Greetings

I've been poking around these forums for a while, so I figured I'd say hello. I'm Dutch but have lived most of my life in the US. The new Kingdoms line with the Lion Knights and Green Dragons have convinced me to stop supressing my Lego love, ending a nearly 20-year dark age for me.

In terms of themes, I'm primarily a castle/town guy, but liked a lot of the older space sets as well as the first pirates wave. I haven't been too keen on space since, and am trying to stick to castle/town now, but trains has me intrigued, too. My older brother and I put together a pretty large collection of legos from the late-70's through early 90's, which my dad is finally ready to hand down to us know that we have our own kids. Sorting through it all will be an adventure, and I haven't seen one piece of it in 15 years. For now, I've just got the handful of newer sets I've purchased. I'm most looking forward to finding the old castle stuff again.

I may join in on a Mafia game or two. I followed Cirque du Freak fairly closely, and have played Mafia in person a number of times, but never via an online forum. I'm a huge baseball fan, so the baseball guy CMF was pretty fun for me.

Welcome and enjoy the boards!

Hey, how's it goin'? I'm AFOL too. I got back into LEGOs again because of my kids. I remember how much fun I had building when I was a kid, and wanted my girls to fondly remember their LEGOs too. I was mostly into the castle and pirate themes way back then, and took a couple decades off from toys. It seems I haven't changed my tastes much since then as I have collected nothing but pirate and castle themed sets recently. I bought seven pirate ships and I love to moc them, also. I'm not as good as you guys at mocing (is that even a word? ) anymore as I'm rather busy. Maybe someday I'll develop the skills to show off a little, until then I'll just watch you guys and get inspired. Thanks for making this forum, You all are wonerful. Later!
