For thicker work like encapsulating lego you definitely want GlassCast 50.
I did a lego table with the original GlassCast 3 in many layers (before we had GlassCast 50 - which is what i would use now) and you find some parts are very hard to not get trapped air, even if you use a heat gun or blow torch. I even used cocktail sticks to try and burst some bubbles. Despite that it still looked great as these photos show:
