Welcome to the Lego Thread, many of you play Minecraft and enjoy it thoroughly. Using deductive reasoning it is safe to assume many of you also enjoy Lego. Then again, who doesn't enjoy them they are the fucking bees knees, except the price of course.
What was your first Lego set?
What was the Lego set you spent many nights dreaming about and never got?
What was the Lego set you spent many nights dreaming about and got and it was the greatest day ever?
What is your favorite set?
Technic or System?
Your fondest memories with Lego?
Random pictures of awesome creations?
These are examples of the many things we can discuss as a wonderful internet family. Let me begin.
My first Lego experience was probably in Armenia when I was young, four maybe. We had group of Lego system pieces and I probably spent weeks with them. Now this is during the end of the Soviet collapse and everyone in the country was very poor so we couldn't afford awesome sauce sets or anything. When my dad went to Germany for work he got my bro and I two Lego Technic sets for Christmas. Shit was so cash and you can imagine how happy we were. We hauled those sets with us to France, Russia and eventually the United States were they now rest in my room, minus a few pieces.
The one I got, at the time it was awesome, but the problem with Lego Technic sets is that their specific pieces make creating your own models harder.
My favorite sets that I actually got would be these two. One they look awesome, two the pieces given to you allow for maximum creativity. I fashioned both models with a motor once, that is a fun exercise, put motors on sets that are not suppose to have motors (so frustrating).
And with motors attached

The Hailfire droid with motors kind of failed as the motors lagged on carpet and the droid didn't go as fast as I wanted it to, even if I adjusted gear ratios.
When I was in the 3rd or 4th grade we were subscribed to the Lego magazine, and EVERY issue had one set at the back that I wanted so bad. So so bad, and I never got it, and now it costs $500 to $1000. If I got it now, I would probably faint from joy.
1300 pieces of spacey goodness, *drooooool*
I also wanted this one pretty bad before the x-wing. (didn't get it
)
Anyway I've written enough, if you want to find a specific set this might help
http://brickset.com/ or just Google key words describing the set
