My fascination with LEGO began... It's all began in 1976, when our parents give us a 1968 universal building set (#033] that given as a gift by some relatives living in Germany, for my elder sisters birth, and had been waiting on the top shelf for us to be grown ups enough not to swallow its small pieces.

I once built... I've built many many things during my childhood. From life size pistols to working teleferics. Lego was a very efficient tool to support whatever game you wanted to play. I remember my first big scale model was a technic semi-truck, having 8860 wheels and a working 2-cylinder in-line engine with working steering, rear suspension and diferential. I was 12 when I built this, and couldn't have forseen that I couldn't built it again after taking it apart, since I didn't built anything this much complex and or/big (I had been just given 8860 as a gift and it was a blast on my lego amount at that time) before. After this, I've always prepared building instructions for the large scale models before taking it apart, by hand drawing before the darkages and using LeoCAD for now. Even I remodeled my old hand drawn instructions of MOCs from 1980's using LeoCAD and you can see some of them on LeoCAD Model Gallery site.

Someday I will build... At the beginning of 1998, my greatest project was building big scale Star Wars vehicles, but after the shocking news about the licence agreement between Lucas and Lego, many of the fans around the world produced examples of such models in such a perfect shape that it immediately dismotivated me..:-) Now I'm dreaming of building WW1 and WW2 era battleships, and still wishing to have more gray bricks..:-)

LEGO is great because... Yes, it is great because, ehm..yes..because..uhm..I don't know..anyway, it's just great..:-)

LEGO fans are great because... They make me not feeling like a lonely mad alien from a distant galaxy, that should be fed with colored plastic...:-)
