Legoman of War

I would agree that it is a good thing. Lego has its base themes that are a standard i.e. city and injects it's licensed themes until they run their course. It keeps them relevant with current goings on and continues to bring in new customers as well as satiating it's diehard fans. Diversity is the key to staying in the forefront of business. The only problem I see and it really isn't a problem is for fans having to decide what sets they will buy. Evolve or die. LMW

My story is probably similar to a lot of adults as I built Lego as a child (I'm 47 now) and discarded my desire as I became a teen and my interests went other places. I picked it back up again about 7 years ago when my son received his first set (Hailfire droid) that he was to young for. I built it for him and put it back together numerous times as he vigorously played with it. He developed a passion for it a few years later and we started buying new sets and huge lots of bricks off EBay. We now have a giant collection of bricks that I spend most of my time organizing and he builds. I tend to over do things so when I say a ton of bricks, I mean a TON of bricks. He enjoys it and it makes me happy to see him have fun with it. One day I will build more but now it's just him. LMW

I ordered my Christmas present....The Millennium Falcon...sweet and 300 points

I just ordered the latest iteration of the MF Saturday when it was double points. It is my Christmas present from my wife!

I am as well looking forward to seeing the progress. I bricklinked Jabba's Sail Barge. (I say that as it's the first one I did) and it was a great challenge. I never documented it like this and enjoy seeing the guys that do. LMW

That is awesomely creative! It puts a cool twist on both themes. Definitely outside the proverbeal box thinking

Do they have a position for "guy who sits around and builds lego all day?" I would love a job like that. LMW

It's an app that allows you to view certain message boards. They have to register on TT before you can access them LMW

We need one in the Florida panhandle!! LMW

I have more time on the computer than I do building and that helps me get my fix for lego. I would love to build more but school and work have been taking the majority of my time over the last several years. To the question at hand. I got back into lego because my boys have become interested in it. My six year old is totally engrosed in it. My interest will probably wane if he decides to abandon it but we'll see when the time comes. To be honest I have never had time to devote to building my own creations. Maybe once I do then I will do it more. LMW

I have no experience with it but my 6 year old does those kinds of things and uses the Lego movie maker on an ipad. He gets alot of enjoyment out of it and his movies are getting pretty good. LMW

I use it for 5 or six other sites. I like it. LMW

I concur. Pictures are much better LMW

Nice, You inspired me to do that same set. The reason is that I get very little time to build anything and when I do it is sets with my sons. So a mini-rama is a great idea! Thanks, LMW
