Heh...legos 
The perfect toy (for kids that is). In Denmark (the country where they come from) we have our own lego land. There's entire monuments made of little lego bricks. I think the largest one is made of 40-50.000.000 little pieces. Damn they must have had fun while building it. It must be the perfect place to work

I built a robot out of legos. It stands about 16" tall. I made it completely out of the 1/3 thickness bricks, so it is very strong. One time I kicked it across the room, and the worst damage was that the arm fell off.

my mom keeps trying to throw all my legos out. shes always like "but you never use them, and theyre taking up space"...are legos for our generation like baseball cards for our parents? (ive heard like 500 stories about how my grandmother threw away all my dads baseball cards cause they were just sitting around, if she hadnt wed be very rich people today)

i built a robot out of Al and 4 12v dc gearmotors. Has 8 legs and scares the hell out of the cat.

Actually lego would be a really good thing to build duildings out of, due to the ease, and lack of expertise needed to erect a lego structure...

legos kick ass. i'll admit it i was cleaning out my room and i found our giant stash. I just couldn't help but build something. it was a lot of fun and it took a while too. turns out my room didn't get much cleaner but it was an afternoon well spent

i think legos were my favorite toys, and they make you think when you use them. my fav's were the ones that looked like red lasers and the long canopys
