jazz made laugh out loud.
11/15– my best trivia score in 3+ years
10/15. I was surprised by how many 18+ and licensed Technic sets there were. And {redacted} tops out most owned set.
10/15. The credits goes to Brickset who has keep me informed over the year.
I got 11/15. I don’t know or track color names so that one was a guess for me even though I own the set. I also don’t care about meta references within sets or remember a lot of older themes, so guessed that one as well.
9/15. Not too bad I guess!
12/15
12/15. I think this is the best I’ve done at one of these trivias.
If only I had not underestimated how ADULT Lego became in 2021 and if only I had not underestimated what a flop Vidyo was.
11/15, can't complain there - especially since two of the questions I bodged were for themes (technic and speed champions) I don't really pay attention to!

I use Edge and saw my results. Try the 'Top' button. That's what I did to scroll up to my results. Which were an abysmal 6/15. But still lots of fun!
11/15. I think I need I know too much about Lego.
9/15 For someone who doesn't know a thing about some themes, that's not bad. I'm still questioning why xxx was not in the Looney Tunes CMF. They are in my Looney Tunes CMF 2 draft, but I feel like he should have been in this CMF. Then again, I would have made some changes to the original CMF if I were incharge of making the decisions
10/15 thanks to my hanging around Brickset (and a bit of luck).
9/15 - with a lot of luck! ... and fun!
13/15! Or, 13/15… I could be either proud or ashamed for knowing this much hahaha. The ones I got wrong were the date vidiyo was canned (or something like it) and the amount of 18+ sets (I was absolutely blown away by the correct answer, I guessed 23!). Not too bad, only missed the very specific questions and not even all of them.
One of these days I'll get more than 11/15.
10/15, nice.
So i don’t know anything about technic sets and cars :-)
12/15, not bad.
5… obviously not been paying enough attention this year
7/15 ..yes ... I'm special
;)
9/15 — I had two guesses for the last one, though, same with another question near the end. Can’t spoil them, though.
10/15 for me
7/15. I need to pay more attention.
I got 8/15, not so great for a LEGO employee...
10/15. Pretty happy with that score.
I scored 11/15. I haven't done that well in a long time. This reminded me a reason why The Mandalorian (in beskar armor) minifig scored so high in the favorite minifig poll, and why it's popular (which I have including everyone else). This poll also proves the fact that TLG is really pushing and marketing sets to adults.
10/15. Thanks Brickset for doing that!
7/15 - far and away my best ever performance on one of these. The 7 I got right I knew. Law of averages says I should have fluked 2 more. Oh well
Oof, 6/15, Didn't do as well as expected!
8/15, so basically half. Better than I normally do at most of these quizzes!
Same here 6/15...
6/15. Mostly made educated guesses lol, though there were a number of them that I subconsciously knew I got wrong. Gotta stop second-guessing myself. X-D
"Amount of 18+ sets" totally caught me off guard though. HOLY...
Please refrain from posting answers in the comments!

Noted my redacted comment. Completely slipped my mind that I was posting answers. Thanks for sorting me out!

Hmm, my comment purposely avoids the answer to one of the questions, but I realized that the wording might give it away. Should I change it?
10/15. Nice quiz!
11/15 not too shabby. Especially considering I didn't really pay attention to the speed champions or technic stuff this year (2 of the questions I missed).
2/15.... Any lower?
I'll reward myself with the 21325 Medieval Blacksmith
A couple educated guesses and some knowledge gained by reading Brickset daily. I'm something of an AFOL myself ;D

Ooh, I’m special too!
7/15 here
5/15?! YIKES! I thought I had gotten 10/15. Oops. Looks like all the ones I had to guess on were wrong.
11/15. Not too bad.
10/15, seems like a pretty good score
7/15.
Mostly due to luck, I had absolutely no knowledge about most of the questions. A few were qualified guesses.
10 out of 15, happy with that!
I took the quiz again and did MUCH better the second try—just like landing a plane.

