MikeF Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 Hi Everyone, I'm Mike, an adult fan of lego from the UK. My wife thinks that I am mad after recently getting back into LEGO. My collection is only small at the moment, consisting of the Ghostbuster Ecto 1 and X wing (9493) I have the Tumbler (76023) sitting in the Lego warehouse waiting to be sent out (hurry up lol) and the Millenium Falcon (7965) waiting for me for Xmas. My 2 lads have taken an interest too and are eagerly awaiting Xmas so they can build what they have asked for Looking forward to getting new ideas for future sets from everyone 2 Quote
Locutus001 Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 Hi Mike! Probably a good choice to get back into LEGO ;-) You've got a nice collection so far (and I bet it will grow faster than one would expect ^.^). Welcome to BP! Quote

I already have my eye on a few sets, Star Wars ones as I love the franchise. Would love the USC R2D2 but looks like I may have to pay above the RRP to get one now unless I get really lucky My boys are getting some Lego Movie sets amongst others so they should be good to build too Looking forward to building the Batman Tumbler when it arrives, getting inpatient waiting for Lego UK to ship it out, lol Quote

speedsausage Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Welcome mike. Being a Brit, I'm thinking owning the tower bridge is a must... and don't procrastinate. Just sayin'. :D Quote
Guest brickcrazyhouse Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 welcome to your new addiction if you're looking for building - mixels, tons of fun little price displaying- tower bridge or modulars, bigger is better investing- read as many threads, blogs and ask questions Quote

Make a few profitable investments, buy her a new bag or whatever she likes from the profit and suddenly she becomes an enabler. 1 Quote
Neosphinx Posted November 27, 2014 Posted November 27, 2014 Welcome, and listen to inversion. First profits go to the partner. It is almost an unwritten rule for Lego investment.
