Like the title says, I'm kinda new here. I've been hanging out around this forum just looking around for about two weeks now, and decided to bite the proverbial bullet and join up.

So, who am i?

I am a 29 year old. recently rediscovered fan of Lego.

My parents made the wise decision to buy me Duplo at a young age, to continue on to lots of normal lego and some Lego Technic when I grew old enough.

Even at that age, I was crazy about the stuff.

When I got pocket money, I saved it all up for new Lego.

When it was my birthday, or any other kind of event, and I could choose what to get: Lego.

I collected quite a number of sets (or at least it felt like a lot of sets to me) and played with it for countless hours.

But then... As I'm sure most of you have experienced, the dark ages set in at around age 14. Luckily for me my parents just put the Lego away for the future and never even though of selling it.

Now, fast forward to 15 years later, I still look at Lego every now and again, check out what's on the shelves in the stores, and even occasionally bought an impulse kit, just for the fun of it.

Then, on my last birthday, my girlfriend had the brilliant idea of gifting me a big Lego set (10226 - Sopwith Camel) which had the effect of pulling me right out of my dark ages and into AFOL-hood.

Having build the Camel, I wanted more, so I started looking at what was available, and stumbled upon the new Galaxy Squad Range, Which I loved from the start and just knew I had to have in all it's entirety.

Having reignited my love for Lego I started to roam the internet, looking for anything Lego related, youtube videos, set reviews, and eventually this led met here, to Eurobricks.

after having read quite a few reviews here another old hobby of mine started to rear it's head once more, writing. I started to think I'd love to write some reviews for the Lego sets I build as a kid and loved to bits, and the new stuff which manages to capture my imagination.

I hope to have my first review up in not too long, and equally hope you would like reading it, and get to share some of the love I have for this fantastic product.
