Yes, LegoLand Billund was the best! I remember going there as a kid. Last summer, we went and took my brother to the one in California. They did a really nice job with it, but it doesn't bring back the fond memories of driving the real life Lego go-karts and other fun rides.

Think there was a thread in Cases and Cooling forum, where some peeps built a computer case out of legos...

Love Legos. I was a mad Lego fan, but my parents never bought it for me. Always played with them at friends' houses.

I still have Lego's from when I was 10 but now that I'm 35 I have even more. I just about have all the Star Wars lego kits and some sweet technic models as well.

I loved Legos. Still play with them with my two boys.

It's fun watching them play with the same stuff that I played with as a kid.

As a kid? Hell man, 2 months ago I bought a lego-knockoff Mega Blocks skate park for 20 bucks. It rocks. Little lego dudes doing handplants on grind pipes is awesome :)

What about Waffle Blocks? Waffle Block weapons against a LEGO castle was how my cousins and I often spend our afternoons. There was one particular "gun" design we oh so loved with our Waffle Blocks...
