LEGO has been in my life since my early years.
I was five when I got my first set (Space Dig-
ger #6822) and ever since, I’ve been hooked. As
a young man, I gathered almost every Classic
Space set, I dabbled a little in the Castle theme
and ended with Technic. When the first computer
hit our home, the LEGO got shelved in the attic.
And so my Dark Ages began. Cue college, univer-
sity, studying, meeting my wife, having kids, and
even buying some LEGO for the little ones. Sud-
denly it’s 2010 and the first Atlantis sets hit the
shelves. I see the Gateway of the Squid set, and I
find myself hooked again. Majorly hooked.
Why LEGO? Simple: it opens up a world of pos-
sibilities, with the only limitation being your
own imagination. ...
