Ahh, Legos, probably my favorite thing to do along with cooking and adventuring. Why do I like Legos so much? Well, for starters you can build just about any thing you want with a bucket of Legos and some imagination. I also like them because they’re educational and last a long time compared to other toys. If you have a lot of Lego bricks you could even build a Lego city! You can get Lego sets from just about any where toys are sold from Toys R Us to the Lego stores. So how did lego become the number 1 toy company in the world? One of the main reasons is that Lego managed to capture a way of toys that no company has. Plus the Lego minifigures add a nice touch.
Here’s some cool sets:
Captain Rex’s AT-TE– A great set with awesome Minifigures
New York City– A great architectural starter set.
AT-ST Walker– A great set for all ages with a few tricky parts to keep it interesting. The down side is the legs don’t works very well.
Imperial Assault Hover Tank– A semi small set that is inexpensive. One of my personal favorites.
Imperial Shuttle Tydirium– A larger set from the original Star Wars Trilogy.
Van and Caravan– If you are going to build a city I highly recommend this set.
Imperial Assault Carrier– A large set with a tons of moving parts. A little on the expensive end though.
Here’s some Lego books for inspiration:
The Lego ideas book– A great book for for all ages and abilities!
365 thing to do with Lego Bricks– Another great book for inspiration but doesn’t have very big models.
The Lego Play Book– A great book that’s a lot like the lego ideas book!
Or if you’re like me you might enjoy building with just a bucket of Lego bricks. So why not get a handful of Legos and let your imagination run freely? If you think your model is really really good you could even put it on Lego Ideas and it could one day become a set! Tell me what you’ve build in the comment section right below this post!
