muffinbrick Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Hello, my name is Martin, but many of my friends calls me "muffin", according to my nickname on our local MTB forum. When I was child, I had some nice LEGO sets, first of them was 6970 Beta I Command Base, then some smaller sets, and when I was little bit older, it was 740 Basic Building Set. In that time I was dreaming about TECHNIC, but in 80's it was too rare and expensive in our country. Later I had some different hobbies and LEGO remained just as memories on my childhood. Everything changed, when we(me and my grlfriend) thought of present for our 3 years old nephew. LEGO was my first choice, and it was good one :) Now he's 6, has tens of sets(mostly CITY and SW) and is able to build almost anything following BI. So before last christmas we decided to buy him smaller TECHNIC set. When it was on our shelf, I couldnt help mysef and had to open the box. And that was no way back. When I saw all those technic parts, I started to browse LEGO pages and looked for some nice set for myself. And finaly I bought 42029 - not too expensive, but still enough challenging. Today, after less then a year later, I have 4 sets, and dont think its over. Now I have my first TECHNIC MOC WIP, and yesterday I bought my first organizer boxes to be more effective in building process. And ofcourse, I already have installed LDD and have account at bricklink. So now I just have to practicing building a buying missing parts(sets:)) for my future projects :) Quote
