Posted May 26, 200816 yr Hey, born in '69 in Belgium. Played with Lego during my childhood (enviro Police station, and the many Legoland town sets, classic space sets and some early 70's sets as well.) Gave it all in pristine condition away to my cousin when I was about 14 years old. Have been collecting Lego sets for some time now. I have found an enviro Police station on eBay several year ago (containing 95% of all the OG bricks.) I own some MIB sets, not many. I love vintage lego and nowadays I am collecting some of the classic Star Wars sets which are all on display in a special toy cabinet. I also like a lot of the special sets available in the Lego store, but you can't buy them all because my budget does not allow it :-) So, that is my introduction to this board. One complaint that might have been discussed on this board already and is off topic. I hate the fact that the new sets are not sturdy at all and break into pieces so easily! The enviro model bricks are like glued to each other while let's say the Republic Gunship Star Wars sets falls into pieces each time you take it in your hands. That is my general complaint about Lego nowadays,... otherwise I love it!
May 26, 200816 yr Welcome Starwars Brick! Well were surely getting a steady increase in members from Belgium, Bonaparte must have order Levée en masse.
May 26, 200816 yr Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte must have order Levée en masse. It certainly feels like a Belgian invasion these days Welcome at Eurobricks! Could you share the name of the town you live in?
May 27, 200816 yr Author It certainly feels like a Belgian invasion these days Welcome at Eurobricks! Could you share the name of the town you live in? Thank you guys. Yeah, I want to share the name of the city I live in, no problem. I live in Aalst which is in the center between Ghent and Brussels. Are any of you guys Belug members? I should show up at the meeting in Wetteren this weekend.
May 27, 200816 yr Welcome aboard fellow AFOL, I remember that police station and the figs with no arms back around my childhood!
May 27, 200816 yr Eurobricks Emperor Are any of you guys Belug members? I'm a member of the Belug forum, that's all. I never visited any of the meetings because I hate to transport myself and rarely leave my town (unless for business trips or going to the Belgian coast). Nederlands or Français? I live in Aalst which is in the center between Ghent and Brussels. Unless he's a French or Wallon imigrant, it's safe to assume he's dutch speaking
May 27, 200816 yr Author My native language is Nederlands that is correct Bonaparte. Edited May 27, 200816 yr by StarWars brick
