Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Town/city, train, space, western, aquazone, pirates, technic, and Star Wars

My fascination with LEGO began... with A Duplo Train (set 2701)

I once built... a futuristic space cruiser when I was 8 years old (I prefer to learn from the pros nowadays)

Someday I will build... a Lego metropolis

LEGO is great because... it pushes your creativity and can be as challenging as you want

LEGO fans are great because... they are passionate abou Lego (even if it's only a toy)


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Transformers

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: watching film and playing tennis

My favorite Foods: Pizza, pasta, chicken, chinese, burgers, and chocolate

My favorite Movies & TV: Movie - 2001:A Space Odyssey TV - The Simpsons

My favorite Artists: Stanley Kubrick (film is a legitimate art form)

My favorite Music: Vangelis, John William scores, and classic music (eg. Beethoven)

My favorite Pets & Animals: Cats


Words which best describe me: Quiet, philisophical, and passionate


I love it when... I get stuff for free

I hate it when... people try to rip me off

I can't seem to get enough... Lego parts

I always seem to have enough... scrap paper in my room

I hope I always... have the ability to build with Lego

I wish I could... travel through time (and buy older Lego sets)

I could never... sell my Lego

I hope I never... get sick of Lego

I wish I hadn't... ignored Lego Star Wars when it first came out


In my craziest moments... I sing

Believe it or not... George isn't at home, please leave a message after the beep

If I were super-human... I would win the Nobel Prize for physics


More & Less:
  • more simple but effective Lego sets, less junorisation
  • more thought-provoking movies, less "safe" Hollywood movies
  • more decent television, less reality television

Rules I try to live by:
  1. There are no guarantees in life
  2. Don't let others change who you are
  3. Don't make assumptions


Additional comments:

I really only started to seriously collect Lego in September of this year when my parents bought me a box of old (used) Lego. From the box I constructed a few classic space sets including the utterly fantastic Galaxy Explorer. I am now hooked on classic space sets & basically anything released during the 80s. However I am now intereseted in designing my own sets (using Ldraw), but I will always be on the lookout for older sets (or parts)
