I could not agree more I'm forty years old and I still love building creations with LEGO's. I found it really brings back great childhood moments. I spent years without using them. Then one day I spent an afternoon with my nephew building some really great stuff. The next thing I knew I was purchasing and building on my own. That enjoyment and escape had returned. Was there a key trigger that ignited your passion or was it something you have always done? Just curious... Sean Administrator,

I could not agree more I’m forty years old and I still love building creations with LEGO’s. I found it really brings back great childhood moments. I spent years without using them. Then one day I spent an afternoon with my nephew building some really great stuff. The next thing I knew I was purchasing and building on my own. That enjoyment and escape had returned.

Was there a key trigger that ignited your passion or was it something you have always done? Just curious…

My sons love it though as between them they can make fantastic creations. Congrats on getting your stuff back from the thief. It’s not just for kids though…

It's been a while since I used LEGO, but it was my FAVORITE toy as a kid. I would have been heartbroken if my creations and LEGO collection was stolen. Kids build up their LEGO supply over years - every Christmas and birthday we looked forward to another addition to your buckets of LEGO.

Yes, it was a shock. But we're all encouraged and grateful for the community's response and support, and that almost all of it was recovered in various states of disrepair. Most of the train MOCs were shown at BBtB, and hopefully the SF Waterfront buildings at either NMRA or MoAH later this year. Mark Hi Guys,

There are people who are amazed with this kind of things just like the one who developed it. It wouldn't sell in the first place if it won't interest the consumers. I even dreamed to have one but it's expensive. @ David Ross (comment #2)

That is unbelievable. I guess some poeple will steal anything if it isn't bolted down. Someone actually stole LEGO? That is unbelievable.
