    I used to be into Models, I have Gundam and a Megaman Models. But not anymore, because I don't have money and the time to work on them.

    I still have a big tub o' legos in my room, although I no longer have the floor space to enact any more epic lego battles. I used tohave like month-long (from the beginning building stages to the ending smashing stages) storylines that usually involved huge mechs (I would use up every joint peice I had to make 'em articulate) and whatever other vehincles I could slap together with the rest of my peices. And there were pirates and ninjas too. And a monkey.

    And I still watch basically the same cartoon shows I did when I was a kid, as my sig could reveal to the more "in the know" of you.

    I used to play a lot with those things that I can't really remember the name for... it was called Constructs, or something like that? Yeah, I used to play with those a lot, and I liked to shoot pellet guns, too.

    I've still got a tub of Lego. Sometimes I make pretty huge buildings (usually very simple, takes about 10-15 minutes) and totally kick it, punch it and smash it to pieces. I like to break things <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    When I was a kid I would build lego structures that where as vulnerable as possible and drop them to see if I could make something that totally broke into it's original components. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Also domino with legos and (long) hair strands that wedge in between a pair of legos at each end that connect the domino in surprising ways that seem totally illogical until you notice the cheat.

    Animorphs! the books that is. Not the rubbish TV version.
  • TestamentTestament Join Date: 2002-11-02 Member: 4037Members
    I totally forgot those books. They kicked ****. Are they still being made? Is the series even still going?

    The series stops at number 54, with 4 "Megamorphs" books, and 4 special books (for want of a different name). One describing how Elfangor came to earth and all his adventures before hand, one describing what the Ellimist is and his past, one describing the Hork Bajir wars, and one showing Visser One's rise to power.

    There are also some other books, i believe. "Alterna-Morphs" where you pick an action and flip to page number X, and some books that are based on/something to do with the TV series, but i never bought those.

    And forgive me if i got any names/spellings wrong... haven't read them in ages. Got them all sitting up on my bookshelf though, heh.

    P.S.

    I should have said that the series ends at number 54, as in, the storyline comes to an end, not that the series was cencelled. Also, the 4 Megamorphs books and the other 4 aren't included in that, so it's 62 books altogether.

    STill got my tub of legos, though they have sat dormant for a few years now sadly. Oh well, I think the aquanauts have had enough adventures against random racer lego's 1 - 10.

    I use to go hunting with me and my buddies. We use to hunt pigeons, gophers, coyotes, and etc. We use to go cemetery hunting late at night, that was sooo spooky, considering I use to live in the country. Hmmm. Going down seventy degree bobsleds during the winter in 4 feet snow and minus thirty degree weather was a blast. Hmmm, building treeforts and riding our bikes to go flyfishing. I also use to build rockets, and etc. But the biggest and most memorable times were
    <b>street hockey!</b>

    mmmm, action figures. Particularly Mcfarlane. Not completely psycho over it like some people get to be, but it's still there.

    I'm 17. I like Harry Potter although the movies are ok/crap. It's funny because I alternate between Tom Clancy and Harry Potter books, quite the combo.

    Action Figures/Collectables (whatever you want to call them).

    Except stuff meant for adults, and usually video game related.

    I got Ash, Vash The Stampede, Wolfwood, Solid Snake, Revolver Ocelot, the Barbarian from Diablo 2, and the Quake 2 Marine :D

    Yeah Games Workshop was awesome. I was totally into that, about... 9 years ago. But I still think it's cool.

    I was into Games Workshop for ages till I realised it was sapping all my valuable paper round money.
    Now comic books sap my valuable bookie money.
