Well this is the Lord King of Everything speaking,

This name might sound a bit arrogant, but that is how I always felt when playing with my Lego world. Having the power to terribly mutilate the entire poppulance, killing all the men (I had no children and only 2 or 3 women, who I never allowed to live in the first place) and raising them to live once more.

My supreme reign (shared with my brothers) lasted from when I was about 3 years old till my 14th year of life. At a dark day my father decided I was too old for lego and should start drinking and go out more. My lego cupboard became a coffin and a lid was nailed on it. The coffin was locked away somewhere in the back of my brothers room.

Fast forward in time... (about 6-7 years)

So my girlfriend asked one beautiful day what I would want for my birthday. I really couldn't think of anything. Then I remembered the feeling of when I was a kid, when each present I got was always lego and what a great thrill it always gave when I opened the wrapping paper and tried to rip apart the box as fast as possible to get to the shiny new and unchewed content. So I said to her, I want a lego castle for my brithday (having no idea in what kind of sad state lego castle was at that time). She looked at me weird, but then again I ask weird stuff all the time :tongue: .

She bought the castle of Morcia for me and well when I teared apart the wrapping paper I was filled with such an awsome nostalgic and semisad/semihappy feeling, I knew i had to have more of that. The castle wasn't great, however I did have fun with the combination of those hippie knights and 'poisonous' scorpions.

My next birthday i asked for another castle and got the Kings castle siege, I loved this and made my girlfriend to buy more for me and bought castle lego myself too. In august I finished my study and I am now looking for a job so have unlimited time at my hands. I decided to open the old coffin. I was quite shocked at the state of it all. After spending two weeks washing everything, I was still left with a huge pile of yellowed lego full of toothmarks and faded prints. After this it became clear i could never be as tirannous to those poor legomen as I was when I was a kid, I am giving them a nice peaceful retirement in my display cabinet (and maybe sell the really abused ones as used lego on some auction site :grin: )

I decided to look on the internet if those old sets still existed and came along this really nice site. I lurked it for a while and decided to join in, I'll keep on lurking but will post some stuff too.

Welcome King of Everything! :sweet:

That's a nice story. It nearly made me cry. :cry_happy:

If my parents would ever try and lock my lego up, they wouldn't get away with it! :devil:

I hope you have a nice time here.

Hi and welcome to our forum!

Nice to see that your girlfriend behaves as you want her to behave (i.e. buying LEGO castles for you)... well, you're a king. Disobeying your orders wouldn't be a good idea, would it? :wink:
