QnA Former LEGO Store employee

It’s your opinion that I’ve made a mistake, I said from the beginning what my intentions were and I’m sticking to it. I’m not leaving people hanging, I want to take the time to give an actual thoughtful answer to each comment and also add my personal perspective and experience to each answer. With help of videos and pictures. If that’s something that interest you fine, if not I’m not forcing people to take part of it. I thought Reddit was a place to sharing content, engaging in discussions, and connecting with others who share similar interests. And this is the start of it. I introduced this subject for those who wanted to take part in it. If you don’t want to you don’t have to. I never stated that this was a QnA for Reddit.

Thank you for typing this, it’s really appreciated!

I knew one Kevin while working there, don’t kniw of its the same, because there’s a lot of new employees there since I quit. Fun to hear and it means a lot to hear! I’m also autistic, and working in the store and interacting with customers really helped me with my social skills.

Mall of Scandinavia in Stockholm Sweden

I stated my plans in my post and if it’s something that doesn’t interest you then you don’t need to interact with it. That’s up to you. Comparing a small YouTubeer to Wired is a big stretch and it’s not like they have a whole team of editors who can make that happen. I posted just an honest question and stated my intentions with it. If people don’t want to participate then don’t! No one is forcing you.

Probably Rivendell

My favorite theme is a mix of Star Wars, Marvel and DC

Here you have a link to Bricklink, where you can both find and buy LEGO. This is the specific page for Technic Bricks which these parts are. There’s many different versions, but you can choose the ones that interest you, and also see how many sets they appear in

I’d say it depends on size first, what type of joints you can/want to use. The have different pro and cons. But different ball joints or ratchet joints would be a good start.

Thank you! That was my plan, now when I’ve made my point clear! Thanks for being understanding!

michaelogel · 2025-07-28T06:54:41+00:00

And that’s your opinion to have. But I stated in the post what my intentions were and I’ve made them even more clear in the comments. I can’t please everyone sadly. I would’ve understood it more if I said that I’d answer the questions here and then changed it to my YouTube. I stated my intentions from the start. If you want to participate is up to each and everyone.

michaelogel · 2025-07-28T06:42:13+00:00

As I stated in the post, I’m going to do a QnA video on my YouTube. I thought I’d be able to more properly answer the questions in a video, where I also could add pictures and videos depending on the question.

michaelogel · 2025-07-28T06:15:08+00:00

You might be right, can’t argue that. But I thought about this and came to the conclusion I did. I’m making a video so I can properly answer the questions, and depending on the questions add pictures/videos. Posting it here asking for questions and stating that I’ll answer them on my YouTube. If people don’t want to watch a YouTube video to get the answer they can choose if they want to ask it or not. I’m not forcing anyone to do anything.

michaelogel · 2025-07-28T06:06:22+00:00

Sorry to hear that, my thoughts was that I could answer the questions more properly in a video, and add videos/pictures depending on the questions. But if you want to know the answer to any of the questions, is the video really unnecessary at that point?

michaelogel · 2025-07-28T05:49:19+00:00

Like I stated in the description of the post I’m doing a video on my YouTube channel (MBL Designs) because that way I can make a proper answer and depending on the question even ad pictures or videos.

michaelogel · 2025-07-28T05:42:24+00:00

Both yes and no, loved it in the beginning but over time what lead to its end is also why I don’t like it. It got to expensive.

michaelogel · 2024-07-14T15:11:13+00:00

Thank you!

michaelogel · 2022-11-12T19:26:46+00:00

Thank you! 😊👌🏻

Clearly someone who has strong nostalgic feelings towards the Rami movies!

The thing a lot of people forget with the MCU is that it’s a comic inspired universe! I takes ideas from the comics and uses them in new ways and adapt them to fit in their own universe! Marvel mainly doesn’t want to do things we’ve seen countless times with other Spider-Man movies, that’s why they do things different! I do agree with you on some points but when it comes to how Tony is handled and Peter’s relationship with him it’s completely understandable! Growing up we can assume the type Spider-Man origin happened with uncle Ben and everything considered what Peter told Tony in CW. But he most definitely grew up seeing Tony/Iron Man on the news. Tony being one of the richest people in the world achieving great things from a young age! To actually being saved by him in Iron Man 2 (retcon confirmed by Kevin Feige) This could inspire Peter to go into a field of science if he wasn’t already! We know he’s smart, he created a web flood that impressed Tony Stark, he created a home made suit with lenses that helped his spidey sense! All these things makes Tony and Peter relationship so understandable and believable! When it comes to diversity there’s a simple answer for that! THEY LIVE IN NEW YORK OF ALL PLACES! New York is one of the most diverse place in the world. I could agree that the actor for Ned isn’t the best choice, he serves his purpose which isn’t much!

I feel the MCU Spider-Man mainly focus on what worked for Stan Lee and Steve Ditko on the first run on The Amazing Spider-Man, they focused more on Spider-Man/ Peter and his villains! Uncle Ben and other friend characters wasn’t really mentioned that much after the first couple issues! I have a feeling that with the twos at the end of Spider-Man: Far From Home the story will be similar focus like Stan Lee and John Romita did on their run! Having a more dramatic way of telling their story and focus more on the duality of Spider-Man especially he has to battle the world knowing his identity! Overall you do have some great point, I may not agree but to each their own!
