"Hello, I have lots of Lego and I'm also crazy"

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

That is simultaneously both the coolest thing I've seen all day and yet another reason why Star Wars fans freak me out.
Grrr. Argh.

Is there someplace to get Lego in bulk or something?

Yes. The Lego Store. I'm not joking.

The first time I hung out with Sprunkner he showed me his Starwars toy collection.
Starwars freaks scare me too.

I used to be one. I gave all my SW stuff away when I moved house two years ago.
Given away, mind - for nothing.

Trust me, as a Transfans I freak out the girls I work with... They think the moneyI spend on TFs would be better spent on them. :D

The crazy ones are the ones who give away all their SW stuff, surely. The sane thing would be to burn it all on a big bonfire, a la Spaced...either that or eBay...
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

:o People who like Star Wars I can understand. I like Star Wars. I'm not a huge fan but I like it well enough.

People who obsess over it to the point of dressing like Boba Fett kinda make me wonder though. So do people who dress up like Harry Potter characters or Sailor Moon characters.

The Lego thing, though, now that is awesome. :D :up:

I had two days to pack up an entire houseload of stuff and get out before the new people moved in. I gave a LOT of stuff away.

I vaguely remember giving all my Lego away years ago too.

A bonfire would have been fun though...
