Victor Imaginator Posted July 18, 2015 Hello, my name is Anton. I realized that i didn't introduce myself yet, but already started a topic and post some replies. Now it's time to introducing) I live in Moscow, Russia. Long time ago my mother buy me fake LEGO, soviet union version) I played it and enjoy, and then mother buy me another fake LEGO, some kind of old technic with bricks. And long time ago i wanted real LEGO so much, but never had. 20 or 25 years passed since then and i now i can buy real LEGO and play with it, finally) But i'm not enjoy playing with LEGO anymore. I just want to make old dream true. And spending money for something that i can keep and use somehow for a long time is relaxing too. May be it all looks like a sad story, but it's not) Now LEGO it's a tool for keep my brains working. I hope this will lead me somewhere. I registered here when TC7 was anounced, i felt some kind of inspiration about it.... Thanks for reading this and sorry for bad english) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JopieK Posted July 18, 2015 Interesting that the USSR also had their own fake LEGO! So you mainly are into Technic? My wife too, I enjoy technic, but being an engineer I love city / trains even better (keeping work and hobby a little bit apart ;)). Is it nowadays easier to get LEGO in Russia?

Victor Imaginator Posted July 18, 2015 Not only LEGO, USSR also had version of Meccano, i had it too. Yep, i like technic a lot, started with 42009 about half year ago. My wife involved too, but she making houses and castles. And yes - today is much more easier to obtain LEGO here in Moscow. Don't know about all Russia) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
