What's the best thing(s) you've built from them? Did you use the little instruction booklet, or did you do it yourself? And what about those new specialized kits they make? Good or bad? Years ago,my mom bought the generic ones(for my nephews)that look exactly the same,just without the name. On the side of the box, there was a pic of a dog(with a bone),and an elephant. I made them both just by looking at the picture(they were taken on a good angle). I also built a tiny lego village(complete with lego furniture!)for a little girl I used to babysit. I also built her and her sister countless houses--that was my "bribe" to get them to go to bed at night--the promise of their own lego house the next morning in any colour they wanted.(If I wasn't done when their mom came home I'd ask to stay longer so I could finish and keep my promise to them. She always told me they were really happy when they woke up,which made me smile.) Now,about the lego kits..I don't think they're so great. They seem to focus more on playing with the finished product,than building it. 030621 ... god don't kids tie string to the tail of a dead rat anymore? 030621 ... pobodys nerfect Haven't you heard?! That's SO totally last week! ;) 030622 ... User24 pobody: that's true, I don't like the way they're always themed, like harry potter lego, star wars lego, etc. 030622 ... screwing for virginity i would get the castle sets, and the pirate sets, and never look at the book. i would just build a basic floor plan for the mighty castles, sometimes using 3 or 4 platforms, and build up from that. but there were alwase too many swords and lances, but not enough people to use them. 030920 ... u24 I'll soon be playing with the lego mindstorms NXT robot. if anyone else is into this i'd be interested in hearing from you. 061011 ... Strideo I don't mind the kits. If you really want a lego X-wing fighter then fine. If you don't want it to be an X-wing anymore well, hey, they're legos! Just change it. Keep the instructions if you ever feel the need to reassemble the kit. To me it seems both cool and weird sometimes to see movie themed legos like Star Wars and Harry Potter. I think it would be funny if they had legos themed to movies like Chinatown or maybe a karaoke kit from the scene in Lost_In_Translation. The English Patient lego set. ... 061012 what's it to you? who go blather from
