Lego Car

I forgot all about this. If you haven't looked at my profile yet, I love Legos. I built this when AF was down and it's been sitting in my room for a while.

This reminds me of one time when I got into a discussion with my friends about what the world would be like if everything was made up of colorful interlocking bricks... we reasoned that home improvements would be far easier - but that some things like cars would be less safe, because if you crashed the cars would disintegrate into piles of tiny plastic bricks - in other words if you're planning to take that thing out on the street - drive carefully.

I have the yellow and red building with the crane (Set #508 Birckyard) I got it in forth grade when my teacher was cleaning out the classroom at the end of the year.

BTW, my Brickshelf gallery is here

That brings back memories. I wish I had some legos now, crashing those cars was good fun.

My brother and I would compete to see who could build the better (bigger) house. But I hated "kits". I wanted to do it all free-hand. Same with cars... I wanted to make my own.

Car looks good, btw.

Moss has all my old Legos and all hte Lego these days is crap- I have many a fond memory of building mad tyte houses- and cars and doing crash tests


If there is a lego kit from the 80's I don't have then I would like to know - I think I must have had about 400 lego men as well

But mate- I salute you!!!!!!!! and a very awesome looking car as well

I don't know if anybody else had this problem - but all my lego guy's heads got stuck in the lego helmets. that and on the older ones, their faces got scratched off.
I gave all my legos (some 20lbs. or more!) to my nephew.

i dont know why, but i liked blacktron 2 more. the black and yellow didn't appeal to me..

and yeah, i had that problem too. i think that was with the older heads and helmets, the ones without the hole going straight thru the head.

also, all the paint(?) came off my original space figures, except for the guy who had the black and white jacket.
