@Fuppylodders - I also went from lego to Warhammer, although I was never really a fan of lego, I got it as present by people who didn't really know what kind of toys I liked, which was before warhammer, mostly action figures and then I played computer games and read books. Anyway warhammer basically consumed all my money between the ages of 12 and 16.
@Robianco - Then after 16, it was basically went to only buy records for a couple of years, until 2005 then I started university which meant that extra money went to partying and it took until last year in october when I bought my first lego, and it was the Ewok Village! The only one I've not bought second hand so far (I'm still a student... taking it slow =) ) As I said, I was never really a lego fan, but Star Wars, megabluck yeah! And especially ewoks for some crazy reasons I don't know, and if I knew I wouldn't tell you =).
So a few month before my daugther was born, during last spring I was sitting on internet feeling abit like I think a few soon to come fathers are feeling when they sense that their life's gonna chance like not so many spontanous going out in the night, less long friends only vaccations and definitely no field work in Somalia for 6 months away from the family, that kind of feeling and I saw the Ewok Village just be some coincidence on internet, I thought I found at least some comfort to my missery!
Now I went from basically nothing one year ago too over 200 minifigs and filling 2m2 of lego sets! And the worst thing is not even the economical spending, but it's a crazy time consumptionn, hell, do you know how many FB groups and internet forums I'm active on, I need some megablocking help! hahaha
