I think that the TLG has been suprised by actual amount of adult LEGO fans. TLG has been even contacted me to get actual number of LEGO fans here in Finland!
Oh, and the MOC segment is much better now.

Close but not quite- Woodfield is in Schaumburg, a suburb of Chicago, about an hour’s drive from the Windy City.

Great episode, I love the new “MOC Of The Week” format, it’s really good to hear the builders talk about thier work and answer questions.

I like the new version of the MOC of the week segment, but I think I’d combine the two approaches in the future - maybe let the builder talk about their MOC first and then let the person who picked fill in any details that were missed (and ask questions). I don’t think anything was missed this time out, though, so I’d count it as a success.
I came out a little tinny - not sure if that’s Skype’s fault or my microphone’s fault. Hmm. Anyway, I’ll be plugging this on both LMOTD and Dan’s Projects over the next few days.

These episodes are getting better and better. This one is really nicely done. I like the improved way of hosting the MOC of the week segment. Good effort hunting down all those builders and good planning as well.

MOC section is definitely cooler now, good job planning on getting the builders on Skype. Look forward to the next one.
