Why do LEGO toys have value to you?
First, because the first toy I ever had was a Free Style Set and then because it has influenced my modus vivendi: I'm about to study for become an architect, I draw and design guiding myself in lego colors and forms, all my life is Lego!!!
What makes LEGO brand construction toys worth your money?
The concept about creating own designs in such easy but at the same time ingeniously and even complicated ways, the forms, the colors, the pieces, the fun!!!! *satis*
In what way has the LEGO brand let you down?
1.- In recent years, TLC has breen creating the good stuff for little children, forgetting about the teenagers and AFOLs all around the world!!!!!
2.- The extremely <insert that tiresome argument> pieces in the System Sets, the ones we (AFOLs) can purchase and the fact that these pieces are just for nothing, you can't use UFO's plates for creating Star Wars space ships, but the Star Wars pieces can be used in almost everything.
3.- The Colors' Change: I loved the fact that they've changed them but they haven't released sets with "general" pieces of these new colors, only the ones that are <insert that tiresome argument>
4.- The cut from the boxes' beautiful art designs that for years distinguished the lego sets, for example, the desert in the Pharao's Forbbiden Ruins and the Chinese Valleys from Orient Expedition's Dragon Fortress, which were cut by the horrible blue brand. Also the Harry Potter Sets from Prisoner of Azkaban (Hagrid's Hut and Draco's encounter) had beautiful views of the grounds and the castle, also Hogsmeade in the Shrieking Shak set, but you can't see more than the blue thing lets you!!!!!!!!
5.- What about the Historic function of Lego Sets?
