Meet the team

CAROLINE AND NICK
THE FOUNDERS AND DIRECTORSCaroline and Nick have always been huge LEGO fans. Back in the day, they used to make friends and family members into custom minifigs for fun (initially using decals, varnish and permanent marker). This gradually evolved from a creative hobby into a business idea back in 2012. These days, now we have a bigger team, they tend to focus less on the actual minifig making and more on boring administrative tasks (much to their dismay)! They live in Sheffield with their three daughters, two cats and huge amounts of LEGO and boardgames.
