    Remember when Lego™ used to be about building whatever the fuck you wanted, and not trying to follow a specific set of instructions, or replicate some media franchise?

    Do a an M[c]S search of “lego” and tell me this one doesn’t look like it was, by far, the most fun:

    I can’t think of a single set that didn’t have some kind of set of instructions in it on building a specific thing. I always built that first then built whatever I wanted. Especially the huge yellow castle with the horses that were Picasso looking things made of a stack of bricks. That thing was awesome.

    The licensing thing, though, is kind of crazy. I WANT to buy the ATAT kit and make it. As much as lego kits cost, I don’t think the licensing actually adds that much to the cost, just make it easier to sell huge kits to parents as well as kids.

    They may have already started making theme-kits even when I was a young’un, but the ones I remember distinctly were my first ones: the kits that had only rectangular bricks, in only six colors (red, blue, green, yellow, white, black), with peg-patterns ranging from one to twelve pegs, and always the same 1/2-inch thickness. The kits were anywhere from 50 to a few hundred pieces, with only the picture on the box and maybe a pamphlet inside showing what you could make with that particular kit.

    Even the ones that weren’t specifically themed always had instructions for 1 or 2 things to make. My kids usually put together the pic that was on the box, then immediately tore it down and did more interesting projects.

    I was briefly confused about why the creator gave Marty a big gun. Then I realized that it’s a video camera, and that piece is supposed to represent a video camera. For some reason, my LEGO creations called for a BFG a lot more often than a camera. Also, I like what they did with the radio; I’ve done similar things myself.
