41. Calling all Classic Space Gurus!!!

    

    

    Discussion by SupraTT · March 2015 · Home› Collecting

    Hey guys! What's up?! I'm a new member (Hello everyone!) and was wanting to get some help going through some old Legos from my childhood/my uncles childhood that I just got from my parents recently. Like most, I actually hadn't thought of a Lego in years, and finally got out the totes that I had in my house that housed…

44. Re: New boxes revisited

    

    Comment by jwsmart · May 2011 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    After nearly all of the boxes from my childhood (including my box for the 6990 Mission Commander) were destroyed in a flood, I made a conscious decision to ditch the boxes for the new sets I've gotten. They take up a lot of room, even when flattened, and the smaller boxes just don't flatten well (they never have, going…

    @jason1976 Thanks! Yes I believe I have already seen that clip, or there might even be more clips where they visit the fault/Lego archive. Great nostalgia! Didn't National Geographic also do a Lego documentary a couple of years ago?! That space monorail #6990 , and that #928 or/and #497 Space Cruiser are so cool, and…

46. Re: Do LEGO pieces "age" over time?

    

    Comment by mathew · June 2013 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    Cracking is a definite problem with recent Lego bricks. I see it primarily on cheese slopes and 1x1 bricks, but on others as well. I know there is disagreement, but I find that older bricks feel more rigid and solid than newer ones. I have a few classic space sets from the 80's and aside from some loss of clutch and…

    Using "2 cents" as a disclaimer doesn't exempt the unsolicited valuation and opinions that we've asked people to curb in marketplace threads. @LFT and @y2josh, you should know better. I'm not going to remove the comments as if the goal is to pull the wool over anyone's eyes. Instead, I would like to offer an opposing view:…

48. Re: What Are Your LEGO-Related Goals For 2015?

    

    Comment by cheshirecat · November 2015 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    
Done - really pleased with myself. Cut out all the uninspired fluff (polys, theme filler) that I can live without, focused on a smaller number of really nice sets. Can count on one ok two hands the number of new sets I've bought this year and that even includes christmas presents (sorry kids). Edit - I've just been…

49. US/UK Set Naming

    

    Discussion by cheshirecat · March 2016 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    So thanks to Huw (and Alice) work I was looking through the old catalogues of my childhood and noticed how different the names are for the different sets. Its a mixed bag, some of the US I prefere (Stardefender 200 for example) but some are really terrible (Monorail Transport System) and some UK names feel more sensible…

50. Re: How did you get started with LEGO?

    

    Comment by klatu003 · March 2014 · Home› Collecting

    When I was a child in the 50s, Lego was not sold in the US; I had Tinkertoys. My son loved Lego and we bought lots of space sets including #6990 for a special birthday, but I was not invited to play except to apply the stickers! In our later years, my husband and I stopped exchanging gifts (it was like an arms race - LOL)…
