Not that there's anything wrong with it. I do myself sometimes just with the ones I have left. Just wondering if anyone else still does.

I don't and haven't for a long time but once the Harry Potter Lego sets come out I plan to get one of those. So not general building as much as putting together a set.

I wish I had the time. That would be friggin sweet. I will probably just wait 'til I have kids and build stuff with them so that I don't look like a goof.

I'm 19. I was playing with them when I was playing with my neighbor's kids. I ended up building a 3.5" x 4" x 5 ft Lego tower (don't ask why). Then we destroyed it just for fun. :P

That's why I still like Legos, you can build huge stuff and then destroy it just for fun.

I still have the ones I got when I was a kid though I haven't built anything with them in some time, but I did get this hauler which can also be made into a rollback tow truck.

I have a few times since I have been over 18. I would do it more often if the sets were not so expensive at times

The last thing I built out of Legos was this, of course this is not a picture of my finished version. That was lost the last time I moved

I see those a lot and while it is quite amazing what it can do, I still prefer the classic ones. Probably just because of my own sentimentality towards them...

I may not be 18 yet but I will still build with Legos from time to time. Like, say, it's Christmas and younger cousin of mine got a Lego set as a gift. The first thing that anybody does when they get a Lego set is to give it to me; I can put those things together really fast.

Seriously?

I also heard that the developers of the original MGS built their levels using lego's first to check if their level designs were feasible. I might be making that up, because I can't remember where I remember that from.

I haven't played with Lego since I was about 8 maybe 9.

But it looks like a lot of people do as over 400 Billion lego pieces have been sold and they make 20 Billion a year.

Mine is all in the loft and i don't really have the space ATM. I would use it if i had the space and spare cash to buy a huge amount of standard blocks. I used to make very structural models, they were never pretty but tended to defy gravity in some way. May end up with some Mindstorms gear at some point, it's quite popular with Uni students for messing about with robotics, a lot easier and cheaper than using steel.

Don't blame me, I didn't start this topic, just added to it. :twisted:

At least I will be working for a couple of months this fall so I can buy them. This summer was a bit scarce as far as work went. At least I get paid to drive and sleep in hotels.

I remember my friend and I took all my brother's Lego ships he built himself (he had like 20) and smashed them against my dresser. Good times, good times.:P

If I had the time, and plenty of Legos my house would be made of Legos. :P

Then I would build Lego furniture inside my Lego house.
