Hive Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Having registered here about 2 weeks ago, I just now realised that it is apparantly customary to introduce oneself... so here goes: Hi all! I'm a 28-year old Danish guy who a couple of weeks ago, just before my 28th birthday, out of the blue got a craving to build LEGO again... probably because my mind refuses to accept getting older. I'm mainly interested in Castle, being very impressed by the recent sets with skeletons and orcs and dragons and what not - but Pirates is a classic as well, even though the last line seems to be somewhat of a light version of the sets from my childhood. Right when I got my craving for LEGO back, I tried to satisfy my thirst with LEGO Digital Designer - but the lack of interesting Castle pieces made it extremely insufficient, and I am now contemplating whether I should invest in some actual LEGO or just try to suffocate the urge...

Captain Green Hair Posted April 5, 2010 Posted April 5, 2010 Welcome to Eurobricks! Castle and pirates are 2 good themes to work with, I'd say get some actual Lego. Most of us have childhood ccollections, do you not have any left at your parents or something? Quote
Hive Posted April 5, 2010 Author Posted April 5, 2010 Welcome to Eurobricks! Castle and pirates are 2 good themes to work with, I'd say get some actual Lego. Most of us have childhood ccollections, do you not have any left at your parents or something? Yeah I do have some Lego at my parents', and actually examined it today (for the first time in quite a lot of years). The thing just is that it's a mixed bag of different themes and with no really big pieces (the biggest being Lagoon Lock Up, which is neat but not all that impressive). And the themes I have most of are Space and City, which doesn't really interest me anymore... I did however seem to have a decent enough collection of minifigures from both Castle and Pirates, which is nice. Though I'm not quite sure I'd want to do both, I'm considering opting for Castle only... In fact, I made my first Lego purchase mere minutes away, winning an auction with 6018 Battle Dragon, 6257 Castaway's Raft and 6260 Shipwreck Island - all brand new in sealed boxes. Not a bad start, eh? ...but of course, I already have 6257 and mainly bought the whole thing in order to get 6018. Quote
