Firefly Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 So I paid a visit to my big sister's family today. Of course her boys (2,5 and 4) were all to happy to invite me to build some Legos. Guess what uncle Firefly built... If I ever have kids of my own, I am going to consider a steady supply of new Lego kits my absolute priority.

Klaiber Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 That's the great thing about Legos... you don't need a kit or an instruction manual. You just create. When's your wind tunnel test? EmerlistDavjack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, I used to love them as a kid. Putting this little plane together brought back so many memories... I think I know what I'm gonna get both my nephews for Christmas. Perhaps I should get myself a set too? 2 hours ago, Klaiber said: When's your wind tunnel test? It's gonna be a while, need to build a tunnel first...

Lee Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 There was a family renting our oceanfront house one week when it rained every day. From the comments they left in the guest book, they were starting to get cabin fever and were a bit depressed................ until they found the Legos! We have a couple of big bins of legos in the house for rainy days acquired over the years at garage sales. Apparently saved their vacation.

Barton Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 First thing I can remember creating with Legos when I was a kid was a biplane. Was the coolest kid in preschool for a week. EmerlistDavjack and J5_Hotlead 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmerlistDavjack Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 The best part about Lego creations was always destroying them. My brother and I would build forts and bombers and stuff and just hurl them at each other until the forts fell apart...and then we could do it again next weekend.

I’ve lost all my Star Wars LEGOs piece by piece, and they’ve been glued on initial assembly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they take .177 pellets only moderately well, all things considered (once we got older). That was more of a plastic green army men thing, though.
