Me too ^. Imagine dropping it on the floor and having to rebuild it :lol:, (most likely he's taken note of what he's done though).
 
Here are pics of my latest sets. I went a little crazy. :crazy:

I've received this for Christmas, I know its only a little mini-figure set but I love it! Near impossible to get in the UK according to my parents :dopey:

That Camper is amazing. You will love it when its built. Check a few pages back if you want to see my Camper along with the Beetle that was released a few years ago.
 
The Camper Van is awesome, I put it together a while ago. Definitely a good looking model.

===

I scored this off a eBay several months ago and never got around to putting it together until tonight. Kit Fisto is one of my favorite Star Wars characters and being able to get a Mini Fig of him and his ship is pretty cool.

Set #8088 for those interested.
 
I think I still have the old 90s catalogs somewhere, I loved those. Two particular sets I always wanted was the Aquanauts Turbo Fan (I believe it was called), and Ridgeway Racers kart set (seems this is also known as Victory Cup Racers) but couldn't get either anywhere.

Of the sets I did have from most other 'genres' of lego, great times were had, best 'toys' ever.
 
I had the aquanauts turbo fan. Memories. I gave all my Lego to charity in my teens, but one I still wish that I kept was "the batlord's fortress". My sister "lost" a specific piece and I was never able to finish it. Hopefully I'll find the complete set for sale someday. Some of the sets I had seem to be fetching quite a bit of money nowadays.
 
Got a Tiefighter for Christmas, I will bob up some pics tonight or maybe tommorow.
 
I went to the Brickvention Expo that was held in Melbourne a couple of weeks ago. These are some of the pics I took.

Someone needs to make Galactica now, that would be great, maybe even the Enterprise.
 
I bought a small set of Lego recently, the dirt bike transporter. :)

There's a video on youtube of a guy who made in 6 years and 4 months the yamato battleship in legos
 
I got bored one evening over Christmas, so I built a Super Mushroom (GT5 case to give a sense of scale):

I also got this from my sister...

...and now I want an unlimited Technic supply. Ah well. Good book though.
 
I'v been on Legos since I was very small, but I got bored fast, even the big trucks for 10-11 year olds I would build them in half hour (when I was 7 or 8). From that I always build something random, normally cars or something with wheels. I will shwo them tomorrow probabily. :)
 
In 2nd grade we used to build flying "ships" and run around the classroom during Free Time lol

Basically they were just legos we stuck together that took the basic shape of a flying ship or a square lol
 
That Battleship on youtube is amazing as it the Super Mushroom. How long did it take to build the Mushroom? Here are some more pics from Brickvention.

How long did it take to build the Mushroom?

An evening to build, then another evening to take it all apart and rebuild it once I realised that 1 brick + 2 plates high = 2 studs wide. I only made a Super Mushroom (as opposed to a Mario or some other character) because I had a lot of bricks in the appropriate colours.
