Hello, I am 23, from Iowa and was a big fan of LEGO when I was younger. Also, a huge fan of Star Wars, so that worked out well. I recently got back into LEGO with the release of the SSD, and subsequent discovery of all the UCS Star Wars sets and their crazy appreciation. My best friend has the Tie Interceptor that his parents bought him when we were 11. I wanted to purchase the Super Star Destroyer, but couldn't bring myself to spend the $400, so I settled for the Imperial Shuttle, which I am building for the second time now. Last fall I purchased the B-Wing when they were giving away the TC-14 with it, but I have thus far left it in the box. Definitely enjoy building and collecting and would like to invest, just haven't moved past the UCS sets.

Welcome! I think you'll find a bunch of good info on this site about investing, and it may take your interests well byond the UCS sets!

Welcome to the site, think you can probably guess where I live. What parts of Iowa are you from?

I live in Des Moines, which is decent sized, but I don't think there is a Lego store in the state
