Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Star Wars sets are great, I also love Technic...hoping to get some Mindstorms sets when I can afford them
My fascination with LEGO began... I got my first set when I was about 5 or 6, have always had a box of Legos with me since!
I once built... My building record isn't full of many great creations. Mostly space and/or castle ideas. I like to combine the two themes.
Someday I will build... A 3-6 foot long Star Destroyer. =) Or a giant motorized walking robot. (Not very large goals, considering others here have already done them!)
LEGO is great because... They're the ultimate toy! Only limit is your imagination (and your checking account size, of course. =P)
LEGO fans are great because... ...they make me feel like I'm about 10 again in skill. =) I'll catch up eventually I hope.
My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: GI Joe...still miss those!
My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Computers, reading, religion/philosophy
My favorite Foods: Italian, Chinese and Mexican
My favorite Movies & TV: Star Wars, Bicentennial Man
My favorite Music: 80's, rock, classical
My favorite Pets & Animals: Birds and large,friendly dogs are my favorites.
Words which best describe me: Thoughtful, somewhat lazy =)
I love it when... ...I get free Lego sets in the mail! (If only it would happen more often...my birthday's in a week everyone! =P)
I hate it when... I see newly released toys on eBay or in comic shops for twice what they're worth.
I can't seem to get enough... Um, let me think here...LEGO?
I always seem to have enough... Work to keep me too busy to think of anything to build.
I wish I could... get a job as a Master Builder.
I could never... sell my Lego collection. Maybe parts of it...
I hope I never... have to think of this many survey answers again!
I wish I hadn't... spent so much on Star Wars sets that I had to conserve food for two weeks until my next paycheck.
In my craziest moments... Are you calling me crazy? I'm not crazy! I'm just mental stability-challenged! =)
Believe it or not... Jack Palance was the host of that Ripley's show...and I'm almost 23.
If I were super-human... I would fight crime in exchange for better Space sets. Or maybe fight high retail prices.
More & Less:
- more HEALTHY Fast food restaurants, less Deep-fried batter dipped balls of lard
- more Kindness, understanding, education and responsibility, less Ignorance, placing blame, and prejudice
- more Computer/Video games that require thought, less C/Vgames that require running and shooting everything
Rules I try to live by:
- Don't judge others, even if their mistakes directly affect you.
- When making a tough decision, pray for guidance.
- Put your toys away when you're done...or display them!
Additional comments:
Well, I've had many ideas for constructing things in the past, but in the past few years I seem to have lost a lot of them. I've dumped out my Legos five times in the past few weeks, and only built one fairly crummy ship. Anyone who has construction ideas, please let me know. I don't have access to LDraw right now, and probably won't for a couple of years.
I have always liked building future-themed creations, occasionally combining Castle and Space. Lately I've been inspired to try building things like mecha and starships, but as I said, haven't been able to start once I sit down to. If anyone is near Modesto, California and cares to come by and brainstorm with me, you're welcome to!
