Beautiful, what can I say, it's probably the best stuff you can give to a  kid.
How is it that I still remember that so clearly.

I played with lego all the time, and now minecraft can be a nice addition to children who want to create but still use the computer.

I still play with lego.
I made a functioning gun which fired a block and ejected one, too. It broke, though

I remember making lots of stuff with legos. I even used bricks in the yard when i didnt have legos.

what is it with cubes being so popular?

[Kulverstukas]

I love legos... I remember my first set was a town of some sort... can't find it now :/
It was my first and I loved it so much...

I love lego. I still have lots of lots of stuff from my childhood.

These instructions are great and I wonder why Lego changed its course that much. Look at the gender segregation Lego does now. This is for girls:

I wasn't too hot on the Legos, but I must have spent literally over a thousand dollars on Bionicles. Don't know how a little 6-12 year me could even afford it. I loved those things. It's a shame they stopped making them. I knew so much about the whole Bionicle world, from mata nui (I think that was the name) to the other nui to all the other Toa guys to the underwater stuff later in the production. It was like I was one of them. Pretty strange in retrospect.

I should sell all those things now that I think of it. I could make a metric fuckton of money.

Yep, Bionicles were pretty awesome too. I also had a set called, 'Meccano.' Any of you guys ever played with it?

I bought two of them, but I was too old to play with them at that time.
I think I would have if I were younger.

lol I tried to make the eyepiece thingy vegeta wore in that Super Sayen anime. It's called a scouter, I believe. Hung it up to my ear with some tape and felt badass. Ah, the good ol' days, eh?

I'm trying to decide how angry to be about the fact that you forgot the name of dragon Ball z.

I never really played with Legos or anything like them. I was always either running around outside coming up with stories, taking electronics apart, or watching either dbz or Naruto. (Starting when I about 4 or 5- when I probably shouldn't have been watching violent anime... total worth it)

Oh yeah! Dragon Ball Z!
