Hapori Tohu Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 The Daily Bruin, University of California, Los Angeles' (UCLA) student newspaper recently did a focus piece on a LEGO maniac in their student body. Aaron Newman, who you all might know as Nuju Metru, , how he got into the hobby, and how he participates in online communities and conventions. It's a cool insight into one of our own, and it's great to see the attention our hobby is getting these days! Give it a watch!

Obsessionist Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Well done! What a great way to share the good news of LEGO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuukaRiou Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 This is pretty cool to see as a fellow student at UCLA. Glad to see you're getting some publicity for BIONICLE and Lego, it's quite a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prorook363 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Huh, interesting. It's nice to know another Bruin that embraces the community of Bionicle too (as well as openly displays their figures on their desks like I do hahaha).

Rooster Nui Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Yeah, it's certainly nice to see someone getting publicity for having interest in Lego, it's not something I'd quite expect personally and I'm grateful for it. Lucky you, Nuju Metru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballom Nom Nom Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 What? You go to UCLA too? Yeah, we totally need to meet sometime! Anyway, congrats! You make a lot of cool MOCs, so it's good to see you getting featured. ~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowl Nightwolf Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Yeah not going to happen. I am on the entirely different side of the continent . Still it is cool to see This video and that the community is being recognized. Also noticed while you said you were on a community, you didn't actually mention it by name. You did shamelessly plug your castle creation... lol. It's cool how many members have already come forth being in the same area as you. Don't think there are any around me....

masterchirox580 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I must admit I'm seeing more BZPower members doing great things, one of us is now working for lego and this guy goes to UCLA (is that a good college?), so much for the nerd stereotype of sitting in their mothers basement eating junk food and typing all day. 1 Quote It's time to move on.

fishers64 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Congratulations and all of that. I must admit I'm seeing more BZPower members doing great things, one of us is now working for lego and this guy goes to UCLA (is that a good college?), so much for the nerd stereotype of sitting in their mothers basement eating junk food and typing all day. It depends on how you define good college. It's pretty strong academically.

Chronicler of the Ages Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Fellow UCLA student. Realy cool to see this. I'm a Computer Science and Electrical Engineering student, so free time to play with Legos is few and far between. But I'm glad others enjoy it even while at this level of academics. Makes me wanna go back to my Bionicles soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
