(...) Between 200 and 220 sets. Roughly 50 to 60,000 pieces (...) About 16 years. But i have gone for years where i didnt buy any. (...) I thought you are as young as you feel. I'm still in my childhood. ;-) (...) Any time i can. My lego area is (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Units and the like (was Re: Erik leaves home)
 
(...) Alas, no, it's not that sophisticated, although it did have such esoteric units as drams and fathoms. I should write my own utility and plunk it up on the net. All it is is simple math. (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Questions for those with LARGE collections...
 
While I'm not a heavy hitter by any stretch of the imagination, I do have a pretty decent collection. (...) 50k pieces is probably accurate. I really need to do another round of sorting and inventory. All of the Star Wars sets (plus bunches of other (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Questions for those with LARGE collections...
 
(...) Ah... didn't we all? :) ["They're uh... for my nephew!"] (...) Some of these sound like RTL roll call questions-- maybe we should bug Todd to put some of this info in our member info pages? At least basic stuff like # of pieces, collecting (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Survey...
 
(...) I'm going to need to count my castle theme minifigs soon. I just counted my pirate theme minifigs the other day and came close to 1000, I bet I have a similar number of castle minifigs. (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: [CW][OT-FUN] Casting Castle World
 
(...) Robin Williams, definiteley... although he doesn't look too goo with a beard... (...) LOL! Agree to both ;-) (...) Hmm, you'd have a prob with Leo and Matt in the same movie... they look too much alike. I don't know all my cast, but here goes: (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Questions for those with LARGE collections...
 
(...) Well over 200k pcs (I think my set listing which is no wheres near complete, really only shows sets which are built or sorted, I think had over 200k pcs, it's probably about half done). (...) Closing in on a year now. (...) None. (...) Almost (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  ( warning, sacrilege) Customized pieces
 
(Warning, sacrilege ahead. Not intended for the faint of heart :) OK, I've actually done it. I cut up a lego piece. (I've joined the dark side :) See it here: (URL) This is my design, nobody told me about it or inspired me. It came to me while (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Questions for those with LARGE collections...
 
Bill, I'm not sure if most would consider me a heavey hitter but I'd like to respond. For me it's been about eight years since my (...) Sounds like you have a good marraige, because you are aware that LEGO has to fit in with your other priorities. (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Questions for those with LARGE collections...
 
(...) Don't know if I qualify, but... (...) Best estimate is 60,000+, but my estimates get fuzzier as time goes on - I really don't bother keeping that close a track of it. A very significant chunk of that is in buckets and service packs. (...) (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Questions for those with LARGE collections...
 
(...) Me either... I DON'T have a large collection, but still... (...) Sounds right to me... (...) LOL! (...) I have (as I mentioned earlier) much less than that. I have around 100 minifigs but most aren't castle figs. I wish I had a 100-minifig (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: ( warning, sacrilege) Customized pieces - note
 
(...) (Just a note - Richard Marchetti is the one who thought about the Jet face modification. However, Craig brought my attention to it in his page. Thanks, both of you!) -Shiri (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Questions for those with LARGE collections...
 
(...) I would not consider myself a real heavy hitter but hear goes. (...) My guess is that I have somewhere between 20,000 and 30,000 pieces. And I only have probably 200 or so figs with only about 20 of those being true castle figs (If you count (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Pawel's site
 
Hi everyone, I just noticed Pawel's site is nominated to Cool Lego Site Of the week! Congrats, Pawel, I hope you win! (You deserve it!) -Shiri (25 years ago, 17-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: ( warning, sacrilege) Customized pieces
 
(...) LOL! (...) Well, I don't know about that... but a month ago, I wouldn't have thought I'd ever customize a piece either... Ya never know, I guess. -Shiri (25 years ago, 17-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: [CW][OT-FUN] Casting Castle World
 
(...) Since I used the Qui Gon head for Erik I guess I could cheat and say Liam Neeson. After all he can use a sword and has an accent (that's not american). The only draw back is I see Erik as about 20 years younger. Hmm, I'll think some more James (...) (25 years ago, 17-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

You say that now... but when you start getting a hankering for a Viking hull, I'll be hearing all about Mega Bloks, and where can I get one then. Hehehehe. Rich Have Fun! C-Ya!
