After watching the American adaptation of Lego Masters, I’ve rediscovered how much I enjoy those tiny bricks. I went out and bought a Star Wars Lego set featuring Ahsoka Tano.
I built the set with my wife while drinking a glass of mead with Empire Strike Back playing in the background. It was an enjoyable evening of building and geeking out.
Sometime later, I bought another Star Wars and Harry Potter Lego sets. One was for me, the latter was for my wife. We put our sets together while watching some show about people transforming terrible tattoos into grander artwork.
I love Lego sets, and I enjoyed them when I was a kid before I became a teenager. I suppose I got busy with college, work, and dating that Lego building fell to the wayside for over 20 years.
I’ll always remember opening up gifts on Christmas and my birthday. I could recall my smile widening excited that I got a space set or a pirate set. I’d open up the bags and assort all the pieces by shape, size, and color. Then read the instructions and build. Read some more and build some more.
As an adult, I’d love that I’m interested in them again and want to go beyond the sets with instructions. Explore and challenge my creative imagination.
Soon, I’ll consider purchasing the assorted brick set and mock-up things I want to build.
Lego builders and masters can put together incredible things and complex artwork. From building small vehicles to life-size tigers. Such breathtaking assemblies are made up of tiny bricks.
It’s something to behold.
