Arlene Posted June 28, 2016 I realized only within the last week or so that a minifigure's hand is a stud. After a year of elves sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Breakdown Posted July 7, 2016 I realized only within the last week or so that a minifigure's hand is a stud. After a year of elves sets. It's okay . . . .it took me roughly 20 years to realize that the universal cargo moving logo, or shipping center logo was that. I owned 6391 as a child and thought that the logos all over the set referred to the building's ability to separate and fold into itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N-4K0 Posted July 7, 2016 I'm 27 and I only recently realized the stud function on the minifig hand as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yusaku Hayakawa Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) As a kid, I broke apart so many lego sets that they would be impossible to rebuild because I've scrambled all the pieces needed & I've lost quite a few moving house. I've destroyed a soccer stadium, basketball court, Gadunka, the temple in the fourth Indiana Jones movie & the 2008 set form of Takanuva to name the ones I regret destroying.

murphy_slaw Posted July 10, 2016 I keep buying sets because they have good parts for MOCs and then building them according to the instructions and being unwilling to disassemble them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KiltyONeal Posted July 10, 2016 I fixed a cracked pond liner by melting down a few 1x2 black plates with a soldering iron and filling the crack with the melted plastic. Worked great and after two years, it is still holding! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Littleworlds Posted July 10, 2016 I used to try to "improve" bricks and minifigs by drawing on them. I really ruined a lot of them that way Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angeli Posted July 21, 2016 I dreamt I stole a bunch of minifig parts from a kid. My racionalisation was that the kid had full floor of Lego parts, he wouldn't even miss it, let alone be aware of I was so ashamed when I woke up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-zenn Posted July 21, 2016 (edited) Whenever my nephew or friends children have their birthday, I forcely give them Lego as presents... There is no choice, there is only Lego. I'd rather give them something that will spark their imagination & creativity. Than something that's dumbed down, chewed up, spit out and regurgitated all over again.

I'd rather give them something that will spark their imagination & creativity. Than something that's dumbed down, chewed up, spit out and regurgitated all over again. I completely agree. I don't like it when small children already get something where they only have to push a button to make something happen. They will find that out soon enough and - to be honest - it just makes you lazy, when there is no effort needed to achieve a result. Lego wants to be assembled and encourages to dissemble and rebuild it. That's just a so much more empowering thing. Even something as simple as Duplo already.
