Just finished opening presents.
I think I shocked, scared, impressed some people. They all know I like LEGO. We never talk about what themes or sets I like, but they kinda know some of the things I have interest. When I got my present from my sister-in-law and family, I shook it and instantly knew it was LEGO (almost anyone does - so not impressive). I sized it up and knew it was a $100+ set. I pretended to weigh it in my hands and I said it's either an AT-AT or Star Destroyer. It was kinda big and heavy so I said it's too heavy to be an AT-AT and guessed Star Destroyer. Jackpot! Surprised them a bit.
Later, I got my sister's present. She got one of my kids the new Super Heroes Manta set which was opened already so I knew she had access to new Super Hero stuff. She also knows I'm a comic book super hero guy. I pretended to weight it in my hands again. I assumed it was a super hero set, most likely one of the new ones. I said, this feels like the Justice League jet one with Darkseid. Guessed it right. She was shocked on how I guessed it and the other gift.
I got a kick out of impressing/scaring people with my LEGO sensory abilities. LOL
My wife isn't too happy with my LEGO collection size.
She's the best for putting up with it as much as she has. I've appeased her a bit by starting to sell some stuff via Bricklink.
Hope all have a LEGO filled and awesome X-Mas with family and friends!
