Im busy alot so not much time but i got back into lego some 4 years ago after a solid 5 year break while traveling the states.
Anyways i spent a few hrs sorting all of what i had and took me about 2 months. Some things i still dont have fully sorted. I dont quite have the number of contaners needed for proper sorting nor the room for such containers atm, so things are very slow going i do have some old Lego boxes that i use for the sorting process.
One being the largest explorians box for the big cruiser. Another being both sides of the aquanaughts base box. Sturdy and still usefull. Those old boxes from the 90s just cant be beat imho.
Ive had alot to sort through including old megabloks stuff that i had to sort out once i decided to take a more... (Lego only) type attitude. I still like the megabloks stuff as some things have more detail.. but i decided if i cant do it with what lego has supplied then im probably not doing it right. So i am taking it as a personal challange to use only what is official lego. With no custom parts.
I hold no ill will to any who use any custom stuff it all looks great. But i do have one pet peave.. and thats altering parts to fit in ways they couldnt. There is a lot of old parts no longer in production that are becoming more and more rare. And i just hope i get the parts i need for the things i have planned.
Im still rediscovering some old parts i had not really thought of using since i got them. Lol.
