Hi everyone! I guess I am one of the small minority of girls who likes lego and loves building it!

I've loved playing with Lego since I was a little kid, but I only had four of those tub boxes so I was very limited to what I could build. I didn't have any big sets when I was younger, although I always wanted a castle, especially ones with trap doors etc, but I never managed to get one until I was 14/15 or so with the Oriental Castle (which I got for £15 in the Woolworths after Christmas sales).

I still have all my old vehicles I got when I was a kid. My favourites where always the lego system bug alien things. I can't remember their name but they where awesome!

After that, I didn't get much lego until I went away to uni and met my boyfriend who was interested in this stuff, which resparked my interest. I now own quite a lot of cool lego sets, including a fire station, police station, aqua base, two lego creator houses along with loads of robots, vehicles and the space police galactic enforcer. I was lucky a few years ago to get a load of sets cheap in a toy store that was closing down. All their stock was half price or more, meaning large sets where only £10-£20.

My most recent purchases are the series 1 minifigures, which have just hit the shelves in the local toy store here. With the barcode cheat, I've managed to get nearly all the figures I wanted, but I've still got two extras I didn't want (I love the Ninja and wanted a group of them anyway so he doesn't count). So far, I think my city, when built, is over run by minifigures. I know most people complain they don't have enough, but I have the opposite problem!

I also bought the latest fire helecopter for £15 last week in the Argos sale. It's so fun to build and mess around with, but the water pieces are going to get lost so easily if I'm not careful.

Hi Zanki and welcome to Eurobricks! Glad to hear more and more FFOL joining our online community. Your bf is one lucky dude as you share the same passion for lego. default_laugh2.gif And your problem with numerous minifigs is 'good' problem to have, how I wish I had more MFs. Well, I hope you enjoy the forums here. See you around!
