ObadiahPoundage Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 I'm a 47 year old who has recently rediscovered my Lego inner child. Bought a few Winter Village sets (Santa's Workshop, Post Office) and before knew it, I'd bought the rest. I think I may have caught the brick bug. I'm typing this looking at the unopened VW box in the corner nestling next to the Ideas bird set. Which on first? Or, should I wait for the Detective's Office to arrive? I'm rather thrilled to have picked up a couple of Research Institute sets on Lego UK tonight. Thought my chance had gone... Anyway, the name is Ken. I'm pleased to make your acquaintance... Quote
Slegengr Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Welcome to Eurobricks, Ken! It sounds like the LEGO bug has indeed bitten you and you have hours of building just waiting for you! Do you only collect sets or do you diverge from the instructions and build your own creations? Quote
TheLegGodt Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Welcome Ken. My re-spirited hobby also started with a winter village (toy shop) set bought on a whim at Legoland in Germany. Was a chance visit for the kids. Did not expect to 'fall in love' again so to speak. Good luck with you new AFOL ways and I hope you have enough money in the bank for all the lovely models out there!

ObadiahPoundage Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Hi Slegengr. At the moment it's sets but I'm sure at some point I'll have the confidence to create and build my own ideas. Give it time... Quote
Lady K Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Welcome Ken. Sounds like you have a lot to choose from to build.....enjoy! Quote

The brick bug is nothing to worry about unless you run out of money... Don't wait for the Detective's Office (though it is great) - just go for the next set! Quote
