50th Anniversary of Legos
« Reply #2 on: January 31 2008, 11:16:11 AM »
Man, Legos defined my childhood. That and the Tinkertoys. I'd pour over the damn diagrams like an engineer. What always pissed me off was when two flat pieces got stuck together.

I always wanted the Technic sets, but by the time I got old enough to actually be able to use them as intended, my brothers had me outside helping them wrench on 510's and oval window bugs.

I used to use Super Glue when I built shit so that I could make new toys. I'm a fag. I also loved Lincoln Logs.

That was the main one I played with.  The others were too simplistic.

Transformers were better.

Hey, anybody remember the name of the He-Man toy where you put him in under a giant skull and oozed slime on him?
