Legos!

ZebraRampage · 08-05-2004, 12:02 AM

Hmm..I was just looking at the Brick Testament site that Dylflon posted, and it reminded me of all the fun I had with legos. I wish that someday they will make sets that represent the French Revolution! Guillotuine oh yeah! That could be interesting. Well anyway, if you used to have legos when you were younger, which sets did you collect? Which were your favorite sets?

As for me, I used to collect Aquazone sets. I believe there are 21 total, and I have 18 of them. I didn't get a few of the later ones, but the first ones were the best anyway. My favorite set to look at was that huge Pirate Ship. It think it was called the Barracuda. I plan on buying it one day off of ebay or something. I still have all of my lego sets packaged up too. Maybe I should build them again.

Ah, I found a picture of it.

Black Seas Barracuda

Then there's this other cool ship.

My friend had that second one.

I had a smaller pirate ship.
I had a couple of castles and stuff.

At the closing era of my lego days I had a bunch of the samurai lego.
I also had the jungle/pirate sets.

A lot of miscellaneous legos.

As a kid did you fellows/fems say, "I want to play legos" or "I want to play with my lego" ?

I always said the latter. My friends always said the former. I hated them for it.

Oh yes the good old days of lego. I remember them well. I remember that earlier this year me and my friend planned a movie based around a lego story we made. Good times. Good times.

I saw somewhere someguy had customized his lego to look like metal gear stuff. Like Snake and Ninja. And a couple of the gears. I'll try and find the pictures.

I had the Explorien sets.

I has others as well but this one was one of my favorite themes.

That site has basically every lego set. Just look in the themed section, and you'll find what you want. I really wish I had pirate and space sets. The space sets worth getting are probably Blacktron 1 and 2, Exploriens, Ice Planet, MTron, Space Police 1 and 2, and Unitron. Those would be great to get. My cousin, who is 4 years older than me, used to make his own sets out of the Space Police 2 and Mtron sets, and they were really cool. Those legs are very versatile.

Okay well I couldn't find the exact picture but I found some other interesting Metal Gear Solid lego. Custom made.

Oh god. So many lego I had.. I had the old brick sets. I also had a pirate set when I first moved to BC. It was the island prison set.

Lego Technic was cool. I had a bigfoot

, a chopper a buggy and some smaller things.

1. I never had any sets, I built my own stuff (which usually wasn't very creative) but I did have one space vehicle/work truck set. I think it started out as a work truck but I modified it a little.

2. I always said, "I want to play with legos."

D-Man · 08-05-2004, 04:28 PM

Hehe, I have the first ship, but I'm missing a couple of pieces

. I have some other random one, mostly Exploriens and Space ones. I loved those. *goes visit lego site*

Acebot44 · 08-05-2004, 04:50 PM
