I’m 38 and literally just last week as we’re cleaning out our apartment after a few family members moved out, I came across a box of my childhood Lego. This stuff is all literally 25+ years old, and some of it is 30+ years old. Unfortunately, they are not whole sets and there are no instructions. Just a mix of random pieces. Still pretty cool to find that though.

I really have been enjoying the botanicals, so this set was on my radar  
@TryCatchThrow nice grab on the Auspicious Dragon. Beautiful set.

The Auspicious Dragon was on sale at Costco, which often gets a small collection of sets but they’re usually on a really good discount.

I managed to hold on to all my Legos from childhood in the early 80’s, through young adulthood in the 2000’s. They are now covering my kids’ floor.

Lego when I was a kid were a different thing. **They were just blocks** and required some imagination. I still have them.

Reminds me of something my dad told me. He said when he was a kid, he used to play with a brick. Joking it was his best friend. He imagined it was a car or whatever. Sometimes he would pretend he had more bricks and it was a train.

Seeing what Legos have become, I understand what he was telling me.
