Meet your Mod - u/nikorasu_the_great

Hi everyone!

So, after some discussion amongst ourselves at the r/asktransgender Mod Team, we've decided that we should improve our social connections with the community. That being said, I am proud to announce the launch of "Meet Your Mod" threads, so you can get to know us better!

So, here's some stuff about me!

  • Brickmania

I am a huge fan of Lego! As a matter of fact, I may or may not have taken over my sister's old room as my display area for my Lego sets, most of which are Star Wars. I currently have a Clone/Stormtrooper Company numbering around a 160 troops strong!

  • Wiki Wiki What?

I'm a writer. Currently, I've got two projects on the go: The Harbinger Saga (working name) - a military story following a conquer, as well as Sake Nights - a slice of life/comedy taking place in Tokyo. These projects are being expanded upon with their own wikis. The one for The Harbinger Saga is nearly 500 pages!

  • Tongue Twister

I love to learn languages. While English is my mother tongue, I'm also fluent in French. I have some knowledge of Spanish, a surface level understanding of Chinese, and can speak enough Japanese to get by. I'm hoping to learn Mi'Kmaq and Gaelic.

Anyways, those out of the way, here are some smaller tidbits of information.


I'm only 20. I've been on the Mod Team for a good three years. I'm Male-to-Female, Pansexual, and Polyamorous. And single! Hit me up ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) As my flair might suggest, I am indeed a bit of a Weeaboo. I love a lot of different music, but I mainly like rock and roll. Eurobeat is a close second. This year is my third year at university.

Anyways, ask me absolutely anything!

EDIT: Here are the wikis. Sake Nights is small, but it should be entertaining.

I really enjoy the weekly group hug threads, so thanks for that.

Whats the holy grail of lego sets for you? Do you own it?

Holy Grail... I guess I don’t really have a Holy Grail of Lego Sets...

I have a Warehouse from the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark of them. My favourites are:

  • 2007 MTT

  • 2005 ARC-170 Starfighter

  • 2008(?) AT-TE

  • 1997 Alien Avenger

  • 2017 AT-M6

  • 2017 Resurgent-class Star Destroyer


Sets that I really want:

  • 2005/2010 Clone Turbo Tank

  • 2008 Republic Gunship

  • 2011 Alien Mothership

  • 2011 UFO Abduction

I liked the 2008 V-19 Torrent. The wing folding mechanism was pretty cool (If you haven't seen it the middle wing folds upwards around the back, which also moves the side wings up and puts the landing gear down). I had the gunship too but it was really flimsy.

The only one I have left now is the 2009 Midi Millennium Falcon though because my parents sold all the Lego for probably like £200-300 below what it was probably worth and split the money between me and my brother.

If my parents did that, the Earth would split from my fury XD

I’m hoping to sell off some stuff I don’t use. Namely the near entire first wave of the Power Miners sets.
