I read on the Lego site ages ago about them re-releasing old sets. I think they already had, and were taking votes on which to re-release next. Big sets like the electric trains and the 80s real world type sets.

Losing Lego was the worst though. All you needed to lose was 1 piece and the whole set was a shambles. My cousins used to steal mine. It takes some bunch of scumbags to steal Lego.

Yeah, coolest site I've seen in some time.

My worst experiences with Legos:

-Losing ALL of my little Lego video cameras when I moved

-Having ALL 5 or 6 of my motorcycles (even the badass black one) having one broken handlebar.

Strangely enough, I never really cared about color coordination. I had a bunch of pieces, but I never got one of those buckets of generic pieces (which would have been a good thing I think). In the attic, I have two large, like 30 x 20 x 12, Tupperware cases as well as a few small ones filled with the brim with Legos.

I had a ton of lego as a kid. Usally I'd get a bunch around the time of year that walmart would mark down the sets that didn't sell. I still have virtually all of it. It's been years sense I was enspired to build anything out of it but I do still have the last 4 things I built. I have a Johnny 5 build out of technic blocks, a hobit like home for a wizard built into a mountain in the middle of a lake, a castle built into a tree, and a kind of crappy red fort made out of a bunch of generic red blocks. I also still have my huge 80s pirate ship put together as it is badass and would be a shame to take appart.

When i was a kid we couldnt afford LEGOs. i mean, common. $10 for a set that builds a small spaceship? fuck that. i had K`NEX. they were the poor-mans lego/linkin logs.

but this, this intreuges me.

dude, you are 2 years younger than me, you did not have k'nex. You would have had to waited until you where 12 or 14 to start playing with them.

K'Nex were cool too. They used to be manufactured in my hometown, huge building with the logo on it. Not sure where they moved to, but they made cool building toys. Not as cool as Lego, but I could still appreciate them. I bought a small K'Nex Mechwarrior model for shits and giggles last year, it's pretty cool. Now, the huge ones... those are awesome.

I built the giant KNex rollercoaster with 3 friends around the time it came out (got it for my birthday). Took a shitload of time but it was sick, the thing was huge. Like 2 1/2 feet high, 4 feet long and 3 feet wide. Too bad the car only made it around the track a tenth of the time. The ferris wheel is sick too.

I to had the rollercoaster, got it for Christmas one year. Me and a friend got out stupid PE to built it in the Science lab at school. That was a awesome year.

I got class credit for building a Knex rollercoaster, for MATH. I don't remember why, but it was what bumped me up to an A in the class in 8th grade Algebra.
