Right, My LEGO story:
My first ever set was the 6477 LEGO Fire Truck from the very early city range. That was in 2000, 10 years ago! I was 4.
Since then I got more sets as birthday and christmas presents, and occasionaly bought myself one with saved up money.
After about 5 years, I had a ton of LEGO, most of which is now in the loft becuase I don't use it, but I couldn't bear chucking it away.
After a little break from LEGO, I got some Technic, and loved it! I loved the fact that it was some more, sorta, I don't know, you could make bugger things and more complex shapes with it.
Now, earlier this year, I bought myself Mindstorms NXT 2.0. They are amazing, and I can't stop building with them, and I keep on expanding my Technic range. To give you an idea of how much I have, I have two toolboxes stuffed full of it, and a built Technic Race Truck with over 600 pieces sitting next to my boxes. I have at least, what, 4000 pieces and more in my toolbox. Possibly 7000 pieces? A lot, yeah.
So thats my LEGO story.
On the LEGO Universe topic:
DON'T BUT IT! Yet, anyway. Yeah it looks amazing, but it is a complete rip off. Even staff from a lego shop told me that. He said that you should wait 6 months, or until the prices go down because they will relalise they are charging to much when no-one buys it. So wait peoples, and then you shall see (hopefully)

BTW, it is an AMAZING game.
I'm gonna buy it (I already pre-ordered). So keep me in mind when it goes down cheaper.

Actually, if you want to buy it, then ignore that, and just go here.

Wow, for a small model, it's pretty pricey. How is the overall price determined?

I've figured out it's pretty much about 10.00 for the customization cost added on and then somewhere around 15-30 cents a brick.

Nobody mentioned the amazing Lego Racers game...
I loved that game... I had it on my very own lovely Nintendo 64...

Pretty detailed huh?
Ah, those LEGO train sets, how I love them so. I like how they designed the trees instead of using those regular plastic trees that look like weird combs.
All I'm stuck with is LEGO Loco for the computer.
