Title: Hi, my name is Peter. And I have an addiction.
Post by: PeterSmith on <09-02-11/1441:39>
I have an addiction to plastic blocks from Denmark. It is only with the love of my wonderful wife that I am able to support...err...work on...ERR...through this addiction.

They still sell the little one. As for the big one, I'm not putting mine back together until after the wife and I have bought a house. There just isn't enough room in the apartment for it.

You fargin' barstad!

It's a title. Please capitalize the "B".

Thank you.

Y'know... If you need a place to store it, I got plenty of room at my apartment! ;D

Bastard...that better?  8)

Seriously, nice. I thought a mini Nebulon-B (thats the Rebel Medical Frigate) I did about ten years ago was nice. This blows that away.

I don't remember that one, actually. Do you have the LEGO kit number for it?

No becasue there isn't one. This was a kitbash I did with random pieces. No where near as good as what is out now, but it was a decent approximation for what I had at the time. It was about 10 inches long and the front section extended about four to five below the forward structure. I still have the core of it, but it's been modified several times over the years and was the visual representation for a Battletech warship concept I worked on in my Heavy Metal Aero program back in the day. I also found a companion ship I did, it was based off the Warrior-class Gunship from WEG (Star Wars D6) Crackens Threat Dossier.

Now, my stepson plays with my old leggos...minus my two ships of course.

That, sir, is AWESOME!

Only if the forward section had been "blown off" and revieled the massive "spear". Otherwise, I'd go with Iron Fist.

Very awesome, good sir!  A very good addiction to have, I'm sure -- especially when one considers the minutia and patience required to pull these things off.

Russians, Chinese, North Koreans, USA, Mexicans, France, and a Coalition of African States.

And that doesn't even include the Zombie Plans.

Where do you think I live?  In some hellhole where high explosives and fully automatic, high caliber weapons are easy to be had?

No, I'm only near the USA...  :(

Started on a Friday, finished on the following Sunday. And I didn't drop any of my usual weekend chores.

ah, happy childhood memories, indeed . .
my aunt used to know somebody who worked in the lego factory . . .
so yes, i got loads of lego for birthdays and christmas and the such.
and my cousin/her son too. he had a frigging sack big enough to fit me in filled with legos!
still can't believe that he sold that to somebody else and not me ._.
but i think i may have to get rid of most of my legos some time soon.
need more room for books and electronics i'm afraid <.<;,
