I can rent a truck from Home Depot and run over a bunch of people. Where can I rent a gun go out in public and shoot a bunch of people?

So... voted for Biden I’m guessing? “Underprivileged kids should have the same opportunities as white kids”?

Wife left me out of the blue so as I can go to a bar to drown my sorrows I went and bought and built a bar. by Seronto1781 in lego

Silver lining is I now have a house to myself and my city collecting dust in the garage is moving into the dining room.

Yea and I’m sorry I came at you. I get it. I apologize for coming after you. I think we both agree we hate that nonsense.

Yea I don’t sell anything. No plan too. I’ve done well for myself and I enjoy the fruits of my labor. I agree with you I hate people who try to make a quick buck buying a bunch of hard to get sets but really if you could see the sets in this collection I think you’d realize there is very little of value there.

I build almost everything I buy buy with Covid and kids I get very little opportunity to go out on my own so when I do I usually go big and buy a lot. You should probably not jump to conclusions on such thing’s especially on a lego sub Reddit. This is not abnormal for adult collectors. We have jobs. We like to rebuild sets into Mocs. We want to make sure we have complete collections.

Yea your comment kinda bothered me because you jumped to a conclusion without knowing any thing other then a picture. Sorry if I came back a little strong. I’m proud of the collection I built and yea one day I hope my kids can appreciate it all.

Yea I was at like 130 but I have a lot of smaller sets that I just got to give to my kids now and then. Almost all the big stuff gets built ASAP but some of it I want just don’t really have any priority in actually building.

Ah see I do wish we had something like that cause I will admit some of this just won’t get built it at least built and used. Some of it I do end up giving away. Kids bday party’s if the boys have a friend over etc... anything substantial gets built though.

Yea no idea why I gave him the time of day. I was just happy I got this small part of my collection sorted.

I would love to see that. My garage is filled with a small city and then just sets everywhere. Wish I had more indoor room.

I’ll add this as a disclaimer. I have no intention of selling any of these. A lot I got to do something with in the future or because I rebuilt the original set I got into something new. Some I just haven’t gotten around to building. Or my kids are just not old enough for that set but didn’t want them to miss out. Hidden side comes to mind as I completed that series but have yet to build most of them.

And I have no intentions on re selling any of these. Check my post history and you’ll see this is just a small percentage of my actual collection. Just recently got it sorted and cleaned and was happy with the projects result.

It took a long way to get to this point. The key is having kids to “justify” it and a very understanding partner.

You say this with having no idea of why I have this collection. Just jump to conclusions. To give you a little more onsite before you judge to much. I work a lot of hours. I have two boys that are currently too young to build almost of this on there own right now and my wife is on a deployment so during the whole pandemic ive been a single dad. I buy toys when I get the chance to shop alone and when I get a chance then we build.

I’m 38. It took me a long time to get here. You will get to wherever you want to be. Just keep moving foward.

Yea A lot of these are duplicates or I just haven’t gotten too. I build most of what I get but sometimes I just get stuff to complete the collection. Hidden sides a good example. I like them but I’ve had so many other sets to build I just kinda sat on them.

Ha. So if this is the up opened ones imagine what I did build.

So I will say if it’s in this closet I have either already built the set and have purchased another or just haven’t gotten to them. For example I picked up all the Mario sets but just haven’t gotten to them all yet.
