It's LEGO's 50th Anniversary!
I was playing with this stuff back in the '60s. I had buckets of it. Used to build airplanes and boats mostly. Some of my boats were four and five feet long. Ok, they were only six inches wide, but they were still five feet long, with cranes and helicopters and all sorts of junk happening.
I had the first LEGO train set, the first electric motor. It was great. Absolutely, hands down, the greatest toy ever conceived. (Followed closely by the original GI Joes, which went well with LEGO.)
