One Man and His Lego
Wednesday, 9 March 2016
Rev T loves Star Wars Lego. Welcome to a short tour of his collection:
Do you love Lego or live with someone who does? Let me know in the comments. Particularly if you've got any ideas of how to make it hurt less when you've trodden on it.
Our son (who is almost 30) LOVES Lego and is in the process of building his own giant - to scale - Millenium Falcon. He buys lego pieces on ebay to create his projects and even designed a whole collection on the Lego design site where he got 10,000 votes but Lego decided not to go ahead with his idea. So your husband is not alone in his Lego craziness (PS we're Baptists too so it might be something in the blood!)
Wish I had tips on how to stop lego hurting when you stand on it, but sadly I have none! I used to love making lego school and lego families with my sister when I was younger. And might I say that those models are pretty impressive! #sharewithme
My son is an avid fan as well. He has quite a few star wars sets, but I think my husband bought them as much for himself as for the boy! x Alice #coolmumclub
Ha ha, this reminded me of my Mum who is married to a collector of all things Dr Who. My advice, get a glass cabinet and stick it in a dark corner of your house! Thanks for linking up to #coolmumclub
Love that we both have Lego posts this week!! As you know I don't have any hints or tips or the pain that Lego inflicts. Thanks for linking up #bestandworst
Nothing can stop Lego from hurting you. I have loads of lego - both my wife and I love it and we knew it was true love when we mixed our lego together.
I like lego. What isn't there to like. I can't say i have any sets as such but i did build my son some small characters from the iblock fun. I'm hoping my son grows up playing and wanting lego then i have an excuse to build too.
That is quite the collection! I hear they make slippers to withstand stepping on Legos ...I have yet to check it out and I don't know why since I'm quite certain I have permanent foot damage from the damn things. Thanks for linking up with #momsterslink!
Wow I am very impressed and as my son would say I am "Super" impressed with this... so talented. I think B is going to be a lego builder when he grows up too. Thanks for linking up to #ShareWithMe.

ReplyDeleteWow, please share photos when you're finished! We both love to see them
DeleteThose look awesome. I'm jealous of his patience
ReplyDeleteThey are! The Death Star took over a week and the instruction book was massive! It's quite impressive though. (And weighs a ton!)
DeleteThat's some collection. My sons are just starting to love Lego #bestandworst xx
ReplyDeleteIt's taken him years to build up. It's a great hobby though as you can do so much with it. Apart from the bits being small and painful ...!
DeleteAhhh this is one epic collection! Love them all! I can come and play too, right? lol! Thanks so much for linking up with #MadMidWeek
ReplyDeleteI'll have to ask the owner, but I can't see a problem. Thank you for commenting and hosting each week :)

These are all Rev T's. The Tubblet isn't allowed near them! Hopefully your son is having better luck. Thank you for commenting

ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up to #coolmumclub
Unfortunately you've suggested that to the wrong person, I love Who! Ah well :)
DeleteThese are so COOL! Can you tell I am a HUGE Star Wars fan! My sons love their Lego but they never seem to stay intact! #momsterlink
ReplyDeleteThe Tubblet destroys all her sets to make other things, but Rev T keeps them. Who, Lego and Star Wars. I always knew you were a woman of taste
DeleteLove that we both have Lego posts this week!! As you know I don't have any hints or tips or the pain that Lego inflicts. Thanks for linking up #bestandworst
ReplyDeleteThat so made me laugh. What are the odds. If I ever find a way, I'll let you know :)

ReplyDeleteThat is truly love :).

ReplyDeleteMost children love Lego so you should be okay when he's older. Thanks for commenting
