Normally I'm for these kinds of rediscovering your childhood things. But you could just buy a Richard Scarry book (may I recommend What do People do All Day?) for like $15. And more importantly putting these things together took a lot of time.

And if I can have a heartfelt sentimental moment with you dramanauts, that's time you should be spending with your kids...

...wait WTF?

:#marseyshook:

Lego is the only toy franchise that actually made a movie that will bring you together with your kids and that's not enough for you?

I've legit had friendly conversations with a guy with facial tatoos who says he's going to get off fent now because of his 3rd kid and I give him 50/50 of it working better than this. And I put on the news every day and I got quarterwits like Antony Blinken and Anne-Marie Slaughter and John Bolton on there telling me how the world should work. In the past we thought it would be nuclear weapons that would destroy our civilization. No. It's just r-slurs.

You maniacs! You voted for these r-slurs, and then you voted for Democrat r-slurs, and then even more r-slurred r-slurs.

:#marseycontemplatesuicide:

!followers If you had any idea what despair I'm in that these people are running our country. Unironically I could put together people I vaguely remember from school in 5 minutes to be a better national security team than this. I just want the world to be destroyed. Just leave it to the apes.

I mean for frick's sake the ending of The Planet of the Apes at least had a little goddarn dignity. I guess it hits a little too close to home. That vapid stare from Nova, it's like trying to get one of you tards to open a goddarn file on your computer.

"You finally really did it."

Is he talking about nuclear war or zoomers deciding to become r-slurred animals and lose the power of reason? I don't think Rod Serling would have wasted this much time writing about nothing.

Some kids in the family love legos, but it was a real pain in the butt getting them something for Christmas because I wanted to get them something non-branded…like knights or pirates or underwater. Literally nothing in the shop was unbranded besides a friends line for little girls, which didn't have anything by imaginative. I looked at every box for sale and behind boxes. So I bought some Harry Potter and Star Wars out of no choice, but it was a really dumb experience.

Apparently they have a handful of non-branded sets like a castle, but they're not promoted, are big extra expensive sets, and basically online only. Bah Humbug. :marseylaptopchud:

When I was a kid, literally no one built what was on the packaging which is what made it so fun. Make your own space ships and shit, I frickin loved Legos man

The kits are great to follow sometimes, but yeah, you're right that the bigger thing about the kits was that it gave you special pieces to use when you made your own stuff. Cannons, doorways, the clear blue for space windows…

That's exactly why I wanted non branded stuff. So the kids could make their own builds without every other special piece being branded and limiting creativity

I passed by a lego section, and it was all dark and dismal because the theme was Marvel superheroes. It was so lame compared to my bog standard legos as a child. It was pretty basic, but I built my own towns and made my own stories and characters. all I needed was imagination :marseymoreyouknow: to have fun.

I wonder if that stunts zoomers' mental growth.

Zoomers had Minecraft.

Probably why Lego pivoted to tie ins because that took the building something out of cubes market, I mean Lego has physicality but it's also expensive and space consuming.

Lego has been focused on themed sets since at least the early 2000s. You only need to buy the regular bricks once, they need to keep making money somehow.

I agree that catering to adult fans has resulted in higher prices and less creativity
