Alpha Draconis Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 Salutations! I've rekindled my interest in LEGO over the past year and a half (been a fan since childhood) and decided that this is going to be my hobby for life. What better way of connecting with same-minded people than joining this forum! My favourite themes are star wars, pirates, Bionicle, WW2 (if that counts as a theme), Ideas and UFO - one of the themes I never had as a child but I had many old 90s catalogues from my older cousins and thought that the theme was the coolest thing ever (and I still do). My profile picture is a testimony to that I enjoy the mocs that people make but creating them myself just isn't my coup of tea. I also quite enjoy any LEGO rumours and speculations on any new star wars, Ideas or 18+ sets the variety and experimental value of which I love but I agree with some people that label "18+" should be taken with a grain of salt. I'm also interested in doing reviews of older sets so I might use this forum to do just so. We'll see how much free time I have in the future. One personal wish I have is for LEGO to introduce legacy line sets on their classic themes and sub-themes up to around the turn of millennium (not the first one to come up with this idea, I know), similar to Ideas line (limited release + some kind of voting system for people's voice to be heard), I am hoping that this is something TLG is considering already, but I am not holding my breath. We'll see how 90th anniversary set pans out Otherwise I come from Slovenia ("a small country on the sunny side of the Alps"), which doesn't really mean much but I am always happy to come across people from my own or neighbouring countries That's it about me, hopefully I didn't ramble too much. Feel free to always DM me on any UFO related topics (not really interested in buying off this forum but I am always open to chat or discussion) -Alpha Draconis Quote

If you weren't aware of it at the time, TLG did re-release old sets with their Legends line (you can see them here: https://brickset.com/sets/tag-Legends ) starting back in 2001, but it was pretty limited. I would be fantastic if they did something similar but, as you suggest, added in a voting or pre-order element like what they're doing with the Bricklink Designer Program and Ideas. We can keep wishing! Happy building! Quote
