Huw

Huw is the main man behind Brickset. He founded the site before half the site's visitors were born, in 1997.

His roles at Brickset are to maintain the website and database code (he's the only one that does this), to continually evolve it to ensure it remains the best LEGO database on the web, and to keep it updated with news, set information, photos and so on.

He's a founder member of the Brickish Association, the UK club for adult LEGO fans, and an ex-LEGO Ambassador (first and second cycles in 2005/6).

When not working on the site or building with LEGO he enjoys photography and cycling around the Solent area of southern England, where he lives with his wife and two daughters.

How the site is funded

Brickset is free for everyone to use and is also free of distracting and unsightly advertisments and it is hoped that it can continue to be.

The site is funded by affiliate marketing. When you purchase something after clicking on a link to eBay, Amazon, LEGO.com, Argos or other merchants, Brickset receives a small commission. It's only small, but it adds up!

All Brickset reviews are moderated and we check them all before they are accessible on the site to make sure the content falls within the acceptable uses of Brickset, and is appropriate for a young audience. It is Brickset's policy to remove or obscure personally-identifiable information posted by a member such as physical address or phone number.
