xNick Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 I guys, thought I might as well introduce myself after lurking here for quite a while Anyways, I'm Nick from Australia (in case my forum name didn't give some of that away). Recently (after picking up 8674 last year) I've been browsing Brickset and other places looking at the new Lego sets and admiring how far they've come in the ~6-8 years since I'd last played with mine (the gap was due to being too old to be bought Lego off my parents but too young to have a decent job). So here I am nearly finished uni and with tax time coming up so I thought to myself I'd get my old Lego out of the cupboard and put it all back together (little did I know I've lost one of my three boxes - I'm sure I will find it one day...) Anyways, I've always been into Lego trains and have a couple of sets from the 80s, the old school space stuff, some of the Ferrarri models, as well as the recent Star Wars stuff (but everyone is into that, right?). Glad to meet you guys! Quote
