This thread is now about the awesomeness of Lego in general:
Lego is freaking awesome. I mean seriously, whoever came up with the idea is a god.
The soaring heights of victory as you attach the last piece to your work of Lego art
The crushing lows as, after around 30 minutes of playing with it, you drop it to the floor and watch, almost in slow-mo as your hard work shatters into hundreds of rectangluar pieces.
Only Lego can create such diversity of emotion.
This is true.
Is it possible for kids to grow up without a Lego kit? I remember that I used to have the gigantic blocks when I was little, and then as I graduated to higher levels of coordination the pieces became correspondingly smaller. I never liked using the directions -- I was more a fan of trying to figure it out myself, and when I got stumped, then I'd look.
I'm actually sorting out my old Lego collection now to donate to kids less fortunate, since I don't play with the blocks anymore -- you'd be surprised how tedious the work is, but not very much in life that's worth having comes free, I suppose.
A Lego Halo? Just to fit it in your living room, the scale on that would have to be like one : ten billion gazillion thousand times twenty quintillion to the tenth power.
