How I became a YouTuber!

When I was 9 Years old I started collecting Lego and I loved it! Basically I had some Pocket money to spend, and I was in Toys R Us with my Dad, and I was a big fan of the Pixar film Cars. And I liked collecting them. But I was unsure what to get. So my Dad told me "Why don't you buy some Lego?" Not knowing well what it was I said I didn't like it and didn't want to get some. In the end my Dad Convinced me and the first Lego I bought was a Passenger Plane, a small Car, a Lego Racing Car & and a Collectable Minifigure. I started playing with them, and I really liked building and creating my own things. One day I was on YouTube and started watching Lego Stopmotions. I was amazed that Lego Minifigures and stuff moved on their own without seeing and hands in the frame. I was searching the web for how they were made. I found out they were made photo by photo. So I decided to give it a shot and all I did was take a couple of pics put it together in iMovie and voicing it. The videos I made weren't very good. And I kind of stoped making them. Then I restarted when I was 11 and I improved the quality of my videos, by using an app on my iPad. Then when I turned 13 I created my own YouTube Channel (I was using my parents channel before) I called it Rocket Bricks. I was doing good, and I reached 200 Subscribers, then I decided to change the name to The Lego Kidd, and things started to take off. Then when I was 14 me and a friend decided to create a Tech Channel called The Tech Dudes, Because I have always loved tech and I wanted to do something about it. And it was going well but then we kind of lost it and I decided to stop making videos for that channel because I was busy with my Lego Channel. And then a couple of months ago the want for a Tech YouTube channel retuned, when I started watching mainly 2 famous Tech YouTubers called EverythingApplePro and the other one called TechRax. I love their YouTube videos and I wanted to make my own Tech Channel. So I decided to make one. After a lot of thinking what to call myself I decided to call it The Tech Kidd. Because my other channel was called The Lego Kidd, so I decided to keep the Kidd name kind of a brand. The Tech Kidd isn't very big but The Lego Kidd keeps growing every day and I love hearing from my followers, The comments they make want me to keep going and keep improving my content. And here I am now at the age of 15 with 2 YouTube Channels 1,300 Subscribers and over 1M views. I Love what I do and I wouldn't stop at any cost.

Lego Clones & Fakes

Hello Readers!

I have finally decided to restart writing blogs!

In this blog we will be looking at some Lego Clones & Fakes!


To start off lets look at Lego set clones.

The other day i was looking at a long retired set on Amazon (7744 Police Headquarters). When i came across a clone that looks almost identical in design and features. 
It goes for £42.95.

Now here is what the original set from Lego looks like.

See the resemblance!?

Now i'm not going to risk buying this clone because i don't know if it will break easily or worse... won't be compatible with my Lego bricks! And that means no modifications to this £42.95 clone! And thats almost £50 thrown out the window!

But this isn't the only Lego set clone out there. There are a lot more! So be careful to check the title and the logo!

Now another problem is fakes.

I'm sure lots of you find sets like these on eBay.

Now this can be a problem because most of them say its "Lego Compatible"...

Well they might be and they might not be... if they are not you might buy a bunch of minifigs like the ones above. And spend £18 only to find out that they are not very compatible and that they break after 15 minutes of playing with them. Which is why i don't buy these clones and fakes because they are not Lego and i don't think its worth the risk!

Now how do you distinguish if they are fakes or not?

Well usually fakes say "Lego Compatible" or "Fits Lego" or they have lego as one of the last words in the title.

If they are legit Lego you will either see the Lego logo on the box or packet. You might want to buy a specific minifig and you want to buy a legit one on eBay. They always have Lego as the first word in the title!

Now are these fakes and clones Illegal!? 

I'm not sure but to stay safe... stay away from them!
Because they can be a waste of Money.
