My name is Colin23, clock is ticking on LEGO Ideas projects

[Colin23]

Hi, I'm new to Eurobricks! This site was recommended to me by an employee at a LEGO store - what better recommendation can you get than that?

I visit Brickset pretty much every day, but am going to start using Eurobricks too.

I'm an AFOL from Minnesota, USA, and have been enjoying building with LEGO bricks since I was a small child. I'm huge into Classic Space, but frankly it's hard for me to think of a type of LEGO that I don't like (other than maybe Jack Stone). My son is 10 years old and he loves playing with LEGO bricks too, so this is a hobby that we can enjoy together.

The main thing I'm working on right now is my LEGO Ideas project inspired by my favorite book, "The Little Prince": https://ideas.lego.com/projects/50323. Only 75 days left to get another 4,281 votes.... Yeah, I'm stressing!

Any ideas on how to promote the project?

And, of course, if you like the concept, please vote for it! :-)

Hopefully I did alright on my first post!

Take care,

Colin23

p.s., I should mention that I've partnered with glenbricker on the project.

p.p.s., I should also mention that on my Flickr page the awesome custom minifigs come from Minifigs.Me.

Hi Colin, The link to your project is not working.

[Cloveapple]

Your link got connected to the next sentence somehow, but I think it's the project at: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/50323

Good luck. I am sure there are many people who would enjoy your set.

Thank you for the warm welcome! I just got on, and then got tied up with work and my son's after school basketball and soccer - yeah, soccer, in Minnesota, in February.... Thanks for the correction on this link - yes, it's https://ideas.lego.com/projects/50323.

Is anyone else into the LEGO sports - the basketball and soccer sets that had about a decade ago? My son and I both love those figures, and the cool pieces. We were working on a multi-use stadium (basketball, soccer, baseball, tennis, boxing, etc.), but it's not done yet. Hopefully I can post something in a month or so.

Thanks!

That's weird, I just made a post but it doesn't show up! Hopefully this one does....

Hi Colin,

Welcome to EB!

I need to point out that it's not allowed to use EB for the sole purpose of promoting your LEGO Ideas projects. When you post a topic, it's allowed to include a link, but creating a topic just to promote your project is frowned upon (and actually not allowed).

Good luck with your project.
