Odd question... legos

How many of you played with legos as a kid?

And those of you who did... did you just build what the insturctions told you and leave it, or did you build your own things?


I want everyone to respond , i'm trying to prove a theory.


BTW - i did, and i built my own ****.

Alright.....didn't see that coming.

Yep, In fact, I think I still got big *** footlockers full of em in my basement somewhere.. haha.

I'd build the stuff with the instuctions first, then tear it apart and build my own stuff.

I have a **** load of them back at home... I built both, sometimes I took the **** apart also... right before I got out of the phase, I started building cars, and Adric still has the one I built.

I think Adric has everyone beat on the collection tho haha.

i loved legos they were the ****!! I remember i was building a monster truck, got half way through the instructions and made the rest all by myself and it turned out better than the pic but i had left over pieces... other than that i never followed instruction and "built my own ****"

I had TONS of lego's. I would build per the instructions and leave it like that for a long time. Then later go back and build my own things. But whenever I built anything everything had to line up in certian directions and like on the pirate ships and such there had to be an equal amount of people on both sides and such. Sorry but if something isn't lined up it absolutly drives me crazy. Growing up I would clean my room everyday and once a week I'd take absolutly everything out and clean all the corners, under the bed, and such.

I did both.
My brothers and I had a ton of sets and we would play with them once they were all together as they were meant to be.I think my favorite were the space ones.
After awhile though we just started making our own creations.
