Introduce Yourself & New Member FAQs

New member here, just wanted to see how everyone is doing?

Hi! I just wanted to do a quick introduction. My name is Lori and I'm a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom to five kids. Our whole family loves LEGOs. I'm glad to have found this place to talk with other LEGO-lovers. I recently started a blog and posting build videos as a project that our whole family can work on. It's been a learning experience, but I love it.

Hey all! It's pleasure to join your community. I hope this will be nice time together!

Hi, I am new to brickpicker so thought I would say Hi

Hello all, some may remember me and many probably will not. But after a long time away I have finally found my way back to the fold. Life happens sometime and work occupies us....that and the sheer upheaval when work tells you to move halfway across the nation . But I am glad to report I am back and life is now somewhat back to normal. Currently working at restarting my eBay store and starting the massive task of trying to catch up on the wide world of LEGO that left me in the dust quick. Anyway, just wanted to jot out a quick note re-introducing myself to the community and saying hi. - Vince

Hi guys! Great to join your community! I really enjoy your site. I am a collectionner investor, mostly collectionner,

Hello! I'm new to Brickpicker and Lego investing! I'm a Southern California College student and would love to start off small. I'm thinking of buying a couple Modular Pet Shops to stash away. I would love advice on how to get started on investing! I've gotten scammed trying to sell on EBay and being a seller on online transactions is a bit intimidating to me. I would love to sell over Craigslist or anything in-person or selling at conventions or something! Have a great weekend! Wyatt

Hello there! I have been the fan of Lego from early childhood, when I built huge towers with 2x4 bricks. Three weeks ago I made my first purchase of Lego for investment purposes after talk with a shop assistant. This idea was initially brought to me by a friend around 3 years ago and kindly fostered after that, but the action took place only now. First purchase consisted of the palace cinema (worn out box, but "the set is rare and will dissapear soon") and the tumbler ("great potential, since it is batman"). The next day I found brickpicker - the tumbler was returned, PC was not increased in volume. I started reading the forum more and more and resulted in buying several …

Hi everyone. Let me introduce myself. My name is Dewitte and I'm from The Netherlands. A week ago I bought a sliding lid wooden box with a Lego logo on the lid, filled with all kind of Lego stuff. That was the start of a journey (back) into Lego Land. I'm a fairly good internet researcher and soon after the start of my journey I found Brickpicker, Bricklink, Brickset and a whole plethora of other Lego related internet sites. Lego Land was starting to become Lego-Universe, but as vast as it might seem it is a Universe where one is not alone. I never realised that there are so many Lego-Lovers in this world. Lego evolved over the years, that became clear also. There are…

Hello, I'm not really new. Just new to the forums. I have used Brick Picker several times in the past. My favorite LEGO® theme would be MINDSTORMS. I enjoy pushing the limits with the MINDSTORMS. Now, I'm working on creating a giant army of LEGO® terminators.... should be taking over the world any day now. Keep your eyes on the news.... it can happen any day now.... * Mod Edit - a link to his latest project https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gj7qGkIdQ4E * Anyway, If you guys want, give me some suggestions for my next video here or better yet on my you tube channel. Two great ideas I have so far are: 1. Death Star with a Working Super Laser 2. Use my Go Pro to crea…

New to collecting/investing. I have a 4-year old son, and he has liked Lego pretty much since he was a baby. This summer, we started buying Star Wars sets and assembling them together. I'm quickly becoming addicted, and I thought investing might also be fun and a way to subsidize this expensive addiction. Right now, I'm focused mainly on Star Wars - there's just so much in that universe, and I'm interested in Star Wars anyway.

Hi there I'm Jeff new to this forum have been a collector of Lego sets since I was a boy. I have some un opened new in box mint condition sets for example #8872 #5581#4021 #4031 etc mainly from 1991-1993 I mainly would like info on them and meet with fellow collectors.

Hello everyone, I`am here for a while but only now i introduce myself! I love monster, movie and series themed lego, trains and star wars! I`am from portugal and iam looking forward to complete some of my dreams and goals with lego! Thanks

So... I never posted in here. As I ended up typing up the story of my bouncing in and out of my dark ages, might as well post here, many months late. Hello! I like Lego sets. I like buying Lego sets. And I REALLY like it when I buy Lego sets that then allow me to make money to buy MORE Lego sets! Reposting from whatever thread I posted this in:From probably age 16 through my military service and 2nd or 3rd year of university I had my first Dark Ages - more than a decade ... I got the 8448 Supercar then sold it a few years later. Many years later bought a Blacktron Battrax as it was one of my favourite sets as a child back in the day. Some years after that, bought and a…

Hi everybody! I've been here for sometime as a voyeur, and today I've decided to say hello! I'm from Barcelona and specially interested in Lego Trains. It was my dream when I was young, here in Barcelona no Lego trains arrived in my childhood... now I've got a large collection and hope to increase it soon... I've decided to write to Lego Spanish AFOL's in Spanish... you can follow me my website http://elcatalejo.es My first Lego... and my last Lego in my first Lego stage...

If I search my collection for an item, and it is not found, can you add a button to the results that says 'add this to my brickfolio' If I search, and don't find, then I have to go to the 'add' page, and re-enter the number. Adding a button to the (failed) results makes things easier.

Hi, got the link of your website from a friend, and it looks quite interesting. I was reading only for some time, but now decided to become a member! Regards Orthanc_Resident! The "T" was stolen for sure by the board administrator!

I was just going through my exported data, and I see a number of duplicate entries -- the "Create Date" is identical, down to the second. Is this common?

I have a variant of 6589 that came with a brown/sandstone shaped baseplate. Is it listed somewhere?

I'm a new member, born & raised in Colorado, trained in California and Texas, studying in Oklahoma. I've always loved Lego, but only just started getting into Lego investing early 2013. After I met another Lego invester, he turned me onto this site. And...here I am! I look forward to chatting with all of you.

Hello everybody! Recently I came out of the so called 'dark ages' to renew my love for LEGO. Having grown up in the 1970s and 1980s I played with the original LEGO Space sets and other comparatively simple LEGO from the 1970s. Now that I have children of my own I see them play with their own LEGO and it reminds me of the fun I had as a child while building LEGO scenes. Of course, LEGO has come a long way since then and there are now advanced models with expert building techniques. These advanced modular buildings and other expert sets have drawn my attention and recently I have started to buy some of these sets for myself. So far I bought: 10220 Volkswagen T1 …
