Remembering Jørn Thomsen
I first met Jørn when I started working on LEGO Boost in 2016. He kept mostly to himself and built all kinds of amazing functions. As the months went by I got to know him better. Then we started talking about the sets he designed. I realized he needed a brick list.
He would always tell us “stone is better”
This means building with bricks is more fun than building with plates.
The M-Tron magnet holder was one of the first elements he designed.
I had the great honor to work with him for several years.
Tragically, on March 9 he lost his battle with mesothelioma.
He was 66.
He will always be with us in our hearts and all the wonderful toys he made.
