Collection: ABOUT ME
🚗 From Engineer to MOC Designer
How a Wish from My Son Changed Everything
My name is Waldi, I’m 38 years old, living in Germany with my family – and I work as a control systems engineer in cryogenic and vacuum technology, particularly in the fascinating world of particle accelerators.
I’ve always been passionate about technology, details, and systems – both professionally and personally. Then one day, my little son came to me with a simple but decisive question:
“Daddy, can you build me a Transformer figure?”
Of course I could. And so – with a wide grin and a lot of heart – Bumblebee was created in 8-stud width.
The sparkle in his eyes was the beginning of something I didn’t fully realize at the time.
A few days later, the next challenge came from my daughter:
“Daddy, can you build our car?”
And I said: “Why not?”
I set out to recreate our BMW F30, brick by brick – without instructions, but with lots of passion, precision, and my engineer’s heart that loves every little detail.
🏁 From Family Project to Real MOC Design
I discovered tools like Stud.io, dove into the world of digital models – and started recreating my favorite racing games from childhood and youth as MOC builds.
Gran Turismo, Need for Speed, Forza – all the cars that once fascinated me returned.
This time not on screen, but in physical form – brick by brick.
Over time, my designs became more complex, more detailed, and more original.
Famous race drivers featured and shared my MOCs – and I realized:
There is a community that loves exactly what I do.
🧱 That’s How My Shop Was Born – For AFOLs & Speed Champions Fans
I started this shop with the goal of offering fellow MOC fans and collectors not just finished models, but a complete experience:
Unique vehicle MOCs
Digital building instructions
Custom stickers
Complete kits with bricks and packaging
All crafted with true passion – attention to detail, high engineering precision, and the desire to bring childhood and design dreams to life.
Today I live with my wonderful wife, our two children, and our dog.
They give me strength and inspiration every day – and sometimes completely new ideas.
Because it all started with a simple question from my kids.
And turned into an entire world.
