Haven't seen any posts about LEGO in here so I figured I would start one up. I know there are A LOT of LEGO collectors out there... I figure there has to be some sort of crossover between the poster addiction and a LEGO addiction.... or am I the only one?
I'm just getting into it now. It's more my thing than my 3 year olds at this point but he enjoys it (puts the men together and plays with the finished sets) and will have a great collection when he's old enough to start building and adding to it himself.
We have some Star Wars sets and some of the new DC superheroes sets. Brickset.com allows you to keep track of your collection similarly to EB does with art. So far we have 10 sets (8 SW/2 DC) with a total 3180 pieces and a retail cost of $420.
Here are some custom stands we just built for the display in his room:
