my sister and i, for some reason, thought it would be really funny one day while we were playing outside to take all the pirate guys and throw them at cars that were driving by. i dont know how we didnt get caught.
The one I have is over 16 years old now. It's missing the knights, the stickers, the catapult, and the canon, but yet it still remains as strong and colorful as the day I got it. Every time we moved, we didn't even consider throwing it away.
Now we put it in a pen of some new baby bunnies when we got some the other day, and they all huddled inside and fell asleep in it's plastic shelter. It's adorable
I have that same one. I remember when my parents assembled that thing when I was 4 years old. A little while after that I had this lego rocket/missile thing that, for whatever reason, I decided to take apart and put the two halves in those holes on the other side of the door, sort of behind the torch things on the front. The pieces are still there today.
man, i made my own 4 foot tall monster of a bionicle once.
i wish i had one of those lego robot things where you could program your own robot and control it. that + bionicles would be awesome
I remember getting the Exo-Toa mech suit thing for my birthday back in like 1998. It even fit Tahu like it showed on the box. It was the raddest **** ever.
And the Bohrok that could roll up into balls and shoot their brains out and had that cobra strike thing with their heads. They were the best bad guys by far.
Hoh man. I had like 12 of em. Had my 3 Toa fight em off like a Zerg Rush, then Onua stomps in with the Exo-Toa and smashes their **** .
Christmas 199X (don´t know the exact year anymore) - I wanted this thing so much that I even wished for it instead of Lego for the first time in my life...
Christmas Eve; shortly before the parents open the living room (the living room was closed for christmas, so we could see the presents and christmas-decoration for the first time on Christmas Eve), my Parents tell me: "Yeah, we sadly didn´t get the castle you wished for" - of cause I was sad as **** .
Five Minutes later: Living room opens and what do I see? A wooden ******* castle. Half as high as I was with even higher towers, big enough that me and a friend could ******* LIE DOWN in there at the same time. Completely with a dozen wooden knights with movable arms/legs, horses, a big weapons arsenal, catapult, several FUNCTIONAL Cannons, etc. It even had some parts where I could stack Lego Parts on the wooden parts, so I could built it bigger.
- completely built by hand by my grandpa, who was a carpenter.
**** , that was probably the best christmas ever and one of the reason why I can´t stay mad at my parents, often, no matter what kind of **** they pull off.
I had one when I was little that I bought with my pocket money. My dad threw it out because it was 'a toy for boys' and it would 'turn me into a dyke'.
My jimmies are still rustled. Jokes on him, I **** lassies despite him forcing barbies on me
If that's true, then I ought to thank him. In all seriousness, if I purposefully did everything he told me not to i'd be a 400 pound tracksuit wearing male with a mohawk by now.
