61. Re: How did you find Brickset?

    

    Comment by paul_merton · July 2014 · Home› Forum Operation

    I believe I ended up on here after googling for #8294 Excavator a few years ago. I had never reaslised such a resource existed before, so I thought it was pretty cool. When I realised the database contained pretty much every set I had when I was little, I was sucked in even further. First I found #6080 King's Castle (I…

62. Re: [UK] STEAM / The Great Western LEGO Show - who's coming?

    

    Comment by MinifigsMe · September 2011 · Home› Community and Events

    @rich69 - I've sent you a message :) If anyone else wants anything from my store btw, please let me know, as it means no shipping or fees and I can offer a 5% discount. I've not updated it for a while, though I have a massive pile of figs to add (let me know if you're desperate for a specific fig as I may have it!) and…

63. Re: What would/could push you out of the hobby of collecting LEGO, and send you in to another Dark Age?

    

    Comment by Yodalicious · November 2015 · Home› Collecting

    I doubt if I'll ever have another dark ages because as a few others have said, I'll always have the interest. I may go through periods in the future where I'm not buying or building, but this is my one hobby that came back after not one, but two dark ages. That must mean something as every other hobby that I dropped for…

    Comment by LusiferSam · October 2017 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    ABS bricks wear out over time. I have some childhood sets from the late 80s that barely hold together. The key statement that people seem to be missing is that @Cyberdragon said that he played with this set a lot as a kid. The more you assemble and disassemble are particular group of bricks, the more there wear down. As a…

65. Re: Mold changes through the decades

    

    Comment by LusiferSam · January 2014 · Home› Building and Techniques

    There are upwards of 40 mold variations of the 2x4 brick alone. The Leggodt site has a lot of photos of the 2x4 brick variations. Variations can include no logo, block letters underneath, bar bell logo underneath, old logo on studs, logo on studs and underneath (rare), new logo on studs, Samsontie logo stud (open O), mixed…

66. Re: AFFOL?

    

    Comment by otter · May 2011 · Home› Community and Events

    I'm a female AFOL and like some have already mentioned, distinctions for female AFOL don't really bother me - the distinction itself seems rather silly. I'm the major collector in my family and my husband supports my hobby - which I'm very grateful for, and occasionally tries a few building projects of his own. My first…

67. Re: Is LEGO loosing its way from its core selling?

    

    Comment by TheLoneTensor · April 2013 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    I agree with most everything you've written except for this point to which this I still hold fast. When it comes down to it, the move to the blocky wall pieces was most assuredly a turning point in Lego history, if only because they shifted slightly away from their foundational concept of building things out of bricks. Now…

68. Re: What is your all-time favorite set?

    

    Comment by Yodalicious · February 2016 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    So many for very different reasons. I'll do my best to be brief... Absolute favorite for too many reasons to name - #6080 King's Castle - Not my first set, but darn close. I've decided to pull it back out of storage, dust it off, and rebuild it next month on my birthday. #6698 RV with Speedboat - I lost the instructions,…

    Comment by Mr_Cross · December 2020 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    
 I don't doubt that there is appetite out there for more Classic Space LEGO. I'd simply love to be able to buy #918, #928, or #6985 as a "legacy" edition set, similarly I'd like to see #6080 done the same way... perhaps a 'greatest hits' range has legs, but on the evidence of the Legends theme I'm not convinced it…

70. Re: Just how good is set 10223 (Kingdom Joust)

    

    Comment by rocao · March 2012 · Home› Collecting

    Its hardly any more modular that the old castles of the 80's along with things like the blacksmiths, guarded inn, siege tower etc. The Joust set is more modular. The tower of each set is effectively sliced vertically, and joining two makes a single solid building, as demonstrated by the product images. Previous sets have…
