Well seing i am the only 12 year old who actually builds trains for shows, i
think i would have a good chance for the 7-12 age group. I highly doubt
there are any 12 year olds out there that are as good as people here
including me !

Maybe we should start copywriting designs for our models so LEGO doesnt
snatch them up and gets rich off of our ideas when thier designers in
Denmark can even produce a peice of @$#%@$ to please a 12 year old who
enjoys modeling trains in lego. Taking our ideas.. JUST HIRE US FOR THE
DISIGNER POSTITION DANGIT AND STOP WITH THE BULLCRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks for listening to my bull
