TheLegoJoker Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Just wanted to say "hi" to everyone. I'm a longtime fan of LEGO and, though I'd never registered until now, have been a lurker here for several years. Until about two years ago I had a pretty enormous collection. I bought just about every set released from every theme at the height of my collecting. Other collectibles began demanding my money, and I fell out of love with my LEGO. I liquidated my collection (completely) and focused on other things. However, the newer, shinier, and more costly collectibles didn't give me the same enjoyment I got from my LEGO figures, so I recently jumped back in and am starting a new, more focused collection from scratch. I am a fleshie lover so I mainly stick to the licensed lines, with the Super Heroes being my favorite. I'm really only interested in the traditional yellow characters if I can convert them to fleshies. (gonna win me a lot of fans with that comment ) Aside from LEGO, the only other figures I collect now are Minimates, which I imagine many of you are familiar with. I don't generally have a lot to say about things, so I won't be setting any post count records or anything. Just figured I'd join in the event I'd like to share my opinion on a topic. If you actually read this far, thanks. Quote

Palathadric Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 You literally [u]liquidated[/u] all of your Lego?!? That's manslaughter! Poor minifigs to get all melted down like that. I hope this is a kind of public confession. By the way, welcome! Quote
MetroiD Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Welcome! Always a good thing to hear more people are back to the hobby, and besides, my personal experience leads me to think that knowing what you want is always the best solution to building up a collection quickly. So good luck with that and enjoy the process! By the way, we don't really have fleshie minifig emoticons, which is probably a bit of an issue - but at least we've got an Emoticon depicting our Dragonator... Quote
Palathadric Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Just because you don't like the yellow minifigs is never an excuse to send them to the turture room for a burning. Be warned! Such abuse will not go unnoticed. PS: Sorry about all that it was just that word: liquidated...in reference to Lego. Quote
