What the fuck happened to Legos?

[BoneCrusher]

I think it is a safety measure, when you were small you could do everything with Legos because all you wanted to build was cars, helicopters and castles. Kids today play violent video games, if you give them the chance to build everything they want they will only build guns, knives and grenades with Legos. That is why they can build only specific objects.

Sadly, they build these specific items, then fight over them and beat each over the head with them. We really cannot escape our natures.

I remember the bucket of many lego pieces. Those were great. I also remember the sets you could buy, and even use those as you wished to make sick custom stuff. As KelJu said, now they make that stupid star wars and harry potter shit. Does anybody remember those badass space sets they used to make? The only name I can remember is Space Police. But there was also the set where the little guys had that 'E' on them. I remember having an Ice set too.
The parts for those were so cool. They had neon parts that were like lasers, boosters, and aircraft shields.
I found some of my legos a while back and made this truck with working I-beam suspension up front and trailing arms for the back. The dental floss were the limit straps.

Yeah I was into the smace set stuff. I had the space monorail lego set with the train and shit. You could build anything with those.
