When I saw 'Brick Arena' pop up on my phone from TH-cam I thought 'YES!!! He is back!!! & he is bored of retirement & back to LEGO selling...' :D :D :D ;) + That room look well COOL 😎 & more wider to which is odd(because you have moved the side stuff away of course) + I LOVE the Hi-Fi stuff to & the Vinyl Records & CDs 👍 I'd watch videos on that(I follow a few Vinyl Record fans on TH-cam already as I'm a big fan of Vinyl Records) 😎 Nice to see you back & well man ;)
Haha - sorry to disappoint on the Lego front, there’s no chance of a return I’m afraid. Glad you like the room and the Hifi and record collection. I’ll be sure to post another update with links to any new channel etc
@BrickArena You got to do what you want to do & that makes you happy 😊 👍 Ok cool, I'll keep a eye out for anything new to 😎 Have a cool Christmas 🎄 & New Year 🎆 😎
So lovely to have an update it looks fantastic and you have definitely been busy post Lego. Like other comments missed your videos but I can understand not wanting the stress. Happy Christmas to you and your family
Great to see the update, thanks for sharing. I've watched some other Bricklink seller vlogs lately, but they don't match yours in various way; it was definitely one of the best out there. Thanks for all the effort you put into making the videos over the years. All the best for your future projects!
You have transformed your lego room. I sold my store just before you did and I haven't made much progress at all. Apart from filling a large number of holes and repainting all I have managed so far is to put up one small bookcase.
I have a hard taskmaster who won't put up with any mess for too long :) I enjoyed the transformation and to be truthful the weekend before selling my store I "accidentally" bought the TV and sofa so needed to get a move on.
Welcome back to the world of vlogs! Room looks good. Music channel you say? Umm. 🤔 That could work 🤣. In no way connected with the above, I have been listening to the new Deep Purple cd (=1), a bit of a return to form I would say. And the Frost* back catalogue. And have the new Mostly Autumn and Ghost Machine cds album on pre-order for early 2025.
Oh Dan I've missed our chats :) I'm sure I told you I loved the Deep Purple album, and I'm not a big (modern-day) Purple fan. I've been listening to Frost a little bit too ( I think we must move in the same recommendation circles). I've mostly been re-visiting my vinyl over recent weeks and bought a new (old) CD player at the weekend (after much research and a 6-hour round trip), so am now diving into those too. Having a great quality CD player is really giving them a new life.
Looks great, very jealous of the space. Almost all my CDs are in storage, but our 12 year old has somehow ended up as a big fan of physical media so something along those lines might have to be a plan for the future. Will follow a new channel if you choose to go that way. Out of interest, are you still doing consulting calls for the old Lego? But congrats on the retirement and Merry Christmas! Hope 2025 is a good one for you!
Thanks! I'm loving having everything back out of storage. Be sure to encourage your young one to have the physical media, so much nicer than owning digital files. I'm happy to still do consulting calls if your interested. Merry Xmas to you and yours too.
Nice to see the "Richie Kotzen" video in your collection. You need to invest in some more Joe Bonamassa thought - get it done sir :) Also, you need to get the holy trinity of guitars on that wakk, LP, SC and a TC :) and get rid of that PRS nonsense - lol
I have a ton of Kotzen - might even have to get the pic of me, him and Stevie Salas on the wall too ;) - I know what you mean about the PRS, not a big fan. Started a new music related channel, not much up yet but it will come if you wanna check it out its at www.youtube.com/@BackInTheGroove
At one point you mentioned who purchased your store and that he had a channel. What is the name of his channel? I would like to see his efforts of bringing your stuff in
Once a reseller, always a reseller. I actually had a reasonable month selling off some odd Lego items that were'nt part of the store sale i.e. The UCS Millenium Falcon. But all on a new personal account to avoid fees etc. - I have been thinking hard about buying and selling records & CD's :)
I miss the interaction with the community but not the Lego or the stress of meeting my own upload deadlines. I'm thinking hard about whether I want to start with a new channel, content or audience.

Hi Keith, didn't realise you'd stopped with the Lego selling. Room looks awesome, enjoy your retirement, all the best.
Thanks! Yeah sold up a month or two back now

@@BrickArena Fantastic - I'm the 7th Subscriber :)
Always good to be an early adopter :) - Thanks for subbing.
New man cave!!!!
Yep and loving it
"You've redecorated, I don't like it"... Dr. Who
Have you lost weight? Looking good!
Haha - yeah about 3 stone. Thanks!!
Retirement seems to agree with you-you and room look great! Thanks for sharing this update and enjoy your retirement!
At one point you mentioned who purchased your store and that he had a channel. What is the name of his channel? I would like to see his efforts of bringing your stuff in
It was bought by SuperBricks - you can find them at www.youtube.com/@superbricks_uk
@@BrickArena Thanks Keith!
Thanks
I will enjoy watching him implement ur stuff inside his store like when u bought all that all other stuff
I don't think you have stopped the reseller game there's too many CDs tapes and records you haven't sold yet 😂

Hi same as the first comment miss your weekly vlog do you miss it ?
I miss the interaction with the community but not the Lego or the stress of meeting my own upload deadlines. I'm thinking hard about whether I want to start with a new channel, content or audience.
I sure missed you You should turn your channel into something else like another hobby I definitely would stay.
Maybe a guitar channel? I’d stay for that for sure
Hate to say it but it seems like someone has too...this is absolutely the worst Bricklink store tour you've ever posted. Only one set?!?!?
And that set has now sold too
@@BrickArena Seriously though. Love the new room. Thanks for sharing.
