???theriddler??? Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 How did you come/got/find Eurobricks? (hope ya understand! ) My story: I was on a forum called "De Bouwsteen" and there was a link to Eurobricks! And that's how I got here! What's yours? Quote
Shoc Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I was on a forum called Minifigure Customization Network (which I found in '05 via Google search for new Lego sets), and it often linked to frontpage updates on new sets on Eurobricks, so after visiting EB a lot, I decided to join. :skull: Quote
JCC1004 Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I was on a forum called Minifigure Customization Network (which I found in '05 via Google search for new Lego sets), and it often linked to frontpage updates on new sets on Eurobricks, so after visiting EB a lot, I decided to join. :skull: I found it that way too. I was looking for new sets and found EB. I visited EB a lot then joined. Quote
Ricecracker Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I was googling stuff about Lego for a while, and found EB. After lurking for about a year, I decided to join. Quote
Skinny Boy Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Looking around on Brickshelf in late 2005, I saw the very first pics of the Batman license preview. It wasn't a set, just him in Lego version on a rooftop. I then searched the web for 'lego batman' and the EB frontpage came up! I remember printing out the frontpage to show my friends in school. I soon joined to discuss the theme, and other things. Quote
Aliencat Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I don't remember who, but someone sent me an e-mail that one of my creations had been spotted here. I read the comments and decided to register to reply. I stuck around since then :) Quote
Tim Bit Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 While googling the phrase "New Lego Sets" on google I came across brickset. Front-paged on brickset it said new pics of 07 sets at eurobricks. So I followed the link Lurked around here for a year and a half and decided to join. Quote
Lego12 Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I was an avid member on Brickset, which I found when I was looking for a set that hadn't been released in a Lego Magazine. Then Huw, (The owner of Brickset), linked some things to EB. I looked at EB, but never went past the frontpage. I didn't join because of the "Euro" in Eurobricks. Then, after a while, I joined. It was a great decision and I'm glad I did. Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Well i saw one of my creations being discussed, so i decided to join and reply in the thread. The rest is history... Quote
CF Mitch Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Mine's pretty much the same as ???theriddler???'s... I was on the Dutch/Belgium De Bouwsteen where they talked a lot about EB, so I decided to check 'that popular place' out Greetings, CF W Quote
Millacol88 Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 After the 2007 line of Star Wars lego persuaded me to get back into the hobby, I frequented brickset as they often had new sets displayed there. Someone there told me that a website called Eurobricks was notorious for turning up pictures of yet-to-be-released sets. I visited it and, after lurking for a few months, I joined. Quote
Peppermint_M Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I was reluctant to join a community that discussed my favourite hobby, so I looked around and Google came up with Eurobricks when I searched LUG and AFOL. It looked ok so I jumped in. Quote
Bricks Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Since I have Internet, I'm in search of a webpage for LEGO-Fans. So I joined a German LEGO-Star Wars forum, they got always their news from eurobricks. Till I saw the EB-Forums my decision was clear....join the greatest english speaking forum ever 'Bricks' Quote
Erdbeereis Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I had just gotten back into LEGO, and was looking for a good on-line community and then found Eurobricks. It's as simple as that. Quote
Natman8000 Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I found this site when I got a link from brickset to here. I kept coming back and back until I finally joined. I'm very happy here and I cant find any better place. Quote
Dragonator Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 EB was recommended to me by a friend, and I'm sure glad it was! I'm sure I would never have found it on my own. Quote
I Scream Clone Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I found EB through FBTB, where there were heated discussions on "respecting the brick". This prompted me to head to Eurobricks on the mention of other FBTB members, and very quickly found a home. Riddler, I hope you don't mind me fixing the title to make it a little clearer, as I think a great topic like this needs all the attention it can get. Cheers Quote
hollisbrick Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 So do you want the long or short story? short The long? No the short! The long it is then Well I used to be absessed with the Fett's and I was looking for some custom lego Fett figs on google. Then one of the pics I saw lead me to FBTB. "What an awsome sight!" I thought. So I lurked around there for a while. Eventually I decided to join but alas they didn't accept my e-mail So I looked at some of their friends and I saw EB! I lurked around there for a while until I eventually joined! Okay maybe not so long? Quote
CommanderCody77 Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Well I found it by always going to Brother Brick and Bzpower. They always talked about it so I took a look at EB and I decided to join Quote
Zorro Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I found this site while googling for LEGO Napoleonic armies and ended up in one of Bonaparte's threads. I was sold immediatly back then and still just love this website. Quote

prateek Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I searched "Lego" on Yahoo (Better than Google) and this site was the 3rd or 4th site so I clicked and... TA DA! Quote
The Rancor Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 I think I was actually desperate to get more sneak peaks of Lego (because the magazine isn't enough)! so... I typed in soemthing like "2007 new sets" and EB came up. I actually first used Brickset. Quote
