I have recently returned home from Denmark where, along with my Extra Pieces podcast collaborator, Jay from Jay’s Brick Blog, I attended the Skaerbaek Fan Weekend followed by Recognised LEGO Fan Media Days in Billund. This was an amazing experience, running at an amazing pace where we got to meet AFOLs from all over the world, LEGO Designers, and representatives of many other LEGO Fan Media. We talk about some of these experiences in our latest episode of Extra Pieces, available of most major podcasting platforms.

We dedicate half of the podcast to asking Designers and Fan Media representatives to identify a set that is of personal significance to them. These folk are listed (in order of appearance) below:

• Ashwin Visser – Senior Graphic Designer, LEGO Icons