Nice! What would you have bought yourself for 15/15, a polybag?
6/15, every one an, ahem, educated, guess ...
13/15 There must be more in life...
Surprised by how many people own Sailboat Adventure. I had to get it off Bricklink, although I got it for a reasonable price
11/15
Got wrong the 3 statistical ones with licensed number of Technic sets, number of 18+ sets and most owned set.
Also wrong on the Ninjago City Gardens even though I own and built it.
7/15, could've done worse. My exuse is that, apart from the occasional deviation, I buy pretty much Bionicle and Star Wars
Total guess more for these as very few referenced theme I own so quite happy with the 7 I got right.
8/15 for pass marks though I did miss out on knowing what Lego calls the Fiat recolour.
9/15: A fair representation of my knowledge
15/15 - I decided to take my trivia to the tiger level this year!
11/15 definitely my best score.
13/15
10/15 with some memory and some guesswork. A few surprises...
High-five Icey from Denmark, 2/15 here also!! I guessed on all of them, except I did know that the new Fiat set was light blue, just not what the color was called....of course I picked the wrong name :(
Are you casual Lego fans without high scores really that rare or are you guys just timid about sharing abysmal scores :D
9/15. I can usually answer if it's a theme I follow or if it's wide general knowledge but I always lose points on everything else. These are always fun!
9 out of 15 with no cheating whatsoever - not bad :-)
5/15....shame on me!
I'm happy with my 9 out of 15. Thanks for the fun quiz!
Welp, 9/15 for me. As a lover of both Lego and trivia, I'd like to have done better, but nothing to be ashamed of.
The golden minifigs one was sort of a gimme, don't you think? I won't say why to avoid spoilers,but it was pretty easy.
I actually have three of the sets in the "most owned" question, I don't have 21325. I'll have to get that one, along with EVERY OTHER SET MENTIONED IN THE QUIZ! I'm kidding. I wish I had that much space and money.
The first 3 seemed so easy but then…7/15
13/15! Not what I was expecting
8/15
6/15 Guess I’m not reading enough on Brickset. Honestly though some of those themes I could care less about so less likely to read or retain info I think.
I got a 12 out of 15, my best score yet on a Brickset quiz! I don't think my wife would be very impressed though...
I got 10/15, I'm embarrassed to say one of the answers I got wrong was the technic one; I forgot about the ford raptor and the monster jam vehicles
Good quiz questions! I got 10/15.
Are you sure about the number of 18+ sets? Where can I find a list? 18+ is not a theme or category on brickset and if I check lego.com, I also get some Lego Classic sets when I select 18+.
I read lego news everyday, brickset is my first website i visit in the morning. And I got 8/15. And I am happy about it, because it means I don't trash my memory with too much useless info! If I ever have the need to know what is the name of the colour used by fiat500 I have internet at my disposal ;) But still, this was fun.

My average result on these quizzes, it seems, is not going to change anytime soon; 9/15, as per normal!
Most of those I got, though, I knew this time; only a couple were guesses. The ones I missed were mostly for number-based ones (I can work well with numbers, but I don't store them in my memory), or for things I don't pay attention to, like the car manufacturers.
I did trip up on the animals Brickheadz, though. I got the answer confused with a similar animal that *had* been released, so I thought that all of them existed... and picked the earliest one I remembered, on the assumption that it must have been from the previous year instead. Turns out, though, that [spoiler] are not [spoiler].
Also didn't realise that Vidiyo was on an extended hiatus until 2023; I thought it had just been cancelled outright, so I had to completely guess when that was announced. And I aaaaaaalmost picked the right answer for the final question, but then second-guessed myself at the last second on the grounds of a certain other theme's popularity on Brickset, which resulted in me missing the answer. So I was... *close* to doing better than I normally do, but not quite there yet!
10/15 - not bad considering the range of themes represented. Actually, doing that well tells me that I'm spending WAY to much time on Brickset...! ;)

Ah, thanks. I needed this tag "18+". The list includes GWP and BDP sets, thats why I was a little confused.
10/15 Not too bad.
15/15 but only because I had to use my brickset foo to research the number of 18+ sets, Vidiyo hiatus, and double-check my guess at total pieces for World Map. Having a permanent browser tab always opened logged into Brickset along with reading every article and most all comments has apparently paid off :)
Ah, only 7/15. And I thought I spent too much time on Brickset last year!
5/15. I only knew 3 with any certainty. Wow, the color of the Fiat question--I don't even know the differences between those colors, let alone the actual color of the car!
I got 12/15!
13. Vidiyo & Technic tripped me. Never owned any so can I have perfect score now? ;)
7/15…. Questions were HARD!
I read basically EVERY article on Brickset, every week!
I did notice an error with one of the commentary around the answers though - Millenium Falcon’s piece count was incorrect!
Also, I wouldn’t say Bionicle had their anniversary - the theme was canned many years ago!
If someone is divorced, do we congratulate them on their wedding anniversary?!
;)
10/15! Nice set of questions.
Got 10/15. Happily surprised by that - usually I do extremely poorly on these.
(this one was a bit easier than usual because the questions pertained to 'fairly' recent activities. Often times there are quizzes with questions about sets made 20 years ago - hence my doing poorly! I was there 20 years ago but I don't recall old sets with good accuracy.)
Thanks @CapnRex101 for this! was fun.
