Tariq j Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Hi all, I was just wandering if there was another topic about how you found out about EB if not then i'd really like to start one. Thanks Tariq j Quote
Brickus Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I'm pretty sure I've seen a topic like this, however I found EB through google searches for LEGO. Quote
Tariq j Posted July 16, 2013 Author Posted July 16, 2013 Hi brickus thanks for the reply i'll have another look through the forums to see. Thanks Tariq j Quote
Leo604 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I basically searched 'Lego forum' and picked the one that looked the simplest. Quote

lightningtiger Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Actually I found EB through a link on Brothers Brick......visited for a few months before joining and I have not regretted it one bit......it's been a blast so far and ready for more in the future. Brick On everyone ! Quote
eurotrash Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I emerged from the Dark Ages with a copy of 7051-Space Tripod Invader and I wondered what other's thought of it. A quick google search led me here. I put my feet up, made myself a cup of Tea and I've never left. Quote
The Ghost Racer Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I found it looking for pictures of trial trucks on google. I already knew it, but I had forgotten its existence xD Quote
megabot22 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 brickset methonied something and i decided to look and found rhis website and joined it Quote
N-4K0 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I searched Google to find good reviews on the 8110 Unimog U400 in the spring, to find out more about the parts used etc. before buying it, and among the results was a review on this "site" eurobricks.com. I found out it was a forum, and started reading more topics in the Technic, Mindstorms & Model Team section. And eventually I had to register and take part of this forum Quote
Captain Settle Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I searched on Google for reviews of Avengers sets. I found them, wanted to join in discussions, so I signed up The funny thing is, only about ten of my posts are in the licensed forum! Quote
-Carson Haupt- Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 People on Mocpages were posting about the Guilds of Historica and I wanted to join. 11 months later I did. Procrastination much? Quote
RaincloudDustbin Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I was really into the HP line and by chance found the winter break contest and joined a few weeks later... Quote
Grimmbeard Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I knew about Classic-Castle and Forbidden Cove, and through them I learned of Eurobricks. I basically left Forbidden Cove for the Pirate forum here. It was a great decision. Quote
Tariq j Posted July 16, 2013 Author Posted July 16, 2013 Hi all thank you all for your replies, here's my story: I was looking for reviews and found EB they were so good I looked further and joined! Tariq j Quote
TheLegoDr Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I think I was slowly getting back into the idea of LEGO after a really long dark ages, so I was looking at flickr groups and someone that I liked on there had a link to a eurobricks post. Then I started checking out the site more and more and eventually joined after lurking for about a year. It definitely helps eat away the day when I have nothing else going on. Quote
tomdobs55 Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 The laml podcast(is that still updated?). He had Hinkley on in one episode talking about classic town. Quote
Andy D Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 The question for me was not somuch "how" I found Eurobricks, but why was I hunting. Back in 2010 when I was more interested in Mindstorms and Technique I was hunting for information on the new 8043 Excavator and I found lots of info here. I soon discovered the Cafe Corner and my interest in Modular buildings soon followed. Andy D Quote
Chase McCain Posted July 20, 2013 Posted July 20, 2013 I was reading and old article about Gerry Burrows's Garrison of Moriah and amongst the comments there was someone reffering how he left his Dark Ages and joined a community online. I considered the idea and looked for a Lego Forum on Google dedicated to adults. Quote
bgalakazam Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 I was looking for some instructions of a Pirates set I had as a child. If I knew about this community earlier I would have joined. I also found about Brickset at the same time. Quote

LEGO Guy Bri Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Something reminded me of how much I liked LEGO as a kid, probably ebay. I think I had been googling "LEGO city layouts", or something "LEGO". Ended up finding the Brick Factory instructions site and Brickset, eventually ending up here. After a week or so, of looking around, I joined up and haven't left. Thank you EB & LEGO for making sure I don't have two pennies to rub together Quote
krystalKING Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 I showed a fellow lego fan brickset and brickshelf, and he pointed me to Eurobricks as part of our exchange. I have lurked here since 07, but I joined when the prince of Persia contest began, I had kept saying I would sign up, and the contest provided me the perfect reason to. Quote
DoubleT Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Hmm i did not find Eurobricks...... But some French guy ;) Quote
