Hi,
This will probably be my last post for a while, because in a week I’ll be moving
to LEGO Denmark to help developing things for next year. I hope to design a
great model in return for all your supporting and helping comments for the past
few years. Without this support I never would have made it this far!
I’d like to give special thanks to a few persons who always have shown their
personal interest and shared their ideas: Paul D’Urbano
Eric Sophie
Joe Meno
Nathan Bell
Paul Boratko
Thanks guys and of course all the other persons who have helped me in any way!
My first model will probably be for sale at shop@home later this year: Hot
pursuit, grand prize winner of the LEGO Factory contest.
This also would not have happened without your support!
Thanks again!!

Hi Joe,
We’ll have to wait how things will work out, but if it’s possible I’ll try to
drop a line sometimes. We still have our little plan, which hopefully will
surprise and stimulate people. ;) I’m honored and excited that you’ve chosen me
for this cooperation!

Thanks Scott,
I’ll do my best to make both TLC and AFOLs happy. If they give me an e-mail
account, I’ll probably let you know (if that’s allowed)

Awesome Nathanael!
As you have proven time and again with your creations, there is no one more
deserving to be a master builder than you. Hopefully now we can get some
(official) instructions for your alternate models. ;)
Best of luck. I’m anxiously looking forward to your first official set and I
can’t wait to purchase your Lego Factory creation.
Regards,
Andy Evans

From the First Little Bot to this wonderful achievment!
Go Nate Go!

Nathanael,
Congratulations!!! And, I think we should be congratulating TLC, too. You’re a
terrific builder and I’m sure you’ll contribute great things to the LEGO line.
It’s been wonderful sharing in my LEGO fun with you and I’m glad to know you
thanks to LUGNET. TLC made the right move for sure.
Now, whatever LEGO models you get to work on, each set better also make one
kick-butt awesome alternate model!!!! ;-) I can’t imagine there being an
official Nathanael Kuipers LEGO set if there isn’t something jaw-dropping on the
back of the box, too! :-)
I’m so excited for you and excited to know that in the future I’ll be able to
add sets to my collection that were made possible by your talents. And of
course, I already know I’ll be buying your LEGO Factory set as soon as it comes
out.
Best of Luck and Sincerest Wishes for Great Things!

Thank you so much Paul for your kind words!
I’ll do my best for all of you.
I’m not sure what exactly they want me to build at TLC, so we’ll have to wait if
I am allowed to build both main models and alternates..
My first goal is convincing TLC that they have made a good choice... We’ll see
what happens next.

All the good things have been said by others... So I'll stay mum and wish you
the best.

Who wants to bet that Nate will bring us the next REAL Technic Supercar?

Like Keith Hui, all I can say is good luck!

I have seen this coming for quite some time. And I am extremely happy for
you(And us :)
I also promise to purchase anything that you are involved with, even if it has
nothing to due with my taste in that perticular Lego aspect. I will buy out of
Respect to you.
Please keep in touch through e-mail if you can. I can’t wait to see what the
future holds for all of us!
I would also like to wish you good luck, but in all honesty, I really don’t
think that you need it. With your Skill, you don’t need any luck. As a matter of
fact you’ll probably make quite a few “Experts” and “Master Builders” very
envious.
But then again, that is probably why you landed that dream job.
If you can take one piece of my friendship with you, take this...
Be Reasonable, Demand the Impossible!
Live by it.
Take care my good friend.

Way to go! your single set creations have been an inspiration to me, and you
have a great talent for seeing the limitless-ness in inventive constructions in
what many see as ‘limited-piece-builds’. That is the dominant strength you will
bring to the Lego Co., and to us again through the sets you’ll be designing. I
hope you’ll be working on the designer/creator series (maybe you can get them to
re-release the new red car set with the 6th wheel! :) .) how about a generic
space, castle or pirate creator set? kinda like the pod racer bucket; it had a
theme, but was more open ended than other specific star wars sets. i figure the
other designer sets suggested themes tend to be town-oriented, so the other
‘big’ core themes could be explored. Thank you for your great contributions &
congradulations on your new job!

Thank you all!
I’ll try to inform you of the things I am allowed to tell. Hope to give you some
great models in return. Take care and keep on building!
