My mom sent me a parcel and in said parcel was a little box of Legos. It was an outdoor baking thing...complete with cake.
She usually gets someone to pick up a cake for me but this year my roomie was going to make one.
So she unintentionally sends me a Lego cake.
I nearly died. What an awesome coincidence..xD
Ooo..yeah..stepping on them is not fun at all.
I wish you could still buy those sets with a million pieces. They don't seem to have a lot of that out anymore. Like the forts you used to be able to buy.
Finally, a thread about LEGO made by someone other than me! xD
I love my LEGO to death <3
Boyfriend & I are planning on building a big LEGO Kingdom when we move in together
There are still some really big sets, but they're stupid-expensive, and themed.
There's the Medieval Market Village, 1,604 pieces.
The Millennium Falcon - one that's $180 and 1254 pieces, and an "ultimate" one that's 5,195 pieces and was $500
The Death Star - $500 and it's 3,803 pieces
My brother used to have a Lego city built in our living room. Only a couple of the things were mine...
Had fire/police department, grocery store, airport, post office, gas stations, houses, roads...
I'd say it was at least 8 feet long, haha.
I never had any specific buildings aside from the little pizza place. I do have a ton of bulk bricks, though. I recall attempting to build castles out of them several times.
From the sounds of things, my boyfriend used to have a ton of LEGO, but sold/gave it to his uncle, who has proceeded to build a huge castle xD
Irony - my boyfriend was telling me last night that when he was little he used to build guns and carry them around with him everywhere. But apparently he built things that'd go around his forearm and...I don't even know for sure, it just sounds fricken' adorable
Irony:
That's probably what my boyfriend did, too.
Makes me really wish we'd known each other as little kids
Totally still would've been best friends xDDD
Keth:
I never thought about making a pyramid.
I probably would've tried to build a solid base for every level, though.
Would've run out of bricks so fast xD
