Lego Cake With Oreo Studs Covered In Fondant Help Please!

Hi cake experts,
I'm planning my daughter's birthday cake as a Lego block with Oreos for the studs. I've never used fondant before but after the buttercream crumb coat, in what order should I proceed? Would you recommend that I drape the fondant over the smooth cake surface, then add the fondant covered Oreos on top? Or could I stick the Oreos on the buttercream and coat everything in fondant in one go? Thanks for your advice!
I made a LEGO block cake and I cover the Oreos with the same color of candy melts. Surprisingly the colors were a perfect match. If you want I will see if I can find the picture.
If you try to cover everything at once make sure to frost the oreos to make them one with the cake. Just sticking uncovered oreos on top of a buttercreamed cake and then trying to cover it all in fondant sounds like a disaster in the making. So buttercream everything, put in the fridge to chill and then cover in fondant.
I think they will be more well defined if you do it separate but I don't know exactly what you are planning either
