Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Castles, Knights, Adventurers, Pirates, Western
My fascination with LEGO began... When I was 13 in 1988, a family friend of mine introduced me the fantastic Castle series of LEGO. The first castle two castle sets I bought were 6074 Black Falcon's Fortress and 6066 Forestman. I stopped buying castle in 1990 (when the priates set first appeared) as they're too expensive and I just couldn't afford it. I resumed collecting lego sets in 2002, over 10 years later!!! Thanks ebay and other internet sellers, I was able to collect many of the classic sets I missed during the decade.
I once built... A castle combining 6074 and 6080
Someday I will build... A giant castle combining most, if not every, model of castle, fortress.
And also a pyramid! And I hope I can build something great model applying the concepts in the Chinese Martial Art novels!!
LEGO is great because... I like it's design. It's so fantastic. I wish I can live in the fantastic world of lego.
LEGO fans are great because... it's wonderful to share with other LEGO fans worldwide the fun of playing LEGOs.

My favorite Foods: Sasami,Chinese BBQ ducks, Beer
My favorite Artists: Chow Yun Fat, Jackie Chan, Andy Lau, Mel Gibson

Words which best describe me: Childish
I love it when... I found an old LEGO set which I have missed out when it was released on the market
I hate it when... I saw those new LEGO products which deviate from the traditions of LEGO, e.g. Bionicles, Jack Stone series. And when I was forced to destruct the LEGOs due to insufficient space in my home. I also hate the over-simplistic design of the new sets released in recent years.
I can't seem to get enough... parts for building Castles, Knights,
I hope I always... enjoy playing LEGO
I wish I could... Unify all the Lego fans in Hong Kong by forming a Hong Kong Lego Fan Club.
I hope I never... lost the interest of playin LEGO
I wish I hadn't... stop collecting and playing LEGOs when in 1990
In my craziest moments... I spent over US$1,200 in several months in buying the old lego sets from the web, during which I was studying full-time and had no earnings at all......... :P
More & Less:
- more Lego fans in HK, less youngsters playing TV game in HK
- more fun, less work
- more holidays, less working days
Rules I try to live by:
- Happiness
- Enjoy
- Care
